Siding contractor in Sprucedale.

Siding on a wooded lot

Many properties around Sprucedale sit among tall spruce and pine. Trees give shade and privacy, and they also keep walls damp. A north wall under evergreens stays wet after rain, grows moss and algae on the siding and ages faster than a sunny wall.

The right material and the right details help. Steel and vinyl resist moisture and clean up with a wash. Stained wood looks good but needs a regular finish, and the shaded wall needs it first. We look at the lot when we quote and suggest a material that fits it.

Homes, cabins and the outbuildings that go with them

• Year-round houses on rural lots
• Cabins and hunting camps
• Detached garages and shops
• Barns and storage buildings
• Additions that need to match an older wall

A shop wall with steel siding handles knocks from equipment. A cabin with board and batten fits its setting. An addition needs a close match to the old wall, and that takes a careful look at profile, width and colour.

How a Sprucedale job runs

1. Text photos of each wall to (705) 238-8634.
2. Dylan reviews them and tells you what he sees.
3. For larger jobs, he visits the site and sets the price.
4. The crew strips the old siding, checks the wall, installs wrap and flashing and hangs the new cladding.
5. We trim and seal the joints and clear the site.

The job often turns up rot at the bottom of a wall or under a window. We repair it as part of the work. See rot repair in Sprucedale.

Moss, algae and cleaning

A shaded wall grows a green film. On vinyl and steel, a soft brush and a mild wash clear it. On wood, growth can work into the grain and the finish. Cleaning more often costs less than a refinish. If one wall keeps turning green, check the gutters and the grade near it, because extra water feeds the growth.

Matching an addition to an older wall

An addition that does not match the old wall shows from the road. Matching means more than colour. Profile, board width, trim detail and the way the corners look all matter. Send photos of both walls, and measure a board's exposed width. We tell you what is available and what looks close. In some cases, new siding on both the old wall and the addition gives the best result.

Steel siding on shops and garages

Steel panels take knocks from tools and equipment, shed water and snow and need little upkeep. A shop needs clean trim at doors and a closed wall at the base so animals and snow stay out. We install steel on outbuildings and homes. Tell us what the building holds and how you use it, and we suggest the profile and trim.

What to send for a siding quote

• Photos of each wall, from a few steps back and up close
• Photos of any soft or stained boards
• The building type and its rough size
• The material you have now, if you know it
• Whether the building has an addition or a different wall style to match

Send those to (705) 238-8634. For a property near Sprucedale, a site visit follows when the job calls for it.

Cabins, camps and seasonal buildings

A cabin used a few months a year needs simple, durable siding. Board and batten in steel or vinyl handles the weather and needs little care. Stained wood looks natural in the trees and asks for a refinish every few years. Tell us how often you use the cabin and how much upkeep you want, and we match the material to that.
