HOW TO INSTALL VINYL SIDING

- This is a simple video of how to install vinyl siding. I know some steps are not exactly perfect but this is what I did to complete the siding on my garage and it's still in good shape.
Here are some corrections that should have been done for longevity of the siding installation.
Overlaps on the seams are a little to tight. There should be about 1 inch between the top lock separation. The siding usually will expand almost a 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch on a full panel.
I hope this video is helpful for you and thank you so much for watching.!
Picked the shortest video and believe it was exactly what I needed thank you
Thanks I appreciate that!
Same
Agreed I had some that spend way too much
Thanks for the simple and QUICK video. Showed the basics. Exactly what most people need.
Never did it before and just made $1000 on a job after this. Thanks
My man, I'm an 80s kid and you're like the Mr. Rogers of DIY. Thank you for being you!
:) anytime!
70s kid here...
Excellent! Look almost exactly like the job I’m doing, even the color. All the needed important info is there especially about looseness. No biography, just a quick slide show about your lifestyle. Very cool!
Thank you for explaining how to overlap the vinyl correctly. Having not done this before, it never would have occurred to me that the seams aren't visible when viewed from one angle versus another.
Excellent, thank you. I'm fixing a hole where the AC used to be and couldn't quite figure out what I was doing wrong. This cleared things up.
I am a woman and searching if I can do it with my old garage. With this video, I think I can try. I will let you know after Work lol
Nice video. To the point and soft spoken. Much better than the OEM videos.
Thanks! I appreciate that!
Gonna start putting the vinyl siding on my 10x12 work shed. Montreal weather with either the extreme heat or rain has been brutal. Thanks for the advice and always looking to support a Canadian TH-cam channel ❤❤
@@nore8141 thank you for the support!
Hey man thanks for passing the knowledge along to all of us out here. I didn’t have TH-cam I prob would have had a hard time being a small contractor.
Outstanding!
Greet’ns from The South of Michigan! Thank You so much for putting together such a simple, yet thorough video.
It appears as though you highlighted the critical stuff and omitted a lot of filler!
A lot of folks here in YT Land like to put out long vids in hopes of scoring higher view durations in their analytics.
Some of us are just meat and potatoes viewers. Just give us the good stuff... And you did!
Bless’ns to ya, Tedd
Random as hell on my TH-cam....and it was amazing. Thank you.
Thanks!
Thanks for keeping it simple! Tackling my project this weekend thanks to you!
I ADORE how much info you could put into four minutes. Other videos take half an hour to say all this. (Although your Fishing at the intro was nonsequitur.)
Man you gotta be kiddin me! You are a Master at this. THANK YOU SIR!
Thanks for the video!!
I’m repairing storm damage, replacing a portion of one wall. I do not need all the nitty-gritty, start to finish. Just wanted to supplement what i “know” by eyeballing the existing, undamaged portion. This was perfect; ya gave me just the confidence i needed to get TO IT! 👷🏻♀️👍
Your gaps between the lips leave atleast 1 inch for expansion cause when the heat hits the siding it’s gonna expand
Im am interior finish man. The crew doing the exterior no showed which is normal these days. I think i will do the siding. Your video showed all i need to know. Such a breeze compared to what im used to.
Excellent explanation of how to install vinyl siding. Would you also make a video on how to properly install the corner pieces ? Thank you!
This was very helpful. It would have been great to see how your corners and final top piece go on.
Good video. I like your concise but laid back approach. I do wish, however, that you had included a little more info. on the starter strip, specifically, how to install it correctly. I'm getting ready to start my first project and I understand it's important to get it level from the beginning and keep it level. Thank you.
I appreciate the feedback! As long as the starter strip is level you will be good, keeping in mind you can make small adjustments all the way up the wall if you see something out of line.
THANK YOU! This is exactly the tutorial I needed. Simple, detailed, and to the point!
Well done - all the techniques and essentials in under 5 minutes. Great job!
Great informative short & sweet video, thanks for the posting.
Simple. Qick. Easy. Thank you!
Good video with fantastic step by step instructional points. I was actually hoping to learn some of your tricks on how to do vinyl siding by yourself on a ladder, 2 story house.
Thanks for the info ...I just had flat garage roof repaired and now I am trying to understand the process of putting some vinyl back at the bottom it's 27 ft x 18" ....any help would be greatly appreciated
That was an excellent video.
What a great video! Thank you so much for showing how it's done. Could you show how to prepare for siding around a window and how you finish off at the top? I have a tool shed with one window in the center, with equal distance from the door and the end of the shed.
I did a flash video on that. Just go to my videos section and search "how to install siding around a window :)"
Thanks for this concise starter on vinyl siding! Going to attempt this in a few weeks.
Thanks for watching!
Great video…. I’m getting read to install some. This was helpful!

I wonder if I can do it myself or not .... I really plan on doing my home sometimes later.
If I can do it, you can do it :)
Great video btw
Thanks for sharing friend watching from Canada 🇨🇦 I'm planning to diy my siding wall how about the window it is hard to do?
Nice! And yes, you have to kind of work around it like a puzzle and cut all the pieces to fit. It's best to use some window trim as well.
Thank you gonna try it myself don't have the money for a pro 😮
Very well explained and concise
Great video, gave me the necessary info I was looking for. Thanks!

