Where we live it rains over 300 days per year...so leaks can turn into problems fast...when we repair any wood siding rot here, its always Best to use z flashing inbetween the pieces..and always make sure you primer and paint the edges of the new wood before nailing it down...this stops water from soaking into the edge..mainly the bottom edge..

whats the best method for nailing this type of siding. if it bows can it be nailed down or does that mean it would have to be replaced

How’s z flashing work when the stuff is run vertical and he just replaced a patch Wouldn’t water still get where old siding and new patch meets even with z flashing being it’s not all run horizontally and flashing isn’t whole length of house

Should have replace the whole panel, more joints, more leaks. Never go cheap on caulking.

Thanks- I have Dry-rot in several areas on my home as well. I was looking for what type of saw to use to cut out the wood paneling and replace a section.

Should have replaced the entire panel. If you going to do a patch panel Z flashing should have been used at horizontal cut line vs caulk. I would have used a circular saw with a piece of wood fastened to house as a guide to keep the cut as straight as possible. The oscillating tool would only be used at the end of the cuts to complete them.

How does z flashing work with the channeled siding? Seems like there will still be gaps there and wont the z flashing be seen after the job is finished? Or do you cut the flashing and press it into the channels?

Could you glue the 2 panels together at the cut line? I know it's best to use the z-flashing but just don't like how it looks.

How does z flashing work with the panels of t1 going upwards instead of length wise Wouldn’t the water still get at the end of the new section and run down being flashing wouldn’t run whole length horizontal wise of the house just the new section Hadn’t seen it done when patching it like ur saying Only with full horizontal runs

I always use "" Z "" trim on the cut areas. You don't, so to each his own !!!!!!! Prime and paint all edges, top - bottom - left and right sides !!!!!!! 👍

wwhere do you mean to use it, the bottom or between them?
@rotfan77 Жыл бұрын
I have always heard that you should use flashing if repairing midway or similar in a panel. I’m not sure what they do at the top if you replace the entire panel?
@larrylambert74432 жыл бұрын
I've watched a few videos and looks like you forgot your flashing behind the cut you did so water will drop off ?

I have some rot on 3 panels of my mobile home. I’m hoping to do this technique and then add some trim over the cut to cover the area and add a little decorative look to the house.

You can actually pull the nails from the lower part of that panel, pull out from the bottom and slide a 2x4 above where your cut will be then mark your cut mark and take your skill saw and set the depth so that it cuts just over the thickness 3/8" and saw right across it. Much quicker and straighter. 👍

I replace the rotted sections with PVC boards that I router to the correct thickness. Once painted and caulked it looks like it has always been there and never a problem with rot again.

To get a exact match just cut off a section and take it to home depot (it's easier that way).
