" Let us look at the windows do their very appropriate for the style of the house six over one. Yeah I don't know whenever selected seeds and that project is called the Pella architect series window. And the architect series window has a simulated divided light we call up the -- LTD integrated light technology window. And the muntin is actually adhered to the outside of the window which -- bonding agent that's it is similar to the stuff accused gunman is so yes. It's one big pane of glass is one big pane of quietness that adhered to it that's adhered to the exterior the same is true of the wood interior mightn't that is also adhered. Between those two panes of glass is a spacer bar non glare spacer bar. There are so when you look at the window it gives an authentic appearance I want you to true divided light I see that's interesting that's a nice new touch right yes it is okay. All right fellas are we ready hoisted up. We've caulked it around the outside any special kind of caulking we have -- is not a this is good silicone based coffee business it's what his record. The more the merrier right. You don't want to pull that flange gallery and pull that flange down before two ships all -- different than in ninety degree angle. That's going to. And then what kind of fasteners do you recommend using any any type of time for the -- quarter inch and half roofing analysts insufficient to to hold that in place. We have. Use the white aluminum cladding on this particular projects such tan and brown are also available as standard colors from Pella. And in addition there are several. There are actually eight windows -- colors that are available. As well. And now we will take our diagonal measurements to just make sure that things are square. And it should be the same in this direction. Perfect good."
" Most of the boxes will be traveling down the highway without any siding on them but this is 11 portion of the overall house that receives this board and batten look. That which is going to be I think very very pleasing. Board and batten is something that really been around for very long time it. Really originally was what just what it sounds like -- vertically installed and then. Battens at each crack between each board and mostly it was used foresight on barn buildings and out buildings in the like. And that I guess on the nineteenth century. Architects decided it was a wonderful treatment for cottages and country houses and it's still popular today. Now these are about ten inches apart. And it's as I said before it's only going to be and a small section of the house so it'll be a contrast of different sides. And over here the fellas are just installing the by the fourth grade sheets that it comes it."
" They come incorporates and they come and I put ourselves Panthers off of that exquisite carpet it's good product. Yeah it's an engineered wood siding it's from Georgia to sit right. Like the product that it's it goes on treason. It's good painting comes in primed holds paint very well again like any engineered product it's stayed right and it's got -- it's got a thirty year warranty. That makes it yet. One thing that you want with a country house or second house is not to have to worry about repainting it -- And this is the same stuff for what's right this is it's a product against Georgia Pacific it's engineered wood product also but it's difficult to find them. This project is going to be ripped down for the best interest is gaining two and one piece here. And again it's great with taking paint and the nice part about this project as we don't have a lot of waste because of knots or checking or any of that kind of stuff and -- Now they evacuated make sure you get uniformity is to use a spacer like we're doing here. So that the spaces in between the battens are the same throughout -- side."
