SIDING

Siding installation: what the scope should cover

Good siding work depends on the layers and details behind the finished surface.

Wall preparation

The scope should address removal, sheathing condition and preparation before new material goes on.

Water management

Ask how the water-resistive barrier and flashing integrate around windows, doors and penetrations.

Trim and finishing

Corners, soffits, fascia, openings, caulk and paint can materially affect the final scope.
