Protect Your Home's Exterior
Moisture can ruin paint and rot the wood around your windows and doors. Our aluminum capping creates a watertight barrier that stops rain before it reaches the trim.
We custom-bend the metal on-site for a perfect fit and secure it without exposed fasteners. This gives you a durable, low-maintenance finish that never needs scraping or repainting. Window and door capping in Vancouver provides homeowners with a lasting exterior solution.
Coal Harbour’s waterfront location means homes face constant salt spray and heavy rainfall. Exposed wood trim here decays faster than in almost any other part of the Lower Mainland.
Many buildings in the area are modern high-rises with large windows. Our capping fits well with these designs, giving a clean, uniform look that protects windows and doors for decades. We’ve completed hundreds of installations in Coal Harbour.
Custom Aluminum Capping Techniques
Our installers use a portable brake to shape each piece of aluminum coil on-site. This matches the exact size and style of your window or door casing. We use heavy-gauge prepainted aluminum with a PVDF coating. This coating resists the salt spray and moisture found in Coal Harbour’s waterfront air.
Large windows in local high-rises need careful jointing. We shingle all overlaps downward and use a marine-grade sealant at every seam. This helps accommodate thermal movement. Fasteners are hidden behind nailing flanges. Complex architectural profiles get a multi-piece interlocking design to ensure water sheds away continuously.
Behind every piece of capping, we keep a small drained cavity that shingles over the wall’s water-resistive barrier. This ensures any moisture that gets in can escape. The bottom drip leg is hemmed outward to direct water away from the sill and siding. This prevents weeping or staining on the wall below.
On wind-exposed high-rises, we balance pressure by adding weep openings and aligning the capping with the window frame’s drainage channels. We attach the capping using exposed-location fastening patterns to resist uplift. No face fasteners puncture the outer surface, making the capping a durable, low-maintenance option in Coal Harbour’s marine environment.
Coal Harbour Permit Guidelines
In Coal Harbour, the City of Vancouver’s Noise Control By-law No. 6555 limits construction noise. For window and door capping, noisy work like cutting and fastening metal cladding can only happen Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. No construction noise is allowed on Sundays or holidays unless a special exception permit is obtained.
The Vancouver Building By-law (VBBL) sets technical standards for exterior cladding and flashing. Any window and door capping work must meet VBBL requirements for weather protection, rain penetration control, and corrosion-resistant materials. Proper installation details keep your home’s exterior envelope code-compliant and prevent water ingress.
While Coal Harbour is a modern neighbourhood, some buildings may be on the City of Vancouver’s Heritage Register or follow design guidelines. If your home or strata is affected, window and door capping could need a heritage alteration permit. Any exterior changes must keep the approved façade appearance, materials, and detailing to follow these regulations.
We recently worked on a project at a school in Coal Harbour. Their old wood window and door trim was peeling and rotting. This allowed drafts and moisture to enter their classrooms. We capped every opening in several buildings with custom aluminum to fix this problem. We planned the work around their daily schedule to avoid disruption. Now, they have a weathertight campus that keeps out drafts and moisture, making it a reliable community building.
Local Supplies for Capping
We often do window and door capping in Coal Harbour. It is a neighborhood we serve regularly. We can reach the area quickly via West Cordova Street and Burrard Street. We pass landmarks like Canada Place and the Vancouver Convention Centre. The trip takes about 5 to 10 minutes. We support the community by buying supplies at local hardware stores like West End Paint & Hardware and The Little Hardware Company.
Peeling paint and rotting wood around windows and doors let moisture in, so we install custom aluminum capping that keeps out rain and prevents damage. We use heavy-gauge prepainted aluminum with a PVDF coating, bent on-site for a perfect fit, and secure it without visible fasteners for easy maintenance. Coal Harbour’s waterfront location means constant salt spray and heavy rain, which speeds up wood decay, but our capping holds up well in this marine environment. Permits must follow Vancouver’s noise bylaw hours (Monday to Friday 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.) and meet VBBL weather-protection standards, with heritage permits needed for some buildings. For standard aluminum, costs usually range from CAD 1,500 to CAD 6,800 based on the complexity of the profile. We can reach Coal Harbour quickly and have completed hundreds of installations here.
