  USEFUL TIPS

Cleaning your vinyl siding - As recommended by Alside, Inc.

  1. Use a soft bristled, long handled washing brush. Do not rub vigorously, as this may create a glossy area over the vinyl siding finish.
  2. For hard to remove dirt, wipe the siding down with a solution consisting of the following ingredients:
    • 1/3 cup powdered detergent (Tide, Fab or equivalent)
    • 2/3 cup household cleaner (Soilax, Spic & Span or equivalent) 1 gallon water
  3. If mildew is a problem in your area, prepare the solution above but substitute 1 quart of laundry bleach for 1 quart of water.
  4. If you wash down the entire house, start at the bottom and work up to the top, as less streaking will result.
  5. It is important that immediately following all washing operations, the entire surface be thoroughly rinsed with fresh water from a garden hose. Avoid prolonged or high pressure rinsing of open, ventilated areas.
  6. For best results when using a cleaning solution, select an overcast cool day (55*-75*) and wash only small areas at a time. This should allow the wet cleaning solution to remain in contact with the finish for a period of not less than 3 minutes; then rinse with clear water before it has a chance to dry.

CAUTION: GREATER CONCENTRATIONS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE VINYL SIDING FINISH. DO NOT USE CLEANERS CONTAINING ABRASIVE PARTICLES, SOLVENT OR AMMONIATED-TYPE CLEANERS OR PAINT REMOVER FOR CLEANING THE VINYL SIDING. WHEN USING ANY OF THE ABOVE CHEMICAL CLEANING AGENTS, OBSERVE THE CHEMICAL MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDED SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. PROTECT AGAINST CONTACT OF THE SOLUTION WITH EYES OR SKIN.

This cleaning and maintenance information is suggested in an effort to be of assistance; however, Alside and A-1 Siding, Inc. can assume no responsibility for results obtained which are dependant on the solution chemicals as prepared and method of application.

Roofing - When roofing your home, any shingle the customer wishes to use will hold providing you ensure your roof has the proper ventilation.

Windows - When replacing windows in your home, keep in mind the warranties. Vinyl windows carry a lifetime warranty, where wood windows only have a 20 yr warranty. Also, look for Low E / Argon gas in your windows. Low E / Argon gas provides for energy saving in your home and the lower the U-Value and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient, the more energy efficient your windows would be. Energy efficient windows with Low E / Argon gas also qualify you for rebates from your utility companies providing your utility company offers the rebate program.
