How Long Does Vinyl Siding Last?

Designed to withstand winds of 110 mph or higher, vinyl siding is built to protect homes from the elements. The weathering effects of heat, cold, and moisture are no match for properly installed certified vinyl siding, which is designed to retain its great looks for life. Guaranteed.

Built For Everyday Enjoyment

Vinyl siding is continually innovating to ensure long-term durability. Multiple attachment points create superior weather protection. Advanced UV-resistant coatings resist fading, helping even dark colors remain vibrant for years.

A Lifetime of Vinyl Siding

Vinyl siding manufacturers generally offer a lifetime warranty to the original homeowner and the product typically carries a prorated warranty of at least 50 years to subsequent owners.

All this protection is paired with the benefits of never needing to paint, stain, caulk, or re-paint!

Insulated Vinyl Siding Increases Durability

Vinyl siding built with pre-installed insulation is tested and verified to deliver higher R-Values to help decrease energy loss through walls. Insulated vinyl siding is highly durable, ensures unmatched protection, and provides thermal performance that lasts for years and years.

See The Difference

Polymeric exterior product performance eclipses traditional materials like wood, fiber cement, stucco or even brick.

Energy Efficiency

Insulated siding adds a thermal layer to help homes stay cool in summer and warm in winter.

Exceptional Moisture Management

Polymeric siding products, including vinyl and polypropylene siding, provide exceptional rain screening performance—helping moisture drain out of the exterior wall assembly and dramatically reducing water accumulation. The EPS material used in insulated vinyl siding also allows the wall system to breathe and drain efficiently and will not absorb moisture. That’s important because climate change is producing heavier, more frequent rainfall in many regions.

Polymeric Siding vs. Moisture

Unlike fiber cement, brick, and wood, polymeric siding does not absorb, hold or accumulate moisture, which helps prevent rot, mold and poor indoor air quality.
