Any siders on this board? Looks like someone put a rock through the corner trim on our bay window. PM me if you do this kind of stuff or know someone who can. Thanks. Mike

How big is the piece you need to replace? Siding is actually pretty easy, especially when you're only replacing a small section.

I accidentally melted some siding last summer when I had my barbque too close to the house.

As long as you can get siding that's a reasonable color match, it's only a matter of cutting out the old pieces, and cutting the new ones to fit. I'd recommend trying it yourself if you're even remotely handy.

Edit: Forgot to mention a key point, which is that I'd never done anything with siding, ever, in my life, before trying this on my brand new house.
