HOW TO | J-Channel a Window (Perfectly Every Time)

[@knowledgeispower6192]

This is why its good for Supervisors to do installs in the field with their crew. To catch, and correct mistakes, AND to get reminded why jobs sometimes take longer then THEY thought it should. Good for everyone involved.

[@ligyron2835]

ANY good supervisor already “assumes” jobs will take longer than they should. Even when I estimated contracts I always added extra manpower time into my pricing because NO two jobs are alike, no two crews are alike, etc. For example, I shouldn’t expect the same amount of “work” in a day from a team of one journeyman and a helper as opposed to pairing up two of my top paid guys together. Luckily for me a fire sprinkler contractor it was always pretty “easy” to estimate these numbers. Is he a 30 buck an hour guy? That means he should be giving me 30 cutbacks a day on average. It helps that I started my trade from the very bottom as a “shop kid” making 40 bucks a DAY and worked my way up to now running my own business successfully for more than a decade though.🤷‍♂️

[@DB-cx6cb]

Good job! Love a young man who loves his profession. I trained plumbers for over forty year’s. Many came back years later to thank me that owned their own business. And many who I taught the correct way but started cutting corners soon went bankrupt. The only way in the long run of any business is to do it right the first time. Well done and know you will be a successful business for many years to come.

This is one of the best how-to instruction videos I've ever seen as far as construction type stuff. Simple, actually shows us, up close, exactly what he's doing and why etc. You'd be amazed at how many people making these types of videos don't show you simple things.

I really appreciate that man! This is one my most underrated videos in my opinion

[@jonyates3918]

[@dman3349]

Out of all the window j-channel videos on KZbin, yours is the best by far! This video helped me when replacing a window over two years ago and now it’s helping refresh my memory this week with a bunch of new windows installed. Keep up the training Brother!

[@everythingisnonsense8509]

I've been siding for about 20 years. I exclusively do Smartside but did vinyl for about 10 years. I learned this method about 8 years in and I never turned back. If you put it on first and mark everything with a pencil i found it was way more precise than measuring. Also... with the nail flange on the window we used to bend out the front of the J from the back just a bit so the channel doesn't roll forward and get it nice and tight to the window. Hands down best way to do channel. Great video brother! Just the tip😂😂 glad we aren't the only ones who make that joke.

[@ucmefly99]

Just started on my brothers siding crew. He's a hot shot kinda like you, but a horrible teacher. This video helped tremendously. I learned a whole lot. Thanks man. And thank you for your service to this country!

You’re ok there bud! It’s rare to see people with the patience of Job in this day and age. Keep it up!

[@HVACRSurvival]

I’m also a KZbinr but in HVACR. I love hearing that what I’m doing is helping others so I wanted to leave you a comment and let you know that I just had to redo my windows because the Jay channel was done horribly, and they didn’t use tape, only caulk, but most importantly they had no rain shield at the bottom of the window🤷‍♂️🤦🤦. I just got done replacing the wood that rotted out. Now I’m doing all the windows in the house and your video made my work look 1000 times better than the guy that did it before me and I am a very picky person, I’m impressed with the way it looked. I see a lot about the way you are in your videos, similar to the way I am with mine. If you do good work, you wanna share it and that’s something you’re doing and I commend you for it and I wanna thank you for it. Great job.

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

I really appreciate your kind words, it's always cool to hear from fellow creators!

[@marvinostman522]

I enjoyed the videos I watched. The thing I liked best about your video was the comment you made near the end. "Fast doesn't matter if it's not quality." I worked with a wonderful older gentleman who took me under his wing and taught me volumes of things. One of his lessons and a Howard ism was "There is never time to do it right, but there is always time to do it over." Compared to most guys I've worked I am slow but I feel I always did quality work. I also had to go back and fix other people's work.

[@gageihm52]

Newbie here. Great video. I bought the $50 j channel notcher, thinking it would make the job easier. After seeing this video, I stand corrected. It is more difficult to use notcher the colder it gets. It is supposed to have two settings, one to notch two sides to leave the hinge and one to notch all three sides to completely remove notch. When it's cold out, it wants to take the whole notch out every time. Returning this tool tomorrow! Thanks again for the great videos.

[@broughtupright7269]

Many thanks for the great vid! An extra step worth considering is flashing beneath the side J-channel bottoms: Cut a piece of flashing out of felt paper or flashing tape and install it at the bottom corners of the windows before installing the bottom & side J-channels. Overlap the flashing onto the siding course just below the window. Now, water that runs inside the side J-channels will come out on top of the siding & out it's weep holes, not behind it.

[@rayrobinson3015]

What shows most is that you are a decent guy who cares about the quality of your work. Nicely done!

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Thank you

[@sandrakahanyshyn6316]

Watched your video and then trimmed 2 windows and a door for the first time ever. My J trim was 10 x better then the ones we had done by a friend. I decided to redo all their work. Thanks for the video ❤

[@joeshmoe8912]

Zack, I am a carpenter/ roofer 36 years old doing this work since 18. I can do the 10 minute windows but I never thought about leaving the back half for the flap that bends around to put a nail in it. Thanks for sharing that brother. I always just cut it out and fold it over. But I will be using that next time.

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Glad to hear

[@jonathanisaac9259]

Same here! Thanks for sharing these videos man. Keep up the good work...

[@mitchdenner9743]

I think most of us cut that off also.

[@Oklahomeless]

It holds the corners a lot tighter, and, if you start from bottom up like him, it's better water protection

[@2010pinmaster]

I do the opposite. I cut the back side off and leave the front side, I just cut the rounded edge so it can slide inside the bottom J-channel.

