Pick a vinyl profile that suits your home

Vinyl siding is made in several profiles, and each one gives the house a different character. Select a style below to see where it tends to fit best. Available colors and exact profiles vary by manufacturer, so we bring samples to review with you.

Horizontal lap

The most common profile, with long boards that run side to side. It suits traditional, ranch, and contemporary homes, and comes in a range of widths. A good starting point if you want a clean, familiar look.

Dutch lap

This style adds a groove along the top of each board, creating deeper shadow lines. It gives a more classic, textured look and works well on colonial or cottage-style homes.

Board and batten

Vertical panels with narrow raised strips create strong lines that draw the eye upward. Homeowners often use it on gables, entries, or a whole farmhouse-style exterior.

Shake and shingle

These panels mimic the look of cedar shakes. They are often used as an accent on gables or upper floors, mixed with horizontal lap for contrast.

What to know before choosing vinyl

Where vinyl shines

Color is built into the material, so it does not need repainting.
Routine cleaning is usually enough to keep it looking fresh.

It is usually one of the more affordable siding materials.

Things to weigh

Strong impact or very cold weather can crack it.

Damaged panels cannot be sanded or painted back to new.

Insulated vinyl, which has a foam backing, is also sold by some manufacturers. We can discuss whether it makes sense for your wall and your goals.
