FAQs
What makes your fade-resistant vinyl different from standard vinyl products?
Our vinyl is manufactured with advanced acrylic and titanium-dioxide (TiO₂) pigments that are chemically bonded into the PVC substrate during extrusion. These pigments block UV rays instead of merely reflecting them, preventing the photo-degradation that normally causes color fading. In addition, a clear acrylic cap-stock layer is co-extruded over the color layer, acting like built-in sunscreen that protects against Flintville’s intense summer sun and freeze-thaw cycles.
How long can I expect the color to last in Flintville’s climate?
When properly installed, the siding or roofing retains at least 90 % of its original color for 25–30 years. Flintville’s average 199 sunny days and frequent temperature swings were factored into lab testing, which simulated 30 Flintville summers and winters under accelerated UV exposure. Even after that test period, color shift was measured at less than a Delta-E of 1.0—smaller than what the human eye can detect from street distance.
Does fade-resistant vinyl improve energy efficiency and lower utility bills?
Yes. Our material is Solar Reflective Index (SRI) rated: light colors reflect up to 70 % of solar heat, while darker colors incorporate IR-reflective pigments that keep surface temperatures up to 15 °F cooler than conventional dark vinyl. When paired with insulated backer panels or our ventilated roofing underlayment, homeowners in Flintville typically see 8–12 % savings on summer air-conditioning costs according to local utility bill audits.
What maintenance is required to keep vinyl roofing and siding looking new?
Maintenance is minimal: 1) Rinse the panels once or twice a year with a garden hose and a soft brush. 2) For pollen, algae, or Flintville’s occasional iron-rich well-water stains, use a 1:10 bleach-water solution or a manufacturer-approved vinyl cleaner. 3) Avoid pressure washers over 1,300 psi and never use oil-based paints or solvents. Because color is molded through the thickness of the panel, you’ll never need to scrape, prime, or repaint.
What warranties or guarantees come with your fade-resistant vinyl solutions?
We provide a double warranty. The manufacturer offers a Lifetime Limited Fade Warranty that guarantees the color will not chalk, fade, or discolor beyond ASTM standard limits for as long as you own your home, and it’s transferable for 30 years. Our Flintville installation team adds a 15-year Workmanship Guarantee covering labor, fastener security, wind uplift to 130 mph, and water infiltration.
How does the cost of fade-resistant vinyl roofing and siding compare to other materials?
Installed cost in Flintville averages $6–$9 per square foot for siding and $7–$11 for vinyl roofing shingles, typically 30–40 % less than fiber-cement, engineered wood, or metal roofing profiles. Initial costs are slightly higher (about 10 %) than standard vinyl, but when you factor in repainting, caulking, and repair costs every 7–10 years for other cladding types, fade-resistant vinyl’s lifetime cost of ownership is the lowest among durable exterior options.
