i have l-p sidng panaels on a 1975 home which are surface peeling andsome edge deterioration. can i cover this with some sort of cedar siding or will it need to be removed?



siding is basically sound . surface mildew has been a problem. should housewrap be applied under new siding if old siding is not removed?

Answers:



From: Randy Martin

covering your old siding is not advisable. the cost would be the same as replacing it with the same material since you have to wrap it up. i recommend covering it with the same material.
