If your home still has old aluminum or outdated vinyl siding, you may be surprised at how much upgrading to modern vinyl siding can improve your home’s appearance, energy efficiency, and resale value. At JP Construction Services, we help homeowners throughout Maryland and Pennsylvania transform tired exteriors into beautiful, low-maintenance, energy-efficient homes with premium vinyl siding replacements.
Whether your siding is faded, dented, outdated, or missing panels, upgrading to new vinyl siding offers one of the best returns on investment of any home improvement project—and a dramatic boost in curb appeal.
Why So Many Homeowners Are Replacing Aluminum Siding
Aluminum siding was once the go-to choice for homes across MD and PA, but today it comes with serious drawbacks:
Fades heavily over time
Dents easily from hail, ladders, and yard equipment
Looks outdated compared to modern materials
Hard to match if pieces go missing
Limited style and color options

Once aluminum fades or a panel is damaged, finding a perfect color match is extremely unlikely, leaving your home looking patched together. Many homeowners reach a point where full replacement makes far more sense than continuing to repair.
Older Vinyl Siding Has Its Own Problems
While vinyl is an excellent siding material today, older vinyl siding often falls short of modern standards:
Thinner panels that warp or crack more easily
Limited, outdated color choices
Less resistance to fading
Lower wind ratings than today’s systems
If your vinyl siding is 20–30+ years old, upgrading can dramatically improve both performance and appearance.
The Advantages of Modern Vinyl Siding
Today’s vinyl siding is stronger, more customizable, and more efficient than ever. Homeowners across Maryland and Pennsylvania are choosing vinyl for these key reasons:
Fade-resistant color technology. Modern vinyl siding is manufactured with UV-resistant pigments that dramatically reduce fading. Your color stays vibrant for decades—not just a few years.
Huge variety of colors and styles. Today’s vinyl siding doesn’t mean “basic.” You can choose from:
Classic horizontal laps
Straight-lap
Dutchlap
Beaded
Vertical vinyl siding
Vinyl shake and shingle styles
This allows homeowners to match traditional, farmhouse, coastal, or modern architectural styles—something aluminum could never offer.

Upgrade the Underlayment While the Siding Is Off
One of the most overlooked benefits of replacing siding is the opportunity to fix or upgrade the hidden layers beneath it.
Many older homes have:
Little to no proper weather barrier
Aging or damaged sheathing
Poor moisture protection
When JP Construction Services removes your old siding, we can:
Install proper moisture barriers
Improve air sealing
Strengthen the overall building envelope
This leads directly to better comfort, moisture control, and long-term protection.

Add Insulated Siding and Lower Your Energy Bills
Homeowners can also choose to upgrade to insulated vinyl siding, which adds a layer of thermal protection directly to the exterior of the home.
Benefits include:
Reduced heat loss in winter
Lower cooling costs in summer
More consistent indoor temperatures
Reduced HVAC strain
Real energy savings month after month
For many homeowners in Maryland and Pennsylvania, this upgrade alone can make a noticeable difference in comfort and utility bills.
New Siding Can Completely Transform Your Home’s Appearance
If your home has siding on all four sides, replacing it can feel like buying a brand-new house.
We’ve seen homes go from:
Dull
Faded
Patchy
Outdated
To:
Bold
Clean
Modern
Eye-catching
New siding creates instant curb appeal, turning a former eyesore into one of the best-looking homes on the block.

One of the Highest ROIs in Home Renovation
Few home upgrades deliver the financial return that siding does. Industry data consistently shows that new siding replacements rank among the top home improvements for return on investment.
You benefit from:
Higher resale value
Faster home sales
Strong buyer appeal
Improved inspection results
If you’re planning to sell in the next 5–10 years, new vinyl siding is one of the smartest investments you can make.
