Cedar Siding Repair: Spec & Costs
You're busy. Here is what actually matters, from our own job records - not marketing copy.
The replacement spec
- Failed shingles and siding stripped; plywood decking below catches every piece; debris hauled, dump fees included.
- New building paper first - replacing shingles over old torn paper is cosmetic, not repair.
- Pre-primed sidewall shingles, starter course, woven corners - the traditional spec Vancouver's originals were built with.
- Cut ends sealed, then primed and painted into your existing scheme by the same team.
Cedar fails quietly
Cedar siding rarely announces failure - it curls slightly, holds moisture against the paper, and rots the sheathing behind it while looking "rustic." By the time a board is soft to thumb pressure, the paper behind it has usually been compromised for years. Catching it at the curl stage is a section repair; catching it at the soft stage can be an elevation.
What we'll tell you up front
- We may find more rot above the first floor once we're up there - height carve-outs are stated in the quote.
- Repairs are based on what's visible at the estimate; hidden sheathing damage is priced when exposed, with your sign-off.
These lines come straight from our written estimates. Contractors who don't say them up front bill you for them later.
