Thanks gqleftym,
Yes there is, for others that are interested. I already got my check from them, of course it is only a percentage of the cost of replacing your siding (if you get a company to do it). I got about 40-45% of what Amazing Siding and others wanted for the job. Of course by doing it myself, with that money I should be able to add sheathing, replace the siding, reinforce the house for hurricanes (once I get the house naked down to the 2X4s it should be easy and inexpensive to put braces all the way down from roof to slab sill) and maybe change out the windows too. Not a bad deal if you are willing to put in some labor (I might have to pitch in some extra cash if I do the windows). All my neighbors had to put up an amount sligthly over what they got from the settlement just to get the house resided. It should be a fun summer...
I'll let you all know how it turns out.
Thanks to all again.
Al.
