Our Services

Each service is built for Missoula weather and your home's unique needs.

Siding Installation

New construction or full replacement. We select materials rated for heavy snow loads and rapid temperature swings. Fiber cement, vinyl, and James Hardie products all perform well in neighborhoods across Rose Park, South Hills, and the Lower Rattlesnake.

Proper housewrap and flashing stop water before it reaches your walls. Freeze-thaw protection starts underneath.

Siding Replacement

Faded, warped, or aging siding drags down curb appeal and lets in cold air. Full replacement upgrades insulation and resale value. Near the Westside and downtown Historic District, we match architectural styles while boosting energy efficiency.

Better insulation means lower heating bills through long Montana winters. Modern materials resist mold, moisture, and pests.

Exterior Painting

Paint protects wood and fiber cement siding from UV fading and weather. We use primers and topcoats designed for extreme temperature shifts. In neighborhoods near Clark Fork River and Caras Park, paint shields your siding year-round.

Proper surface prep and cure time prevent peeling and cracking in freeze-thaw cycles.

Old windows and doors leak cold air and moisture. Replacement units with proper sills and flashing keep your interior dry. Common in Grant Creek and Northside homes where drafts mean higher heating costs.

New windows reduce energy bills and prevent ice dam–related water damage around frames.

Why Local Expertise Matters

Missoula's weather is not like the rest of Montana. Your siding faces unique stresses that only a local contractor understands.

Freeze-Thaw Cycles Are Relentless

Water seeps into tiny cracks, freezes, expands, and splits siding apart. This happens repeatedly each season in Missoula. We use flashing and underlayment to stop water before it even touches your frame.

Historic Home Respect

Much of Missoula's charm comes from craftsman and Victorian homes built before 1950. Replacing siding on these structures near Rose Park and the Historic District requires knowledge of proper proportion, material selection, and building codes. We balance preservation with modern performance.

Snow Load Planning

Heavy snow piles against siding, creating weight and moisture pockets. We inspect gutters, downspouts, and grading during planning to move water safely away from your foundation.

Materials tested for -33°F cold snaps and summer heat over 100°F. That's Missoula weather in full range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What siding materials work best in Missoula's freeze-thaw climate?

Fiber cement, vinyl, and James Hardie panels are top choices because they resist moisture absorption and handle rapid temperature swings without cracking or warping. Wood and composite need frequent sealing to protect against freeze-thaw damage.

How often should I inspect my siding?

Fall and spring are ideal. Look for cracks, loose panels, water stains, mold, and gaps around windows and doors. Catch small issues before winter snow and freeze-thaw cycles expand them into expensive damage.

Does siding replacement improve energy efficiency?

Yes. New siding with proper insulation and housewrap reduces heating costs significantly. Montana winters are long and cold; better insulation means real savings month after month.

Can I schedule siding work during winter?

Cold temperatures make sealing and paint cure difficult. Spring through fall is ideal. We can handle urgent repairs year-round, but new installation waits for warmer, dry conditions.

How long does siding replacement take?

Depends on home size and material. A typical single-story home takes 5–10 days. We'll provide a timeline during your estimate. Weather delays might extend schedules, so planning ahead is smart.

What permits are needed for siding work in Missoula?

Most siding replacement requires a permit. Historic District and historic home projects have extra requirements. We handle all paperwork and inspections so you don't have to.
