Well this isn't embarrassing.

I'm all geared up to replace a rotten siding board. Trouble is, it's up above an intermediate roof, and I'm starting to get a little squirrelly, doing that step-off a ladder onto a roof ballet. I do it, but I don't enjoy it. And my tension level increases logarithmically, the higher the step-off is.

I've got the replacement board, pre-painted to match (just need to trim one end), the nails, nail set, caulking, a bit more paint for a final coat. But I'm getting to that stage, I'm entertaining phoning our siding "guy".

I'll probably do it, probably wait till a warm spring day.

 

NOTE: Read ALL the instructions.
Then you'll KNOW to knock out the plug for the drain from the dishwasher....
Luckily, remove of the disposal wasn't needed....

 

Oh yeah, I remember that.
