Natural wood and cedar siding for craftsman, cabin and traditional homes, installed with proper back-priming, clearances and finishes.
Natural wood siding has a warmth and texture that manufactured materials work hard to copy. Cedar, in particular, is prized for its look and its natural resistance to decay. Wood also asks for care: sealing, painting and watching for moisture. Owners in Nashville choose wood siding for historic, craftsman and rustic homes and for new homes that want a natural look.
We start with a Free Estimate and talk about species, grades and profiles, finish options and the care wood will need. We remove old siding, repair walls, install a weather barrier and flashing and hang siding with stainless or coated fasteners, correct spacing and back-priming where needed. We keep wood off the ground and away from water sources, seal cut ends and apply stain or paint as agreed. We explain maintenance in simple terms. Wood siding is a long-term relationship, and we want you to be comfortable with it. We provide a simple maintenance plan covering washing, inspection and refinishing, and we suggest what to watch for around windows, corners and the base of walls. If you decide the upkeep is more than you want, we are glad to show wood-look alternatives that need less care.
