This guy is a natural Expert. I don’t know if he teaches at the college. He is calm, good voice slow and clear explanation, and starts from the begging for everyone to top for professional people. I enjoy his expert explanation. Thank you sir. GOD BLESS YOU.
I teach on TH-cam . LOL.
No matter what "tutorials" I watch on TH-cam, I always come back to Shannon. Thanks, bud. You're the real deal.
Thanks Dewayne...why waste time somewhere else? LOL
Me too shannon. Keep it up!
Yes! I put my roof on thanks primarily to Shannon.
He's either a natural teacher or, has had good experience teaching others. Starts just at the level of anyone who should attempt to do something like this, sticks to the subject, and shows or tells you just what you need to know. Great job.
+dnsmithnc My only experience teaching is here on youtube with these videos.
+HouseImprovements You rock! thanks for the lesson.
You should cover your js with your window casings.and also you should run your last course then put j upto siding and run soffit its a much cleaner look
Great job explaining!, man, you could teach a group at any technical school with no problem!, congratulations for that ability, a natural gift man, great job!.
@@HouseImprovements Years ago, I wrote instructions for setting up and operating manufacturing equipment. One day, I got the idea to videotape the process and then created a comic book from the video. On some of these videos, I am tempted to make my own comic book so I will have these instructions actually out on my project.
I like this guy, not only does he show you the correct way to do something but he explains certain details that are important. Great video thank you!
***** Yeah my wife and I are general contractors so we do all kinds of things, some of them for the first time. We watched this and his soffit/fascia video and we've found Shannon very informative. Terrific communicator.
Guy seams verry nice .but for the record you never put accsesories on b4 you get your starter line ... What if your lines lower than you put your corners
lol....you wrote SEAMS like a nice guy. I get it.
actually, I wanted top see how he finished off the drip cap and top of the window
I'm assuming he already knew where he was going to put the 'starter strip and worked the vertical trim pieces on from that point and up.
I love how this guy explains things, he takes the time to explain every detail, he doesn't use a go pro camera like other guys do, he doesn't do time lapse, I get dizzy watching videos with go pro cameras. Keep doing these videos just like this one, they are very well made and very informative. Great job, I'm learning a lot from your videos, keep up the good work. 👍
What an incredible time we live in! As an older woman who is a full time caregiver to my disabled husband,I am so grateful that you take the time to educate us DIY 'ers! I must do things myself as every penny counts and our old wooden house needs lots of work. Thanks for the great video and teaching, I think I may be able to handle doing this with such great info! Blessings!
Good luck Kimberly
This is simply the very BEST how-to vinyl siding video anywhere. Shannon is personable and calm and really knows the work. Well done!
I don't think I have enough superlatives to describe how good this is as an instructional video. EXCELLENT. Very thorough, and extremely well presented. Thank you! Gives me all I need to tackle a similar job by myself.
I was nervous about trying this myself, but Shannon describes the process in a clear understandable manner. This is one of the best How-to-Do videos on TH-cam. Thanks!
What an excellent video. Lots of valuable tips from his experience; speaks slowly; doesn't repeat things over and over and over. He covers a lot of information, but new facts continue to emerge. Great job! I feel confident to be able to install siding for the first time now! Thanks.
We are building a garage and watching Shannon has been very helpful. He not only explains step by step but also gives extra hints along the way.
This guy is incredible! Explains everything easily and thoroughly. A true craftsman as he has an eye for detail and quality.
I built my entire shed from start to finish watching this guys videos. Turned out fantastic. Thanks.
11 years and this video still useful. A big shot out to this great teacher
I've watched a bunch of your videos today alone just because of how well you explain things in detail, along with tips. The key for newbie DIYers like me is that we need people like you that don't we know certain things. You start us off from scratch, and I thank you for your that!
By far, the BEST how-to video I've ever seen on any topic! No rambling, unnecessary intro or background or self stroking of ego, just clear concise information from the very start. The video answered all of the questions and concerns I had about how to install vinyl siding in the near future on a garage. Thank You! Keep teaching us!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You are a natural at teaching, this is one of the absolute best DIY instructional videos I've seen.
Thanks
best 30 min videos,,, we need more people and videos like this, subscribed 👍
This guy is a natural at making videos!!!!! One of the best videos I have ever watched. He is crystal clear, informative, he goes at the perfect pace, he is down to earth and definitely gives you the confidence to tackle this project. Honestly bro THANK YOU!!!! MUCH CONTINUED SUCCESS TO YOU!
These videos are fantastic. Shannon shows all the important steps and doesn't assume that you know anything, so it's very easy to follow step-by-step.
Crystal clear great instructions - one of the best how-to videos I've seen on youtube. Thank You!
