I hadn't put much thought into outlets, spigots etc on the outside of my building at the time the vinyl guy asked me so I didn't plan very well. Is it possible to go back and add vinyl j blocks where I want outlets, a spigot and flood lights? I put a few for each but not as many as I need and not in all the right places.

Thanks

I can't answer the question about retrofitting j-blocks although I'm pretty sure it can be done, but you can add surface mounted boxes. I did this on the back of my garage to add an extra outlet.

Just drill hole for wire and screw fixture through vinyl. plumbing pipes, drill hole a little bigger and then neatly chalk.

you can go back and add blocks they make a tool to pull a piece of siding off then you can add fixture block then replace piece after cutting around block

I believe it is called a side swipe. I used one and made the cuts in the siding with a circular saw.
