FAQs

What exactly is insulated vinyl siding, and how does it differ from standard vinyl siding?

Insulated vinyl siding is traditional vinyl siding that has a rigid, contoured layer of expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam permanently laminated to the back of each panel. The foam increases the panel’s R-value, adds structural integrity, and helps the siding lie flatter against the wall. Compared with standard vinyl, insulated profiles deliver better energy savings, quieter interiors, improved impact resistance, and a more authentic wood-grain appearance because the foam supports deeper, sharper embossing.

How can insulated vinyl siding lower my energy bills in Englewood’s hot summers and cold winters?

The EPS backing typically adds an R-value of 2.4–3.5 to the wall assembly, reducing thermal bridging through studs—an area where up to 25 % of a home’s heat can be lost. In summer, the foam and the vinyl’s reflective pigments help keep solar heat out; in winter, the continuous insulation traps conditioned air inside. Homeowners in the Englewood area commonly report heating and cooling savings of 10-15 % after upgrading, especially when the siding is installed in combination with air-sealing around windows, doors, and rim joists.

Is insulated vinyl siding durable enough to handle Englewood’s hailstorms, high winds, and temperature swings?

Yes. The foam backing increases the panel’s rigidity, allowing it to resist wind loads of 160 mph or more and pass ASTM D5206 impact tests that simulate hail up to 1.25 in. The panels also include weather-resistant additives that keep them flexible in sub-zero temperatures and prevent brittleness under intense UV exposure at Colorado’s higher altitude. For additional peace of mind, our preferred product lines carry Class 1 fire ratings and are certified by the Vinyl Siding Institute (VSI).

Can I coordinate new insulated vinyl siding with a roof replacement as one comprehensive exterior project?

Absolutely. Combining siding and roofing work is often the most cost-effective approach because it reduces labor mobilization fees and ensures that critical flashing details at the roof-to-wall junction are installed in the correct sequence. Our Englewood crews are cross-trained in both trades, so we can complete a typical 2,000 sq ft home in 7-10 working days, weather permitting, while maintaining a single point of contact and synchronized warranties for both the roof and siding systems.

What color and style options are available, and will the color fade over time?

Insulated vinyl siding is offered in shakes, board-and-batten, Dutch lap, and traditional clapboard profiles, with over 30 color choices ranging from timeless whites and earth tones to bold, modern hues. Premium lines use acrylic or ASA cap-stock technology that resists chalking and UV degradation, earning a certified fade rating of 7 Hunter units or less over 10 years. That translates to color retention you can count on; any noticeable fading is covered by limited lifetime transferable warranties.

How much maintenance does insulated vinyl siding require, and what kind of warranty is included?

Maintenance is minimal: an annual rinse with a garden hose and soft brush typically removes dust and pollen. The closed-cell foam backing does not absorb water, so there is no risk of rot or insect damage. Manufacturers provide limited lifetime warranties on material defects and typically cover fade, hail, and wind damage up to specified thresholds. Our workmanship warranty adds 10 years of labor coverage, and both warranties transfer once if you sell your Englewood home, adding resale value.
