We learned that we couldn’t use the siding on the garage that we had planned. It has to match the first floor of the house in design and color, so our vertical siding can’t be used. Back to the drawing board. We either take off all the siding on the first floor and replace it or find 3″ horizontal siding for the garage.
On a trip to our local Menards, we found good quality siding 8″ wide 16′ long. Steven will rip it to 4″. If we overlap it 1″, we will have 3″ horizontal siding we can paint to match the house. A lot of work to rip it but we won’t have to remove the siding on the house and can keep the vintage 1900 look.
