Protect Your Home's Exterior
Rotting trim and peeling paint don’t have to be a yearly problem. Board and batten siding gives your exterior a strong barrier that sheds rain better than regular horizontal lap siding.
The key is vertical boards covered by narrow battens. This design keeps out wind-driven moisture and adds depth to your home’s look. That’s why we install board and batten siding in Vancouver. It gives homes a clean facade that stays sharp without needing constant scraping and repainting.
West Bay homes sit right by the Pacific, where salt air and heavy rains constantly test exterior materials. Regular siding simply can’t last long here.
Many homes in West Bay were built decades ago, using original cedar that’s now soft and damaged by water. Upgrading to modern board and batten means a home that can handle winter storms without needing constant repairs.
Installation Techniques
Fiber-cement panels resist the salt air and constant dampness of West Bay. They do not swell or crack. Engineered wood with zinc-borate treatment looks like natural wood but won’t decay like untreated cedar. We use stainless-steel ring-shank nails driven directly into the studs. This prevents rust streaks that cheaper fasteners often cause.
Behind the boards, vertical furring strips create a ventilated drainage gap. Battens cover the seams between the boards, allowing airflow and providing a secondary surface to shed water. Flexible polyurethane sealant along the joint between the batten and board blocks wind-driven rain from reaching the sheathing.
Board and batten siding in West Bay acts as a pressure-equalized rainscreen. The air space behind the boards separates the cladding from the weather barrier. This allows moisture that gets in to drain out through bottom weeps without wetting the framing. This gap also stops capillary action, keeping the wall cavity dry during the long wet season.
On exposed hillsides in West Bay, the vertical fastening pattern ties each board to every stud. This distributed attachment resists suction forces better than horizontal lap siding. Wind flowing over the battens creates less uplift.
Permit Requirements in West Vancouver
Homes in West Bay are governed by the District of West Vancouver. You usually need a building or renovation permit before starting board and batten siding work. Check the latest rules with the District of West Vancouver building department before planning your project.
A recent project we completed was at a school in West Bay. Their old board and batten siding had warped and cracked. This allowed moisture to get into the walls, which could cause more damage. We replaced the siding on several buildings while working around their daily schedule. This way, classes and activities could continue without interruption. Now, they have a tight, weather-resistant exterior that they can trust, along with a sharp, uniform look that the whole community enjoys.
