Is color lot matching discussed for partial-wall repairs?

Often, yes. Lot numbers, sheen, and emboss depth may be compared when only one elevation is being replaced. Local note: Sample ZIP sectors — 28409, 28412.

Is insulation or continuous sheathing discussed when walls are opened?

Sometimes, yes. When cavities are exposed, energy code paths and air barrier continuity may be reviewed.

Do you review expansion gaps for long vinyl wall runs?

Yes. Long runs and inside corners may need expansion planning per manufacturer guidance. Local note: County context — New Hanover County.

Are kickout flashing and step flashing typically called out explicitly?

Yes. Roof-to-wall transitions are common leak points and are often specified with photo expectations.

Can gutter apron, drip edge, and roofline metal be sequenced with siding work?

Yes. Roofline metals are frequently coordinated so laps do not trap moisture behind new courses. Local note: Coordinate anchor — 34.0700, -77.9000.
