Our projects focus on more than the visible siding. We address sheathing condition, weather-resistant barriers, window and door flashing, trim integration, clearances, and QUAD MAX sealing so the exterior works as one coordinated wall system.
KV Construction LLC is an owner-operated Seattle siding replacement contractor specializing in full siding replacement, James Hardie fiber cement siding, cedar siding, exterior moisture damage repair, window replacement, and lead-safe exterior work. Founded in 2011 and led directly by Vasily Kramarenko, the company serves Seattle homeowners, property managers, real estate investors, rental property owners, and multifamily property owners who need durable siding systems built for Pacific Northwest rain, wind, and moisture exposure.
As a trusted siding contractor and James Hardie Preferred Remodeler, we specialize in fiber cement and cedar siding solutions engineered for Seattle’s persistent moisture climate. Our skilled team understands that quality workmanship behind the siding—house wrap, water-resistive barriers, and precision flashing—determines whether your exterior lasts 15 years or 50.
When you contact our experienced Seattle siding contractors, you can expect clear communication, quality workmanship, and dependable service from start to finish.
Seattle siding problems rarely begin with the visible board alone. Water often enters or becomes trapped around window flashing, horizontal trim, penetrations, damaged sheathing, or poorly integrated weather barriers.
That is why KV Construction approaches siding replacement as a wall-system project. Before new siding covers the exterior, the condition behind it matters: sheathing, dry rot, WRB continuity, window and door flashing, trim transitions, mounting blocks, clearances, and sealant details all affect long-term performance.
Moisture Protection
Proper installation with code-compliant water-resistive barriers and integrated flashing prevents water intrusion and rot. Seattle building code (SRC R703) requires continuous WRB with specific lap requirements—details many contractors overlook.
Energy Efficiency
Quality siding with proper insulation and air sealing reduces heating costs during Pacific Northwest winters. Many homeowners combine siding replacement with thermal upgrades to meet current energy codes.
Curb Appeal
Professional installation enhances property value and neighborhood aesthetics. Fiber cement siding projects often recover up to 80% of costs at resale in Seattle’s competitive housing market.
Long-term Performance
Expert craftsmanship with factory-trained installation designed to support the long-term performance from properly installed fiber cement siding against Seattle weather. Cut edges properly primed, flashing correctly integrated, and manufacturer specifications followed precisely.
