Vinyl Siding by
Great Lakes Window & Siding

Harsh winters and blazing summers create the problems we see on most homes –
  • Peeling Paint
  • Cracked Siding
  • Warped Boards
  •       
  • Rotting Wood
  • Faded Colors
  • Hail Damage
  • Selecting a maintenance-free siding system for your home will ensure that you will never have to spend money and time scraping, sanding and painting your siding. You will never have to worry about cracking, rotting and warping siding. Overall, your maintenance-free exterior will remain beautiful year after year.

    As a home remodeling contractor we can work with all types of siding – Wood, Cement Fiber, Aluminum, Steel, Vinyl, etc... We have chosen to specialize in maintenance-free exteriors which does not include Wood or Cement Fiber siding. That leaves Aluminum, Steel or Vinyl siding. We believe that the highest quality maintenance-free siding offered at the best value is an Insulated Vinyl Siding System.

    On most homes, a complete siding system includes, new insulated vinyl siding, new maintenance-free soffit, fascia, window and door trim and accessories such as vents, outlet plates, and blocks for exterior lights. Many homeowners choose to have us replace their gutters and front entry door when we reside their home to make a complete and finished look.

      Why Insulated Vinyl?
    • Curb Appeal The primary insulated vinyl siding we install is Norandex Polar Wall® Plus! Polar Wall® Plus! looks great on a home because it lays straight and flat against your home creating a more authentic look of real wood. Polar Wall® Plus! offers a variety of profiles – 4” Clapboard, Double 5” Dutchlap and 6” Clapboard - giving you the ability to create the look you are dreaming of. Polar Wall® Plus! comes in 16 color options. You’ll be surprised when you see they are not all 16 different shades of beige.
    • Energy- Efficiency The insulation behind your vinyl siding is an extra layer of insulation that will help manage your energy costs. Versus non-insulated siding, it can increase the energy-efficiency of your home by as much as 20%.
    • Hail Resistance The strength of the vinyl used, paired with the foam insulation makes an exterior siding system that is designed to resist dents and scratches from any type of impact – hail, kids playing baseball, debris from a lawnmower and other impacts. Norandex even warrants the Polar Wall® Plus! Siding system against damage caused by hail and other objects.
    • Wind Resistance There is nothing less appealing than vinyl siding hanging off of a home. The strength of vinyl siding comes from how it is nailed onto your home. Polar Wall® Plus! gets its strength from an extra heavy-duty double thick nailing hem and ¾” butt called “BearHug® “ that locks panels tight to guard against wind, rain and anything Mother Nature has to offer. Polar Wall® Plus! is actually designed to resist winds exceeding 200 mph that can cause other siding materials to blow right off the wall.
    • Fade Resistance We’ve all seen ugly faded siding. This is caused by the sun’s ultra-violet rays. Polar Wall® Plus! features ColorHold®, a UV stable acrylic polymer that has excellent fade-resistant properties. This means the color you select will retain its beauty for years to come. You can even select colors other than beige and rest easy knowing Norandex provides a Fade Protection Warranty.
    • Noise Resistance With insulated vinyl siding your home will be quieter. You will hear less of the outside noises like lawnmowers, kids and cars because the insulation behind your vinyl siding will reduce the transmission of sound from the outside to the inside of your home.
      Why Norandex Polar Wall® Plus! is the Best-
    • Warranty A Limited Lifetime warranty from a company that has been in the siding business since the 1940’s will give you peace of mind that you won’t have to worry about your siding’s performance year after year.
    • The Good Housekeeping Seal Norandex has been a seal holder since 1990. This is a symbol of consumer trust and confidence for more than a century.
    • Energy Star® Rated - Polar Wall® Plus! meets the performance guidelines of an Energy Star® qualified home.
