Beadboard is not outdated and can be seen in many homes throughout the country. It is a classic design element that, while seen more commonly in cottage-style homes, is a relatively inexpensive way to add an immense amount of character to a room. If you have popcorn ceilings or flat drywall, consider either adding a full beadboard ceiling or installing coffered framing over your existing ceiling texture.

It’s possible to match new vinyl to your old siding, but it can be difficult. First, vinyl siding fades in the sunlight, so even after a few years, it may have a markedly different appearance than its original color. Second, the composition and manufacturing techniques of vinyl siding are always being updated, which means older vinyl siding is discontinued quite frequently. That increases the chances you won’t be able to match the exact color and design of your previous siding.

Caulking should be re-applied roughly every five years. It's natural for a home to settle and separate caulking from joints, so it's a good idea to assess the home every two years. A consistent siding maintenance schedule will help you see if the caulking is needed and address any potential issues before they occur.
