Vinyl Siding Help and FAQs

Q:	What should I expect? How long does it usually take?

If you've ever painted, you know that the bulk of your time is spent preparing the surface and doing the trim. It's like that with vinyl siding installations, too.
Preparing the Surface. In most cases, your installer will put an insulating board over the existing siding. This substrate provides insulation and a smooth surface for installing your vinyl siding.
Installing the Trim. Next come the corner posts, window and door surrounds, crown molding and other trim elements. With these in place, your contractor will install a starter strip which serves as a "hook" for the siding.
Installing the Siding. At this point, they will begin to install the siding panels, working upwards from the bottom of each wall.
While most jobs take about a week to complete, you should check with your contractor for specifics. The time required will depend on the size and condition ofyour home, as well as the amount of detailing to be done.
