New Siding for a Cinder Block Basement


The cinder block walls of this basement looked very bland and utilitarian so the owner decided to improve their appearance by adding wood siding.


We started by attaching pressure-treated wood furring to the wall.


The garage door trim also need to be furred out, so we pre-assembled new trim into corners and attached them to the existing trim with splines and exterior wood glue.
