vinyl siding question?

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008
mr. y asked:


i know a lot of the tricks to doing vinyl siding .but what do you do when your using new construction windows that have the J-channel built in.when you slide the siding behind it what keeps the weather/water from getting between the siding and window?its not weather tight.if you seal around it doesn’t that affect the siding from being able to float or move so it won’t buckle.also ive been looking at a lot of newlt built houses in the area that are vinyl sided and have noticed a lot of them were done horribly,the siding was very wavy.i can under stand older houses being covered vinyl siding having waves/buckles in them,but new houses,whats going on?are they all like this because im paying more attention to it now that im siding or what.plus anymore hints at siding much appreciated
