Since the spacer flashing is fastened 3/4" down from the top, how is the step flashing ever going to removable/replaceable?
What size nail?
The flashing in this video is sloped back towards the house.
Can I ain’t my siding like this that has mountain lake paint with paint from Lowe’s or Sherwin Williams?
Can I paint over my diamond kote painted siding with paint from Lowe’s or Sherwin Williams?
Yes, you can paint over Diamond Kote's pre-finished siding. However, this will void our 30-Year No Fade Warranty.
Can this go directly over painted cedar that is flat, not shake
that looks like shit. h-molding much better
Wood siding It will rot just like the wood siding everyone used decades ago that everyone covered up with aluminum siding.
wood siding never worked well back in the early day's it required too much maintenance as well as carpenter bee's drilled alot of holes in it.
Can rabbeted trim and outside corners be used with vertical Diamond Kote B&B siding?
Yes, board and batten is compatible with Rabbeted Nail Fin Trim and Outside Corners.
🎉
Why would you not put a flashing with end dams directly above the window first, where its needed the most. Inferior installation method if you ask me
if you're wrapping a metal post, doesn't it make sense to put together three sides, then attach to metal post, then add the fourth piece.
Our Pro-Post Wrap were designed to install over wood posts and fastened at the top and bottom. We have not tested an application over metal post to provide accurate installation tips for installation over a metal post.
Installing some on a project this summer. The house has a wrap around deck. I know the deck isn't perfectly straight and level. How do you recommend getting it level and flat along the entire perimeter? Thought about ripping it down so it would follow the lines of the deck
Our Senior Diamond Kote Specialist would like to speak with you about this project. Please email marketing@dksiding.com with your name and phone number and he will give you a call.
So this qualifies as a rainscreen and eliminates the need for furring strips?
Our 5D Building Wrap is not a rainscreen; it is classified as a drainable building wrap.
Why do you need a flashing at the top of the window then another above the window trim board. Wouldn't it be sufficient to just have the through wall flashing at the top of the wood trim? How would any water get behind the wood trim if it is flashed at the top?
How do I remove caulking from this TP Smart siding?
Thank you for your question. There is not a way to remove caulking from Diamond Kote without damaging the finish.

