Choosing the finish covering for the exterior walls of a home is an important decision. The choice of siding has a direct influence on appearance, performance, durability, repair, maintenance and cost. Today's marketplace presents designers, builders, and homeowners with a long list of materials and products to choose from. The siding market is segmented into several divisions based on the materials used.
Now, since the late 1950's the application of vinyl siding has hardly changed at all and has remained very traditional. I am here to tell you that I have developed a patent-pending product and a system of vinyl siding application that no other company has to offer (because they have stuck with the traditional methods) and big companies will soon know that this brand new innovative system in vinyl siding application will not only drastically improve the appearance of a home, but also give you the same look as Hardie Board!
One of the challenges that affects installation is the high amount of expansion the material experiences when the temperature increases. A 12-foot length of vinyl siding can grow 5/8 inch from winter to summer. Since this is an unchangeable characteristic of vinyl, designers have devised ways to accommodate this movement by developing trim pockets that disguise length changes, by using wide nail slots and by training installers not to drive nail heads tight. Properly installed vinyl siding should be able to slide back and forth with temperature changes. With the versatility of vinyl products out there we of course all know by now the benefits of choosing vinyl siding over wood siding.
The bigger challenge then becomes getting a vinyl sided home to look more like a wood sided home. The answer lies in the TRIM. There are five critical pieces used to obtain this illusion: freeze, Ghost-J™, corner post, window casing and rake. Traditional installers waste a lot of time and J-channel only to have the finished result look like a traditional vinyl sided home.
This new innovative product and system was introduced to the Vinyl Siding Industry by one Paul LaFromboise and was submitted for patent in 2004. Two major company's had been very supportive and open minded to changes in the industry and continue to be even today. We can ensure homeowners that no system of Vinyl Siding application comes close to what we offer. Proving that the challenge has been met, and the look of wood does exist.
You will ABSOLUTELY NOT find this unique system of application anywhere else and I encourage you to look into the Future of vinyl siding to discover how we developed an amazing new technique that results in a wood sided finish.
