Installing New Window Trim On The Exterior Of A House.
What happens here
With the side trim pieces cut, carefully position one vertical piece of trim along the side of the window frame. Ensure it is perfectly aligned and level. Using the siding nail gun, secure the trim piece to the siding. Repeat this process for the second vertical trim piece on the opposite side of the window. If a nail gun is not available, you can use a hammer and 8-penny nails, taking care to drive them straight and flush with the surface.
Goal: Securely attach the vertical pieces of new window trim
