SIDING, PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL

 


ABOVE IMAGE:  Instead of using a Tyvek type of rain barrier, we decided to go with a rain barrier that has a rubber base and can be painted on, hence the pink coating.  Two coats and it is ready for flashing around the windows, rain screen, then siding.  



ABOVE IMAGE:  I chose cedar siding for the front.  I will have a walnut stain painted on once weather permits. 


ABOVE IMAGE:  Had T1-11 siding installed on the other three sides as it is the cheapest siding, is a wood (type of plywood), easy to install, couldn't afford to do the whole thing in cedar and I really don't see these three sides so why spend a bunch of money on expensive siding?  These three sides will also be receiving a walnut stain for aesthetics and, more importantly, to preserve the T1-11 which will rot if not cared for.
