About us
About Lapline Siding & Exteriors
21Years of experience
Lapline Siding & Exteriors started out fixing siding other crews had nailed too tight, which is why the wall behind the cladding gets as much attention as the cladding itself. The house wrap goes on right, every window gets flashed with tape and a sill pan, rotten sheathing and fascia get replaced instead of covered, and vinyl is hung loose so it can move in the heat. Whether it is Hardie, vinyl or board and batten, the details follow the manufacturer's book, and the labour warranty is in writing on the contract.
What we do
Siding services in Milton
Vinyl, James Hardie, board and batten, aluminum soffit and fascia, and stucco repairs. Lapline Siding & Exteriors will strip it to the sheathing, wrap and flash it properly, and put the workmanship warranty in writing.
Vinyl siding replacement
Old cladding stripped to the sheathing, house wrap and flashing done properly, then premium vinyl from Canadian makers like Mitten, Kaycan or Gentek in a colour that will not chalk in five years. Panels are hung loose on the nail so they can move with our temperature swings instead of buckling in July.
James Hardie fibre-cement siding
HardiePlank and HardiePanel with ColorPlus finish, cut with dust collection and installed to Hardie's clearance and flashing details so the 30-year warranty actually holds. It does not burn, warp or feed woodpeckers, and it handles freeze-thaw better than anything else at the price.
Aluminum soffit & fascia
Vented aluminum soffit and fascia capping bent on site on a brake, with enough open vent area for the attic to actually breathe. Rotten fascia boards get replaced before the capping goes on, not wrapped and hidden for the next owner to find.
Board and batten
Vertical board and batten in vinyl, HardiePanel or engineered wood like LP SmartSide, laid out so the battens land evenly at corners and windows rather than wherever the sheet happened to end. Good on a whole house, or on a gable and porch to break up a long wall of lap siding.
Stucco patching & repair
Cracks, woodpecker holes and impact damage on acrylic or cement stucco cut back, meshed and floated to match the existing texture and colour as closely as the weathering allows. We tell you up front when a patch will show and when recoating the whole elevation is the honest answer.
House wrap, flashing & exterior insulation
With the old cladding off we put on a proper sheathing membrane, flash every window and door with tape and sill pans the way the Ontario Building Code expects, and can add rigid foam board that makes a real difference to the heating bill. It is the part you never see and the part that decides whether the wall stays dry.
Storm, hail & impact repairs
Wind-lifted panels, hail-cracked vinyl and pieces knocked off by a ladder or a puck matched to what is on the house wherever the profile is still made. Photographed and written up so an insurance claim goes through without a fight.
Window capping, trim & accents
Aluminum capping on window and door frames, J-channel and corner posts, shutters, gable vents and stone-look accents finished so water sheds out and not in behind the wall. The small details are where most siding leaks start, so they get the most attention.

Questions
Frequently asked
If your question isn't here, call us — we would rather explain it than have you guess.
Vinyl costs roughly half as much installed, never needs paint, and good Canadian vinyl lasts twenty-five to thirty years if it is hung correctly. Fibre-cement costs more and takes longer to put up, but it does not melt near a barbecue, dent from hail or fade the way dark vinyl does, and it holds a crisper look on a house with a lot of trim. We quote both when it is a close call and let you compare, but on a budget-driven job we will say vinyl and mean it.
Not for a like-for-like recladding in most Ontario municipalities, since it counts as maintenance. You will need one if the job changes window or door openings, alters structure, or if the house sits in a heritage conservation district. Townhouse and condo boards often have their own approvals and colour rules. We check before quoting so it does not stall the job.
Vinyl over old wood or hardboard can be done and sometimes is, but we recommend against it. Stripping to the sheathing is the only way to see rot, install a proper weather barrier and flash the windows, and it keeps the wall flat so the new siding does not telegraph every wave underneath. Fibre-cement cannot go over vinyl at all under the manufacturer's rules.
Almost always it was nailed too tight. Vinyl grows and shrinks more than a centimetre over a long run between January and July, and if the nails pin it, it has nowhere to go but out. The other culprit is heat: dark colours on a south wall, or sunlight bounced off a neighbour's low-E windows, which can literally melt a panel. We rehang loose where we can and replace what has distorted.
Vinyl goes on spring through fall without any fuss. It gets brittle in the cold and cracks when cut or nailed, so we slow down or wait once it is well below freezing. Fibre-cement and aluminum can go on most of the year with care. Stucco patching needs a few days above about five degrees to cure, so it is a warm-season job.
A typical two-storey house takes one to two weeks depending on weather and how much rot turns up. Price is driven by wall area, the number of windows and doors to trim, height and access, the material you pick, and how much sheathing and fascia turns out to be soft. We quote a fixed price with a stated allowance for rotten wood, so a surprise behind the old siding does not become a surprise on the invoice.
