THANKS Dominick!

replacing a window for the 1st time

trying not to destroy the siding as I removed it proved tricky

then I watched your super helpful video

completely removed siding in good shape

& the re-installation was a SNAP!

@UMerryMe Good deal, glad I could help you out.

Nice job! Your video about repairing vinyl siding was very helpful. Just like a somebody else said my house was also damaged by the hurricane and then

the October snowstorm we recently had in New England.

@02139Bill Thank you. Yeah trust me I know all about it. I'm in lower New York.

Really good video!!!

Now I have a question.

I have all siding like you do, from bottom to top, but I want to put brick from half way down. How do I do that??

[DominickDiy]

@kelvyfajardo That's a whole new video. However you would need a base / footing for brick. You would be better off using a vernier and not a solid brick.

i hate vinyl siding and will never put it on my first house, it traps moister and milldew, causing the the sides of your house to rot and mold to grow, and a lot of bugs, vinyl siding should be banned

How long should it take to remove and reinstall 20 square with a good crew?

Thanks for the video! I was able to replace a piece due to my son accidental BB gun hole...LOL I invested in the tool from lowes and the project took me only 11 minutes.

Durring the part shown 1:25-1:40 I ended up cracking the bottome bad piece into pieces and was able to get it out.

If you notice there is a break in the filming from 1:59 - 2:00. That is where I cracked the top good piece on the left edge when I pulled it out as far as he has it. A helpful warning about pulling out the top piece would have been greatly appreciated.

Bottom line, if you are a novice, the chances are good that you will screw it up.

Very helpful...now I know more about it and how to replace my hail damaged siding.

I love watching video's on youtube being a pro at all aspects of building..Nothing better than a long day at work to come hope and find some video's of some jerk-off doing somthing wrong..BUT i actually have no complaints here lol and i know this video was made acouple years ago but in the recent year i have come across vinyl siding that is alot less flexable so the tool is a must. also a good way to know that it is locked into place is to see if it slides back and forth easly :) have a nice day
