We've never done a siding job but learning new skills is part of the fun up here. The key to the whole thing is to get the starter strip on the bottom exactly level, and matching the lines on all 3 adjoining sides. We had to undo that starter strip 3 times!
It's also like a jigsaw puzzle; you do the frame and then fill in the frame with different size pieces. Of course, there's inside corners, outside corners, J-channel, F-channel, drip edge, and ladders to deal with. But eventually you get more confident and the puzzle picture emerges. We did so much tramping on the grass that the final step was to till up the packed soil and lay down some sod (also a first for us). So, the job was really siding and sodding! Come on over for a closeup look ---- chestnut grain vinyl on clean white trim. Not bad for a couple of amateurs?
