Siding Contractor Calgary

Hardie Board fibre cement is exceptionally well suited to Calgary’s climate. It is hail-resistant, does not absorb moisture, handles extreme freeze-thaw cycles without warping, and is rated non-combustible. The downside is cost: it runs roughly double the installed price of vinyl. Vinyl is the most common choice in Calgary and performs well in most conditions. Insulated vinyl adds energy efficiency and reduces wall heat loss. For homeowners recovering from hail damage, upgrading from vinyl to Hardie Board at the same time as a repair is worth considering, particularly if the home has been hit more than once.

Yes. Our HAAG certification qualifies us to assess and document hail and storm damage to siding for insurance purposes. We can provide a written assessment that your insurer will accept, walk you through the documentation process, and coordinate with the adjuster where needed. We do not act as a public adjuster, but we ensure the damage is properly recorded before any repair work begins.

A standard re-siding project on a two-storey Calgary home typically takes three to five days depending on the size of the home, the material chosen, and whether any sheathing or moisture barrier repairs are needed underneath. Hardie Board takes longer than vinyl due to the weight and cutting requirements of the material. We confirm the project timeline in writing before starting.

Yes. Chinook Exteriors is a full exterior contractor. Roofing and siding are our two primary services. If your home needs both, we can coordinate the scope and timeline so the crews are sequenced correctly and the project is managed as a single job. This is more efficient and avoids the scheduling conflicts that come from hiring two separate contractors.
