Which House Has Vinyl Siding?

Posted by: Ken Mariotti

Can you pick the home that does not have vinyl siding, from the photos below? Only one home from the line up does not have vinyl siding – the rest do.

Your brain is checking off all the things you've heard about vinyl siding. If Danny DeVito, in the movie Tin Man pops into your head, well that was aluminum siding, not vinyl.  What you think you know about vinyl siding. It only comes in white. It looks flimsy. It's for tract houses. It's inexpensive. It doesn't look like wood.

If that’s your criteria, you’ll be hard pressed to identify the house without vinyl siding. Everything you thought you knew about vinyl siding is about to be turned on its head, except perhaps for one thing, it’s less expensive than most other siding choices and that is still true.

Multiple colors

Premium vinyl products such as Prodigy® by Alside come in twenty-one classic and contemporary colors to choose from, like Coastal Sage, Tuscan Clay or Charcoal Smoke. Oh, and it comes in white as well – Glacier White. Like a custom painted home, you can match, blend or contrast your color palate.

Solid look and feel

Interlocking impact resistant panels and 1 ½” thick insulation provide the energy efficiency you find in modern materials available for home building today. These aren’t the hollow panels of yesteryear.

Clean look of wood

Today the finely milled products can extend up to 16’ 8” lengths yielding clean lines and an elegant modern style. You can have the look of natural wood without face nailing or caulking.

Stay true to your home’s style

Unlike the plain vinyl siding of the past, you home won’t look like a tract home; rather you can stay true to your home’s style when you replace the siding. Trim and decorative accents can be used at windows, doors, outside corners, gable ends or wherever you want to create a special look. You can choose colors to perfectly complement or contrast the trim with the siding.

Going green

It’s true, today Alside even offers siding products like Charter Oak® with thermal foam and reflective technologies recognized as green products by the industry.
