*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Has the time come to purchase new siding for your home in Baltimore, Maryland? If so, you are one of the thousands of Baltimore-area homeowners each year who replaces their homes� siding. While many of these homeowners are upgrading their homes from wood shakes, asbestos siding, and other materials that degrade over the course of time, others are removing old vinyl siding and replacing it with newer materials. Today�s vinyl siding is improved from the varieties of vinyl siding from yesteryear. New vinyl siding from the home improvement industry�s top manufacturers is not only designed to last longer, but is also available in fade-, chip-, crack-resistant finishes, so it requires less maintenance. There is an additional benefit that modern vinyl siding offers, and that is energy efficiency. Energy-efficient siding is backed with foam insulation, which translates to a higher overall R-value for the product and reduced heat transfer into and out of your home.
With so many energy-efficient siding options on the market, the issue becomes what type of insulated siding to buy. Since not all energy-efficient siding is created equal, what you as a consumer must do is determine for yourself what is most important when it comes down to buying energy-efficient siding. Are you looking for a product with the highest R value? The most natural-looking siding? Perhaps a product line that is available in a plethora of colors? Maybe a combination of all the above? There are many options to consider when buying new siding, so be sure to weigh them carefully.
As for any issues regarding aesthetics, you will need to consult with your neighborhood association (if you belong to one) and find out if there are restrictions on what style or color of siding you are permitted to have on your home. If you live in a deed-restricted community or own an historic home, the issue of aesthetics can easily dog many home renovation projects, so before you contact a home siding contractor, you will need to know ahead of time what type of siding you should be looking for. Having a list of approved siding colors and styles before calling for siding quotes will not only narrow your search for the a siding contractor to those that offer the type of product you are looking for, but will also help prevent delays during the course of the project.
Another thing to consider when looking for siding is to find out which products offer the best warranties. Some vinyl manufacturers only offer five- or ten-year warranties whereas others will provide up to a lifetime of protection. Clearly, there is a lot of money to be potentially saved if you buy siding with a lifetime warranty versus a product offering a decade of protection, so factor this into your decision.
Finally, be sure to check out the previous jobs that your siding installer has done. This will not only help you get an idea as to the quality of their work, but may also help you think of some siding concepts that you may not have otherwise thought of.
