Care and Maintenance

BEAUTY. DURABILITY. SUSTAINABILITY.

There are many attributes of today’s vinyl siding that drive its success as the most popular exterior cladding, and low maintenance is likely the one homeowners value most. Vinyl siding is the exterior cladding that demands the least amount of time and resources to maintain. And to time-starved homeowners, they’ll gladly have one less thing to worry about!

ENGINEERED TO LAST

The goal is simple. Homeowners want their siding to look great for as long as possible, with as little effort as possible.

A BEAUTIFUL LOOK WITHOUT THE EFFORT.

Today’s vinyl siding offers all the character and charm of wood siding without maintenance worries, rotting, splitting or insect damage. And vinyl siding never needs paint. Unlike other exterior cladding, vinyl siding only requires simple, periodic cleaning with mild soap and a garden hose. Minimal maintenance does more than save time, it saves money. With fewer materials to purchase, vinyl siding reduces the life cycle cost of maintaining the home.

EASY TO CLEAN

Vinyl siding is easily cleaned with a soft cloth or soft bristle brush. For textured surfaces, the brush keeps the grooves in the texture stain-free. Small spots of mold and mildew are a breeze to clean with common cleaners such as Fantastik® or Windex®. For larger sections, many homeowners use a solution of vinegar (30%) and water (70%) with great results.
