When commercial cladding fails, moisture seeps into the framing, causing rot that compromises the building’s integrity. This leads to costly disruptions you can’t afford.
The right system also enhances comfort and reduces heating bills, which is crucial for any business here. It provides a clean, modern look that attracts customers.

Protection from Moisture
When damp air and rain push moisture behind standard siding, panels can swell and lose their shape. The right cladding system creates a ventilated barrier that allows walls to breathe, so trapped water can escape before it causes damage.
We install engineered rainscreen assemblies that separate the outer face from the building. This gap stops rot at the source, protecting the structure while keeping the exterior straight and clean. For a closer look at how these systems work, see our approach to commercial cladding in Vancouver.
New Westminster’s location along the Fraser River means buildings face more than just rain. Morning fog and river mist settle into siding, keeping surfaces wet long after the clouds clear.
Older buildings in New Westminster often have flat, unvented facades that trap moisture against the sheathing. Upgrading to a modern cladding system with proper drainage channels stops this cycle, preserving the building’s exterior for many years.
Rainscreen Assembly
Fiber cement and high-pressure laminate panels work well in New Westminster’s wet climate because they keep their shape when wet. We install them on vertical furring strips that create a space between the cladding and the weather-resistant barrier. This space, usually 10 to 19 millimeters, allows any water that gets through the outer surface to drain down and dry quickly.
Open-joint systems are common here because they have gaps between panels, which helps airflow and removes moisture from the space. We use stainless steel fasteners and flashings at all openings to resist rust from the constant dampness.
The building envelope in New Westminster needs to handle moisture from rain and high humidity. A ventilated rainscreen assembly separates the cladding from the sheathing, letting any water that gets behind the panels drain out and the space dry through airflow. This stops moisture from building up against the structural wall, which is important in a climate where surfaces stay wet for long periods.
We add flashings at windows, doors, and the base of walls to direct water outward. Continuous air barriers behind the cladding keep warm, moist indoor air from reaching the cold sheathing, which stops condensation inside the wall assembly. These methods ensure the cladding acts as a proper drainage plane, not a moisture trap.
Cladding Permit Regulations
Under the Construction Noise Bylaw No. 6063, 1992, exterior work like commercial cladding installation or removal is only allowed on weekdays from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm and on Saturdays from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. Work is not allowed on Sundays or statutory holidays, so scheduling must respect these hours.
If your building is in the Queens Park Heritage Conservation Area, major exterior renovations that affect visible façades need a Heritage Alteration Permit before work starts. The city’s heritage rules do not allow non-in-kind changes to street-facing exteriors, so any cladding replacement that differs from the original material or look may need a heritage review.
Some exterior alterations are exempt from heritage rules, but changes that affect the street-facing appearance beyond paint color and in-kind replacements, or that impact structural integrity, will still require review.
We recently worked on a local school in New Westminster that had problems with its old cladding. Rain was getting behind the panels and causing moisture issues. We replaced the cladding while keeping their daily schedule in mind, so classes and drop-off could go on without any interruptions. We teamed up with their facilities staff to make this happen. After we installed the new cladding, the damp spots and drafts disappeared. Now, their staff does not have to worry about leaks between buildings.
Local Logistics for Cladding
Commercial cladding in New Westminster is a regular part of our work. We get there easily via Highway 1, usually driving from Burnaby in about 25 to 35 minutes. We pass the Brunette Avenue interchange and the New Westminster waterfront. For materials, we often stop at local building supply stores like Griff Building Supplies Ltd. and Can-Am Building Supply Ltd. This helps support the local economy.
We install commercial cladding in New Westminster to prevent moisture that causes siding to bubble, warp, and rot framing. Our rainscreens use fiber cement or high-pressure laminate panels on furring strips with a 10 to 19 millimeter drainage gap, along with stainless steel fasteners and flashings. Estimated costs range from CAD 50 to 100 per m² for vinyl and CAD 220 to 430 per m² for ACM panels. The Fraser River fog and older unvented facades make proper drainage very important here. We can work on exteriors weekdays from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm and Saturdays from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, but not on Sundays or holidays. In the Queens Park Heritage Conservation Area, facade changes may require a Heritage Alteration Permit, and we can easily reach New Westminster.
