aluminium soffits & fascia question
The contractor I'm talking with will be replacing any rotted wood & caulking before attaching the aluminium soffits & fascia.
Should the wood also be painted beforehand?
Aside from references (he has done nice work on many homes in my neighborhood) & insurance-is there anything else I should ask about?
Thanks!

A finish of some sort will protect the wood against water damage in the event of siding failure. A bit extreme, though. I doubt it would be worth the expense.
Be sure that the scope of work is defined in the contract for the work.
