This Original Tarnsite siding will be left intact. This will require house wrap incapsulating all of the entire walls over lapping a minimum of 6" and all seams taped. Install 1/4 " fan-fold over top of the house wrap using cap nails to install. Tape all the seams. Install a white break metal around the perimeter of the walls where they meet the foundation. Bend the metal in an L or Z form to insure tight fit over the fanfold and to the foundation trapping any dust from fall to the ground. Install new 4" double lap vinyl in homeowner's choice of color provided by the contractor. Matching siding blocks and split trims will be installed at all wall penetrations, such as electrical, hose bibs, gas lines. All the soffits and fascia will be secured permanently, missing, or rotted sections replaced. Once that has been completed install new white soffit panels with F or J trims. Install new white fascia over the existing wood using white trim nails. Install white 5" seamless gutters throughout all overhangs with minimum 1/4" per ft of run. Install downs and 4' tail pipes off the downs with hinge elbows and at least two wall straps per 8' of run. Incase all windows in new break metal even if some have existing break metal.
