Installing New Window Trim On The Exterior Of A House.

What happens here

Carefully position the cut vertical trim pieces along the sides of the window opening. Use a siding nail gun, powered by an air compressor, to secure the trim in place. If a nail gun is not available, you can use a hammer and 8-penny nails as an alternative. Ensure the trim is flush and properly aligned.

Goal: Secure the vertical trim pieces to the window frame.
