Once boards curl, rainwater can sneak behind them and start rotting the wall sheathing. That hidden decay weakens your home’s structure and invites mold. That’s why so many neighbors are choosing this siding for their homes—it’s engineered to lock out moisture and hold its shape.
This material also withstands hail and stray baseballs without denting. Its wood-grain finish provides the warmth of cedar without constant staining. Your home here stays sharp through every season with minimal upkeep.

Siding that resists moisture
Vancouver’s rainy seasons can damage ordinary siding. Warping, peeling, and swelling happen when moisture gets in. LP SmartSide siding is made to resist moisture, keeping its shape and finish year after year.
The secret is a treated wood strand core infused with zinc borate and coated with a factory primer. This process prevents rot before it starts. For LP SmartSide siding in Vancouver, Paragon Exteriors combines this strong material with a high-quality paint finish, so your home stays protected and looks great.
Government Road is in Burnaby, where older homes deal with constant moisture. Old wood siding here often buckles after a few wet seasons, making exteriors weak.
Many houses in Government Road were built when siding choices were limited. Today’s LP SmartSide can handle the damp, cloudy weather that defines the area, giving these homes a fresh, long-lasting exterior without constant care.
Government Road installation details
LP SmartSide is a type of engineered wood siding made from strandboard. It is treated with zinc borate to resist rot and fungal decay. All surfaces are primed at the factory, and cut ends receive a touch-up primer during installation to seal the edges. For homes along Government Road, installers use stainless steel ring-shank nails and hide the fasteners behind the lap to prevent moisture from getting in.
A rainscreen gap is standard practice in this area. Furring strips are placed behind the siding to create an air space that allows water to drain and the wall to dry from the back. Overlaps are sized to ensure water runs off, and butt joints are either flashed with metal or sealed with a high-quality exterior sealant that stays flexible in cool, damp weather.
LP’s longer 16-foot boards reduce the number of end joints on Government Road’s older homes, which often have horizontal siding. Fewer joints mean fewer places for rain to enter. The siding’s stability in changing humidity helps prevent buckling, which is a common issue with solid wood siding in this moist area.
Building design on Government Road focuses on managing the constant moisture from Vancouver’s frequent rain. LP SmartSide siding works as a rain screen when installed over a well-designed water-resistive barrier (WRB) and a ventilated air space. This air space helps equalize pressure behind the cladding, reducing the chance of wind-driven rain getting into the lap joints.
Flashing is very important. Head flashings over windows and doors direct water down into the WRB, while sill flashings guide water out onto the siding’s surface. The bottom edge of the siding is kept above the ground and protected by a drip-edge starter strip, which helps stop capillary action and prevents moisture from wicking up.
The zinc borate treatment gives the engineered wood core resistance to decay, but the rainscreen design is key to drying the cavity. Stainless steel fasteners withstand the high humidity in the area, keeping the siding secure for many years without rust or nail pops.
Government Road permit requirements
For homes on Government Road, most LP SmartSide siding projects that involve enlarging, altering, or renovating the exterior wall assembly beyond minor, non-structural repairs are considered building envelope work. These projects require a building permit under the Burnaby Building Bylaw 2016 (Bylaw No. 13658). Routine maintenance or minor repairs to the exterior that do not involve complete cladding replacement are exempt. However, full replacement of cladding on residential buildings, except for single- and two-family dwellings, requires a permit and professional design and field review.
For LP SmartSide siding installations on multi-unit or larger residential buildings along Government Road, complete cladding replacement is classified as building envelope repair. This requires a building permit, drawings, and professional schedules. The City’s policy states that complete replacement of all cladding requires permits, except for single- and two-family dwellings. Routine maintenance or minor, non-structural exterior repairs do not need permits. Building Envelope Professionals and Registered Professionals must provide design and field review documentation as part of the permit process for these siding projects.
For homeowners on Government Road installing LP SmartSide siding, a municipal building permit is needed when the work involves alteration, enlargement, or significant renovation of the exterior walls or other parts of the building structure. Only minor, non-structural exterior repairs are exempt. Any siding project that goes beyond minor repairs, such as full cladding replacement, structural changes, or substantial exterior alterations, must obtain a building permit from Burnaby before work begins.
We recently worked on a local school in the Government Road area. The old siding was allowing moisture and drafts into several buildings. This created a risk of water damage that could disrupt their daily activities. We installed LP SmartSide siding across the campus in phases. We coordinated closely with their staff to keep the site safe and operational. The result was a tighter, drier building that no longer had worries about water damage during the wet winters.
Local support for siding
LP SmartSide siding jobs on Government Road are a common part of our exterior remodeling work in Burnaby. We can get to this area quickly using West Georgia Street and Highway 1. We often pass through Downtown Vancouver and Burnaby Lake, and the drive usually takes about 25 to 35 minutes. To support local businesses, we get materials from nearby suppliers like Pro-West Sales Ltd and Dick’s Lumber & Building Supplies.
In Government Road, homes often have siding that warps and peels after rainy seasons. We install LP SmartSide siding, which resists moisture and keeps its shape. Many older homes here deal with constant dampness. We use engineered wood strandboard treated with zinc borate, factory-primed, and stainless steel fasteners. We also include a rainscreen gap to keep walls dry. Full siding replacement for single- and two-family homes does not need Burnaby building permits, but larger buildings do. A typical lap siding project with mid-range finishes costs between CAD 13,000 and CAD 19,000. We frequently serve Government Road and can reach the area quickly.
