About Siding

WantToLose asked:


We just had a garage built and now the siding doesnt quite match plus ours is quite old anyway. I’m wondering how hard it would be to re-do since the house already has vinyl siding on it? Or…if anyone else has another solution to make the house and garage match that would be great too. My garage is VERY white…and my house is an off white (I think because its old and now discolored). We’ve tried cleaning it professionally, but it didn’t work.

I bought my home a year ago. There were so many things I liked about it that I overlooked the fact that it’s covered in ugly vinyl siding. Most people around here seem to share my opinion of vinyl siding, so I think that removing it and repainting the house would probably slightly increase its value. Would this be very expensive? What if there’s some kind of problem with the wood siding that the previous owners used the vinyl to cover up?

BrawnzGuy asked:


My house has vinyl siding, and on the northern, shaded, parts of the house algae forms on the siding and I have to power-wash it a few times a year. Is there any coating or preventative spray that I can put on the siding to stop the algae from forming on there in the first place — or is it just as easy to power wash?
