Why Port Moody Chooses Nixon Exteriors
We re-clad and finish Port Moody's single-family homes, townhouses, condominiums. Port Moody's transformation from industrial to residential hub means many properties are being renovated — window and door upgrades are a top priority for new and existing homeowners.
Port Moody receives among the highest rainfall in Metro Vancouver. Products must be specifically rated for heavy precipitation and the city's unique inlet microclimate. We specify the cladding system and rainscreen detailing that handles those exact conditions.
Because we install the windows and the cladding, every head, sill, jamb, and penetration in your Port Moody home is flashed as one continuous system — no gaps between trades.

Over a Rainscreen
Port Moody receives among the highest rainfall in Metro Vancouver. Products must be specifically rated for heavy precipitation and the city's unique inlet microclimate. A pressure-equalized rainscreen — furring, a drained cavity, and back-ventilation behind the cladding — is what keeps that moisture out of the structure in Port Moody.
Flashed at Every Opening
Window heads, sills, jambs, decks, and penetrations are flashed and taped before cladding goes on. Because Nixon Exteriors installs the windows too, these details are never an afterthought in Port Moody.
To Manufacturer Spec
Fastener type, spacing, clearances, and expansion gaps follow each manufacturer install manual — the requirement to keep your product warranty valid.

Siding FAQ — Port Moody
How much does siding cost in Port Moody?
In Port Moody, James Hardie fiber cement installed over a rainscreen typically runs $14–$24 per square foot depending on profile, building height, and access. Vinyl is lower; architectural metal and ACM panels are higher. We provide a fixed quote after assessing your wall.
Do you install over a rainscreen in Port Moody?
Always. A ventilated, drained rainscreen cavity is essential in Port Moody's climate and required for most walls under the BC Building Code. We never face-fasten cladding directly to the weather barrier.
Is James Hardie better than vinyl for Port Moody homes?
Fiber cement is non-combustible, more durable, and holds paint far longer — a strong fit for Port Moody lot lines and fire-spacing requirements. Vinyl costs less and is lower-maintenance. We help you weigh budget against performance and look.
Can you re-clad my Port Moody home and keep the existing windows?
Often yes — but a re-clad is the ideal time to upgrade windows, since the openings are exposed and we can flash everything together. We'll advise based on the condition of your existing units.