Nice work ,good instructions.
That was very helpful excellent video.
Good stuff buddy!
Very nice video. Informative and it gets right to the point. Thank you 😊😊
Nice boat thanks for the tutorial
What size nails, about 5 pieces of siding flew off and I think I could put them back by myself especially with this video - thank you
It's been so long since I did it but if you go to any hardware store just ask for shingle nails and they will provide you with the available sizes.
Best one so clear
Fantastic video and channel, thank you !
Any advice in replacing that corner piece? It's supposed to be done first you said, but for my repair the siding is already going to be on
Hmm...If the corner is damaged, it's really tough. you can probably rig up a fix of some sort. I don't mind offering some free advice. Send me a picture to my email at agdiy2021@gmail.com and I'll take a look at it.
quick and to the point thanks
Same color and style I used I also added a metal roof.
Good video thank you
Right to the point. Thanks
That was very helpful thanks 4 the video
Glad I could help!
Love the video easy for me too learn the method.
Nice, simple, no background music and he even used a level...hahahaha!!!
Hey nice video, one question, I am planning to use VOX siding and this manufacturer recommends to have a ventilation gap behind the pvc, by using some vertical wood pieces. How come you naild the pvc directly over the membrane? Thx
I think it might have something to do with the weather difference. In Nova Scotia it only gets super hot in the months of July and August the rest of the year it can be pretty brisk. If you live in a hot area applying siding might be different.
Thanks man. Very helpful
Thanks gonna try it myself
Where in the Maritimes are u? from i saw dirty Kent i knew it. I am in Nova Scotia and i need help with my facia and soffit Please help me i cant find useful people in this province
I am no longer in the Maritimes but I am sure no one will do this type of work for free. You may have to look on Kijiji to find a contractor or a construction team that will help.
Very Helpful Thanks!
thanks for the great video. I'm going to be siding a steel shipping container. how can I attach the siding since I can't nail it? ty for any assistance you can give.
That sounds like fun. I'm not sure what you would use for that. I didn't think shipping containers need siding? are you just doing it for "looks"?
@@AverageGuyDIY yes, for looks and to keep the neighbors from complaining. also plan to put a low pitched roof to protect the top and add a lean-to so I can park my tractor under it. after some research I think I'll run a top rail and bottom rail between the corner blocks. then I can nail my studs to that. unless I get a better idea. thanks again. 🙂
@@ezyjack826 That might work well!
Thanks man 👊🏻 sweet channel
Thanks!
Do you alternate or scatter the joints so all are not at the same place up the entire wall? How do you do that? Like wood flooring of a 3 board spacing pattern?
Yes that's the idea. It will happen automatically, just take full pieces of siding and mount them to the wall until the last one. The last one will most likely be too long so you will need to cut it. Use the cut piece to continue the wall by taking it back to the original starting place (above the fist piece you placed). This will create the pattern.
Wow thanks brother.
Is there a way to replace the corner piece? Mine has gotten damaged from a weedeater.
How do you (permanently) remove the bottom lap of siding? I plan on adding a 'water barrier' (foundation covering) up to the bottom of the second lap of siding. Can a starter strip be added after the fact?
This looks like a cool way have to try sometime have you ever tried lining your over laps stair steps ?
When I did this siding a few years ago I kinda had to learn on the fly. You should have the siding overlapping correctly. See the comments I left in the video description, with that being said it's still holding up just fine.
@@AverageGuyDIY I think it looks great and in the end that’s all that actually matters as long as she still holding
thanks teacher, God blessing...
Good job
What size roofing nails you recommend? 1"?
I'm trying to side a house that the previous owner had insulated on the exterior with Styrofoam sheets. How would I install the siding? Use screws instead of nails?
Good video
i'm going over a painted shed, do i need the backing paper? also, why didn't you show how to finish at the top?
It's like a puzzle as you go up to the top you must cut the pieces to shape. Same with around the windows and any other protruding objects. And actually I had a shed and we didn't use any Tyvek wrap at all. I just nailed the siding right to it. Honestly it just really depends on how you want to do it. Tyvek wrap however is always best for new construction to maintain the longevity of the structure.
You're awesome bruh.. ty..
Perfect vid
Great video
Thanks!
Also, use 1-3/4" siding nails nailed on the studs.
After further thought , just come to Youngstown Ohio and I'll teach you the right way.
how did you learn or get into learning how to install vinyl siding ? I am looking to do my own
Just learned it from TH-cam. Make sure to read the updated description notes for the corrections in this video. :)
Great video thank you
Hi, I’m currently in the market to buy a home. Found one that has vinyl siding. I had never come across a finish like this. Is it possible to remove and resurface the area with something else? Or do I have to keep it?
Yes vinyl siding is easy to take down. You can always refinish it with something else.
Thanks good video👍
That looks exactly like my vinyl! Where can I find it? Thanks
Yup it is Vinyl and can be purchased at any hardware store. I bought this stuff from Kent.
Thank you
