Get matched with top vinyl siding cleaning pros in Red Lick, TX

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.

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.

Not only is vinyl siding recyclable, but it’s also reusable. If your siding is in good condition after removal, you can save money on new siding and have it reapplied. It’s recommended that you clean vinyl siding once a year, but you should give it an extra wash in between uses. If your siding is damaged, small holes and cracks can be fixed with a caulk gun. For extensive damages, it’s better to drop off your vinyl siding at your local recycling center.

Painting faded siding is more budget-friendly than replacing it, but depending on how old your siding is and whether it’s sustained damage beyond fading, it may be a better idea to replace old, faded siding. Vinyl siding that’s 20 years old or more is nearing the end of its lifespan, and painting may freshen up its appearance, but it won’t buy you much more time before the siding needs to be replaced.
