I'll wait and see what I find after pulling the siding. If it's gone.. then sure. However, if it is just rotten on the top and all I need to do is replace the roof structure and top portions of the framing (which I already have the material for).. I'm not sure how that could cost more then it would to build from scratch.
Don't get me wrong.. I'll build it from scratch if I need to but at this point, that seems like it would double or triple the cost of the project (being as I would HAVE to replace all the skins, cabinets, etc). Units in ~ok shape around here go for 4k+. This one books for over 4k in decent shape. I should have less then half that in it by the time it's repaired.
We'll see what it looks like with the siding off though. Never know what's hiding.
So as far as converting siding types goes.. has anyone attempted it?
