Whether you’re putting the finishing touches on a new build or re-doing the entire exterior of your home, one of the most important decisions you can make towards increasing the curb appeal of your property is what siding you choose.  There are many options of course, all with varying cost and maintenance levels, but more and more North Carolinians are finding themselves considering vinyl cedar siding as an option – and they couldn’t be happier.

When you first hear the term “vinyl siding” you may think of the cheaply made, off-white, easily damaged siding panels of yester-year.  But advancements in the development process have made vinyl siding a greater appeal than other options – especially when you can purchase them in designs that so closely mimic the look and texture of cedar that they even fool most home-inspectors!

Not only is cedar vinyl siding cheaper than cedar wood siding, it’s cheaper than any type of wood siding.  Even the highest quality cedar vinyl siding comes in at about a third of the price of its wooden equivalent.  The material is also highly resistant to the elements and is immune to termites and other pests.  Cleaning is also a snap – simply grab a hose and rinse it off when necessary.

With a low cost and high aesthetic appeal, vinyl cedar siding is difficult to discern from real wood, and will provide you with years of incredible curb appeal.  Talk to your local vinyl cedar siding dealer today and check out the products for yourselves firsthand – you’ll be surprised how far we’ve come with making vinyl look as beautiful as its natural counterpart.
