Both vinyl and metal are very popular siding options, and it’s important to weigh the pros and cons of each before making a decision for your home. Vinyl has a lower price point than metal and is easier to install, but metal siding is more durable, longer-lasting, and requires much less maintenance. The upfront costs could save you money in the long run.

It is possible to restore vinyl siding, as it’s known to fade in color with exposure to the elements. Worse, the fading isn’t always uniform around the house. Making a siding repair that’s 100% invisible is difficult, if not impossible. You can get close to perfect, but not always. 

However, if you have significant discoloration, wish to change the color of your house, or want to put off replacement for a year, you’re not entirely out of luck. You may be surprised to learn that you can paint your vinyl siding with good results, although not incredibly long-lasting.

While any dark color of vinyl is likely to fade, dark red and dark brown vinyl tend to fade faster and more noticeably compared with other dark colors. White is the color least likely to fade, but it will show stains, mildew, and dirt more prominently than darker colors.
