How to safely remove vinyl siding.
How to take off vinyl siding.
If you can t get a peek from the underside locate the end of a piece of vinyl where it overlaps another piece on a wall.
Once the zip tool is latched onto the lip pull the siding piece downward and slide the tool horizontally across the entire length of the panel unhooking the lip.
Here are the basic steps.
The overlap should only be a couple of inches if the installers were efficient.
Pull the piece of vinyl siding.
Look for a horizontal seam between two courses of vinyl siding.
If the siding is hard to remove try tapping it with the palm of your hand.
Insert the siding removal tool where the panels overlap and pull down and out.
If it remains stuck double check to see if.
Working in one direction unzip.
