Pvc Exterior Trim


Any of you guys used this stuff on a complete job? I used it to to trim a patio door. Its expensive. Is the price saved on labor worth it? Hmmmm? Im thinking just around windows and doors. No brake metal. Just Cut, nail and caulk.

Re: Pvc Exterior Trim


I used PVC brickmold to trim out a window a couple weeks ago. A couple reasons I chose PVC over standard pine was that it was already white and the color goes all the way through so I didn't have to worry about painting it when it was 15 degrees out and the stuff cut very nicely.

Re: Pvc Exterior Trim


Ive only done one opening too. For the same reason. With 25-30 openings thats costly. But once its on its on. No brake metal or paint. A peice of 1X4X12 is like 20 bux. Brick mold is what 12?
