Vinyl Siding


Vinyl siding is a very popular choice across Canada. It comes in a wide variety of colours, making it easy to customize your home with a bold colour or a lovely two-tone look. Vinyl stands up well to a variety of weather but can fade after 10 to 15 years, depending on the colour and the level of UV exposure. Due to its composition, vinyl siding is fire-resistant up to high temperatures before melting or damage occurs and is less susceptible to pests. It can be installed horizontally which is most common and some styles of vinyl siding can be installed vertically creating a unique look unlike your neighbours. Whatever your personal style we can accommodate in new siding installations that you can be proud of.

Wood Siding


If you are looking for a timeless exterior or a natural finish, then you may want to consider wood siding. With up to seven different wood types and seven different styles to choose from, you are sure to find something that you like. Some of the common styles installed include: wood shingles and vertical boards. Wood is a good choice because it can be easily painted or stained depending on the esthetic look you want for your siding. Wood siding requires more maintenance than vinyl to ensure that it does not become susceptible to pests, rot, or warping. The maintenance we recommend is refurbishing the finish by sanding it down, painting and resealing the exterior coat every 3-4 years.

Metal Siding


Metal siding can be divided into either aluminum or steel siding. Aluminum is a lighter material that is easy to install but can dent easier, while steel is heavier and stronger. Both types of metal siding can come in a wide variety of colours and styles. They provide great weather protection and are naturally resistant to pests and rot. Steel and aluminum are also great for preventing coastal moisture from penetrating your home. This is ideal in the Burnaby and Richmond areas due to the close geographical proximity to the Fraser River that runs into the Pacific Ocean. As we all know, it rains for over half the year in our area. Needless to say metal siding is one of the best choices for fire-resistance due to it's durability and low flammability properties.

Siding Repair and Replacement

 

Damaged or ageing siding concerns are important to address promptly. Delays in siding maintenance or replacement can result in more substantial repairs needed beyond the siding and can jeopardize the integrity of your home. Your siding protects your insulation, vapour barrier, framing, and interior walls like your drywall and painting. As one example, if your siding isn't effective and allows water to penetrate your home, your framing absorbs that moisture putting the structural integrity of that wall at risk. Here are four reasons to call Siding Pros of Richmond to get your siding fixed or replaced.

Water and Weather Damage

Water damage can come into your home from cracks or broken panels of siding. Extreme weather might also damage your siding through hail or heavy rain storms. After extreme weather, it is important to inspect your siding thoroughly to ensure there has not been any damage. Unseen damage from water or weather can easily spread over time. There are other external hazards that could be on your property like tree branches that hit the siding and puncture holes. Wood siding that isn't properly maintained could be at risk of absorbing moisture into the siding. If your metal siding is extremely old it could be susceptible to rusting.

Fungus, Mould, and Mildew

Seeing signs of fungus, mold or mildew on your siding is never a good thing. If you are lucky, it is only on the surface and can be treated with pressure washing, but if you are unlucky, then it may have penetrated deeper into your home. Once mold or mildew has gotten into your exterior walls, especially in wood siding, you’ll want to get that section of siding replaced. You will possibly want look at replacing all of your siding to ensure there is no further spread. Not only are these fungal and growth issues unsightly, but they have the potential to spread further into the structure of your home and cause health issues for you and your family. 

Curb Appeal

Updating your siding is one of the quickest ways to give your home exterior a makeover. This is a great way to upgrade your home to keep your home looking modern and presenting a look that represents your personality. Something to keep in mind, this is especially true if you are looking to sell your home. Potential buyers will be more interested in seeing the interior if the outside already looks nice. Buyers will see this and could be concerned about what other renovation costs could arise should they choose to purchase your residential property in Burnaby, BC.

Warping, Cracks, or Rot

This damage can happen naturally over time and leaves your home exposed to the elements. If there is excessive warping, cracks, or rot in your siding, then your siding is not doing its job of protecting your home from moisture or pests, leaving you vulnerable to further damage. Warping in vinyl siding is commonly caused by the changes in temperature as it expands and contracts. Cracks in your siding can be caused from various things such as something hitting it or puncturing it. Rot is most common is wood siding that hasn't been maintained properly, but rot isn't only limited to wood.
