    Not a DIY guy, but was researching the various types of vinyl siding, and I found this video extremely informative...so much so that I'm upping the thickness of what I want the contractor to install. Greatly appreciate your insights! Thank you! Subscribed and hit the notification bell.

    What a great video on paint research. I’m redoing my parents room and i was going back and forth on which primer and paint to choose from. Ultimately I went with the behr marquee since I used their staining paint this summer and I’ve been very happy with the quality of the durability of the product so figured if their fence staining is that good then their interior paint must be good as well- as the testa here prove it 👍🏻

    Menards is the best if you're a diy. Pay attention to the Clearance and the 11% off. As a one-time customer, ABC Supply will give you the "A" price list. At that price, you should just sit outside of ABC and wait for the truck with all the ladders and ask for a card.

  • @clh7312

    Just compared costs between Menards and ABC for CertainTeed siding exact same products and Menards was a little cheaper before the rebate. With the rebate I'll get a good chunk of change to spend at Menards on other projects. You also mentioned adding foam but up here in Michigan all I see is XPS and I am concerned that is too much of a vapor barrier then EPS and will just keep moisture in the walls since my vapor barrier should be facing in.

    Yup! I do have a 1970's home, and the aluminium sidling is got to go, I will also like the fact that we can get it whole sale, but I like the insultation sidling even better, I am in Georgia, can you tell me of a whole sale place to get what I am asking for?? and I am glad that I came across your show, very informative for a layman home owner.

    • @highmarkroof
      @highmarkroof ปีที่แล้ว

      I recommend rigid foam board over insulated siding. You can tape the seams, sealing the air envelope. Gives you a smooth surface to hang the siding. Plus it's usually cheaper material cost and faster Install

    Hello! This has been a great video and resource for me. Thank you! I had a question. I would prefer NOT to purchase from Lowes or Home Depot. However, the ABC Supply website says "As a distributor, we sell only products to licensed, professional contractors in the communities we serve." Are they going to give me a hard time if I try to go to one of the local ABC distributors to purchase materials? Do they check for a contractor account? How do I get around this? Seems a bit ridiculous. Maybe they don't stand by this rule depending on the site/location?

    I loved this video, great information. I was originally looking at engineered wood, KWP Eco-Side but now your bringing me back to the idea of vinyl. Question for you though, what are your thoughts on dark colours for vinyl? I am looking at doing a dark grey or almost black siding. I am concerned about two things, the potential for it to heat up and warp, and also for it to fade. Any thoughts on this? I am currently looking at ABTCO Timbercrest Plus Colorfast double 4 in there "manor" color.

It will be my first investment property and I want it to be right. Do you provide services to give a material checklist for new construction? I want to buy my own materials to make sure things are done with best quality.

    How would you nail vinyl siding over top of 1 1/2” Owens Corning foam board insulation?

    • @highmarkroof
      @highmarkroof ปีที่แล้ว

      1 1/2 is pretty thick r9 may be overkill for a wall. What about zip boards. I guess if I had to make it work I would use purlins or cover with osb. I have used 1/2 but you just grab 21/2 nails vs 2 in nails.

    One mistake I noticed you made on the video. It was the comparison of home depot siding to one of your suppliers. You said home depots carton had 1 square in the carton. That would be 12 pieces. It said on the spec. Sheet that it had 24 pieces in the carton. So when comparing your supplier and home depot it is wrong. Your comparing your suppliers 12 pieces to home depots 24 pieces. Home depot is actually cheaper in cost. But you also have to take into consideration that they are not the same thickness. Some good Info. Keep it up

    Insulated vinyl siding doesn’t actually work for heat loss and it stops the built in self venting and air drying function of working as it should.

    • @letsdiymyhome
      @letsdiymyhome  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My friend your not correct with the statement of heat loss any time you add some R-Value to the siding/wall it does in fact help some with heat loss, The backer board really is about keeping the panel straight not looking so cheap. As for self ventilation? who the hell says it does that? you must install house wrap/drainage plane to control moisture. Make it a great day thank you for the comments

      @@letsdiymyhome according to Joe Lstibureck of building science corp, the foam backed insulated vinyl siding doesn’t work well for insulation as it’s insulating capabilities are overstated. According to Fine Homebuilding Podcast, benefit of uninsulated vinyl siding is its self venting capability which makes it air dry behind it naturally, and this quality is undone by having a foam backer. It also attracts bugs under it. They both say insulated vinyl siding is a scam for the above reasons and doesn’t make sense. However, it is harder and straighter due to the foam behind it like you said. I’m no expert thought. Good day!

Today I'm on my third build for what we call a passive home google it. That has exterior insulation interior insulation and no heating or Cooling bills. I've been trying to be very respectful but just because you listen to somebody doesn't mean you're getting it all the facts go talk to a engineer. so this topic is officially closed . since you're insist I'm being right.

      Today its hard to say do to hyperinflation I would talk to a realtor. if you have Vinyl or masonite siding then your fine but anything else I would question it. Again this is my 2 cents.. Going form vinyl to steel or LP/Hardi can up the value. All this depends on location and many other factors this is why I say talk to a realtor. I hope this helps
