We bought an older white house that has vinyl siding two years ago, and it’s gotten dirty from construction and misc. I would rent a pressure washer myself and do it, but I’ve heard if you don’t know what you’re doing (I don’t) it can be bad, so I’d like to hire a proffesional, but I have no idea how much it would cost. The house is medium sized, two story, sort of irregular shape. Any advice would help! Thanks

I own a very old home and the old siding is that wide stuff that looks like compressed wood squeezed together to make about a 12 inch piece of siding. I am female, single and own my own home. I am not sure whether to have the old siding removed or how this all works. Any suggestions appreciated. I think vinyl would make my house nicer.

The vinyl siding on my house used to be white, after years of neglect (from the previous owner) it is now stained, discolored, and generally unattractive. I have seen one picture of the house from many years back that leads me to believe that the vinyl siding is not original to the 1976 built home. I would like to remove some of the siding to see if I have a viable option. If there is no other siding underneath the vinyl I will have to leave it up until an option becomes available. Can I remove some of the vinyl to investigate, then put it right back up if I need to?

Vinyl Siding over aspahlt shingles. Row home built in 1900. Siding needing to be replaced is in back. I do not want the hassle of pulling down, but will hammering in 1/2″ insulation board then vinyl siding be detremental?

We have made our porch into a room. Leaving the vinyl siding (for now) on the wall. I want to hang a big poster on it to cover the siding. What will stick. It is not a framed poster. I just want to tape it on (so to speak).

I have a double wide mobile home that is 22feet by 60 feet long, How many squares do I need to put vinyl siding on it? It has they old, i think tin with a styrofoam back glued to it, under that is just black paper. Do I need to put something over the black paper or can I just go over it?

justcurious asked:


I am going to be removing the vinyl siding on my house to repair and replace some of the sheathing behind it, as the contractor used 1/2″ blue foam insulation instead of OSB, per N.C. code. I need to know what is the best and safest way to reach the 2nd floor area and gable. Ground to peak is about 30 feet. Anyone have suggestions for what they use on new construction of homes?
