How Vinyl Should Go Up

Vinyl siding nailing hem with room for expansion
Nails sit in the slot center so panels can slide

Most vinyl problems come from installation, not the product, and Charlotte summers are hot enough to show them. The most common mistake is nailing too tight, which stops panels from expanding and makes walls ripple.

A proper install leaves a small gap at every end, centers nails in the slots, and lets each panel hang loosely enough to slide.

Install Questions

How long does it take?

It depends on size and wall repairs. You'll get a schedule once a contractor has looked at the house.

Is housewrap needed?

Yes. It's the water barrier behind the vinyl.

Thicker or thinner panels?

Thicker panels resist dents and stay flatter.

Who handles the repair?

A local contractor who works on siding in your area.
