Royal Siding Horsham PA
When Standard Siding Wasn't Enough Anymore
Last fall, Robert from Dresher stood in his driveway looking at his neighbors freshly installed Royal Siding and realized his own five-year-old standard vinyl looked terrible by comparison. His siding had faded unevenly—the south wall two shades lighter than the north. Several panels had cracked during last winters ice storm. His neighbors Royal Siding gleamed uniformly, showing no fade despite facing the same sun exposure for three years.
"I thought all vinyl siding was basically the same," Robert told us during his consultation. "Seeing the difference side-by-side made me realize what I'd settled for."
Thats why discerning homeowners choose Royal Siding in Horsham PA—superior materials with proven performance that outlasts and outperforms standard options. Royal Siding Products manufactures premium vinyl with advanced formulations resisting fade, impact damage, and weathering that destroys lesser materials. The difference isnt subtle—its obvious to anyone comparing Royal Siding homes against properties with budget alternatives.
Why Royal Siding Products Delivers Premium Quality
Royal Building Products has manufactured exterior building materials for over 50 years, developing technologies that address real-world performance challenges. Their siding incorporates UV-resistant polymers preventing color fade, impact modifiers withstanding hail and debris, advanced formulations resisting warping from temperature extremes, and rigorous testing ensuring consistency across every production run.
The difference becomes clear after Pennsylvania weather tests materials for several years. Homes throughout Horsham, Willow Grove, and Ambler sided with Royal products 10-15 years ago maintain appearance and performance rivaling new installations. Properties with standard vinyl from the same era show obvious deterioration—fading, warping, cracks, and brittleness requiring replacement from our team.
Royal Siding Product Lines for Every Budget
Celect Cellular Composite—their premium engineered composite with wood-grain textures and superior impact resistance. Distinction Plus—high-performance vinyl with maximum fade protection and lifetime limited warranty. Residential—quality vinyl balancing performance and value for budget-conscious homeowners. Specialty Profiles—shake, scallop, and board-and-batten styles for architectural interest.
The Victorian on Hatboro Avenue needed authentic shake siding matching their architectural period. Royals premium shake profiles provided realistic wood appearance with modern durability—no painting, no rot, excellent weather resistance the original wood never offered. Twelve years later, it looks perfect while neighbors wood siding requires constant maintenance.
What Makes Royal Siding Worth Premium Pricing
Advanced Color Technology
Royals ColorGuard technology incorporates UV stabilizers throughout the entire panel thickness, not just surface coatings. Colors resist fading dramatically better than standard vinyl. Dark colors—difficult with most manufacturers—maintain vibrancy with Royals formulations. The ranch in Blue Bell has deep charcoal Royal Siding installed nine years ago still matching original color samples perfectly.
Superior Impact Resistance
Reinforced polymer formulations withstand hail impacts and flying debris that crack standard vinyl. Pennsylvania weather includes frequent severe storms with damaging conditions. Impact-resistant siding prevents repair costs after storms that destroy budget materials. Insurance companies often discount premiums for impact-rated siding in storm-prone regions.
Enhanced Thermal Stability
Royal Siding resists warping from temperature extremes better than standard alternatives. Panels maintain shape through summer heat exceeding 95°F and winter cold below 0°F. Standard vinyl often warps, buckles, or develops waves from thermal stress Royal formulations prevent.
What Budget Siding Cant Deliver
Standard vinyl uses commodity-grade polymers with minimal UV protection. Colors fade within 5-7 years, panels crack from impacts, and thermal movement causes warping. Warranties typically cover 10-20 years with significant limitations excluding fade and normal wear.
Royal Siding employs premium formulations with advanced stabilizers, impact modifiers, and enhanced durability. Colors maintain vibrancy 15-20+ years, materials withstand impacts breaking standard vinyl, and thermal stability prevents warping. Warranties extend to lifetime limited coverage on premium lines with fade protection standard alternatives dont offer.
The cost difference—typically 15-30% more for Royal versus standard vinyl—disappears when calculating per-year costs. Royal lasting 30-40 years costs less annually than standard vinyl requiring replacement every 12-15 years.
Long-Term Value Analysis
Budget siding might save $2,000-4,000 initially but needs replacement in 10-15 years. Over 30 years, youre paying for siding three times. Royal installed once serves 30-40+ years with minimal maintenance. The math heavily favors premium materials when you look beyond the initial invoice.
The split-level in Ambler chose budget vinyl saving $3,200 upfront. Ten years later theyre planning replacement while their neighbors with Royal expect another 15+ years of service. That initial savings turned into long-term expense.
