Whether vinyl siding needs to be replaced or repaired depends on the severity of its damage or wear and tear. For example, a small hole can be repaired, where large tears may need to be replaced. Cracks, chips, insect damage, loose pieces, and melted side panels are clear signs that the vinyl siding needs to be removed or replaced. It’s relatively easy to learn how to replace vinyl siding, as it’s lightweight and manageable.

Vinyl is lightweight, easy to install, durable, and long-lasting, and as long as a professional installs it, it should remain waterproof for several decades to keep your home protected. It can hold out against extreme weather conditions, and it doesn’t make a nice home for any sort of insects. Plus, vinyl is affordable and comes in a variety of looks and colors. When it comes to board and batten siding, vinyl is one of the most affordable material options.

Insulated vinyl siding is very durable and can last for 20 to 40 years. The extra support that the insulation provides helps to make the vinyl siding less susceptible to damages from weather and other minor wear and tear. Vinyl siding on its own may  be less durable than other types of siding like fiber cement, but when coupled with insulation it is stronger than usual.

Purchasing the same model and color of siding that your home currently has gives you the best chance at an accurate match. However, even if you purchase replacement siding from the same manufacturer, fading often causes a slight color mismatch. Dark colored siding fades faster than light colored siding, so you may notice a color mismatch more with dark colors. When trying to learn how to restore faded vinyl siding, cleaning the original siding is a good start. You also may be able to paint your existing siding to create a better match with the new siding.
