I'm considering residing my garage. It is detached with dimensions of approximatly 20x26'. Currently it has a masonite type fiberboard siding. The 4x8 sheets are begining to fail around the bottom edge due to rain/sprinkler splash.
Can I just cover this up with new siding, or do I need to take it off?
I like the look of hardi plank, but it seems brittle and hard to work with. Are there any engineered wood products that have similar durability?
Thinking about acquiring a nail gun for this project. It will probably get little use afterward. I assume I'll need a framing nailer. Is that correct?
Suggestions appreciated.
