🏡 SW Portland Exterior Transformation

This 1920s SW Portland home still had its original cedar siding and an aging roof that was ready for replacement.

The goal was to update the exterior while keeping the character of the home intact — not make it look generic or over-modernized.

Our team worked with the homeowner to select a period-specific siding profile using smooth HardiePlank lap siding with a 5" reveal, designed to emulate the look of the original cedar siding while adding the long-term durability of fiber cement.

🔨 Project highlights:

✔ Smooth HardiePlank lap siding
✔ 5" reveal to match the original cedar profile
✔ Full GAF Timberline HDZ roofing system
✔ Full roof tear-off
✔ All new flashing components
✔ Updated intake and exhaust ventilation
✔ Benjamin Moore Regal Select premium paint
✔ Color consultation with our Benjamin Moore color consultant
✔ Photo-realistic renderings before work began

The finished result is a clean, timeless exterior that respects the home’s 1920s architecture while improving protection, performance, and curb appeal for Portland weather.

This is the type of exterior remodel we love — thoughtful design, proper prep, durable materials, and details that feel right for the home.

Planning an exterior renovation for your SW Portland home?

This featured Lifetime Remodeling Systems project included a full EIFS stucco replacement, new HardiePlank siding, a CertainTeed Presidential roof, stained cedar accents, and Trex composite decking.

The home’s original EIFS siding had gone unmaintained for years, creating the need for dry rot repairs, updated flashing, and a complete building envelope upgrade. Our team removed the failing exterior materials, repaired damaged areas, installed a fully drainable HydroGap housewrap system, and rebuilt the exterior with premium, long-lasting materials designed for Portland’s wet climate.

The result is a NW contemporary exterior with improved curb appeal, long-term protection, and materials selected to perform in the Pacific Northwest.

As a trusted Portland siding contractor and exterior remodeling company, Lifetime Remodeling Systems has been helping Portland homeowners replace siding, roofing, windows, and decking for over 25 years.
