Once the edges of cedar siding go soft, moisture is already working its way into the wood. That trapped dampness feeds rot beneath the surface, where you can’t see it until boards start to crumble.
Proper installation ensures the wood’s natural grain stays even and tight, enhancing its appearance for years. In this area, well-kept cedar can set a home apart and boost curb appeal.

Protection from Moisture Damage
Moisture can seep into wood, causing streaks and soft edges. If not fixed, this can lead to rot and expensive repairs. Our cedar siding service stops this by replacing damaged boards and sealing every surface against damp air.
We back-prime each board and use stainless steel fasteners to stop water from wicking. This system breathes and dries evenly, keeping your exterior strong through wet winters. For cedar siding in Vancouver, these moisture-fighting details are crucial.
High humidity and morning dew from the lake speed up wear on wood siding. Without proper care, cedar can warp, cup, or grow mildew in just a few seasons.
In Deer Lake, many homes have original cedar siding that has fought moisture for decades. Our focused board replacement and sealing improve both the look and the weather barrier, suited to this local climate.
Cedar Siding in Deer Lake
We use clear heartwood western red cedar boards for their natural resistance to decay in Deer Lake’s wet climate. Each board gets an alkyd-oil back-primer before installation. This seals the hidden side against moisture from the wall. All cuts made on site are end-primed to stop water from soaking into the exposed grain.
We install the siding with 316 stainless steel ring-shank nails. These are spaced to prevent splitting the soft wood. We keep a consistent 1/8-inch gap at the ends of the boards and a 3/8-inch headlap on beveled profiles. This allows the siding to breathe and shed rain. Flashing at butt joints, window heads, and corner boards directs water outward, stopping it from getting behind the siding.
In Deer Lake’s wet environment, the wall must let trapped moisture escape to avoid rot. We put furring strips over the exterior sheathing and weather-resistant barrier. This creates a ventilated air gap behind the cedar. This drainage plane stops capillary suction, allowing any water that gets through the siding to drop down and exit through weep holes at the bottom.
The gap also helps airflow that speeds up drying of the back of the boards. This reduces cupping and mildew even after heavy dew. Cedar can naturally shrink and swell, and this open system allows that. It keeps the siding flat and securely fastened without trapping moisture against the building.
Cedar Siding Permits in Burnaby
For homes in Deer Lake, the City of Burnaby generally treats standard cedar siding replacement as a minor, non-structural exterior repair that does not need a building permit. However, if the work involves structural changes to walls, modifications to the building envelope, or is part of a larger renovation, a permit may be required and should be confirmed with Burnaby’s Building Permits department.
Burnaby’s construction noise bylaw limits cedar siding work to Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., and prohibits it on Sundays and statutory holidays. Continuous construction noise must also stay below 85 dBA when measured 15.2 meters away, so our crew schedules installation within those hours.
For larger cedar siding projects that go beyond minor non-structural repairs, such as structural changes to exterior walls or work related to additions, a building permit is required through the City’s permits and applications process before work begins.
We worked on a local school in Deer Lake that had old cedar siding on several buildings. The siding had become soft and streaked from years of moisture, which could have caused more damage. We replaced the siding in phases during quieter times, working closely with their staff to keep the campus safe and functional. Now, the school has new cedar siding that stands up to the damp air from the lake, and their staff no longer worry about moisture getting into the walls.
