Our daughter has a cape style home facing north. This north side is the only side that has clapboards and the paint has blistered badly. Because of some rot they are going to replace this side. The other sides of the house are painted shingles. My experience is not good with clapboards and I recommended that they replace the clapboards with shingles. Is this good advice?
