Vinyl Siding

In our Utah siding market vinyl is used 99% of the time. Its advantages are obvious with its durability, value and limited lifetime warranty. Our preferred panel is Alside's Conquest, it is a .040 Dutch lap double 41/2" panel that is offered in a wide variety of colors. All other brands and grades are also available. Mount masters are included on all lights and electrical outlets for a clean finish look. We also like to supply and install vinyl vents so that everything matches. All siding is hand nailed for contraction and expansion purposes as well as to flatten out any irregularities in the wall. All corner posts are capped and AJ@ channel is installed to impede water.

Aluminum Soffit, Fascia & Wraps

We use aluminum for our soffit & fascia because we can fasten it securely. Vented soffit panels are installed on all eave areas so that air will be sucked in thru the eaves and out the vents and roof vents. It is very important that your home breathes. Trapped air causes condensation with temperature change. Aluminum wraps are custom bent for post & garage door casings (Stucco is also an option) All aluminum products have a baked aluminum enamel finish with a 30 year warranty.

Decorative Vinyl Trims & Siding

There are many options available. In siding we use Alside architectural scallops architectural shakes and fluted corners 5" 4 piece corners and 31/2 window surround. In trims we use Mid-Americas products. We use their vents, mount masters (standard on all lights and electrical outlets) and shutters, we also do sunbursts, ellipticals, dentil trim, door surrounds, window headers, window mantels, designer windows, window corner blocks and lineals. Other brands of trim are also available.

Weather Paper

Weather paper is considered an extra and there are several options available. We use Amo Wrap Tyvec and Kraft building paper.

Stucco

Custom Exteriors installs both types of systems, our workload is typically 50% EIFS and 50% hardcoat Portland cement based. Custom Exteriors prefers working with the quality product that Synergy or Sona Wall offers most other systems are available as well.

Both EIFS and hardcoat look the same when finished and the same finish is applied to both systems. Perma-Flex - Insul-Flex is the standard finish. It is an acrylic polymer-based finished, it holds elastomeric properties and performs well as a wall system finish. Perma-Flex elastomeric is used as an upgrade. It is an acrylic polymer-based finish and it is unequaled in today's market with its full elastomeric (pliable) qualities. Insul-Flex and Elastomeric finishes are both available in 3 textures, coarse, medium classique and classique.

Hardcoat (One coat) Stucco

Hardcoat is a Portland cement based substrate. Exterior foam can be used as an upgrade for insulation advantages. The installation process is as follows.

1. 2 ply paper applied to walls.
2. 3/4" foam is wrapped around windows as trim.
3. 17 gage thick chicken wire is fastened to entire wall, various wire products are also used on trim, corners, bottom of wall and wherever wall ends.
