Vinyl siding has found its way into much popularity in the past few years, and for good reason. With its toughness acting as a primary advantage, vinyl siding is one of the most durable materials you can use for siding on your home, especially in areas where the weather has a huge effect on items such as this. In New England and Massachusetts, in particular, we have seen the weather take some violent turns this season, such as when the weather can go from being very warm to snow within a few hours.

Longevity of Vinyl Siding

Due to the way that it is made, vinyl is one of the siding materials which is the most resistant to almost all elements. These include the following:

• Heat
• Cold
• Moisture
• Winds lower than 110 mph

With the look of wood siding, vinyl provides all the important benefits that wood cannot, without any of the maintenance required.

Maintenance & Life Span

The maintenance can be a huge pain when you get sidings, such as wood siding, or cedar, or fiber cement. Having to constantly clean that amount of surface area can be very difficult. With vinyl siding there is little to no maintenance, the material never needs to be painted and it can maintain a fresh and new look with one wash a year.

Warranties can vary depending on the manufacturer, as well as the thickness of the vinyl siding. These warranties typically run 20-40 years, but some manufacturers have been making vinyl siding with a lifetime guarantee, which can be transferred to the next owner of the home.

In a short answer: Vinyl siding can last you a very long time, which can range from 20 years, all the way through a lifetime.