Used your videos to help my very first siding install, a 12x14 shed. Everything went very well, and all the little tips and tricks played in my head as I needed them, especially the measurements for angled roofing. It was the right information, at the right level, delivered in a manner that really stuck with me. Mucho thanks
This is the 5th or 6th video I've seen Shannon share showing do it yourselfers like me complete the job quickly and efficiently! Thank you Shannon, youve save me multiple times
I love your repair and installation videos. I’m young and I’m a home owner. You have helped me install and repair stuff around my house! Your videos are always detailed . Keep up the good work.
Great video! I did'nt realize the importance for subtracting 1/4 of an inch for expansion. This video gave more of an insight on how to do vinyl siding. Thanks!
This is the best how to video I have watched. You made it real easy to install the siding. Your explanation is thorough and very clear for a rookie like me. Thank you for this bud.
Shannon I watched several of your videos. This one also was Great. You speak slowly and without unnecessary confusing terms. I’m reinstalling my siding from a patio to under a deck and I need to raise up th J channel for drainage off the wall . You did it the same way I had thought it would work the best . I’m a Old DIY Guy . Many thanks
This was a great video. My siding is messed up from the people who installed it, wavy everywhere, parts falling off. Was good to see there are people out there that know what they are doing, just watching this helped me realize where they messed up on my house.
Shannon - Thanks for this and all your great DIY videos. You are practical and professional. Now I'm gonna get started siding my house!
Hey Shannon, just wanted to say THANKS for all your videos! I've literally built a 8 x 8 shed start to finish with your videos. Installed a 4ft wide roll up door, designed a hip roof, installed aluminum soffit and facia, and of course, vinyl siding. All your videos are extremely well documented. Thanks again for providing such great videos!
I'm a brick mason by trade , and trying to get my place fixed up to be more easily maintained as I age. I have a simple 16' x 16' storage shed I am putting vinyl siding on and in my area, you can't hire the work out. For that reason, I really appreciate the how to videos on vinyl. You make it very easy and clear what and what not to do....Thanks!
I've done this years ago. But I have a project coming up. Thought I would refresh my self. Got some new ideas. Thank you.
After watching this I'm confident to start applying for siding jobs. Thank you, sir!
Shannon your a godsend. Thanks to your channel I've save thousands of dollars. You speak simply which exactly what I need. I was born feet first so I'm a little slow. Thanks man!! Keep these videos coming. My wife has a honeydo list as long as my arm.
Excellent ideas for someone who does not know what they're doing I myself have been doing this for years 48
And I can still learn something new everyday thanks for sharing
Siding under my window separated from the house in the heat. Installer didn't use the undersill or shim trick you mentioned here to keep it tight. Now I know how to fix his work. Your vids are just fantastic.
Shannon's videos are awesome. I had never installed vinyl siding before, so I looked for information on how to do it. Thanks to Shannon's videos, I have completed my shed siding job and it went like clock work. I highly recommend his videos.
Me either! In 1978 or 1979, my dad and his friend installed the sidings. Still beautiful condition ever since!. My house had real sloppy job on the south side of the house and the garage and I intend to install it the right way. I wish there could be seamless sidings looking perfect from any angles. I bought my house last year.
Thanks very much my 1st time building a 12x12 shed with vinyl siding watch your videos many times to make sure I got it right. Great videos easy to follow, Cheers!!
Thanks for explaining the how and why for everything there is with Vinyl Siding. It's easy to skip steps when you've done it a million times. I appreciate the video, great job.
I've learned over the years. Any home improvement project... Go straight to Shannon! You'll save yourself
Countless hours of surfing "how to's", and a ton of money! Thanks Shannon you're the best!
Thanks Sandra!
You make the best how-to videos, keep it up!
I agree man
Hes.a really good teacher
And has a way with words
I agree this guy is absolutely amazing! I’ve built my siding business off his teachings!
Hi, Shannon... thanks for taking the time to make this VERY informative video, you are very informative and knowledgeable.
I love his attention to detail. Also the fact that he gives you examples of other ways to doing it.
Thank you...contractor wanted a $1,000 plus materials to replce siding on back of kitchen wall(10×16).after watching video,i bought materials and tools ($240),and did the job myself. Learned something new and saved my self $900.thank you shannon. I find your videos really enjoyable and educational. U are a true craftsman and attention to detail shows. Greatly appreciated..
Glad you saved some cash by DIYing it yourself
Great information. Clearly explained. But I must say, Shannon, you are an outstanding educator! If you ever want to educate young people in the building trades, you will be epically successful.
Very detailed how to, one of the best I have seen - thanks for sharing
really appreciate all the knowledge you put in our hand , sometimes things are easier than people know but knowing it make a big difference, thanks for this video, the best for y’all
Just got done installing soffit, facia and siding on my 1500 sq. ft. house. Thanks to Shannon it came out great. His tips saved the day. My only challenge was trying to find nailing edges sometimes. My garage was at a lower level and this video demonstrated how to handle the different heights. Great video for the semi-handy.
