Yeah, garage siding projects can really drag, especially when you only get a few hours on weekends. I had a similar “patch job” phase on my own garage after fixing up part of the house, and my neighbours also started hinting it should get done. It’s frustrating not having the energy or time, especially after work, projects like window trim or full reside jobs just sit unfinished. I always worry about weather damage to the frame too, even if it’s just tar paper holding out the rain.
There are local guys,
mcd contracting, that some friends used in Ottawa to help move things along faster on siding and exterior fixes. Might be less stressful than dragging it out solo, plus the upfront quotes are pretty easy.
