[quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's really an installation issue in regards to the flapping. I think the newer vinyl, even if it's the cheaper vinyl, is probably better than the old vinyl that may have been used decades ago, like our house, in terms of rigidity. The vinyl should basically be hanging and so when there are gaps where the vinyl can lift or be moved by the wind, there starts the flapping. I think the newer vinyl probably has a better fit and would have less "sound" in windy areas. In any case, I think we had some very cheap old vinyl on our house. I was originally thinking we would get vinyl because of what I had read on the web about Hardiplank costs, but when we got the competitive quotes and drove around and looked at houses in the area that the contractors did, we picked Hardiplank and got to decide on the color, trim, etc. based on what we saw.
