Answer: They key to removing aluminum siding is to start from the top and work your way down. The first piece will be the hardest, as it snaps into the very top sill of the siding. Once you unsnap it, the rest will be easier, but you will have to pull out all the nails. Just go slow, as you can dent aluminum siding. When reapplying, snap one piece in and then nail it into place. It takes patience, but you can do it. Another thought is to hire a handyman or contractor who will do small jobs.
