Paragon
Swollen, water-stained boards can hide serious structural damage. Moisture behind the cladding can deteriorate the sheathing and framing of homes here, turning a simple fix into a major rebuild.
Choosing the right profile and finish can enhance your home’s curb appeal. A clean horizontal line or wider exposure can make a modest rancher feel modern, while poor choices can make it look outdated.

Durable Rain Protection
Longboard siding gives your home a clean, modern look without the constant upkeep of regular wood. Here in the Lower Mainland, it really shines in how it handles rain. We install longboard siding for Vancouver homes to keep moisture from getting behind your exterior.
The system uses a rainscreen design and factory-finished aluminum. Water drains away, and the boards won’t swell or cup. You get straight sightlines that stay that way, year after year.
Coquitlam gets some of Metro Vancouver’s heaviest rainfall, especially on the slopes of Westwood Plateau and Burke Mountain. This kind of weather damages exterior finishes. Siding here must do more than look good—it has to manage water effectively.
Many homes in Coquitlam sit near lush, damp greenbelts where moisture doesn’t dry out easily. Longboard’s sealed joints and strong coating don’t absorb that wetness. Your exterior stays crisp and clean even during the greyest stretches of winter.
Technical Installation in Coquitlam
Longboard aluminum planks come with a factory coating that resists moisture from Coquitlam’s rainy weather. Unlike wood, this material does not soak up water or swell. For homes on sloped lots, we use a rainscreen system with vertical furring strips to create a ventilated space behind the siding.
The planks fit together with precise joints that include gaskets to keep out heavy rain. Hidden clip fasteners let the metal expand and contract without bending, which is important during temperature changes between wet winter days and warmer dry periods.
At corners, windows, and doors, we add head flashings and end dams to catch any water that gets past the surface. Weep holes at the bottom of each wall section allow water to drain freely, stopping it from sitting against the sheathing even after weeks of rain.
Coquitlam’s climate needs a building system that controls water and lets walls dry out. The rainscreen behind longboard siding creates a space that balances pressure, reducing the force that pushes rain through joints. Gravity helps drain any moisture that gets in, while air movement removes leftover dampness.
The lightweight aluminum cladding attaches with stainless steel clips placed to resist local wind uplift. Fasteners go through the furring strips into the structural framing, securing the assembly. This layering keeps the sheathing and framing dry, preventing rot and maintaining strength.
Coquitlam Permit and Bylaw Details
Coquitlam’s Building Bylaw controls the construction, alteration, and repair of buildings in the city. This means that replacing exterior siding with products like Longboard siding may need a building permit if it changes the building envelope, exterior cladding, or other regulated parts. Permit applications and plans must follow any development permits, including rules for exterior design or finish in designated heritage or revitalization areas. Paragon Exteriors must check permit needs and any design controls before starting siding work on a home in Coquitlam.
Coquitlam’s noise rules limit construction noise, including work from installing or replacing Longboard siding, to 7:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m. Monday–Friday and 9:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m. Saturday for work done for profit. Construction noise for profit is not allowed on Sundays or holidays. Homeowners working on their own property may work between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on Sundays or holidays. Paragon Exteriors, as a for-profit contractor, must schedule noisy siding installation during the weekday and Saturday hours and avoid noise on Sundays and holidays.
In Coquitlam’s Building Bylaw, exterior cladding includes materials applied to the outside sheathing that protect against wind, water, and vapour. This includes cladding materials, exterior insulation, vapour barriers, and vented air cavities. Since Longboard siding is exterior cladding, its installation must meet these building-envelope requirements and any development permit rules, especially where the permit affects exterior design or finish in heritage-designated or revitalization areas. This can limit siding material choices, colours, or façade treatments for some homes. Paragon Exteriors must confirm if a development permit or heritage designation applies before changing the exterior finish.
We worked on a local school in Coquitlam that had older siding that was starting to cup and let rain in behind the boards. We replaced the Longboard siding while keeping to their daily schedule. We made sure entrances were clear and coordinated with site staff so classes and pick-up times were not interrupted. When we finished, their buildings were sealed against Coquitlam’s wet weather, and they did not have to worry about moisture damaging the walls.
Local Logistics for Siding
We handle Longboard siding projects in Coquitlam regularly as part of our work in the Lower Mainland. We travel to the area easily using Highway 1 and the Lougheed Highway. Our route takes us through Burnaby and Downtown Vancouver, with travel time usually being about 30 to 45 minutes. We often get materials from local hardware stores like Windsor Plywood, Coquitlam and POCO Building Supplies and Windsor Plywood Coquitlam, which helps support the community.
