Installing fiber-cement siding around/over gas/electric pipes
I'm thinking of putting Hardie or Certainteed fiber/cement lap siding
on my house. I'm pretty handy, but I've never installed siding before. On the side of the house where the pipes from the gas and electric meters pass through the wall, am I correct in assuming that I'll have to have a plumber and electrician come and disconnect the service(s), so that I can pass the aforementioned pipes through holes drilled through the siding? Or is there some other magical way to fit the siding around the pipes? How do professional installers handle this? I'm assuming worst-case scenario where the pipe will have to pass right through the middle of a piece of siding, and not close to a siding edge where I can just cut a notch in the siding. Tnx, dave |
