Why would you wanna put shutters on a gable vent were you can just have a removeable vent.

Ahaa Yes the big debate!! ROLFLMAO.

Around here that might cost you around $315 - 350 a square with dimensional shingles.

My line of work The Paslode has always been a time saver, a good friend and nothing in my way with the gas models.

Sqaare Eye; I dont like to step on folks,But A roof coating really aint the way to go on a flat with shingles. A quick fix can bring on Meany problems down the road. First an inspector will not go for it, second it will set back the value of your house, when it is inspected. And 3rd the...

Up here code says anything under a 3 1/2-12 pitch cannot take shingles! We use torch down rubber roofing. And any roof thats interior is heated has to have this thin rubber membrane called "Ice And water shield" comes in 36" X 67' rolls , And if there is a long eave or cornice to the building...

I am having a hard time adding on to this so here goes: Please make sure you have all your headers! Windows and Door fla$hing is in place and if you have a roof comming into a wall this has to be stepped and counter fla$hed also along your wall.

I stand behind Glenn on this one, and get the siding started as soon as weather permits.

glennan- You aint kidding man! about them safety glasses. Today I was finishing up a garage I was siding (side job) and was plugin up a window. So im cutting back the wood siding so I can get a nailer for my OSB. I snap my lines and start to cut, KNOWING I was going to be hitting some nails...

I always use the cheep Black&Decker Piranha 24carbide teeth for cutting into the unknowen! Its thick,cheep and will hold its shape.

That's cool John I was wondering what them short breaks are good for. LOL Hey How big are the bird houses? I have also seen 3' 6" breaks might be cheaper for you than a 5'. You can go to any siding suppler and order one! Regards Bob

Im just curious. Im a sider. Are you a roofer and want it for chimney and wall flashing? other than that, I wouldnt do without a 10' 6" break

Sounds to me like someone cut someone cut some corners not using Fanfold, and or tyvek. If you want fome under your siding You want to look at your facia, rakes and window trim!!! When I aluminum trim windows (as most folks) I bend 1" into the wall to receive my J channel that is 7/8". and...

Rerod thats a new one. I see that as a good idea! that brought back a house I seen a similar type of that drip edge on around here in the spring . My roofin days are over though thats for the young bucks, I stick with siding and trim. LOL One thing you said that I cant pitcher, you said was...

glennjanie; I think I have used of the product your referring to. I think Wolverine siding products makes it. They call it ,Hide A Vent, and it's made to resemble that old beaded 2 1/2" wood soffit you see on them old bungalow porches. Very good stuff it is. They have the vent slits in the...

Hay Square Eye this one aint no joke buddy LMAO This one will cost her more than the roof it self. and she already got locked in and wants more than the cost of labor can aford. Mind you I have a boss and he is done with her and put it on me. Im almost done.I dont even want it and will just...

I get asked often from home owners about gable venting and ridge venting for there roof. I hear so many conflicting stories that I just tell them this; Ridge vent only works right if you have soffit vent, and only then if there is no insulation blocking air flow or you have baffles between the...

Rerod did you get the job done yet and what did you go with?

I bet up they got a torch down rubber roof up there. We have alot of them around here. In the old days they used Galv. steel, and we have striped alot off and replaced with rubber these days. Your house looks new and bet aint no steel up there. A torchdown rubber roof has a long life when its...
