Man I finish a wall in 3.5 r uhrs alone

I hate slum lords

What kind of nails do u you use

ty

What is the name your holder

Lot of people are hating on you in this video I'm not really one to hate but everything I've seen is you never caulk the cement board instead you flash behind the joint.. just a heads up brother..

Old video but need flashing behind butt joints and you have to paint all cut edges with the supplied touch up kit by hardie. Also should start with a full pc then cut 3ft off each row and after the smallest 3ft pc go back to full

sloppy job

I give a 4.5 star

You not suppose to get on your knees in construction that's a no no Mister

Wow. That looks like shit

No flashing metal behind joints n olso the corner post need to be lower to the siding.

Why is he not using starter strips so this thing can move and those joints .....maaaaan!
Overall it’s easy if u have common sense but u gotta know the tricks of the trade!

Sorry guys I can not hiring you guys

Thanks for the good video.

Sorry man but your siding is not going to last. You MUST prime all fresh cuts (maybe you did it without recording it?) or the material is going to absorb water and the paint will start to fail. You also did not use flashing between joints. It states all this in the instructions.

Do not dislike this video

I would flash between the boards over caulk. Your starter board is supposed to flare out with a fur strip, but maybe you did that. Looks better than most though. Nice work.

CauLk not cock... for those that care about their lungs use a respirator when cutting fiber cement boards and use flashing at the joints.

"A lot of caulk" is not a fix for poor measuring and cutting.

The less people know about “how to “ the more videos they post. How about flashing on the joints? “ Bear skin” or metal flashing?

It even increases the stupidity level. Due to the temperature changes those gaps expend and retreat constantly. You need to leave a 1/8” gap for the temperature play. And again you use “ Bear skin” or metal for the water runaway..

I own the siding company

Too caulk will crack no matter what.Even if you use “ Big Strach “

I am about to replace my old aluminum siding, for long run which one you suggest between vinyl and cement board you were installed,thanks

Which nailing gun did you use for this job bro?

no flashing voids warranty. hardy got sued years ago for caulking joints .caulk shrinks and water gets behind the boards.

Hi, how much does it cost to remove and install a new fiber cement siding in 3 story home 2000 sq ft

what kind of nail gun are you using?

What do u call that gadget u put to guide u in installing the next plank?

How many inches apart should you nail the piece of siding against the wall

No gap on butt ends! Need flashing behind butt joint! How does he know where studs are?

What saw blade did you use to cut with? Thanks

You didn’t put flashing or paint the end to seal out moisture.
Come on man!!

Is this a joke?

arent you supposed to install some type of felt paper behind each butt joint ? or is that overkill ?

Is the house wrap nailed directly to the studs or is there osb under it?
I’m putting some hardy lap siding around a lower side porch wasn’t sure if it needed OSB or not

Buddy sad video your craftsmanship is very poor

Why you put all the seams in a row

You forgot to paint the cut end and to put flashing behind your joint. I'm sure it'll be fine though.

He wasn't lying when he said diy 🤣🤣🤣

I wanted to see some caulking.

I'm glad he's not working on my house. Definitely not the right way to install hardi plank.

Yeah put a lot of cock in it thats the right way
