A comparable proposal should state panel profile and thickness, color class, housewrap work, insulation backing, starter and corner pieces, window and door trim, soffit and fascia, removal, disposal, and workmanship coverage. It should not be treated as a fiber-cement, engineered-wood, or metal-siding allowance.