@@diamondkotesiding TY
No caulking for corners?
Correct! The J-Pocket allows the siding to tuck into the trim, eliminating the need for caulking.
7 year old new construction with Diamond kote over LP siding and it’s chalking and fading badly, their warranty was giving me 12 gallons of paint that I have to apply
Cari, please continue working with your Claims Representative. They are available for any questions you have regarding your claim.
what size top trim board is used in the video for the board and batten? Is it a 5/4 board and if so did you use the 1" drip cap for it
You are correct. A 5/4 trim board was used with a 1" drip cap.
I’d like a video on how to install this on existing siding. How to cut insert etc…
I know this is a redundant question, but I want to really clarify the answer. I have 1/2 inch sheathing on the wall, I'm going to put the 16" panels directly on it (yes Tyvek/rain screen). Will those nails hold ( the nails won't be hitting the studs)?!!!! Why don't you show the totally structure in this video?
The 16” vertical panel is designed to be installed over minimum 7/16” structural sheathing. The nailing pattern is every 6” all the way around the perimeter of the panel. Use a hot dipped galvanized nail with a .092 shank and penetrating through the sheathing at least ¼”.
What color is the board and batten and lap siding behind you in the video?
Thank you for your question. The color shown is no longer part of our color offering.
At 2:05" in There's a brown siding house with a lighter trim. Do you know the colors of the siding and trim?
That is Clay with White trim.
Don't use it anywhere with woodpeckers. ua-cam.com/users/shortstCH9LXMGNpI?feature=share
Why can't you install the 16' panel and span multi-stories? This forces a band board at the floor level.
Can these ripped down to size? Assuming you can, but still should paint bottom as this is closest to the ground.
Yes, they can be cut down to size and do not require touch-up paint on the bottom.
It’s osb ! Don’t be fooled it will fail just like their 1st try at this “INNERSEAL”! Painted cheap shit
when did these become a thing? Shouldnt your reps be contacting us and telling us about these types of things?
Starter boards have been part of our Complete Siding System for over 10 years. We offer options for our Solid and DuoBlend colors, along with a metal starter.
Flawless install from the guy in the video. I would hire him 🔥🔥🔥
Only thing good in this video is the music 🤢
Literally everyone is doing this tacky shit
These modern houses all look the same and they’re all ugly it’s always the same colors and it got big ass windows
Zoom in and let's see the gaps 😅😢. I love the "self tooling" caulking. They always preach 🙌 until you have a leak., Then it's why didn't you tool it to get the sealant to adhere better?. Keep your day job working inside your factory bud. 😅😂
Thank you for you video is so helpful, what kind nail gun are you using
No need to face nail, use old scrap of coil stock and staple to the back then nail the combined piece to the wall.
We live in Mayfield Ky We just found out we have tornado damage from the tornado on December 10, 2021 to our vinyl siding because of your video we r interested in replacing our vinyl siding with Diamond Kote. R u pleased with this product?
Is there a specific rigidmount block for vertical siding?
Board and batten doesn't require a special RigidMount block. In fact, you can mount the light or outlet directly to the panel because of the flat surface, unlike Lap Siding. If you want to use a RigidMount block, you absolutely can. We offer eight different RigidMounts!
Save yourself and money. This product is waste! Caulk on back order. 79 boards short.
Hi Jennel, please call our Customer Service team at 800-236-1528 Option 1 and provide them with your order number or the location of where your order was placed.
How did that work out for you
Do you have video on installing the band board?
Thank you for your question! We do not have a video of ban board installed, however installing a band board is the same as installing horizontal trim, with a few key things to keep in mind: 6" or less trim boards 2 fasteners should be placed every 16", and for trim boards 6" or more 3 fasteners should be placed every 16", and all horizontal trim boards need a drip cap.
So it’s needs a 3/8” gap at all flashings. But what about at the top by the soffit and around the side and bottom of the window? Just 3/16-1/4” gap? In the video you were using a plastic speed square, and that’s about 3/16”-1/4”. Just want to make sure before I start my project that I won’t void warranty.
Thank you for using Diamond Kote! All flashings require a 3/8" gap. For siding that is using a H-Molding to cover field joints, a 1/4" gap is required to maintain the 3/16" requirement. As for bottom of windows and soffit lines, those request a 3/16" gap. If you have an additional questions, you can contact your local Diamond Kote rep or fill out our Contact Us form to have one reach out to you!
Pretty sure that doesn’t look like required 3/16” gap for the siding and trim…
Thank you for your comment. The gapping is the correct 3/16" that is required.
Definitely not, that was 1/16” not 3
p̳r̳o̳m̳o̳s̳m̳
How thick is the trim around the door and windows?
The trim used here is 3.5" wide and 1" thick.
Should have mitred that soffit. That square cut looks horrible
Hi there! Thanks for the video. Newb here. In addition to the top trim Z flashing you put in here, does the interface between the window and the top trim also need protection?
Yes, it needs protection with the 3/8" gap to allow for drainage.
@@diamondkotesiding Thanks for replying. Would you caulk around the window below the trims too? Or flash top of the window below the trim?
Yes, you will caulk around the windows below the trim and flash the top of the window below the top piece of trim.

3/8 gap. Why not just make it an inch. Looks like crap when done. Looks like a child installed it
Per our manufacturer, 3/8" is the minimum spacing requirement on all flashing, otherwise the warranty is voided. You can go with a bigger space, as long as it is over the 3/8" minimum.
@@diamondkotesiding I know. Which is silly.
Do you caulk the face joint of board to batten?

Is this cheaper than the corners with nail fins? And is there advantages to these vs traditional corners?
Thank you for your question. We sell our products to our dealer partners, which set their own prices. We recommend working with one in your area to determine pricing. The big advantages to the individual corners are that they require one nail per corner for installation and their no caulking needed.
@@diamondkotesiding it seems as tho that is an advantage. Would the caulking/corners provide a more bug resistant build though?
We do not recommend caulking our metal outside corners.
@@diamondkotesiding let me be more clear. It seems like the corners with the caulking would keep the bugs out from behind the siding better than the new metal corners. Is that a safe assumption?
The metal outside corners fit tight on the face of the siding as well as underneath the lap. There should be no room for bugs to get behind the corners.
what is the minimum gap horizontally between the trim and the panels? it looks like you only applied the 3/8 in gap above and below the window.
Thank you for your question. For above the flashing, you will need a 3/8" gap. On the sides and bottom of the window it is a 3/16" gap.
If you notice he used the speed square as a spacer at vertical seams
Keep your fingers out of the caulking!
