How.close to neighbors? Window reflections from neighbors house will melt vinyl siding.
Hardy board is what I would use.

Hardy board is what I would use. one 1 acre. I will look at Hardiboard edit typical builder material cost. That is actually what is falling off. I think. lol thanks!

vinyl siding sucks it doesnt last high heat makes it buckle and bubble and it gets brittle over time too . its just like putting a band aid on your house , smart board lap siding or hardie board is the best , i like the smart siding best but i will say hardie board holds paint better than anything and if its done right it will out last vinyl . ive installed all 3 on different jobs and this is my opinion vinyl just doesnt hold up for the test of time

I would not be able to afford the paint...
its a real crunch these days. Doubt I will be in the house for more than 5 or 7 years.
between financial stupidity on my part, and the product line at work is shutting down and future health... well
Maybe not even by this December... ugghh
lol... because why not !
