Your home's first line of defence.
Siding is the exterior cladding that covers your home's walls — it's the first line of defence against wind, rain, hail, UV radiation, and temperature extremes. Shaam Gutters installs vinyl siding, properly fitted and sealed for Alberta's demanding climate.
Vinyl siding is durable, low-maintenance, and cost-effective. It resists moisture, holds colour for decades, and never needs painting. Impact-rated options are available to stand up to Alberta's active hail season.
Calgary sits in one of the most active hail corridors in North America. A single large-hail event can puncture or crack siding and leave your home vulnerable to water infiltration behind the cladding. Choosing impact-rated vinyl siding — and having it installed properly — is one of the best decisions an Alberta homeowner can make for long-term protection.
Beyond hail, Alberta's chinook winds drive rain horizontally against your walls with significant force. Poorly installed siding — missing laps, unfastened edges, inadequate housewrap — allows water to get behind the cladding and into your wall assembly, causing mould, rot, and insulation failure that's expensive to remediate. Proper installation is as important as the material itself.
Class 4 impact-rated siding absorbs hail strikes without cracking or puncturing — protecting your walls and potentially qualifying your home for insurance discounts.
New siding installed over insulated housewrap tightens your building envelope, reducing heat loss in winter and keeping your home cooler in summer.
Modern vinyl siding holds its colour for decades and requires nothing more than an occasional rinse. No scraping, no priming, no annual painting.
We inspect your existing siding and wall sheathing, measure all wall areas, and recommend the right product for your home, budget, and exposure level.
Old siding is removed and the wall sheathing is inspected for moisture damage. Any problem areas are identified and addressed before new cladding goes on.
A proper moisture barrier and housewrap is installed over the entire wall — a critical step that is often skipped but essential for long-term performance in Alberta's climate.
New siding panels are installed from the bottom up, trimmed neatly at all windows, doors, and corners, and sealed at all penetrations before final cleanup.
