Once cedar siding starts to cup or hold moisture, the bigger worry is the trapped water behind it. A hairline split can become a soft spot through one coastal winter, leading to extensive repairs.
In this area, sun and damp air can leave the wood looking grey and uneven. A careful clean and recoat after repairs restores a uniform finish that enhances curb appeal.

Protect Your Cedar Siding
Cedar siding looks great, but it can be damaged by moisture, especially in wet areas. When the boards soak up rain and humidity, they can swell, warp, and crack. This allows water to get behind them.
We replace damaged boards with kiln-dried cedar and use a breathable sealant that keeps water out while letting the wood breathe. Our team specializes in cedar siding in Vancouver, making sure every board is installed and sealed correctly. This creates a smooth, watertight exterior that can handle coastal weather.
In Ladner, river fog, ocean breezes, and heavy winter rain make it tough on wood exteriors. Many homes in Ladner have cedar siding that needs regular care to keep moisture out.
Older homes often have original boards that have faced many storms, which can hide rot underneath. Our team carefully removes only the damaged sections and replaces them with matching cedar. This keeps the home’s character while improving its protection against future moisture.
Cedar Siding Installation
When we replace cedar siding in Ladner, we start with kiln-dried boards that are adjusted to local humidity levels. This helps reduce moisture differences that can cause cupping and splitting after installation. We back-prime every board, including the ends, with a special primer to seal the wood from the inside out.
We use stainless steel nails that resist corrosion from the salt air in Boundary Bay. We place the fasteners according to the board’s nailing schedule, leaving gaps at butt joints to allow for seasonal movement without buckling. Flashing at horizontal joints and window tops is installed behind the siding to direct water outward.
The finish system combines a transparent oil with a water-repellent additive. This allows the wood to breathe while keeping surface moisture away. We apply it to all six sides before installation, then add a maintenance coat after the boards are in place to ensure full coverage that can handle Ladner’s damp weather.
In Ladner’s coastal climate, buildings must handle frequent wetting and drying. Cedar siding serves as a primary rain screen, but we also ensure a secondary drainage layer behind it. A weather-resistive barrier, installed in a shingle style, sheds any water that gets past the siding, directing it down and out through weep screeds at the base.
We keep a ventilated air space between the back of the siding and the weather-resistive barrier, even if it’s just the natural shape of the board’s back cuts. This gap stops capillary action and allows air to flow, speeding up evaporation after heavy rain or fog. Without it, trapped moisture can soak the sheathing, leading to hidden rot common in older homes in Ladner.
All openings, including windows and deck ledgers, get layered flashing that works with the weather-resistive barrier. Head flashings extend past the trim and are designed to prevent water from running behind the siding at corners. This shingle-lapped method ensures that wind-driven rain from the Strait of Georgia is always directed outward.
