Protect your home from moisture
Cracked or failing siding allows moisture to enter your home. This can lead to rot and mold inside your walls, which you might not notice until it’s too late. Replacing old siding with durable, well-installed materials stops water damage before it starts.
A proper installation creates a drainage plane that directs rain away and resists dampness from the wind. We often use fiber cement and engineered wood for siding installation in Vancouver because they withstand our wet winters without warping. This results in a strong exterior that keeps your home dry for many years.
Homes along Government Road deal with Burnaby’s heavy fall and winter rains. Moisture can soak into the walls, making a damaged exterior a serious problem that needs quick attention.
Many homes here were built after the war and often have old wood siding that’s past its prime. With the trees around holding moisture against the walls, this leads to peeling paint and hidden damage. Modern, low-maintenance siding helps these older homes stay attractive and strong through every rainy season.
Rainscreen installation techniques
On Government Road, we install fiber cement and engineered wood siding over a ventilated rain screen. This method uses vertical furring strips over the house wrap to create an air gap behind the siding. The gap lets moisture that gets past the siding drain downward and evaporate instead of soaking into the wall.
We drive fasteners into the studs through the siding and furring, leaving a small gap between boards for expansion during wet weather. We also install flashing at window heads, corners, and bases to direct water outward. This method keeps the sheathing dry even after days of coastal rain.
Many older homes along Government Road originally had wood siding without a drainage plane behind it. We add a weather-resistant barrier and vertical venting to create a continuous drainage space. This space breaks capillary action and allows water that gets through the siding to flow out at the base.
Flashing at all window and door openings extends past the siding to form a shingled assembly that sheds water outward. We design fastener patterns to resist wind suction during winter storms while allowing the siding to expand and contract with the damp, mild climate of Metro Vancouver. This results in a wall assembly that dries quickly from both sides.
Siding installation permit requirements
A building permit is required under the Burnaby Building By-law if your siding project on Government Road involves structural changes, wall sheathing, or other work beyond simple exterior finish replacement. Purely cosmetic siding replacement may be exempt under the municipality’s permit rules.
Siding installation must follow Burnaby’s Noise Control Bylaw, which limits construction noise during certain hours and days.
If your siding work changes exterior walls, projections, or site features, it may trigger a zoning review under the Burnaby Zoning Bylaw. Changes affecting setbacks or permitted forms need extra approval.
We recently completed a siding project for a school in the Government Road area. Their old siding was allowing moisture to enter several classroom wings, which could cause rot and damage. We installed the new siding in phases across multiple buildings over a few weeks. We worked closely with their staff to keep pathways safe and reduce noise. The new fiber cement siding and rainscreen kept out the damp, and they shared that their worries about moisture are gone. Building that kind of trust in a busy campus is why we are dedicated to serving this community.
Local Siding Installation Support
We do siding installations on Government Road as a regular part of our work in Burnaby. We get to the area easily via Highway 1, often passing through the Second Narrows area. The trip takes about 25 to 35 minutes. We get our materials from local building supply stores like Pro-West Sales Ltd. and Standard Building Supplies Ltd. This helps support the community and keeps our projects running smoothly.
We install strong siding on Government Road to keep moisture out of homes, which helps prevent rot and mold. We often use fiber cement and engineered wood over a ventilated rainscreen, with flashing and drainage planes that keep the sheathing dry during Burnaby’s heavy rains. Many older post-war homes benefit from this method because their original wood siding did not have proper drainage. You may need permits if there are structural changes or if sheathing is involved, and noise and zoning bylaws apply. Costs for fiber cement siding range from CAD 12,000 to CAD 40,000 based on complexity. We can easily reach Government Road via Highway 1 in about 25 to 35 minutes.
