Siding in Spokane Valley, WA

Spokane Valley siding problems can be dated almost exactly by the decade the house went up. The 1950s and 60s ranches carry aluminum that has chalked to a flat pastel and dents when a hose hits it. The 1970s and 80s homes carry hardboard or T1-11 that swells and crumbles along the bottom edge. The later homes carry thin vinyl that has gone brittle and cracked in the cold.

All three fail in the same three places: the bottom course near grade, around the windows, and on the south and west walls that take the afternoon sun. The Valley’s bright dry summers and hard winter freezes work every seam twice a year. Replacement is worth doing as a system, with new house wrap and correct flashing at every opening, because that is the part that actually keeps water out of the wall.

Local considerations in Spokane Valley

Hardboard is the one we get called about most in the Valley. It was the standard cladding on a great many homes built here in the 1970s and 80s, and it fails predictably: soft and swollen at the bottom, paint blowing off in sheets, and soft sheathing behind it once water has been getting in for a few years. We check the sheathing before quoting a cladding, because siding installed over rotted substrate is not a siding job, it is a repair waiting to be uncovered. Fiber cement and modern insulated vinyl both do well in the Valley swing between deep cold and dry heat. Re-siding here is permitted through the City of Spokane Valley Permit Center, a separate jurisdiction from the City of Spokane.

Professional Siding Installation

Siding is a rain screen, not a skin. The water-resistive barrier behind it, the flashing at every window and door, and the clearances at grade and roof lines are what keep the wall dry. We replace all of it, not only the boards you can see from the street.
