At The Forefront Of Siding Repair Science
While a small percentage of siding repairs are caused by faulty materials, high winds, or some form of external impact damage, most siding repairs are necessary because of moisture intrusion, which is a common problem here in the Pacific Northwest. SFW Construction strives to be at the forefront of waterproofing and moisture prevention building science. Simply removing and replacing damaged or defective siding products are only part of a lasting and meaningful siding repair. It is critical that your siding contractor cares enough, and has the requisite knowledge, to diagnose the causation of the core issue that led to the damage. SFW Construction wants to ensure that the repair lasts for decades and isolating the root cause is the first step in making sure the issue doesn’t reoccur. After locating the moisture intrusion point(s) we will use the best moisture barriers, self-adhesive membranes, elastomeric sealants, and custom fabricated metal flashings to waterproof the repair.
Portland Siding Replacement
If a full siding replacement IS necessary, we are Portland’s go-to siding contractor for that too. Our siding installation crews are among the very best in Oregon. While Oregon homeowners have a wide variety of siding options available to them, SFW Construction recommends and specializes in the installation of premium James Hardie fiber cement siding as well as the always-popular cedar wood siding.

A great siding job is more than what you see on the outside of the home. Part of being Portland’s best siding contractor means using the industry’s very best products UNDERNEATH the siding too. We’re proud to say we exclusively use DuPont/Tyvek materials for the critically important weather barriers and flashings, meaning our customers receive the very finest the industry has to offer, as well as DuPont’s all-inclusive warranty. Don’t fall for siding contractors who offer lower prices by cutting costs with lower-quality materials, or by cutting corners in ANY way, for that matter. Your home is too important an investment!
What About Painting, Staining, And Coating?
We’re glad you asked! Why not make this easy and allow our professional painting department, SFW Painting, to put the finishing touches on your siding project? Our carpenters will use pre-primed siding material during the siding repair process. As a matter of fact, they will prime all the cut edges during the installation. This is a critical step (often omitted by other siding companies) that ensures every surface of your siding and trim is sealed against the elements. Upon completion of the siding repair or siding installation, our painters can execute any exterior coating to perfection.
Are You Ready To Discuss Your Portland Siding Repair Project?
Our team is standing by and ready to go over the entire siding repair process with you! We will set up a detailed walk-through with one of our siding experts at your convenience so you can discuss what the project entails and have a good understanding of all that’s involved. When you feel comfortable with the planned course of action, we will schedule a work date that works within your schedule. We will coordinate the siding project from start to finish; through the demo, the dry rot inspection, installation of the weather-resistant barrier (WRB), and finally, the installation of your exterior finishes. We’ll be as accommodating as possible and keep you informed, from start to finish. We want your experience with SFW Construction to be nothing but positive!
