As the top roofing and siding contractor in the area, Homecraft® Inc. only installs high-quality products that can enhance the home’s beauty, comfort, and energy efficiency. Among the ones we offer is ProVia® CedarMAX™ insulated vinyl siding. Apart from improving your home’s curb appeal, it also provides superior thermal protection. Today, we take a closer look at its many features and benefits.

Better Energy Efficiency

CedarMAX insulated vinyl siding can greatly improve the energy efficiency and appearance of your home. It has sturdy, rigid foam insulation that offers superior thermal protection, blanketing your home to ensure acceptable levels of comfort. When installed, it covers everything, including wall studs. This helps prevent thermal bridging from causing energy to escape.

Improved Weather Resistance

CedarMAX insulated siding is designed to withstand rain, hail, and wind-carried debris. The same rigid foam that resists heat flow also has tremendous impact resistance that’s five times greater than that of hollow siding. Also, during installation, our siding and roof repair pros make sure to properly nail the product for better tear resistance and increased wind performance. The siding also has a patented locking system to enhance its overall rigidity on the wall.

Increased Curb Appeal

When installed, the product’s panels remain longer and straighter because the backing can seamlessly bridge the subtle irregularities that are apparent on the wall surface. Apart from the fact that it comes in a wide range of colors, it is also available in numerous profiles, including single, double, triple, and board and batten. Our experienced pros will assist you in selecting your desired siding color and style, taking your personal preference and your home’s architectural style into account.

At Homecraft® Inc., expect our skilled professionals to deliver a complete package of siding, trim, and accessories that will transform the look of your home. Aside from siding, we also offer roofing services. As GAF-certified roofers, we go out of our way to make the entire process as simple and worry-free as possible.

When it comes to siding replacement, not only should you settle for the color you fell in love with. Choosing the right profile is one of the most important things you need to consider for this project. Homecraft® Inc., your local siding and wood window installation contractor, shares these tips to help you:

Vertical or Horizontal Siding?

Your home’s architectural style dictates which type of siding profile to select. Horizontal siding fits well in traditional homes such as Craftsman, Cape Cod, and American Farmhouse. Vertical siding, meanwhile, can grab attention while giving ranch-style homes the illusion of height. Combine it with a neutral color and you have a siding that exudes a grandiose vibe.

Consider the Profile’s Size

The width of your chosen siding material plays an important role in making your home exterior appealing. For instance, wide siding panels can give Colonial and other similar home styles their stately appearance. If you have a ranch or bungalow-style home, a narrower profile would be much better because it casts a shadow that makes the whole property look taller than it is.

Enhance Your Exterior Further

When selecting materials for your siding, consider mixing textures to give your home exterior an interesting look. Polymeric shakes, for instance, can be installed on the gables of your home for added visual dimension. You may also consider replacement windows to round out the design concept you are aiming for.

Take Advantage of Online Tools

Even with these tips on choosing the right siding profile, we also want you to make this process a bit easier.