[@itaintrocketscience]

Watched this guy for 3 seconds and knew he was a pro. I’ve been a carpenter for 25 years and never got good doing siding and J ( I can obviously do it, but I’m slow as hell. I’ve been looking for “ that one weird trick” Looks like this dude knows.

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Takes one to know one thanks brotha

[@tomhart9126]

I consider myself a pretty good j-channeler. I thought I knew all the tricks. But after watching how you make your 45° cuts, I was impressed. It made it so much easier. And it looks better. Thanks for the tip.

I installed J channel on 2 windows and they looked terrible. Watched your video, twice, and went and started over with your methods and they turned out very well. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks for a great tutorial for us DIY folks.

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Awesome man I'm happy to help

[@leighgraham]

Thank you for this. Best J channel video I have seen. I am a DIY'er and was able to trim out a crappy dryer vent install by a plumber. The corners don't look as tight as yours but they are better than the 'pro' install from the builder.

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Thank you! I really put some time and detail into this one

[@roccohight8281]

Damn good job there. Wish I was still doing this stuff to be able to use your techniques. One thing I would throw out there that may help someone as it can be easily overlooked, is that when we would do a job like this with new windows being installed, we wouldn’t install the screens for the windows until the very end after the siding. This helps prevent anybody from putting a hole in the screen when they aren’t paying attention. (We had a few guys that were drawn to them like magnets and would inevitably end up putting a hole in one) Anyway keep up the good work

[@Dan-qt7kq]

I’m you but in plumbing. Love to teach and love to show my “little tricks”, you are obviously a great tradesman, and teaching someone “how to”, is satisfying. That is why good tradesman...tradeswoman, charge by the job not by the hour, our experience has to be at a premium. Great job, and doesn’t matter what I watch I always see a trick.

[@saregam]

So very informative and detailed explanation with patience to explain in detail.Thanks, appreciate.Good workmanship.

[@hughlancaster7187]

This is how you create a how to video. Many of these guys don't show you the details. This guy knows his stuff and and more important knows how to communicate what he knows!

[@86QUICKONSLICKS]

Came back to this video because I did the siding on the front of my house last year. Today I tried to J channel around my window on a different part of the house on just memory from last time, as I was nailing I hated the way the corners looked. Long story short I was doing it so wrong compared to this method that I did before and they came out perfect. This is a great video for the part timer like myself

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

happy to help man! glad this method worked well for you

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Awesome! Sometimes it takes that! Happy to help and thanks for the sub

[@MrItalianfighter1]

Don't forget to flash it correctly before installing the j channel

[@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery]

Also, the fumbling around with the "speed' square did make it super confusing to my trainees, I'm having them watch this because I think there is alot of things we can pick up on what to do and what not to Do. Always want your 45 point furthest away from the window 🪟, it's the same exact angle that's already on the window frame itself, hard to mess that up. Thanks brother.

[@sibbettron5000]

I just used this technique on my windows, and they came out great. Thanks for the video, brother!

[@JJ-nh8lv]

Totally agree. I can j much faster without a tape measure and it will be tighter, better...

[@ligyron2835]

As a tradesman myself, I ALWAYS took the time to teach. 10minutes to show a green guy the “right” way to do something was always better than an hour fixing what they tried to figure out on their own. My favorite “helpers” were the ones who were eager to learn and asked a lot of questions and they eventually blossomed into some of my favorite journeymen to work alongside of. Even with 15 years in my trade I’m STILL always open to suggestions/tips from the guys who came before me.

It's nice to see someone taking pride in little details like that. So many houses these days are built with little care. The totality of poorly done little things turns into one big crappy job.

[@robertbonsai7176]

Just finishing my 3000 sq ft place, great video, I want to share some tips I used. I bought the tool that cuts-bottom out. Worth the money to save time, but not necessary. But my siding is wood colour and with snips left the cutouts showing the plastic colour. Tool makes neat cuts. The tool I said can cut a small tab but Zack’s idea is way better for attaching. The corners at 45, if you keep it a few inches long then you can bend it over and keeps corner crisp and in place. I also too a 6” piece, cut perfect 45’s on each corner, used as a temp plate. Had some big windows and was hard to hold sides and get top figured out. I would get the bottom first, the sides at bottom are easy todo, then by leaving the sides a bit long at top, using my template I can trim the side piece at top, both sides, then measure the piece, keep few inches each side long like video, I did left side first, then put the piece up and used my template to measure the angle ect, then, put it up and Bammmm! Done. Looks great. As a tradesman I tell my apprentices my way works, here is how to do it, but, it’s ok to tweak it as you like. Thanks again.

[@NWIVeteranConstruction]

Thanks for the comment bud! I just don't have it in me to buy that tool so I can clip the ends to accept a 45. Coz like you said, With the way I do my corners I'm leaving that flange that the tool cuts off.

depends on the window! if its got a flange like this and a place for you to but your j channel to then no..but if there's a piece of wood surrounding your windows edges then yes, the wood will rot if not wrapped or painted

[@Drumdeedum]

Def a great video , only constructive criticism I can say , as an owner / employer in construction, is don’t be afraid to admit a mistake and try not send any blame to an employee. If an employee do something to effect the way the details come out. It’s up to us to fix it as then explain I’m private to the employee, why whatever it may be os a bad habit. We have to be real with how we want our employees to act ad work on our jobs .teach the right way. And if the saw employee keeps making the same bad decisions over and over . Friend or not , the difficult choice needs to be made and they need to be let go. But putting blame out loud for all to hear is just not the right way to go about it . That’s it all I have to say . That said I truly overall do like your vids . Well done indeed.

sorry to hear that! maybe you needed to make sure you were holding the far end flush to where you want them to sit before you made your mark? you can always elongate your 45 also, and nip off any extra. better long than short.
