It’s almost always more affordable to repair vinyl siding. It costs an average of $3 to $12 per square foot to install new vinyl siding.

Use a siding calculator to determine square footage and estimate the costs of both options.

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.

Matching new vinyl siding to your old siding can be challenging. Vinyl siding fades over time due to sun exposure, so even a new panel of the exact same color may not be a perfect match; this is often more noticeable with darker colors. Additionally, manufacturers frequently update their products, which can lead to older siding styles and colors being discontinued, making an exact match difficult to find.

For the best chance at an accurate match, try to purchase the same model and color of siding that is currently on your home. If a perfect match isn't available or if fading is an issue, you have a few options. Cleaning the original siding can sometimes help, or you can consider painting your existing siding to create a uniform appearance with the new panels.
