What happens here
To attach the ledger board properly, any existing siding must be removed. The builder demonstrates how to effectively remove vinyl siding using a specialized siding removal tool. He hooks the tool into the siding seam, pulls down to disengage, then pushes up to unlatch, slides along the seam, pulls out the hidden nails, and finally removes the siding panel.
Goal: Safely remove existing vinyl siding panels.
