Craftsman character, built to last

This Stittsville bungalow has all the bones of a classic craftsman home: a wide covered porch, timber posts and brackets, stone veneer along the base, and twin gables facing the street. The exterior finish needed to match that character, not fight it.

We installed wood composite lap siding in a soft sage green, with white trim around the windows and corners for a crisp, finished look. The colour sits beautifully against the grey stone and the dark-stained timbers, and the long horizontal lap lines emphasize the low, wide profile that makes a bungalow look so inviting.

Every course was laid level and true, every joint was staggered and properly gapped, and every window, door and roof-to-wall intersection was flashed before the siding went on. That's the work you don't see in the photos, and it's the reason this siding will still look this good years from now.

Wood Composite Siding Installation in Stittsville: the finished result

Curb appeal that shines after dark

Look at the dusk photo. The soffit lights wash down over the sage siding, the gables glow, and the timbers stand out in silhouette. This is the kind of home that makes neighbours slow down on an evening walk.

Sage green is having a moment for good reason: it feels natural and calm, it pairs perfectly with stone, and it reads as both timeless and current. Combined with the clean shadow lines of quality lap siding, it gives this home a warm, polished, high-end look from every angle.

Why professional siding installation protects your home

Wood composite siding is engineered to resist moisture, rot, impact and fading far better than natural wood, but the material is only half the story. Siding that's installed without proper attention will let water in no matter how good the product is.

On every job we focus on the details that keep water out of the wall: a continuous weather barrier behind the siding, flashing and drip caps above windows and doors, kick-out flashing where roofs meet walls, correct clearances above the stone and grade, and fasteners set so the boards can expand and contract through Ottawa's hot summers and deep-freeze winters. Get those right and you protect the sheathing, framing and insulation behind the siding for decades.

What a professional siding installation includes

  • Continuous weather-resistive barrier (house wrap) lapped shingle-style so water always runs out, never in
  • Head flashing and drip caps over every window and door
  • Kick-out and step flashing wherever a roof meets a wall
  • Manufacturer-spec fastening and gapping so siding can expand and contract through Ottawa's temperature swings
  • Proper clearances above grade, decks, roofs and masonry
  • Sealed, flashed penetrations for vents, lights, taps and hose bibs
  • Sheathing inspection, with any moisture damage shown to you before it's covered

Shortcuts on any of these are what cause hidden rot, mould and drafts years later — and they can void the siding manufacturer's warranty.

Siding for Stittsville homes

Stittsville has grown fast. Alongside its established neighbourhoods there are plenty of newer homes and larger country-style properties at the edge of town, with more and more owners investing in upgraded exteriors that stand out. Wood composite siding is a natural fit here: it suits craftsman, farmhouse and modern styles alike and handles west-end Ottawa weather with ease.

Whether you're finishing a new build, replacing tired vinyl, or adding character to a plain facade, we bring the same itemized quote, firm schedule, and owner-managed workmanship to every Stittsville project.

Questions about this Stittsville project

What's the difference between wood composite and real wood siding?
Wood composite (engineered wood) siding is made from wood fibres bonded with resins and protective treatments. It keeps the look of wood while resisting rot, moisture, insects and splitting far better, and it usually comes prefinished, so there's far less maintenance than with cedar.
Does wood composite siding hold up in Ottawa winters?
Yes, when it's installed correctly. Proper gapping and fastening let it move with temperature swings, and a well-flashed installation keeps meltwater out of the wall during freeze-thaw cycles.
Do you serve all of Stittsville?
Yes. We work throughout Stittsville and the surrounding west end, including Kanata and the rural properties nearby.
