Water damage ruining your home's exterior

Once water gets behind old wood, it spreads to nearby cladding, leading to bigger repairs. Capping seals that path before it spreads.

This upgrade also reduces the need for repainting around those openings. Instead of touching up peeling paint every spring, you can focus on other projects. That matters in this area during long wet stretches.

Prevent Wood Rot Effectively

Draft and dampness around your frames can lead to wood rot. This problem will only get worse if not fixed. The best solution is window and door capping in Vancouver. This service protects frames from rain and humidity completely.

We measure every inch of your window and door casings. Then we form and install aluminum on-site for a perfect fit. Once wrapped, your frames are sealed against moisture, UV damage, and decay. This one-time solution ends the need for scraping, filling, and repainting for good.

Protecting New Westminster Homes

New Westminster’s older homes have a classic charm, but their wooden window frames struggle against our damp climate. Moisture seeps in and causes rot, which weakens the structure and lets cold air in.

Our team understands the local conditions well—from salt air near the Fraser to the heavy rain in your area. We cap each opening tightly, keeping your home’s historic look while blocking out New Westminster‘s harsh weather. The result is lasting protection that matches the character of The Royal City.

On-Site Custom Bending

For homes in New Westminster, we use strong aluminum coil with a baked-on finish that resists moisture. Our team brings a portable brake to your property and shapes each capping piece to match your existing wood trim, including sloped sills and drip edges.

Every joint gets a bead of high-quality exterior sealant, and we secure the aluminum with stainless steel nails to avoid rust. This process covers the wood, stopping water from getting in while allowing the metal to expand and contract without damaging the coating.

Drainage Plane Integration

In New Westminster’s rainy weather, capping must work as part of the wall’s drainage system. We overlap the aluminum over the siding below each window and door, making sure water runs off and away from the opening.

The sill cap is sloped outward and has a drip edge to break surface tension, while the head flashing fits under the upper weather-resistant barrier. We leave the bottom edge of the capping unsealed so any condensation can escape, helping the wood dry out toward the outside.

New Westminster Permit Requirements

For exterior remodeling work like window and door capping, construction noise is allowed between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. on weekdays and between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays. No construction noise is permitted on Sundays or statutory holidays. Working outside these hours needs a noise bylaw variance approved by City Council.

Window and door capping that changes exterior cladding, window or door assemblies, or other building parts must follow New Westminster’s Building Bylaw. It may require a building permit based on the work’s scope and whether structural or weather-protection elements are involved.

For homes in New Westminster’s Queen’s Park Heritage Conservation Area, any exterior change visible from the street—including changes to window and door openings or exterior cladding—usually needs a Heritage Alteration Permit along with any building permit. Minor replacements that do not change the external appearance may be exempt, but more significant changes to street-facing walls, side walls visible from the street, or visible rooflines must be reviewed by the City to keep the heritage character.

Community Project Approach

Imagine a project at a school in New Westminster where old window casings were failing. Moisture was getting in and threatening the building’s structure. We worked in phases across different areas, capping every window and door with custom-bent aluminum. This fixed the problem while the school continued its daily activities. The result was a sealed, maintenance-free exterior that stopped the leaks and gave the staff one less worry.

We can reach the area easily from Vancouver using Highway 1 and Brunette Avenue, which usually takes about 25 to 35 minutes. We also support the local economy by getting supplies from stores like Griff Building Supplies Ltd. and Can-Am Building Supply Ltd.
