Homeowner > One-time Investment

Choosing to side your home is a smart investment. Compared to the cost of continual repainting, purchasing siding is a reasonable one-time investment that yields a long-lasting, worry-free exterior.

Siding's Added Value
The entire Gentek product line helps to enhance your home’s curb appeal, make it more attractive on the market and contribute to higher energy efficiency year round.

According to Remodeling magazine's annual "2005 Cost vs. Value Report" (Remodeling, November 2005), investing in new replacement siding also offers homeowners a significant payback.

The national average of the cost recouped is 95.5% for mid-range siding when replacing 1,250 square feet of existing siding with new vinyl siding, including all trim. This data is based on a national average job cost of $7,239 and resale value of $6,914.
