THE PROJECT, WEEK BY WEEK

What a Blaine Re-Side Actually Looks Like

From first walkthrough to final city inspection — the sequence is the same on every home; only the rot repair in the middle varies.

1

On-Site Estimate & Written Bid

WEEK 0

We walk every elevation of your Blaine home, measure, and write an itemized bid specific to the house — product recommendations included, boilerplate not.

2

Permit & Materials

WEEKS 1–3 BEFORE START

City of Blaine permit pulled if your scope needs one, the products and colors a Semiahmoo HOA submittal asks for itemized in your bid where it applies, and materials ordered so nothing stalls mid-project.

3

Tear-Off & Sheathing Inspection

DAYS 1–3

Old siding comes off completely. Sheathing and framing get inspected wall by wall; any rot is photographed and priced for your approval before rebuild.

4

Weather Barrier, Flashing & New Siding

DAY 3 ONWARD — PACED TO THE PROJECT

The layers that matter go on: weather barrier lapped for wind-driven rain, flashing at every penetration, then siding fastened to manufacturer spec. Walls are dried in the same day they're opened.

5

Cleanup, City Inspection & Walkthrough

FINAL DAYS

Magnet sweep and full site cleanup, final municipal inspection passed, and a walkthrough with you — touch-ups handled on the spot, warranty paperwork in hand.

What Drives the Price of a Blaine Re-Side

No two bids should look alike, because no two houses do. In Blaine the big variables are the ones below — and every one of them is itemized in your written estimate, so you can see exactly where the number comes from.

Home Size & Stories
Wall area drives material; height drives staging and labor. Waterfront access and corrosion-rated hardware move the number more than square footage.
Housing Era
Pre-1978 homes need lead-safe practices (we're a certified firm); craftsman-era trim detail takes more time than 1990s subdivision profiles.
Rot Repair
The genuine unknown. Walls facing the harbor and the strait usually carry some — photographed and priced before rebuild, never buried in the bid.
Material Choice
Fiber cement costs more per square foot than engineered wood but ends the repaint cycle. We quote options side by side so the trade-off is yours.
What We Find Under Blaine Homes

Blaine's walls tell the town's whole story when they open up: century-old cannery-era framing behind the cottages near Peace Portal, tar-paper barriers decades past their service life, corroded fasteners bleeding rust down sheathing on strait-facing elevations, and swollen seams behind the '80s–'90s wood-based boards. Salt accelerates all of it — which is why the rebuild spec matters as much as the repair.

Whatever we find is photographed and priced before rebuild — never a surprise on the invoice.

Can You Re-Side in the Rainy Season?

Yes — we re-side Blaine homes year-round. Walls are opened in sections and dried in the same day, never left exposed overnight. Winter scheduling is often faster to book; the detailing that keeps a wall dry for thirty years doesn't care what month it went on.

WHY WE RECOMMEND FIBER CEMENT

Our Recommendation for Blaine: James Hardie Fiber Cement

We install several siding materials, and we recommend fiber cement — James Hardie specifically — for nearly every home we work on in Blaine. In a wind-driven-rain state, fiber cement doesn’t rot, doesn’t feed moss, doesn’t warp, and shrugs off the freeze-thaw cycles that crack lesser boards. It carries a 30-year substrate warranty, and ColorPlus factory finishes hold their color for 15 warranted years without repainting.

As a James Hardie Elite Contractor we install to the spec that keeps that warranty valid — fastening, clearances, and flashing details checked on every wall. If a different material genuinely fits your project better, we’ll say so plainly in the bid — but for most Blaine homes, Hardie is the answer we’d put on our own house.

THE HONEST NUMBERS
01 · PRICING

What Siding Replacement Costs in Blaine

Most single-family whole-home projects typically land between $20,000 and $60,000. Home size and stories move the number most; the other big lever is combining windows with the re-side — window replacement runs typically 25%+ less per window during a siding project, since demolition, disposal, and admin overhead are already covered.

Nationally, fiber cement siding replacement is one of the best-returning exterior projects at resale — recent Cost vs. Value Report data puts its cost recoup above 100% (a national figure; local results vary). Every bid is measured at your home and itemized — rot is photographed and priced before rebuild, never buried. Financing options are available.

02 · TIMELINE

How Long a Re-Side Takes

Typically one to four weeks on site for a full home, depending on size, sheathing condition, how much rot we find, and whether we're painting.

The schedule is written into the bid, and the final inspection is part of it — the job is not done until it passes.

03 · WARRANTIES

What Stands Behind the Work

James Hardie siding carries a 30-year substrate warranty, with ColorPlus finishes warranted for 15 years.

Our own workmanship warranty is included on every project — terms spelled out in your bid.
