Re: Crane Vinyl Siding

Yes we have Crane "Market Square" siding. We like it. Do you have any specific questions?

Oh goodie! We are looking at doing our siding and that is one brand recommended by our contractor. And, it's the market square coastal collection (we are thinking of regatta blue because our house is blue right now).

The only downside was the lack of 16' pieces so that you wouldn't have gaps.

So, first do you see any gaps between pieces? Is it really noticeable?

Has it held up? We wanted to make sure its durable.

Re: Crane Vinyl Siding

Honestly the seams (I assume this is what you mean by gaps) aren't that obvious to me, it really depends on what angle you're looking at the house from as to whether you can see them or not. A good contractor will know how to stagger them so they are not as obvious.

We've only had the siding for two years, so I can't speak to the long term, but it's held up great so far. No problems at all!

The color you chose is pretty!

Yep, the seams -- I knows its on how they put them in but we are debating between another brand that has 16 foot lengths so you don't have to worry about them.

Glad you haven't had any probs with them so far!

And thanks on the color -- its the same we have now.
