👀This is what can happen when you take light colored vinyl siding and give it a darker makeover.
This house originally had white vinyl siding that was painted a darker blue color. The darker color absorbed much more heat, and unfortunately, the siding didn't handle it well. The result ? Warped siding.
Can vinyl siding be painted ? Yes, there are paints specifically formulated for vinyl.
But is painting your existing vinyl always the best option ? Not necessarily.
Changing the color of vinyl siding can come with some important considerations, especially when going from a light color to a much darker one.
In many cases, replacing the siding with a color you want can make more sense than painting the existing siding, and it gives you new siding rather than trying to make the old something it wasn't designed to be.
Sometimes the "quick and cheaper option" doesn't end up being the cheaper option.😁
This is a pretty good example.
Would you paint your siding a completely different color, or replace it to get the look you want ?🏡
