The wrap matters more than the brand
Constant rain means flashing, housewrap and the gap behind the siding decide whether the wall stays dry. We detail those layers before we talk about color.
MERCER ISLAND · SIDING
Siding in Mercer Island, WA
James Hardie, cedar, metal and vinyl — with the weather barrier treated as the real job. For Mercer Island — Island-wide, including waterfront properties — Island elevations are watched. Lap, metal panel and the soffit color need to read as one drawing, and the moisture barrier under them needs to be real.
Island elevations are watched. Lap, metal panel and the soffit color need to read as one drawing, and the moisture barrier under them needs to be real.
What we include
- Tear-off when the old siding or the sheathing is wet
- Housewrap, flashing and a rainscreen where the assembly needs to dry
- James Hardie, cedar, metal panel or vinyl, specified for the house
- Window, door and roof-to-wall transitions detailed, not caulked over
- A free look at the roof above, because that is where many siding leaks start
Local notes
HOAs approve the sample
Bellevue, Mercer Island, Kirkland and Sammamish neighborhoods often require color and material sign-off. We submit the real product, not a similar swatch.

Questions
Before you call
Do you work in Island-wide, including waterfront properties?
Yes. Design-sensitive streets, wind off the lake, and HOAs that read material samples closely. If you are nearby in Redmond, Issaquah or Newcastle, ask — those addresses are in the same service area.
How long does siding take?
Most single-family homes take 3–7 days once materials are on site. A full tear-off with sheathing repair on a larger house runs longer. The estimate names which one you are.
