Vinyl siding is a popular choice for many reasons. It’s one of the most affordable siding options on the market today. It’s resilient, sleek, needs no painting or staining, and requires very little maintenance. But in winter especially, homeowners have several reasons to appreciate their vinyl siding. As temperatures start to drop and winter storms start to hit Kansas City, it is essential to have home siding that can protect your home and hold up for years to come. Here are just a few benefits homeowners enjoy with vinyl siding installation.
Easy Installation
Exterior remodeling projects during winter can seem a bit daunting, but vinyl siding installations are among the easiest, no matter the home. Installers can even install vinyl siding over existing siding. During winter, you don’t want the exterior of your home to be vulnerable for any length of time. With vinyl siding, it doesn’t have to be, and the installation will be finished before you know it.
Low Maintenance
No one likes outdoor chores during winter. We prefer to stay indoors when the weather turns cold, and there’s no dread like having to go outside to shovel snow out of the driveway in the middle of winter. You certainly don’t want to have to worry about doing exterior home maintenance in winter, and when it comes to the siding, you won’t have to. Once installed, vinyl siding requires very little upkeep. Its smooth exterior is unlikely to hold on to dirt and debris, and the color stays fresh and bright without painting or staining. Vinyl is a resilient material, so it can stand up against storms and freezing temperatures without you having to worry about costly repairs.
Energy Efficient
Vinyl is great at holding the indoor temperature in while keeping extreme outdoor temperatures out. As the temperatures start to drop to an all-time-low, your vinyl siding will keep your home warm and comfortable with no winter draft. And because you won’t have to crank up the heat to keep your home warm, vinyl siding could save you hundreds of dollars in HVAC and energy costs. Energy efficient vinyl siding is also a good way to reduce your carbon footprint.
A Quiet Refuge
Vinyl siding is known for its foam backing, which not only provides terrific home insulation but soundproofing for the interior of the home. When snowstorms hit, or carolers are a little too persistent, you can stay in and watch your favorite movies in peace. This benefit to vinyl siding will come in handy all year long, but it’s certainly appreciated in winter.
