Protect Your Wood Trim

Wood window trim absorbs moisture and rots. This forces homeowners into a cycle of scraping, filling, and repainting every few years. Capping wraps the vulnerable trim in a protective shell that stops water from reaching the wood.

We custom-bend aluminum or metal cladding to fit over your existing trim. This seals out rain and eliminates the need for paint. The result is a clean exterior that stays that way for decades with no upkeep. For lasting protection, window and door capping in Vancouver is an easy upgrade that saves on maintenance costs.

Why It Matters in West End

In the West End, many older homes and condos face constant moisture from the Pacific. Rain and sea air speed up wood rot, making exterior trim a constant problem.

The neighbourhood has a mix of heritage houses and mid-century buildings with intricate trim details that are costly to replace. Aluminum capping helps preserve that character while providing a strong barrier against the weather. That’s why more West End homeowners are choosing to cap instead of repaint.

Custom Brake-Formed Profiles

We brake-form aluminum coil stock on site to match each trim board’s exact dimensions. This is important for West End’s older homes where wood profiles can differ. The metal wraps the wood completely with hemmed edges for strength and a clean look. Joints are lapped away from prevailing winds and sealed with exterior-grade polyurethane to keep out moisture.

For complex heritage trim like crown moulding or brickmould, our installers carefully score and bend the aluminum to follow the original shapes without gaps. This custom method keeps the architectural style intact while providing a protective layer that withstands the dampness in the area.

Drainage and Wind Resistance

Capping acts as a secondary drainage layer over the wood trim. We slope each piece slightly outward and add a drip edge at the bottom to shed rain and stop capillary action. This prevents water from wicking back toward the wood. An air gap behind the metal, created by not over-driving fasteners, helps any trapped moisture evaporate.

Fasteners are spaced to resist local wind uplift without bending the aluminum. They only penetrate at the bottom of the capping to avoid creating water entry points. At window and door openings, the capping overlaps the existing flashing in a shingle style, directing water down and away from the building.
