Seattle, WA · King County
Seattle re-sides are usually about detail work, not just cladding. Tight lots, mixed materials and older framing mean the flashing and weather-barrier details decide whether the wall lasts. We have done full custom Hardie panel with metal trim and cedar accents near Cherry Street. Family-owned, second generation, with an itemised written quote before any deposit.
James Hardie, LP SmartSide, cedar, and metal siding installation in Seattle and surrounding King County neighborhoods. Free in-home estimates. 2-year workmanship + manufacturer warranties.
From Capitol Hill craftsman bungalows to Ballard mid-century homes to Queen Anne Victorians and the modern infill of West Seattle, every Seattle neighborhood has its own architectural personality. The wrong siding can flatten that character. The right siding — installed correctly — preserves it for decades. Seattle's combination of marine air, near-constant rain from October to May, and dramatic temperature swings tests siding harder than almost anywhere in the country. The materials we install — James Hardie fiber cement, LP SmartSide engineered wood, cedar, and metal cladding — are built for exactly this climate.

James Hardie fiber cement and LP SmartSide engineered wood are the two top performers in the Seattle area. Both resist moisture, hold paint longer than vinyl or hardboard, and carry 30-year and 50-year manufacturer warranties respectively. Cedar is also an excellent choice if you want a natural look and are willing to maintain it with stain or oil every 5-7 years.
Most full siding replacements on a single-family Seattle home fall between $22,000 and $65,000 depending on square footage, material, trim complexity, and dry rot repair. Seattle labor and permit costs run slightly higher than the South Sound average. We give you an itemized written estimate on the first visit.
A typical Seattle single-family home takes 5 to 12 working days from tear-off to final cleanup. Larger homes, complex trim work, or significant dry rot repair can extend that timeline. We give you a firm start and finish date before we begin.
Yes — and it's the smart move. Replacing windows during a siding project gives a cleaner flashing job, a better weather seal, and saves on trim labor. We install vinyl, fiberglass, and wood-clad replacement windows alongside any siding job.
