FAQs
How well does vinyl roofing and siding perform in Athens’ hot summers and occasional cold snaps?
Our premium-grade vinyl panels are engineered for temperature swings from -30 °C to 60 °C (-22 °F to 140 °F). The material includes UV inhibitors that prevent fading under intense Georgia sunlight, while impact-modifying resins keep the boards flexible enough to resist cracking when winter lows drop below freezing. Independent tests show less than 1 % thermal expansion, so panels stay flat and locked even during the hottest August afternoons.
Will vinyl roofing and siding help lower my energy bills?
Yes. Each panel incorporates a reflective pigment package that bounces a portion of the sun’s infrared rays, reducing attic and wall heat gain by up to 18 %. When paired with our insulated backer, the system adds R-2.7 to R-5 to the wall assembly, which can trim annual cooling costs 10-15 % in the Athens climate zone (4A). Homeowners often see a payback within 3–5 years compared with non-insulated cladding.
What kind of maintenance will I need to do after installation?
Vinyl is virtually maintenance-free. Forget sanding, painting, or sealing—an occasional rinse with a garden hose or a mild detergent solution is all that’s required to remove pollen and red-clay dust. The colors are through-body, so scratches are nearly invisible, and the panels are mold- and mildew-resistant. We recommend a quick visual inspection every spring and after severe weather, but no specialized upkeep is necessary.
Can vinyl replicate the classic look of wood or slate found in Athens’ historic neighborhoods?
Absolutely. Our product line includes cedar-shake, board-and-batten, Dutch lap, and slate profiles with deep embossing and low-gloss finishes that pass most historic district guidelines. Color options range from traditional whites and pastels to contemporary dark hues stabilized with Chromatech™ technology, so you can match nearly any architectural style without sacrificing durability.
How long does installation take, and will it disrupt my daily routine?
A typical single-family residence (2,000–2,400 sq ft) can be completed in 3–5 working days for siding and another 1–2 days for a vinyl membrane roof overlay. Because vinyl panels are lightweight and interlocking, crews create less noise and debris than with traditional materials. Dumpsters and scaffolding are positioned to keep driveways clear, and we perform end-of-day cleanups so you can continue using outdoor spaces throughout the project.
What kind of warranty and service support do you provide?
Every vinyl roofing membrane carries a 50-year limited lifetime warranty against cracking, peeling, and excessive color fade; siding panels come with a transferable lifetime warranty. Labor is covered for 10 years, and storm-damage repair assistance is available through our Athens service hub. If you sell your home, the warranty transfers at no cost, adding resale value and peace of mind for the next owner.
