Siding in Transcona

Siding replacement for Transcona homes, from railway-era houses near the old townsite to the newer builds in Canterbury Park.

Transcona grew up around the railway. The shops that opened in 1908 brought the workers, the workers built the houses, and a lot of those houses are still standing between the old townsite and Regent Avenue. We do siding work across Transcona, and the age range of its housing stock means no two quotes look quite the same.

Transcona Walls Have Been Through a Lot

The oldest homes here, the railway-worker houses from before the 1920s, have usually carried three or four generations of cladding. Under the current layer there is often original plank sheathing that needs attention before anything new goes on. The postwar streets in Radisson, Regent and Melrose are lined with 1940s and 1950s houses whose stucco and early siding are simply at the end of their run. Kildare-Redonda and Canterbury Park bungalows from the 1960s onward mostly need a clean tear-off and re-side.

There is also the ground itself. Transcona is where the famous 1913 grain elevator settled into the clay, an event engineers still study, and the same Red River clay sits under the houses. Walls here move with the seasons. Siding that was fastened tight ten years ago shows it now, with gaps opening at corners and buckled courses above the openings. When we install in Transcona, panels get hung to move and flashing gets set for a wall that will not sit perfectly still.

The east side of the neighbourhood runs up against the Floodway and open prairie, and the wind that comes across it works on cladding harder than sheltered streets closer to the city. Loose courses and lifted trim on an east-facing wall are one of the most common calls we get from this part of Winnipeg.

Siding Work We Do in Transcona

Most Transcona jobs are full replacements, and vinyl siding is the most common choice on these streets. We also handle soffit, fascia and the trim details that finish the job properly. Every quote starts with a look at the actual wall, so a railway-era house near the museum and a newer build in Canterbury Park get quoted for what each one needs.

Transcona Siding Questions

Do you do siding work in Transcona?

Yes. We quote and install siding, soffit and fascia across Transcona, from the older streets around the original townsite to Canterbury Park and South Transcona. Send the address and we will come take a look.

What do Transcona homes usually need?

On the railway-era and postwar houses it is usually a full tear-off, sheathing repair and new cladding, because the walls have been through decades of freeze-thaw. On the newer east-side builds it is more often wind damage, a re-side for the look, or soffit and fascia work.
