Why Does Siding Stay So Vibrant?
New Siding can remain vibrant for years for several reasons. Keep reading today’s article to learn more.
Material Choice
The material used for siding plays a significant role in its vibrancy. High-quality siding materials, such as vinyl, fiber cement, or cedar ridge, are designed to resist fading and maintain their color over time. These materials, which we sell at Conservation Construction, are treated with UV-resistant coatings to prevent damage from the sun’s ultraviolet rays, which can cause fading.
UV Resistance
UV rays from the sun are a major contributor to the fading of exterior materials. Siding pigments today are resistant to UV radiation and use baked on color technologies to ensure vibrancy against harsh weather. This helps to protect the siding from the sun’s harmful effects and maintain its color vibrancy. Vinyl, James Hardie, and Cedar Ridge are so resistant to the sun’s rays they don’t need to be painted again for decades.
Proper Installation
Proper installation of siding is crucial for its long-term vibrancy. When siding is installed correctly, it can better withstand exposure to the elements, reducing the likelihood of damage and fading. Properly installed siding also helps maintain its structural integrity, which can contribute to its vibrant appearance. Our experts have decades of experience installing siding so they get your job done the correct way the first time!
Maintenance
Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and inspecting the siding is a thing of the past. New siding replacement requires little to no maintenance to maintain its vibrancy!
Color Choice
Additionally, choosing lighter-colored siding can help maintain its vibrancy for longer. That is because it does resist the UV rays better for longer.
Quality of Paint or Finish
Most new sidings today come pre-painted or pre-finished. These vibrant colors are put on by the manufacturer itself so they are more strongly bonded to the siding panels. This means better vibrancy and resistance to weather than ever before.
