Siding keeps wind-driven rain off the walls of your house. When it splits, cups or holds water, the damage moves into the sheathing behind it. We are siding contractors based in Langley on the south end of Whidbey Island. We install new siding, re-side older houses and repair siding that has failed.
A siding installation is more than the boards you see. Behind them sit the weather resistive barrier and the flashing at every window and door. That hidden layer is what usually fails first on an island wall. Where we open one up and find rot, wood rot repair comes before the new siding goes on.

Siding repair makes sense when the damage sits in one spot. A branch cracked a few boards, or one wall lost siding in a windstorm. We match the profile and the exposure of the old siding as closely as we can. The barrier and flashing behind the patch get repaired, and the new boards are painted to blend.
Siding replacement is the answer when the failure is everywhere. Cupping, splitting and soft spots across more than one wall point that way. Paint that will not hold for a full season is another sign. Siding that has been patched for years usually costs more to keep chasing than to replace.
A free on-site look settles which one your house needs. We check the walls you asked about and the ones you did not, because water travels. If a repair will hold, that is what we recommend.
Island County design criteria list a basic wind speed of 97 mph here. Rain rides that wind for much of the year and drives sideways into south and west walls. Salt air off Saratoga Passage and Useless Bay works on fasteners and finishes at the same time. Shade is the other half of it, since big firs hold damp against a north wall.
Fiber cement siding handles that weather well and holds paint for a long time. It is the category most people know by the James Hardie name, a mix of cement and cellulose fiber. Cedar and other wood siding suits island houses, barns and shops, and takes stain or paint. Our own photos show cedar board siding on a barn job, under a dark green standing seam roof.
Vinyl siding is the low-upkeep option and never needs paint. Lap siding, board and batten and shingle siding each set a different look and shed water differently. The trim, corner boards and flashing get replaced with the siding. That is where wind-driven rain finds a way in.
Most jobs start with a look at the walls and a measure. You get a written estimate at no cost, with the material, the profile and the scope on it. Once the color is picked, we set a start date around the weather.
The old siding comes off wall by wall. We strip only what we can cover before the next rain. Anything soft in the sheathing, trim or framing gets cut out and replaced while the wall is open.
An open wall is the easiest time to handle what sits behind the siding. Window replacement and new flashing go in faster now than after the boards are back on. When the roof, gutters and trim are due too, the work runs as one exterior remodeling project. Old siding, trim and fasteners leave with us.

We replace drafty, fogged and rotted windows with new vinyl or fiberglass units. Every opening gets flashed and sealed against wind-driven rain, and rot at the sill gets repaired first.

Real reviews from real roofing and siding jobs on Google.
They installed a new metal roof on the house we purchased and were able to start quickly which meant it was nearly done by the time we moved in. We had a great experience working with Jeff who was very helpful with suggestions on some cosmetic changes we made and the entire roof and gables came out nicely. Very pleased with this company and would recommend them to anyone on Whidbey looking for roofing or siding work.
Whidbey Roof and Siding did an outstanding job. Very professional! No playing games came in with the lowest bid. We did run into a few surprises, but Jeff was very clear and transparent about what it would take to correct the issue. Very glad I had someone who could deal with the issues. As one recent visitor said the skylight looks like it was here all along and not an after thought addition. Highly recommend
