Do you need to sand cedar siding before staining?

• <div><p>If you buy new cedar, the process of cutting it usually roughs up the surface enough that it doesn’t require sanding. However, if you buy older cedar or you’re repurposing it from another application, it’s a good idea to sand it. This helps the stain settle into the grain, and results in a more uniform appearance. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain metal siding?

• <div><p>Regularly wash with mild detergent, inspect for rust, and repaint as needed to maintain its appearance.</p></div>

Q: How can I tell if I have siding or cladding?

• <div><p>If you have stucco on the outside of your home, it&rsquo;s technically considered cladding and not siding, but beyond that, it&rsquo;s impossible to tell without a little digging. Without damaging the siding material, expose part of it to see if there&rsquo;s an air gap between the siding and your exterior wall. If there is, you have cladding. If the siding is affixed directly to the exterior wall, you have a simple siding system. </p></div>

Q: Is concrete log siding the same thing as fiber cement siding?

• <div><p>Concrete log siding is not the same as <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-fiber-cement-siding.htm">fiber cement siding</a>. Fiber cement siding is made from a mixture of cement and cellulose fibers, while GFRC is made from cement, glass fibers, and polymers. The materials are similar in their durability, longevity, and curb appeal, and the main difference is that concrete log siding is available in more styles that resemble traditional log siding. Fiber cement is also less expensive, with materials costing around half what you&rsquo;d pay for concrete log siding.</p></div>

Q: What type of paint can I use on vinyl siding?

• <div><p>Acrylic latex paint is the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-exterior-paint.htm">best exterior paint</a> for vinyl siding. It adheres well to the vinyl surface, reducing the likelihood that the paint will peel or flake. </p><p>The paint color also matters. Choose a light color to prevent the paint from absorbing too much heat and to extend the durability of your paint job.</p></div>

We hired Tom and his crew to repair/replace an old wood deck attached to our barn, replace siding and a sliding glass door. He worked fast, was knowledgeable, and did quality work. He came out promptly to give an estimate. The only downside was that he wasn't able to start the job as quickly...
