In Reply to: Cedar siding any good? posted by 2cylpartsinfo on May 10, 2011 at 18:39:36:
I know of a house built in 68 and the south side of the house is a mess. When you cut the wood it smells like you are cutting tar, not cedar. Then someone painted over it with latex a few times. Paint is pealing, cedar has major cracks in the middle of the boards. The wood is ruff cut and ran vertically, 10-12 inches wide. Stripped most of the paint off with 3600 psi along with about 1/16 inch of the wood. I'll have no choice but fill in the major cracks and paint it. Not to steal your post. Does anyone have a solution short of re-siding?
BTY, I would not ever use cedar on a house.
I have a house built in 39 with wood lap siding and could never keep paint on it. Put 20,000 brick on the house 20 years ago and I've never had to do a thing to the siding again.
