Lake Stevens Siding Remodel Case Study
This Lake Stevens home received a full exterior transformation using CedarMill HardiePlank lap siding paired with HardieShingle accents on the front gable for added texture and architectural depth. The homeowners wanted a durable, Northwest-ready exterior that could stand up to Lake Stevens’ moisture, seasonal rain, and year-round weather shifts. With certified waterproofing and manufacturer-approved installation practices, KV Construction delivered a clean, long-lasting siding upgrade that enhances both curb appeal and structural protection.
“I had a very pleasant experience with KV Construction. From the start they have made the experience very smooth, answered all of my questions and gave very good recommendations. They have installed new siding on the new construction and finished the job within given time parameters. The quality of the job was splendid! KV Construction answered all of my questions and have worked with me to ensure everything is perfect. I highly recommend this company.”

Why Proper Siding Installation Matters in the Pacific Northwest
Homes throughout the Pacific Northwest experience year-round moisture, seasonal rain, and extended periods of damp weather. Because of this, correct siding installation and certified waterproofing are essential for preventing rot, swelling, water intrusion, and long-term structural damage. Using fiber cement materials and a full Hardie-approved weather barrier system ensures long-lasting performance, low maintenance, and reliable protection over decades.
