Siding FAQ

WILL SIDING CRACK OR FADE?

Yes, over time it will fade just like anything else in the sun for a long period of time. Usually, it will take 10-15 years to show signs of fading. Cracking of the siding can occur due to impacts on the siding or rapidly temperature changes. But we use a .044 thickness of siding.

HOW OFTEN DO I NEED TO REPLACE SIDING?

If it is a good vinyl siding maybe 20-40 years. You will need to do some up keep on it like semi-frequent cleaning and minor repairs overtime to keep it looking good.

IS A FULL SIDING JOB THE ONLY OPTION?

It depends on the age of siding. If the siding is new and the brand/style/color is still around and only a side needs to be replaced due to damage, then just the one can be replaced. But I would do a full re-side so everything is the same and you probably want a new color or style anyway to freshen up the look of your home.

WHAT SIDING MATERIAL DO YOU RECOMMEND USING?

The siding we use is a .044" thickness vinyl siding.

IS THERE MAINTENANCE INVOLVED AFTER A SIDING JOB?

Yes, I would clean your siding semi-frequently.

I am very happy with the work done by Shaine and his employees. Our roof was done very quickly, maybe the first one on our street. They did a good job on the siding and windows, and the little stuff (less important) was finally finished too. The staff was always polite, helpful and responsive. I am happy we choose them among so many vying for our business after the storm.

We had Veterans Choice Contracting replace our roof. They were very knowledgeable from my call requesting a quote, to Todd doing the estimate, to doing the roof. They did an excellent job with the new roof and site clean up. The 4 men who did the work were very kind and worked efficiently to complete the job. I would highly recommend Veterans Choice Contracting to anyone looking to have a new roof put on.

Had storm damage, came right out with a very detailed estimate and help negotiate with my horrible home insurance. This company cares and you can tell they are military veterans with the integrity they display.
