Siding Contractor in Port Coquitlam

One Bridge from Our Shop

Cross the Pitt River Bridge from our office at 13490 224th St in Maple Ridge and you are in Port Coquitlam. That makes PoCo about as convenient as it gets for our crews, and it shows in responsive scheduling for everything from small siding repairs to complete recladding. Berkana Construction has served the Lower Mainland since 2019 and works for homeowners, stratas, property managers, builders and commercial owners. We are a licensed BC contractor, insured, WorkSafeBC compliant, and our written quotes cost you nothing.

Installation and Replacement Across PoCo

Port Coquitlam packs a wide range of housing ages into a compact footprint. The streets around downtown and Lower Mary Hill include homes going back to the postwar years. Glenwood, Birchland Manor, Lincoln Park and Woodland Acres filled out through the 1960s and 1970s. Citadel Heights and Riverwood came later, with much of their stock from the 1990s onward. Each era needs a different approach to siding replacement. Older homes almost always reveal surprises once the cladding comes off, so we quote with a clear process for documenting and pricing any hidden repairs rather than burying an allowance in fine print. On newer homes the focus shifts to upgrading builder-grade materials and correcting flashing details that were rushed the first time.

A City Shaped by Its Rivers

PoCo is bounded by the Pitt River, the Fraser and the Coquitlam River, with Hyde Creek and the traboulay PoCo Trail winding through the middle. All that water keeps humidity high, especially in fall and winter when walls barely dry between rain events. Low-lying streets near the rivers see damp conditions that punish any wall assembly without real drainage, while the hillside neighbourhoods trade dampness for wind exposure coming off the Fraser. Our standard practice in Port Coquitlam is a ventilated rainscreen behind every reclad, generous flashing at horizontal transitions, and sealed penetrations, because the local climate does not forgive shortcuts in any of those spots.

Materials That Make Sense Here

For river-adjacent and shaded lots we lean on James Hardie fiber cement, which stays dimensionally stable through PoCo's wet winters. Premium vinyl suits straightforward replacements on 1970s homes where budget drives the decision. Owners after a natural look choose Western Red Cedar or engineered wood, and contemporary renovations in Citadel Heights increasingly call for AL13 aluminum panels or Longboard woodgrain aluminum accents. We also install Lux steel panels and the EasyTrim Quick Panel system. During any reclad we can add exterior insulation to lift the wall's thermal performance, a sensible upgrade while the sheathing is already exposed.

Repair, Restoration and Insurance Documentation

Wind coming up the Fraser has a habit of finding the weakest course of siding on a gable end, and our repair crews spend plenty of time in PoCo after fall storms. We fix cracked and lifted panels, rebuild rot around windows and doors, and replace failing soffit and fascia that let water into the roof edge. For larger losses from water, wind or fire, we run the full restoration file: photographs, written damage documentation for your insurer, and reconstruction once the claim is approved.

Property managers and stratas in Riverwood and Citadel Heights can also lean on us for building-wide assessments, written condition reports and phased recladding plans that spread cost over more than one budget year. For a single family home the process is simpler: one visit, one document, clear numbers.
