Stop Siding Damage

The steady rain and damp air in Metro Vancouver speed up siding failures that wood and vinyl can’t handle. Swelling gaps, peeling paint, and hidden rot can quickly damage your home’s exterior. Fiber cement siding is made to last in these conditions and stops the damage cycle completely.

Unlike traditional materials, James Hardie products resist moisture thanks to a dense composite formulation. They won’t warp, crack, or grow mold, even after years of exposure to Burnaby’s wet months. Our James Hardie siding in Vancouver provides a durable, paint-grade surface that keeps its look and structure season after season.

Why This Matters in Burnaby

Many homes in Burnaby were built in the 1970s and 80s, often using materials that have worn out. The city’s hilly terrain and heavy rainfall put extra stress on siding, speeding up wear and creating leaks that lead to costly repairs.

Switching to siding made for wet, coastal conditions gives your property a shield that lasts through decades of rain without constant upkeep. For exterior upgrades throughout Burnaby, we customize each installation to fit your home’s exposure and style.

Installation in Burnaby

James Hardie fiber cement is made from Portland cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. This creates a strong board that resists rot and swelling from Burnaby’s moisture. We often use HardiePlank lap siding and HardiePanel sheets. These come pre-primed or with factory-applied ColorPlus finishes. They are known for good paint adhesion and water shedding in coastal BC.

Each plank or panel attaches to the building’s framing through a weather-resistive barrier and a drained cavity. This cavity is usually made with vertical strapping. We use corrosion-resistant nails for fasteners, which stay hidden behind the plank overlap. Butt joints get flashing or color-matched sealant after leaving a required expansion gap. The bottom edges are cut to ensure proper clearance from roof lines and decks to avoid capillary suction.

Managing Moisture Effectively

Wind-driven rain is common in Burnaby and affects the siding first. However, drainage happens behind the cladding. A secondary water-resistive barrier helps divert moisture that gets into the plank overlap. This moisture can then fall by gravity down the drainage plane and out weeps at the bottom of the wall.

Flashing details are important for managing water: head flashings over windows and doors direct water outward. Z-metal at horizontal trim joints stops moisture from moving back against the sheathing. The stiffness of the fiber cement also helps by creating a reliable, shingled surface that keeps the drainage path clear year after year.

Siding Permit and Noise Rules

For single-family homes in Burnaby, minor exterior non-structural repairs like replacing exterior cladding with a similar material usually do not need a building permit. However, more substantial or structural work must go through the building permit process via the City’s permits and construction/home improvement permits system. This affects James Hardie siding installations because simple like-for-like siding replacement may be permit-exempt, but any work involving structural changes or other building code issues would require a residential building permit application through the MyPermits portal or in person at the Building Division.

Burnaby’s Noise or Sound Abatement Bylaw regulates construction noise, including exterior renovation work like installing James Hardie siding. Construction, reconstruction, alteration, or repair on residential properties is usually allowed only between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Saturday, with no construction allowed on Sundays or statutory holidays. Continuous construction noise must not exceed 85 dBA when measured at least 15.2 m from the source in residential or multifamily areas. Siding crews must schedule work and operate tools within these hours and noise limits, or get a variance if needed.

Burnaby’s general permits and construction rules state that residential building permit applications for most exterior improvements must be submitted online through the City’s MyPermits portal, except for certain restoration and tenant improvement categories that must be applied for in person. For James Hardie siding projects that need building permits, Paragon Exteriors or the homeowner must get the right building permit from Burnaby before starting work and follow the City’s application and review process.
