Metal Siding in Downtown Vancouver

Steel, Aluminum & Standing-Seam Metal Cladding for Homes & Businesses

Nixon Exteriors provides metal siding in Downtown Vancouver, serving homeowners and property managers across Coal Harbour, Yaletown, Gastown, Chinatown and surrounding neighbourhoods. We install steel, aluminum, and standing-seam metal siding — durable, fire-resistant, modern exterior cladding, including wood-look profiles, over a proper rainscreen. Downtown's wind-tunnel effect between towers and coastal rain exposure requires windows with enhanced wind ratings and superior weatherproofing for high-rise safety — so the metal cladding sits on a ventilated rainscreen with corrosion-resistant fasteners built for the coastal climate. Windows, doors, and cladding are handled by one accountable crew, with $5M liability coverage and WorkSafeBC compliance on every job.

How We Approach Metal Siding

Durable & Fire-Resistant

Metal siding stands up to the coast, resists fire, and holds its finish for decades with minimal maintenance.

Modern Looks

From standing-seam to wood-look profiles, metal gives a clean, contemporary facade in a wide range of colours.

Over a Real Rainscreen

Every panel goes on a ventilated, drained cavity with full flashing — the same envelope standard as the rest of your exterior.