I'm thinking of doing the same. About how long did it take you to do the soffits, fascia, and siding?
I wish this guy taught other subjects. He is AWESOME. The siding came off my house during high wind and this video has supplied all the knowledge I need to confidently fix it myself.
I can help also on this comment board, this guy taught me back when I was an apprentice with these videos.
I do siding everyday all day.
Simple straight forward instructions, no hassle. Just great. Thanks !
Been doing carpentry and the trades a long time. Master of none. But I do a good job because I care. This guy has all the characteristics most of my bosses along the way lacked. He doesn't assume you know a step or procedure, he shows and explains every step without extraneous words or information. So you can actually watch his 1/2 instruction video and feel CONFIDENT not confused. Also, his demeanor is engaging not necessarily entertaining. I'll watch Red Green for that! So thank you fella. I'm going out today to get started!!
WHAT A GREAT TEACHER , SERIOUSLY ...THANK YOU FOR THE TUTORIAL ADVICE. I AM HAVING TO REPLACE THE SIDING AT MY HOME IN THE BOSTON AREA. THIS IS WHAT BRINGS ME TO YOUR VIDEO. AFTER WATCHING A FEW OTHERS BEFORE YOURS IN MY OPINION, YOU ARE BY FAR THE BEST. YOU EXPLAIN IT ALL AND YOU JUST TO ME SEEM LIKE YOU KNOW IT ALL SO, AGAIN THANK YOU AGAIN FOR SHARING YOUR SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE...
ALL THE BEST,
MICHAEL
+Michael Cunha Thanks Michael, we strive to provide the most indepth videos that we can. Did you see our second vinyl siding video? It deals with siding gable ends. th-cam.com/video/_R2TLGR3usE/w-d-xo.html If you did not already please click the "subscribe" and "thumbs up" buttons we would love to keep providing you with free helpful DIY project advise.
I'm about to save myself $2,000 and do this shit myself. Thanks for the information.
+06jj28 Just remember that the next time the siding guys give you a $5,000 quote to do your house. I did 3 sides of my house for less than $1,500 last year. I know a man's gotta make a living but $3500 for 2 guys for 2 days is a little much.
+Altair Ibn-La Ahad Yes it is much cheaper to do it yourself if you can, but not all people can or have houses that are easy to do. In hiring any contractor you need to get at least 3 estimates from reliable contractors that have multiple references. It is also important to check on the contractor with your states builders board to see if he is licensed and if he has any claims against him/her.
Altair Ibn-La Ahad there are a lot more expenses to running a legitimate business than a simple wage. payroll taxes, equipment maintenance, licensing fees, WCB, Professional Associations, on going certifications regarding safety etc. Not to mention there can be warranty costs, and no pension/benefits of any kind for the contractor. Also, installing the siding is only half of it at best. proper installation of the envelope (homewrap, dripcaps, and flashing of all types). i have seen so many jobs with improper moisture management issues. there is a huge difference between do it yourself/handyman work and a professional job.
Give me a call when you screw your homes up . Next you guys will start making your own bass boats to fish out of 😁 .
2000 that's all!
The “overlapping joint tip” was well worth watching the entire video! Makes it look like a pro job for sure. Great video.
one of the best channel on TH-cam for homeowners who do home projects and are looking for solutions.. many thanks!!
Dude, I think you're about the best diy teacher on yt...good job, thanks!
Thanks Mike
I just finished the vinyl on one side of my house and very happy with the results so far and you helped alot!
good work
good work
Great video! Almost makes me feel like I could do this.
Great video, clear detail, encouraging to the first--timer, as well as excellent refresher for someone doing a siding job a few years after the first, and has forgotten a lot of detail--like me! Thanks so much!
Thank you for posting this video on putting up vinyl siding. This was the only video I needed to watch and it explained everything I needed. Shannon's comprehensive reviews covered everything, including what size/type of nails to use !!! Thanks Shannon.
Thanks for the video your a lifesaver!
glad to help
Actually I guess I missed mentioning that, you would add a J channel sitting on top of the drip cap.
Thanks I was trying to place where you put the j channel with the drip cap. Joe
very good teacher , and he takes the time to help people understand , thank you so much God Bless you
One of the best how to videos I've seen. Very detailed and extremely patient while discussing the process. Awesome job!
I liked your video I didn’t see how you waterproofed the TYPAR vapor barrier/house-wrap to the weather-strip you sealed under the window? On the west coast if we don’t tape the house wrap to; the weather-strip that’s sealed under the window or to the window itself, the installation WILL LEAK. I like to install a plywood blade and my saw backwards which gives me a smooth cut and eliminates possible chipping
just realized how crappie of a job the guy did that installed my siding... thanks for the Video!
Same here.
most siding installers are terrible...
