Covering the major siding materials and methods, this book is comprehensive, well illustrated, and has helpful marginal tips. Getting set to do some clapboard work, which I've done in the past, this book gave me a few helpful tips I wish I'd know before. This is an excellent book, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. ... show more

    • Good general review of siding installation principles with excellent details of special projects
Format: Paperback
Good review of general principles for installation of many different exterior siding materials, with associated trim moldings to add the professional touch to your project. Very fine examples of specialty work by excellent craftman provides good examples of specific regional methods and styles. Although the publishers promote the theme of "By Pros For Pros" as an amateur who came to the book looking for some specific guidance and clues on better ways to build a mousetrap (so-to-speak) I was not disapointed. Some projects are a bit esoteric and are fine examples of very specific exterior craftsmanship better left as a magaizine article with a reference in a periodic index instead of a chapter in a survey book on exterior finish work. Still, for my money and time, this publisher and series gets my attention first time everytime. ... show more

    • Not A Great How To Book
Format: Paperback
The book itself was in great condition when delivered, very happy with that. I bought this book to learn more about installing vinyl siding. There was not a lot of information on vinyl siding in the book. If you are looking for tips on how to install vinyl siding or other siding, this isn’t the book for you. This is definitely not a How To Book for someone wanting to learn how to install siding. Disappointed, the book wasn’t what I had hoped it would be. ... show more

Format: Paperback
I find it to skip over the things you would actually do and focuses more on ancient house styles of trim. also too much on vinyl, but I guess that's because they get redone way more often
