my neighbor used the factory painted hardie... they used the color matched caulk they still had to paint the whole house as the caulk and any touch ups "flashed"... they has a very different shine and were very noticeable.

the issue is that tyvek does not let the materials breathe. here at the coast moisture WILL get in, roofers felt lets it breathe more. typar is almost foolproof to install. it is far cheaper and faster.. this is why so many use it.

te tear it out all the time. i install pavers, so we are always ripping out concrete and replacing it. get a large mini-excavator...a 10-14K machine with a hydraulic thumb will wok fine. make sure you try grading contractors, paver contractors, etc. if you were closer i would jump all over...

you could not be more wrong. here in the outer banks builders went to typar/tyvek years ago. within 10 years siding was coming back off and entire sides of houses were rotted. all the high end builders never switched, their homes were holding up perfectly,as a matter of fact, oceanfront homes...

i am in the irrigation business. pressure above 50 psi is really not good on an irrigation system. It causes misting, etc. Flow rate is MUCH more improtant as it determines how many heads you can run per zone. We normally tap in directly at the meter as we have more volume available...
