It's a wrap!

Before the new siding goes on, the house is wrapped in a reflective material that is a moisture barrier. It also provides a minimal amount of insulating factor. On the back of the siding is a thick foam layer, which provides most of the insulation and a cushion to protect the siding against damage.

After a summer with much higher than normal precipitation, we enjoyed very nice weather (except for one day when Mike and Dustin got drenched). So the reflection of the sunlight actually made wrapping the house a hot, sweaty job.
