Does anyone know a good way to identify Masonite siding. It’s easy to do when you buy it, but once it is on, and painted…  
  
  
 I know there are class action suits associated with it.

Peter, here is some pictures of the masonite that I did today. The biggest problem was the buckling & the water damage around it.[img] ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/internachi/original/3X/7/4/74a00cc1e462fa83faa316dbc66db1bad60b2761.jpeg)  
  
  
The dormer windows all had damage on the lowest piece of siding

Your picures came out very good. My pictures did not appear when I put them on the BB. Any thoughts?  
  
  
The inspection I did was on a house ony 7 years old, and it looked like 20 years old, and 20 years worth of neglect.  
  
How old was your house?

Peter, take all of the spaces out of your names of your pictures.  
  
  
The house was 12 years old.

Would you describe this siding for an old plumber’s edification?
