What happens here

After removing the damaged piece, precisely measure the length required for the replacement section. Then, using a miter saw, carefully cut a new piece of fiber-board siding to match this exact measurement. Ensure the cut is clean and straight for a seamless integration with the existing siding.

Goal: Prepare a new piece of siding to fit the repair area.

Tools and materials

  • Measuring Tape — For accurate length measurements of the replacement piece
  • Miter Saw Milwaukee — To cut the new siding piece to the correct length
  • Pencil — To mark cutting lines on the new siding
  • Safety Glasses — To protect eyes during cutting operations
  • New Fiber-Board Siding — The replacement material for the damaged section

What they say

Hide

that I just replaced. It's very susceptible to water damage. So you can see this was getting hit by the sprinklers. And all it really is is ground up wood fibers that's really just glued together. It's got a paper on it and then it's pressed to look like wood. And what I call it is glorified cardboard sighting. So this is it, when water hits it, it just crumbles up.
