    These are outstanding videos! Thank you for taking the time to share your expertise and knowledge. I’ve been doing woodworking for many years (mostly home projects from my garage shop) and was always interested in learning about vinyl siding. My house could use a renovation to this end and after watching, it seems like a project I could handle. May sound crazy but what seems to be the biggest challenge is contending with scaffolding and that whole element. Wondering what it would cost to rent and how long it would take one person to do a two story house. Probably a job that’s a bit too much for me.

From what I understand I can keep my clapboard, which is in good shape, and put a layer of foam insulation over it before going through the normal process of installing the vinyl siding.

  • @stephenremo9200
    @stephenremo9200 2 года назад +2

    Easiest way to find your angle is to measure your siding size and use a square to make a mark at that size on the panel below then measure over to the Jay from mark . You should always know your siding size anyway for an up and over or any other situation where you might have to measure to make your siding match up

Under the old aluminum siding is wood siding with furring strips. When installing the new siding on top of the wood siding do we have to use both the furring strips and foam board to create the flat surface for the new siding? Or can we use just one, the strips or the foam boards? And which one would be better to use? Thank you

I got the part where you used undersill trim beneath the window, but what about the sides and top of the window; does the siding just butt against it? What about around the door; do I use J channel? Thank you!

    • @TheExcellentLaborer
      @TheExcellentLaborer  2 года назад +4

      You do not put anything at the sides in the tops of the window other than J channel if it is not a new constructed window. But new construction windows have the J channel built around them already. The door is just J channel yes. You are welcome!. Good luck on your project.