Walmart
THANK YOU. I've never done siding before. Simply after watching your videos, my house (albeit slow because it's been hot) is starting to look new. Piece by piece.
Fantastic video... Thank you for walking through & detailing each step, followed up by an example of how it's done! I feel confident in being able to tackle siding on my house now. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos!
"Hi, I'm Dave Turin from Gold Rush, today we're going to learn how to install vinyl siding."
+Charles Jones There is a resemblance , I must admit.
He's the better twin brother of Dave. Gold Rush dave is a D**k.
170 people cant follow directions nice vid though thanks
A real guy with true talent in his way of teaching. I will save this video for my future project. Thanks and God bless you.
Awesome video Shannon!! Thanks for the great explanation. A friend just asked me to help him build a shed and the only part I've never done is the vinyl siding, but now I know how thanks to you.
Cheers
I do various forms of home improvements myself and from what I see hes good,however,he should explainthay when using a saw that i turn the blade around,or it will chip the panel your cutting u can also cut metal that way.he also hasn't shown how to do soffit. I know how but he should show that...not good..c mon dude.
He has a video on soffit and fascia as well. It's about 14 minutes long and very informative.
Excellent demonstration. Any questions that came into my mind got answered almost as quickly as I thought of them.
He did a GREAT job of showing and explaining how to do each area, as well as explaining why. I'm ready to tackle my siding. Thank you!
Thanks.
A humble teacher. No show off.
I followed all 5 videos, with your tricks and my experience and vision I’m changing trades now, thank you.
The point you bring up about two people nailing on the same job is an important one. Me and another guy I work with every day nail siding differently and continually have to watch our corners to make sure we are still lined up. It’s VERY easy to get off to where it’s visible to the eye
Nice direct style with enough critical detail to help someone with no experience. Thanks, Tom
Great video as well as the others you've posted. Explains everything so you understand an shows everything and teaches you little tricks of the trade. This guy is great 👍👍
You cover wide range of home repairing tips ! I enjoy them all very much!
Thanks Shannon again. Love the little details and the easy way you make all projects doable. I am doing a room addition and at every next step I find your videos helpful. Your my go to guy.
Great video! Really nice description of everything. I'm so glad you didn't just say what some of the tricks of doing this job are but actually demonstrated how to apply the trick/technique. This video actually makes me think I can do this. Thanks!
By far one of the most informative videos I've watched on any project I needed info on. The video quality is great and you gave great instructions. This is a great help to me. Thank you!
I like this guy, not only does he show you the correct way to do something but he explains certain details that are important. Great video thank you! I'll repeat Travis's comment and add thank you for your excellent instruction. Dave in Canada.
Hi. I'm back to listen to more of your exceptional teaching. I'm watching you from southern California.
it's a boat time somebody made a good siding video. Thanks Shannon.
I want to thank "you tube" for the how to videos, & I want to thank the people who take the time to make them. They were very helpful & I feel more confident about doing what ever I need to do after watching a video on the project I'm doing
Enjoy watching all your videos and the beautiful Canadian countryside. Keep up the great work, you make it look so simple.
Thanks for posting...one of the best "How to" videos I've seen online so far. Keep up the great work.
Honestly, this is immensely informative. I'm going back to school for 2nd year carpentry soon and these videos are so many steps above what I learn on the job. Thank Shannon.
School can be overrated sometimes you just got to get your hands dirty. Its good to have basic common sense and fine measuring skills though.
Thank you Shannon, great helpful video 👍. I hope you and your family are doing great, and staying healthy and safe.
Wow! I just watched this as most people on here want to attempt to do this on my own due to financial reasons. Great video and super easy to follow. Thank you good sir!
Very well made tutorial. You did a great job explaining everything. Clear and concise. Thanks man
I just wanted to say "Thanks" for your video. I put up vinyl siding on a wall I put up to enclose my patio; the vinyl siding looks great! Your instructions were extremely helpful. Thanks!
Thank you for explaining this! I'm helping my father work on his house and don't have much prior knowledge in this area, so your videos are extremely helpful :)
Another great video. Thank you for all your tips and insight. Your videos helped me build my deck with confidence. I shall tackle siding the same way. I really appreciate the time you take to go over as many details as possible.
The best explanation from all videos about vinyl siding!Thanks.
Thank YOU for this insightful video. We've just had our house done here in Florida and I see several errors in the installation. I had my own ideas that it wasn't being done properly, now I'm sure it wasn't. It's nice to see a professional at work and be able to see the insights as to a job done properly...Thanks again!
This is the first video I've ever commented on and I've been watching for years! Great job man, you are a good teacher and it's apparent that you are a professional that takes pride in your work. God Bless.
Shannon is the best TH-cam video maker. He can me a great instructor for students! I will not do the wall job in my life. But morning wake up i have watched his video for more than 24 minutes. His video is better than holywood movie!
