Ideal for redwood, cedar, or other natural wood sidings — restoring rich color and long-term weather defense in harsh alpine conditions.

Perfect for mountain homes facing snow load, freeze–thaw stress, or wildfire exposure.

Replace combustible siding/trim with non-combustible or Class A assemblies, ember-resistant vents, metal flashing at roof/wall intersections, and sealed gaps. Includes documentation for insurance/code.
Rain-Screen & Flashing Upgrade
Retrofit furring/vented cavity, high-permeance WRB, head flashings, kick-out flashings, and bug screens. Cuts trapped moisture, stops paint failure, and extends siding life in freeze–thaw.
