Siding That Prevents Damage

Old siding that traps moisture can cause peeling paint, warped boards, and hidden decay. Fiber cement siding stops this problem. It is made from a mix of sand, cement, and cellulose that won’t rot, warp, or feed mold.

We install it with a rainscreen gap that allows the wall to breathe. This way, any water that gets behind the siding can drain away. This detail, along with factory-finished or site-painted surfaces, gives you a shell that can handle heavy rain without holding moisture. For homeowners in Metro Vancouver, fiber cement siding in Vancouver means fewer repairs and a consistently dry exterior.

Siding for New Westminster Homes

New Westminster’s character homes are beautiful, but their original wood siding often can’t withstand our wet winters. Rain seeps in and causes rot that spreads silently behind the boards.

In New Westminster, where many homes date back to the 1910s and 1920s, replacing siding is often the best way to keep the look while adding modern protection. Fiber cement siding can look like traditional wood clapboard, so you maintain the heritage style without the maintenance headaches.

Fiber Cement Siding Installation

In New Westminster, we install fiber cement lap siding over vertical wood strapping. This creates a rainscreen cavity. The strapping fixes minor waves in older framing. We level and fasten the first course with corrosion-resistant nails.

Factory-finished planks and trim keep their coating during wet winters. Primed boards allow for site painting to match local heritage colors. For exposed gable ends and steeper sections, we ensure proper fastening and alignment to improve durability and performance.

Structural Performance in New Westminster

Installing fiber cement siding correctly in New Westminster is important for managing moisture and thermal performance. The rainscreen design helps with drainage and ventilation. This reduces the risk of moisture buildup behind the siding. Fastening techniques must follow local building codes to ensure the structure can withstand wind and rain. Also, careful sealing of joints and penetrations protects the building envelope from the region’s wet climate.

New Westminster permit requirements

The City of New Westminster’s Construction Noise Bylaw No. 6063, 1992 sets the allowed work hours for exterior renovations. For fiber cement siding installation, crews can work between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. on weekdays and 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays. No construction noise is allowed on Sundays or statutory holidays unless a variance or exemption is approved.

Repairing or replacing fiber cement siding usually does not need a building permit if the work is non-structural. However, if your project involves structural repairs or affects other regulated parts of the building, you may need a building permit from the City of New Westminster. It’s best to confirm with the building department before starting.

If your home is a designated heritage property or in a heritage conservation area, replacing siding may require a Heritage Alteration Permit. The City of New Westminster needs this permit for changes to visible exterior elements, including siding on the front, sides, or roofline. Check with the city’s heritage planning staff if your home is under heritage protection.

Our Community Projects

We recently completed a project at a school in New Westminster. The school had old siding that was allowing moisture to get in, which could cause water damage. We installed the fiber cement in phases over several weeks. Our work was done after hours and during breaks to avoid disturbing students and staff. Now, the buildings are well-protected from the weather, and the maintenance staff does not have to worry about water damage when it rains.
