Insulated Siding Installation

Insulated Siding for Greater Resilience and Weatherproofing

In recent years, foam backed vinyl siding has increased in popularity for both commercial and residential applications. Most commonly insulated siding is manufactured similarly to traditional vinyl siding, but with a layer of expanded polystyrene (EPS) fitted to the underside of the boards. This foam acts as an insulator, and also serves to make your siding system more resilient to impact and warping.

Another facet of insulated siding is the color versatility. In the past, vinyl siding has been confined to beige, white or grey. Now, manufacturers are producing foam backed vinyl siding in every color from blue to red to pink, giving home- and facility-owners design versatility. No matter what aesthetic you are trying to achieve, there is a variation of insulated vinyl siding that will work for your home or commercial building.

Thinking about installing or repairing your foam backed vinyl siding?

This Is What You Need to Know

EPS foam is an excellent insulator, with a high r-value—or resistance heat flow—which is why it is used as the backing of foam siding. For both commercial and residential applications, foam backed vinyl siding protects buildings from extreme temperatures, resulting in lower heating and cooling bills. Foam siding is also breathable, meaning your siding system has some vapor permeability without retaining moisture.

Insulated vinyl siding is a middle ground between traditional vinyl siding and more expensive materials, such as wood siding—foam backed vinyl siding costs about $1.70-$4.20 per square foot.

When compared to traditional vinyl siding, foam siding requires less maintenance, as the foam behind the siding system alleviates problems caused by expansion and contracting around seams. This means the wind is less likely to pull at the seams of foam siding, and water is less likely to leak through.

As with most siding and roofing projects, proper installation is absolutely crucial to the success of a system. A bad installation can result in warped boards, buckled siding, leaks and gaps between seams—all of which can lead to the premature failure of your foam siding system.

An experienced siding contractor will install flashings correctly around windows and dormers, as well as cut and align insulated siding boards perfectly, preventing pull-away from seams and corners.

Donna Brueggemann

I incurred wind and hail damage to the roof and siding on my house. I used Wildwood Roofing at the recommendation of my insurance agent.Wildwood did a phenomenal job from start to finish. We couldn’t be happier.I am a very particular person. There is not a single imperfection in the finished product. My house, including all the little details that matter, looks stunning. The crew was friendly, kept a clean and quiet job site, and it was apparent they take pride in doing outstanding work. Milton was the installation crew leader and Kevin oversaw the installation. Again, I can’t point out how committed this team was to ensuring exceptional work.We ran into a little issue during the project. The issue had to do with my personal preferences and material selections my issues, not insurance or the contractor. Jay, the Operations Manager from Wildwood Roofing, personally showed up at my house, provided some new options for me, and found a cost-effective way for us to get exactly the finished product that we wanted. We couldn’t be happier with the extra attention and service we received in response to us changing our mind mid-project.It was exceptionally easy working with Wildwood. My primary contact in the office for billing was Ryan. Ryan was always immediately responsive and very helpful.Without any reservation, I highly recommend Wildwood Roofing. It’s apparent they take pride in performing exceptional work and the entirety of their organization is customer focused, service oriented, and highly responsive.

Elliot is very professional and timely when working with his customers. His team moves quickly and is very professional also. They are quick to answer any questions you have.

Brenda Emann

Wildwood Roofing did an amazing job on my new roof. I had some storm damage and they were able to get me in to tarp my roof to stop water from coming into my living room on a day that everyone was trying to do the same thing. They were so supportive and gracious about it and made me feel at ease through all the turmoil. The replacement of the roof process was just as easy and they were so efficient. Roof looks amazing. They did a fantastic clean up job. I would highly recommend them and if/when I need any roofing needs, they will be the team I call. Very professional and courteous.
