I mean the WHOLE THING. We’ll discuss and show EVERY topic that you need to side your own house. I talk about and SHOW all the steps to using Smartside trim and Hardiboard fiber cement siding on my parents’ house.
I’m showing how I started doing the siding, as well as all the huge time saving tips that I developed along the way.
I cover flashing, skirting boards, side trim, window trim, door trim, siding starter rows, siding installation, cutting fiber cement, rabbiting trim, drip cap, end dams, top trim and MORE.
I talk tools; including making some simple jigs that will make life much easier and more accurate.
I cover tricky areas like gable ends and those annoying spaces between second floors and first floor roofs.
Don’t want to watch the whole thing? I have the chapters below for easy reference.
