When you’re ready to replace your siding, make sure that your replacement siding will meet the test of time. Your replacement siding should come with a transferable lifetime warranty in both product and installation. Make sure your vinyl siding has a high R-value – at Coastal Windows & Exteriors we offer vinyl siding with an R-Value of up to 1.5” thick which will provide exceptional insulation. Make sure your siding comes with an innovative locking mechanism combined with a rolled top nail hem to stand up to extreme winds.  Look for foam back siding made from Neopor which provides up to 19% better insulating power (R-value) than conventional EPS foam when you need it most.  It also has a very high moisture vapor transmission rate.  As always, make sure to research your siding contractor in advance to make sure they are licensed, insured, and have a trusted reputation.
