We live in Southern California. We're considering installing vinyl siding on a patio room remodel. One friend (a contractor) said that vinyl siding really isn't meant for new construction--only as an overlay of older covering.
We were planning to use tar paper over the plywood walls, but wondered whether we should consider something like Tyvek. The interior walls are heavily insulated.
We would also be interested in anyone's thoughts on vinyl siding from a do-it-yourself perspective.
Thanx
