Finally finished the Hardy siding (other than final trim pieces). I've got the cedar cut with first coat of paint on and hope to get that on in between the rain drops tomorrow.
Thanks Grant, yes it took a long time. Now that I'm done (except some trim) I'm glad I used it. I think it will hold up well and I was going for a certain look. If I were to do it again I'd go with the cedar siding just for the time factor and it looks good too. Cement board is heavier so I did go with a trailer rated for 10k lbs. Are you thinking of building? Let me know...
Congrats on making this massive milestone. I know you've been working on the siding for a long time. It looks really nice.
ReplyDeleteAs a PS, was there a special reason you picked hardy siding over the other options? How well do you think it worked out compared to something else.

ReplyDeleteI'm always thinking of building. I'm just working on the "Convince my wife this is a good idea" stage. So far I've been unsuccessful.
