AMAZING INSULATED SIDING SYSTEM: When it comes to re-facing the exterior of your home, there are many options for a wood or wood-like surface. There is the standard vinyl siding, fiber cement (Hardie) siding, steel siding, cedar siding and the newest ASA or Acrylonitrile Styrenic Acrolate siding. Our AmazingPlank and AmazingWall Insulated Siding System are now made of ASA. ASA is a more weatherable cladding material and more thermally stable than vinyl. Because if it’s acrylic base, we now offer it in very dark designer colors. We have BROWN, RED, GREEN and BLUE. It also has a lower authentic gloss finish.

HOW TO FIND A GOOD CONTRACTOR:
There are many good vinyl siding companies to choose from in Houston, Texas. However, don’t just rely on a familiar name or the longevity of the company. One thing to watch for is individuals operating their company out of their home rather than an office with employees. It is a national fact that most small businesses fail within the first 5 years leaving behind many unprotected customers. These companies boast about their low overhead saving you money but when there is legal or financial trouble, it’s too easy to close up that company and start another leaving you without a warranty.

Vinyl siding, when properly manufactured and expertly installed, should provide insulation in a few important ways:

• First, it should create structural integrity. Vinyl siding can be thought of as a protective shell for your home. In this way, it should be as seamless and durable as possible.
   
• Second, vinyl siding should increase R-value. R-value refers to thermal resistance, and is one way of measuring the insulating capacity of any given material.
   
• Third, vinyl siding should allow moisture to escape. By permitting the walls to “breathe,” the problems associated with mildew and rot can be effectively averted.
   
• Finally, vinyl siding should prevent air infiltration. In this way, the many unwanted elements carried by the air—such as noise or pollution—can be significantly reduced.
