Hi, this is Jon on behalf of Expert Village in this video clip we'll be renailing our siding. The areas on our siding that we took out are nails so that we could put that metal flashing up in there. We need to replace those nails so that the siding won't end up pulling away allowing water to come in. I'm going to be using the same galvanized nails as I did for putting the trim on again the galvanized nails won't rust or won't break down over time. Now I'm going to be putting nails in the old holes in addition I'm going to be putting nails about every eight inches along here.
