Calgary siding that transforms your home
New siding is the fastest way to change how your home looks — and in Calgary, it's also armour. Shield Exteriors installs vinyl and James Hardie fibre cement siding across Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, and Okotoks, from full replacements and hail damage restoration (we handle the insurance claim with you) to exterior insulation upgrades that cut your energy bills while the walls are open. Every install is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty.
WHAT WE DO
Our siding & exterior services
Full siding replacement
Whether your siding is faded, cracked, or you're simply ready for a new look, a full replacement transforms your home's curb appeal and protection in one project. We remove the old siding, inspect and repair the sheathing and building wrap underneath, and install your new siding with matching trim and finishing details — so the whole exterior reads as one intentional design.
Exterior insulation
upgrades
A siding replacement is the one time the outside of your walls is open — the perfect moment to add continuous exterior insulation. It wraps your home in an unbroken thermal layer, cutting drafts and energy bills and keeping the house more comfortable in Calgary's deep freezes and summer heat. Ask about it with your estimate; the add-on cost is far lower during a replacement than as a standalone project.
Hail damage siding replacement
Hail doesn't just crack vinyl — it bruises and chips fibre cement and dents aluminum, often on the entire storm-facing side of a home. If your siding took a beating, our free assessment documents everything, and we document everything for your adjuster and manage the repair from approval to final install. Many of our clients use the claim as the opportunity to upgrade their whole exterior's look. Learn how the process works on our insurance claims page.
Stucco repair
Cracked, chipped, or damaged stucco doesn't just look tired — it lets moisture in behind the wall, where the real damage happens. We repair stucco on homes throughout Calgary, from hairline cracks and impact damage to patching around windows, doors, and vents, working with both traditional cement and acrylic finishes and matching the existing colour and texture so repairs blend in. Hail damage? We can document it and repair your stucco as part of the same insurance claim as your roof and siding.

Vinyl siding
$
The most popular and budget-friendly option: no painting, wide colour and profile ranges, and easy to live with. The one bit of upkeep worth knowing: like all vinyl, it naturally oxidizes over time — a light, chalky film on the surface — and an occasional pressure wash removes it and keeps the colour looking fresh. Modern vinyl is significantly tougher than the products of twenty years ago, and if hail does get it, it's economical to replace. We install trusted lines from Royal, Gentek, Mitten, and Kaycan.
One thing most homeowners don't know: vinyl pricing varies by brand and colour. Lighter colours sit at the value end, darker shades are premium (they're made with tougher, fade-resistant formulations to handle the sun), and two-toned styles top the range. We carry samples of every colour we install, so you can hold them against your home in real light — not guess from a screen — before you decide.

The premium choice: engineered cement-board siding that resists hail, fire, moisture, and Alberta's freeze-thaw cycles far better than vinyl, with the crisp look of painted wood. It's heavier and takes specialized installation — which is exactly why proper crews matter. If you're planning to stay in your home long-term, Hardie is the buy-once option.
Every replacement includes colour and style selection — we'll bring samples so you can see them against your house in real light.
