If you are considering replacing your siding, vinyl offers an affordable, versatile, and durable option for your home.


These photos were taken during a Retex siding replacement project in June, in which this Northside Richmond homeowner chose to replace his clay siding with CertainTeed Mainstreet “Wedgewood Blue” vinyl siding.


Vinyl siding started gaining popularity in the 1950s, and it’s the most widely used siding option in the country. It offers a durable, versatile, pest- and moisture-resistant material for your home’s exteriors without breaking the bank.