Thorough Substrate Inspection and Preparation
Royal Siding performance requires proper installation over correctly prepared surfaces. We inspect existing sheathing for damage requiring repair, install or replace house wrap creating moisture barriers, and upgrade flashing around openings preventing water infiltration. Manufacturers void warranties when installation doesnt meet specifications—we follow every requirement protecting your investment.
Expert Installation by Trained Professionals
Royal requires specific installation techniques different from standard vinyl. Correct nailing patterns, precise expansion gaps, and accurate overlaps ensure panels perform as designed. We train specifically on Royal products, understanding nuances that generic vinyl installers miss. The colonial on Fort Washington Avenue had previous Royal Siding installed by untrained contractors. Panels warped from improper fastening despite premium materials. Correct installation technique matters as much as material quality.
Complete System Integration with Matching Components
Royal manufactures coordinated trim, corners, soffit, and fascia creating unified systems. Mixing brands creates color mismatches and incompatible expansion characteristics. We install Royal accessories throughout ensuring consistent appearance, proper thermal movement, and complete warranty coverage on integrated systems rather than assembled parts from multiple manufacturers.
Standard Royal Siding: $9,000-16,000
Quality Royal Residential products for average-sized homes provide excellent performance at moderate premiums over budget vinyl. Superior to standard alternatives while costing less than Royals premium lines. Most homes in Horsham get outstanding value from mid-tier Royal products. The ranch in Ambler chose Royal Residential in custom taupe. Seven years later, it looks showroom-new and cost $13,200 installed.
Premium Royal Products: $16,000-26,000
Distinction Plus and specialty profiles for homes wanting maximum performance and distinctive appearance. Enhanced warranties, superior fade resistance, and architectural profiles justify premium pricing. These installations deliver exceptional curb appeal with unmatched durability.
Celect Composite Ultimate: $26,000-42,000+
Top-tier Celect cellular composite for homeowners wanting absolute best available. Wood-grain realism, maximum impact ratings, guaranteed fade resistance, and lifetime warranties. Most expensive option becomes most economical long-term through eliminating all future replacement cycles. The Tudor in Willow Grove invested $35,000 in Celect with custom colors. Fourteen years later, it looks perfect and will never need replacement.
Single-Story Homes: 4-6 Days
Most ranch-style homes with Royal Siding take four to six days for complete installation. Timeline includes old siding removal, proper preparation, Royal installation following specifications, and complete trim work. Quality installation requires precision—rushing creates problems undermining premium materials advantages.
Two-Story Homes: 6-8 Days
Added height and typically more complex designs extend installation time. Royals premium profiles require careful handling and exact installation. Most two-story projects finish within seven days including final inspection and thorough cleanup. Professional installation ensures warranties remain valid and products perform as designed.
Complex Architectural Homes: 9-16 Days
Multiple gables, extensive trim details, or homes mixing Royal profiles for visual interest require extended timelines. Specialty products like shake patterns take longer than smooth profiles because of intricate installation requirements. The Victorian on Maple Glen took thirteen days because of complex historical details and custom trim, but results transformed the property.
Maintaining Your Royal Siding
Minimal Care Requirements
Royal Siding needs washing once or twice yearly removing dirt and organic growth. Garden hose pressure usually suffices—pressure washers can damage any siding if used incorrectly. Unlike wood requiring painting and repairs, Royal maintains beauty with minimal effort. The colonial on Welsh Road has spent $120 total on siding maintenance in eleven years—two professional cleanings.
Seasonal Inspections
Walk around checking for damage after severe weather. Royals impact resistance prevents most storm damage, but major events can affect any material. Early detection of rare damage prevents water getting behind panels. Most Royal-sided homes show zero damage after storms destroying standard vinyl.
Warranty Coverage Understanding
Royal warranties cover manufacturing defects and depending on product line, color fade. Keep installation documentation and warranty paperwork organized. The few times defects occur, Royals reputation for honoring warranties means straightforward resolution without arguments or disputes.
Why Horsham Area Homes Choose Royal Siding
Pennsylvania weather demands siding materials that withstand temperature swings from -10°F to 95°F, intense UV exposure during summer, heavy precipitation year-round, and impacts from frequent severe storms. Royal engineering specifically addresses these challenges with formulations tested in conditions matching our climate extremes.
Homes throughout Montgomery County represent significant investments requiring protection from elements. Royal Siding provides that protection while enhancing curb appeal and property values. Premium materials with proven longevity create peace of mind budget alternatives never deliver.

The split-level in Fort Washington used three complementary Royal profiles creating sophisticated exterior far exceeding their budget. Combination installations provide custom home appearance at production home prices.
