Warped siding signals deeper issues. Moisture can damage your exterior sheathing and framing, especially during our wet winters.
Not every homeowner on Government Road faces siding problems. Many choose to upgrade to longboard siding for its clean lines and superior resistance to UV fade compared to wood or vinyl. This project enhances curb appeal while ensuring durability in our climate.

Moisture-Resistant Siding
Old siding around Government Road can trap water long after the rain stops. Longboard siding improves the exterior by locking panels together so moisture slides off before it soaks into the wall.
The key is in the installation. Precision-fitted panels and hidden fasteners keep the surface smooth and secure. This reduces swelling, cracking, and the need for repainting. That is why homeowners choose Longboard siding in Vancouver for a drier, sharper look.
Government Road is in a part of Burnaby where damp, cloudy days are common. Any exterior surface here must handle repeated wetting and drying without losing its shape.
Many homes in the area have older siding that was not made for this much moisture. A longboard installation gives Government Road homeowners a clean, modern finish that dries quickly and withstands the weather year after year.
Installation for Wet Climates
Longboard siding on homes in Government Road uses an aluminum extrusion with a special locking profile. The tongue-and-groove design creates a continuous, interlocking surface that resists rain driven by the wind. This system uses hidden clips to fasten the boards, which avoids face nails that can cause leaks during the wet winters in Metro Vancouver. The material has a high-performance coating applied at the factory. This tough layer provides a stable color that can handle repeated wetting and UV exposure without peeling. For the damp conditions in Government Road, this means the siding does not soak up water, which prevents swelling and cupping that can happen with fiber-cement or wood. Installers put the planks on from the bottom up, adding trim channels at corners, windows, and doors. These channels allow for thermal movement and help direct water away from the wall, creating a rain-shedding system where every joint helps drain water.
Longboard siding improves the building envelope by providing a strong barrier against moisture. The interlocking design and hidden fastening system create a tight seal, which is important for the rainy climate in Government Road. Proper integration with the building’s structure is key to keeping heat inside and preventing energy loss. The installation method also helps drain water away from weak spots, lowering the risk of mold and rot. This careful attention to detail during installation is crucial for the long-lasting durability and effectiveness of the siding in the unique weather of Government Road.
Government Road Bylaw Requirements
For a typical home in Government Road, replacing existing siding with Longboard siding is considered minor non-structural exterior repair under Burnaby’s home improvement permitting rules. This means no building permit is needed as long as the wall structure, building area, and height stay the same. Structural changes, additions, or changes that affect exits or fire safety would require a building permit and possible zoning review.
For installing Longboard siding in Government Road, Burnaby’s noise bylaw limits exterior work to 7 a.m.–8 p.m. Monday to Friday and 9 a.m.–8 p.m. Saturday. No construction noise is allowed on Sundays or statutory holidays. Continuous noise must stay at or below about 85 dBA, measured at least 15.2 m from the work.
Installing Longboard siding alone will not change a home’s zoning in Government Road. However, Burnaby’s zoning bylaw sets limits on height, setbacks, and site coverage. If the siding work is combined with changes that alter exterior dimensions, such as adding wall thickness that affects required setbacks or expanding floor area, the project must be reviewed to ensure the finished exterior meets those standards.
We recently helped a local school in Government Road. Their old siding was trapping moisture against several buildings. This created a risk of damage and ongoing repair issues for staff. We worked with their maintenance team to install new Longboard siding on those exterior walls over several weeks. We timed each stage around their daily schedule so classes and pickups could continue without interruption. The result was a drier, tighter campus that no longer pulls moisture into their buildings, allowing the school community to focus on learning.
Local Support for Government Road
We regularly install Longboard siding on homes along Government Road. To get there, we take Highway 1, passing the Brunette Avenue interchange. This trip usually takes about 25 to 35 minutes.

This way, we support the community while working on your home.
We replace warped, moisture-trapping siding on homes in Government Road with Longboard siding that sheds rain and resists UV fade. The aluminum tongue-and-groove planks fit together with hidden fasteners and a factory coating, which prevents swelling, cracking, and the need for repainting. In Burnaby’s damp climate, this system keeps walls dry. Replacing siding usually does not require a building permit as long as the structure stays the same. Standard Longboard Plank costs about CAD 30 to 50 per square foot installed, while 150 mm Lap Siding starts at CAD 20. We can get to Government Road in about 25 to 35 minutes.
