      Great job and great way of explaining the process and details in an easy to understand level. And great attention to details with the caulking, and pre-drill to nail. Awesome Job!!

    For me, the ideas in th-cam.com/users/postUgkxAfqpMLyFn37qcqUl0FAzqkkycQeXqrhP Plans were a starting point for building different sheds . Ryan gives ideas that allow an individual to draw nicest conclusions into the design and building of his or her own shed.

    Feels great doing it yourself. You save so much money now, not to mention how hard it is to even find someone good to do the work, it is not even worth having others do it anymore.

    Little tip for your frost free hose bibb. Slightly slope the hose bibb so it fully drains out when you close the valve. That way it works as intended and won’t free up during a cold snap.

    They make chop saw and circular saw blades designed specifically for the Hardie board planks. One of the main features is they cut way down on dust and dangerous kick back of the saw.

    Projects like these give several homeowners and DIY the confidence and courage to take on a siding project. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. I watched the whole thing, but I didn't really see or hear you talk about how you corrected the root cause of the water damage in the first place. I assume you had to replace the rotted backer-boards. I also did not see if you took the time to correctly flash the window, which could have been the source of your previous failure. People still use the black tar house wrap. Probably OK, but there are better materials recommended by the board manufacturers which are not terribly expensive compared to having to come back in 10 years to rip out the wall again. In anycase, good job and thanks for sharing your experience.

    Great video. My son built me a 3 sided 12x12 lean to shed attached to the back of my house, then he left me to do the siding. Fortunately, I only have 1 door and NO windows. It’s strictly a storage room. Don’t even have power inside it. I thought that I might let a carpenter do it for me until I got bids ranging from $1700 to $2800! Made up my mind to do it myself, thanks for the info.

    I think you did a good job sir. It’s your house. You saw a problem and fixed it yourself. Took the time while doing it to record the job. Gives others like myself an idea of what we are getting into. Yes it might not have been professionally done. As for all these professionals stating you should have done this or that. Even though they might be trying to help out all I am seeing is guys who are being negative towards a guy who wanted to fix something himself who knows he could do the job himself just as good as a crew from some professional company. Because I have seen some of the so called professional companies crews. The only one who knows exactly how to work on things will not be on the job site instead he/she will be out biding on jobs or vacationing somewhere. Thanks again sir on your video. And I guess if you have to do other parts of the house you will have all the professional inputs from this comment section to do it better then their crews. God bless

    Oh if all contractors had your perfectionism. Actually I came here looking how to cut already installed hardie board in order to install an awning bracket. But stay for the whole thing even tho it was a different tutorial. Good video and pleasant to watch. I didn’t think to put flashing behind my boards when I installed them. 🥴 I’ll know next time.

  • @josephtucker3134

    Just a couple items: The house should have a house wrap with dimples or water creases to breath. All cuts should be painted. The corners, (not joints) should be caulked with Quad color match, un-tooled (per manufacture's warrantee). The butt joints we back caulk with clear Dap. The existing siding looks like an LP wood siding and is of very good quality. the usual reason for failure of this siding is water getting behind it. This can be because of the original install was incorrect, or there is a water leak of some sort. Now if there is a water leak allowing water behind the product, this will create the same issue with your brand new Cement board siding in the same fashion. good luck

    • @MovieMakingMan
      @MovieMakingMan 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Do you use flashing behind each butt joint?

    • @josephtucker3134
      @josephtucker3134 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes. We usually paint it black or siding color so it can disappear when the siding shrinks.

    I wish I had those clamps when I did my siding. I hung a lot of those twelve foot planks alone, without clamps. It took some ingenuity.
    But I used an air nailer. Actually a framing nailer. That helps but hammers are fine for smaller jobs
    Good video

    Our house that we live in; we subcontracted and built a lot of it ourselves over 24 years ago. It is a two story home with brick and Hardie board. Our Hardie board siding still looks and performs great. It takes paint well, and cleans off gently. Many people compliment our siding. It is expensive but worth the money.

    @kenpage950 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not bad , and maybe better than most. Rover ron is right on the proper installation for JH siding. See if you can put some thin plastic or copper/alum/steel shim in between the strip and the house. this will form a slight weep hole so water may pass if present. A shim every 4 feet in between nails in the strip will be better than nothing. The clamps a less flexible on the smaller size JH siding, anyway 3 months and I'm on my last wall.

    pretty good video on a non professional putting in siding. I'm a non pro who has done about 10 structures with Hardie and other brands. Here are a couple comments. 1. yeah, there are other clamps out there, cheaper and maybe better. 2. I really recommend stainless siding nails for Hardie Board. Cement is hard on steel. Rust will happen and then discolor the paint where the siding is. I use a nail gun with Stainless nails. 3. For Hardie trim, DEFINITELY use a stainless brad nailer. Won't have to countersink or putty even. (16 gauge is great, but 18 is ok too). Surprisingly, the brads hold Great on 1" thick trim. 4. yes, quite worthwhile to put on flashing at joints. I typically use peel and stick flashing for those places. Easier and faster than AL, but AL is fine. 5. As to caulking, YES, he did it well, but I don't use a finger to smooth it out. Use a putty knife. If you use a finger then it often leaves a bit too much in the "wood pattern" finish of the board. Then that "smear" shows up in the paint. Hardie is such a great product for holding paint. You paint 1/4 as often with Hardie as with wood. So might as well make that paint look good! 6. For Cutting the Hardie, I have a Kett shear, that works pretty well. But when you use that it makes a lot of mess so spread out a tarp below the place you are cutting to collect the mess. I also use a hardie blade in my chop saw. Hardie dust is not great, but with a mask, it is ok especially if the wind is pulling it away. A chop saw is way faster and more accurate for the great majority of cuts. I use the angle grinder sparingly. Too much dust.
    Still, his video is great. Pretty much anyone can do it if they are careful. The results are great. You will paint WAY less often.
