--- Quote ---MLG,my husband was the original Mellow Yellow!..and I feel like I have lived in a yellow submarine for 24 years. Believe it or not, we had matching yellow cars, a yellow house, the bathroom was blazing yellow (never paint a small room yellow), the kitchen was yellow with autumn gold appliances :o ...it got so bad, I hated to see the sun come up! 8-) After years of purging his yellowness, I have only the outside of the house left. I will definately keep you updated on my progress. I am thinking maybe a beige color...Thanks for all the help everyone!

I would carefully weight the cost of painting and the cost of residing.

I would agree with Tman122. Last month I had my house resided - removed the aluminum, insulated with 1" R6.5 foam board and topped with vinyl. Now, it looks too good for the neighborhood!  8-)  ;)

Very nice, Phil. I guess I will get prices both ways. I like the idea of adding insulation.  ;)

Bonibelle,
We have already noticed a big difference. The upstairs where the bedrooms are, was always cold; same with the kitchen. Now, both are just as comfortable as the rest of the house.
If you're in a cold climate region, its definitely worth considering.

Full foam? Good call.  ;)
