Corner moulding trim details

Here's a picture showing the moulding details on the corner trim and siding. The white mouldings were first nailed down using zinc galvinized nails from Maibec painted and textured to match the siding. The natural hemlock siding is nailed down using stainless steel nails to make sure they do not leave ugly rust streaks on the wood siding in a few years time. We chose a clear (as opposed to white) seal to close the gab between the two. Hemlock does not shrink lengthwise as much as other wood, so hopefully this gap will stay closed.

I think Alex, Gord, and Joey really enjoy this part of the job. They are paying extra attention to detail. It's worth the extra time they take to seal up the joints nicely. It assures we won't have to do this again in 5 or 10 years time (knock wood!).
