Window and Door Wraps
We recommend wrapping window and door trim when we install vinyl siding. It gives your home a clean, finished look, protects the wood trim underneath and helps seal out drafts and moisture.Caring for Vinyl Siding
- Rinse it once or twice a year with a garden hose, working from the top down.
- For stubborn dirt or mildew, use a soft brush and a mild household cleaner.
- Avoid high-pressure washing aimed upward, which can drive water behind the panels.
- Keep grills and other heat sources away from the walls.
