Kaycan | DaVinci Vinyl Siding & the Fade Factor (Part 1)
Editorial Update & Partnership Clarification — Updated 2026
This archived video reflects a historical product discussion and manufacturer relationship that existed during a much different period within the exterior remodeling industry. Since the original publication of this interview, Thrush & Son® has reevaluated numerous manufacturer relationships, installation standards, and long-term product expectations as part of our continued commitment to accountability, homeowner protection, and evolving industry performance standards.
At this time, Thrush & Son® no longer endorses, promotes, represents, or maintains any partnership affiliation with Kaycan Products or any affiliated siding products or brands associated with this historical discussion. While this content remains part of our educational archive and company history, it should not be interpreted as reflecting the current products, systems, partnerships, or recommendations utilized by our company today.

Since 1960, Thrush & Son® has built its reputation around something far more important than manufacturer marketing relationships — accountability. We firmly believe that manufacturers should stand behind the products they produce, the warranties they advertise, and the long-term expectations presented to homeowners investing significant money into their homes.
If a manufacturer relationship no longer aligns with our standards for responsiveness, product reliability, warranty support, transparency, innovation, or long-term homeowner protection, we will move in a different direction regardless of prior affiliations, certifications, awards, or dealer recognition. That commitment has guided our company for generations and continues shaping every decision we make today.
As a family-owned business serving homeowners throughout Dayton, Troy, Cincinnati, and the Miami Valley since 1960, our responsibility has never been to protect a corporate relationship — it has always been to protect the homeowner sitting across the table from us. Our company name is attached to every project we complete, and we take that responsibility seriously.
The exterior remodeling industry has changed dramatically over the decades. Product technology, installation practices, warranty structures, and homeowner expectations continue evolving year after year. Because of that reality, Thrush & Son® continuously evaluates the products, materials, and manufacturers associated with our projects to ensure they align with our current operational standards and long-term expectations for performance and accountability.
We believe integrity means being willing to evolve publicly when standards change. It means prioritizing long-term homeowner protection over corporate loyalty. It means recommending only the products and systems we would confidently install on our own homes and stand behind ourselves.
That philosophy is exactly why Thrush & Son® has remained family-owned and respected throughout the Miami Valley for generations.
Since 1960, Thrush & Son® has remained committed to craftsmanship, accountability, and exterior solutions designed to endure. From roofing and siding to replacement windows, gutters, doors, and storm restoration, our company continues helping homeowners throughout Dayton, Troy, Cincinnati, and the Miami Valley protect and improve what matters most.
Our approach has always remained simple: if we would not confidently install a product on our own homes or stand behind it long-term ourselves, we will not recommend it to our customers. That principle continues guiding our company decades later.
