More St. Louis homeowners choose vinyl siding than any other exterior material — and it's not just the price. Vinyl delivers a hard-to-beat combination of durability, low maintenance, and versatility. As a certified installer with 100+ five-star reviews, Meridian has helped hundreds of families across the metro upgrade their exteriors with professional vinyl siding installation.
Most Affordable Option
Vinyl siding typically installs for $8–$14 per square foot — significantly less than James Hardie fiber cement or engineered wood. It delivers the highest value-per-dollar of any major siding material without sacrificing quality or curb appeal.
Zero Painting — Ever
Vinyl never needs painting, staining, or sealing. An annual rinse with a garden hose is all it takes to keep it looking new for decades. Over a 30-year ownership period, the maintenance savings can easily offset the cost difference versus other materials.
30–50 Year Lifespan
Premium vinyl siding is built to handle Missouri's full range — sub-zero winters, 100°F summers, heavy rain, and UV exposure. Most major brands back their products with 30–50-year limited warranties, many of which are fully transferable to new homeowners.
50+ Colors & Styles
Vinyl siding comes in dozens of profiles — lap, Dutch lap, board & batten, shake, and more — in over 50 factory-applied colors. Whether your home is a classic colonial in Kirkwood or a modern farmhouse in Chesterfield, there's a vinyl profile that fits it perfectly.
Vinyl Siding Profiles We Install in St. Louis
Vinyl siding comes in multiple profiles to suit any architectural style. Here are the most popular options Meridian installs across the metro area — all available in a wide range of colors to match your home's character.
Traditional Lap (Clapboard)
The classic horizontal profile. Overlapping panels create a clean, timeless look that suits colonial, ranch, and craftsman homes. Available in 3.5" to 6" exposure widths — wider exposure for a more contemporary feel. The most commonly installed vinyl profile in St. Louis.
Dutch Lap
A subtle notch cut into the top edge of each panel creates a shadow line that adds depth and dimension to your exterior. Popular for traditional homes where you want slightly more visual texture than standard lap without adding complexity to the installation.
Board & Batten
Vertical siding panels with a wide board-and-narrow-strip pattern. Increasingly popular for modern farmhouse and contemporary builds across St. Louis. Pairs well as an accent on gable ends or upper story walls combined with horizontal lap siding below.
Insulated Vinyl
Foam-backed vinyl panels that add R-2 to R-4 insulation value to your exterior walls. Especially beneficial for older St. Louis homes with minimal wall insulation. Reduces thermal bridging and can noticeably lower heating and cooling costs year-round — the premium that pays for itself.
Our Vinyl Siding Installation Process
As experienced siding contractors in St. Louis, we follow a structured process on every job — protecting your home and guaranteeing a clean, durable installation that holds up for decades.
Free On-Site Estimate
We measure your home's exterior precisely, assess the existing siding and substrate condition, and discuss style and color options. You receive a detailed written estimate with no vague ballpark numbers. Call 314-952-4158 or email us to schedule.
Material Selection
We walk you through profile options, color samples, and thickness grades. We explain the honest difference between standard vinyl and premium insulated vinyl so you can make the choice that fits your budget and energy goals — no upselling for the sake of it.
Tear-Off & Substrate Inspection
We remove the existing siding and inspect the house wrap, sheathing, and flashing underneath. If we find rot, moisture damage, or missing flashing, we address it before a single new panel goes up. Skipping this step is how shortcuts become callbacks — we don't skip it.
Professional Installation
Vinyl siding must be installed with proper expansion gaps — panels nailed too tightly will buckle when Missouri heat causes them to expand. Our crews are trained to manufacturer specifications, which is required to keep the product warranty valid. Every corner, trim piece, and seam is done right the first time.
Final Walkthrough & Full Cleanup
Before we leave your property, we walk the entire exterior with you, inspect every seam and corner, and make sure you're satisfied. We haul away all old siding, packaging, and debris — your yard will be cleaner than we found it.

Vinyl Siding vs. James Hardie Fiber Cement
Meridian installs both products. Here's our honest side-by-side comparison so you can choose based on what matters most to your family — not just the price tag.
| Category | Vinyl Siding | James Hardie Fiber Cement |
|---|---|---|
| Installed Cost | ✓ $8–14 per sq ft | ⚠ $14–22 per sq ft |
| Maintenance | ✓ Wash annually — never paint | ⚠ Repaint every 7–15 years |
| Lifespan | ⚠ 20–40 years | ✓ 30–50+ years |
| Fire Resistance | ⚠ Combustible (melts and burns) | ✓ Non-combustible (Class 1A) |
| Hail & Impact Resistance | ⚠ Can crack in severe hail | ✓ Resists 1.75" hail impacts |
| Missouri Weather | ✓ Moisture-proof, no rot | ✓ Moisture-resistant, no rot |
| Color & Style Options | ✓ 50+ colors, factory-applied | ✓ Paintable, realistic wood look |
| Warranty | ✓ 30–50-year limited | ✓ 30-year product warranty |
Bottom line: Choose vinyl for maximum value, zero-maintenance ownership, and a clean result that lasts. Choose James Hardie if longevity, fire resistance, or impact performance are your top priorities. Meridian installs both — call 314-952-4158 for an honest recommendation for your specific home.
What St. Louis Homeowners Say About Our Vinyl Siding Work
Real feedback from homeowners we've served across the St. Louis metro area.
"We replaced 25-year-old aluminum siding on our two-story colonial with vinyl lap siding. The Meridian crew was professional and fast — they finished in three days and the color we picked looks even better than the sample. Neighbors keep asking who did it."
— Sarah M., Ballwin, MO
"After last spring's hail cracked several panels on my old vinyl, I called Meridian for an estimate. They were straightforward — told me to upgrade to thicker insulated vinyl for our area and walked me through why. No pressure, just honest advice. The new siding looks great and I feel a lot better about the next storm."
— Mike T., St. Charles, MO
"I got quotes for both vinyl and Hardie board. Meridian took the time to explain the real tradeoffs — not just push the more expensive option. We went with premium vinyl because the maintenance-free aspect was most important to us. Job was done in three days and the finished product looks fantastic."
— Jennifer R., Webster Groves, MO
