When rotting begins, it&#8217;s just a matter of time before you&#8217;re dealing with water leaks, discoloration, bug infestation, and other problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A brick home is beautiful until the bricks begin to crack and the mortar starts crumbling away. That\u2019s when vulnerable areas behind the brick fa\u00e7ade can take on water and begin to deteriorate. Water intrusion can cause unsightly white stains (efflorescence) in sections of the masonry walls. Mold can start growing in unseen areas of the home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both wood and brick make wonderful exterior walls for homes, but they both require a fair amount of maintenance and repair work down the line to keep them looking good and protect the house.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The value of vinyl siding<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether it&#8217;s new siding for an existing home or a home under construction, vinyl siding delivers real value to New York homeowners. Here\u2019s why.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Won\u2019t rot<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vinyl siding won&#8217;t absorb water or rot and decay like wood and brick. This means you won\u2019t have to constantly repair it while worrying about structural damage on the other side.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Retains its color<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weather-damaged wood and brick can make a home look ugly after they start to fade and discolor. Vinyl siding has its color baked in, so it won&#8217;t lose its beauty through years of harsh weather.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Attractive pricing<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cost of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/vinyl-siding-installation\/\">installing new vinyl siding<\/a> on a home can be less than half that of adding real wood, brick, or stone siding. The price is even less when you consider how long vinyl siding will last and how good it will look throughout its lifespan.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Long life<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When a quality vinyl siding product is installed correctly, you should get at least 30 to 40 years from it. It\u2019s not uncommon for it to keep performing well after 60 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Provides extra insulation<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vinyl siding is a great way to add insulation to your home and help lower heating and cooling bills.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5231\" src=\"https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing-copy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/siding-3-768x768-1.jpg\" alt=\"Siding installations in Buffalo, NY.\" width=\"768\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/siding-3-768x768-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/siding-3-768x768-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/siding-3-768x768-1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>A beautiful appearance<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the variety of styles, colors, and finishes available with vinyl siding, you can give your home a beautiful look that everyone passing by will marvel at, and you get to live with every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>May speed up the sale of the home<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, as with many home upgrades, lovely vinyl siding can be a factor that speeds up the sale of your home when that time comes.
