When it comes time to replace the siding on the house, it can be hard to decide which type to install with all of the options available. One thing you may want to consider is Mastic Siding Installation in Milwaukee Wisconsin. There are a number of benefits to this type of siding.
Low Cost
It’s easy to install vinyl siding, so the new siding will be installed faster and at a lower cost if you opt for Mastic Siding Installation in Milwaukee Wisconsin instead of fiber cement, brick, engineered wood, or cedar. The savings could be anywhere from 33 to 288 percent, depending on the type of siding. This is part of the reason why 32 percent of homeowners opt for vinyl siding in the U.S.
Increases Home Value
When making home improvements, it’s important to consider the amount of value that will be retained afterward. With vinyl siding, 81 percent of the value will be retained, compared to about 68 percent for a kitchen remodel and 70 percent for a bathroom remodel. This is even more than the value retained after a roof replacement, which is about 72 percent. Of course, this is only added value if the siding actually needs to be replaced.
Maintenance Considerations
One of the benefits of vinyl siding is that it doesn’t need much maintenance. It just needs to be cleaned every few years, while painted siding has to be painted and caulked about every six years as well as needing to be cleaned every three years. Over the course of 10 years, the maintenance costs are about $1,000 for vinyl siding or about $10,000 for painted siding. Any damaged panels should be replaced with new panels before cleaning, as otherwise water could get behind the panels. Over the course of 10 to 15 years, most vinyl siding will start to fade, so to get the best color match, people often take a piece of siding from a less visible part of the house and replace a damaged panel, then put a new panel in that less visible spot.
