Siding in Selkirk
Re-siding the steel town on the Red, from mill-era homes to newer subdivisions, twenty minutes past the Perimeter.
Selkirk has been a working town on the Red River since 1882, steel from the rolling mills, the largest mental-health centre in the province, and a downtown that greets you with a twenty-five-foot catfish. It is also ten and a half thousand people living in four and a half thousand dwellings that face Interlake weather head-on, and Winnipeg Quality Siding treats it as home ground, not an out-of-town call.
A Century of Housing, One River
The mill has anchored Selkirk work for over a hundred years, and the housing tells that story in rings: early-1900s and interwar homes near the core, postwar blocks from the mill’s strong decades, and newer subdivisions filling the edges. The older rings are deep into second and third cladding generations, and tear-offs there read like local history, plank sheathing, decades of layered exteriors, and walls that have earned proper repair before anything new goes on.
The Red River is the other constant. Selkirk sits low along its floodplain reach, and the spring the river rises hard, the ground around foundations saturates and stays that way. Cladding details that merely suffice on high ground, flashing, clearances, drainage planes, are the actual defence here. Winters compound it: this stretch of the valley has recorded lows in the minus-forties, the kind of cold that makes brittle vinyl snap and finds every fastener driven too tight.
The Work We Do in Selkirk
Full replacements on the century-and-postwar core, with vinyl as the working town’s sensible default and metal siding earning its keep on exposed properties and the acreages ringing town. Eavestrough work rides along on most jobs, because moving roof water away from foundations matters double on floodplain clay. And wind repairs, this is open country, and the prairie tests every wall’s fastening schedule eventually.

Selkirk Siding Questions
Do you charge extra to come out to Selkirk?
No. Selkirk is inside our normal service area, about twenty minutes up Highway 9 from the Perimeter, and we schedule jobs there alongside our Winnipeg work. The written quote you get is the whole price.
What kind of siding work do Selkirk homes need?
The older core, housing that grew up with the mill over the past century, brings full re-sides with real wall repair underneath. The newer subdivisions mostly need repairs, wind damage, and upgrades when owners want to leave builder-grade cladding behind. Riverfront properties add the moisture conversation on top.
