Cedar, redwood, and pine siding can last a very long time. The homes still wearing original clapboard prove it. What cuts it short is nearly always moisture, from water trapped behind boards to raw end grain, paint pushed off from behind, and boards in contact with soil.
So the details are everything. Good wood siding work starts with back-priming every board on all six sides, sealing every cut end, and fastening with stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized nails. Plain steel nails react with the natural tannins in cedar and leave black streaks running down the wall.
Many pros now install wood over a rainscreen, a small gap created with furring strips or a drainage mat, so the back of each board can dry. That one detail dramatically improves paint life and reduces cupping.
On older homes, painted wood may contain lead. Contractors working on houses built before 1978 should use lead-safe practices when scraping, sanding, or removing boards.

These are the wood siding jobs Lincoln Beach callers ask about most.
Rotted Board Replacement
Rotted boards are removed at staggered seams, the moisture source is fixed, and new primed boards go in.
Cedar Clapboard and Bevel Siding
Clapboard is matched by width, exposure, and butt thickness, and installed with proper laps and stainless fasteners.
Shiplap, Tongue-and-Groove, and Board-and-Batten
Vertical and shiplap profiles need solid blocking or furring and careful attention to how water sheds at the bottom.

Scraping, Priming, and Painting
Failing paint is scraped and sanded, bare wood is primed with a stain-blocking primer, and a quality finish is applied.
Semi-Transparent and Solid Stains
Cedar can be stained to show the grain or given a solid stain for more protection, with reapplication on a schedule.
What Wood Siding Problems Usually Mean
Wood siding gives clear clues to anyone who knows them. Paint peeling down to bare wood in large sheets usually means moisture is pushing out from behind, either from inside the house or from water trapped behind the boards. Paint failing only at the bottom edges usually means boards were never back-primed or end-sealed.
Cupping, with edges curling up, comes from moisture differences between the face and back of a board. Splits at nails usually mean the wrong fastener or nails set too near the edge. Black streaks under nails mean the fasteners are reacting with tannins in the wood.
Rot shows up first at end grain, at the bottom course, under windows, and where trim meets siding. The contractor probes those areas, takes moisture readings, and looks for missing flashing, failed caulk, and overflowing gutters. From there you get a plan: replace a few boards, correct the water source, and refinish, or address a larger section.

- Rot at the bottom course and below windows

Can rotted wood siding be repaired instead of replaced?
Yes, rotten boards can typically be removed and replaced at staggered seams. Minor rot in trim can occasionally be consolidated and filled. The key is fixing the water source first.
How often does wood siding need painting or staining?
That depends on sun, the type of finish, and your climate. Solid stains and paint usually last longer than semi-transparent stains, and sunny walls need attention sooner.
Why is the paint peeling off my wood siding?
Typical culprits are moisture from behind, boards never back-primed, poor prep, or the wrong paint. A pro can identify the cause so the new finish lasts.
What nails should be used on cedar siding?
Stainless nails are ideal for cedar, with hot-dipped galvanized as the usual alternative. Plain steel reacts with cedar tannins and causes black streaks.
Can new wood siding match my old siding?
Most of the time, by matching width, reveal, thickness, and profile. Some older profiles may need custom milling. Paint helps new and old boards blend.
Is wood siding a good choice for a new installation?
It can be, if you are prepared for periodic refinishing. Installed over a rainscreen with proper priming and fasteners, wood siding performs well and offers a look other materials imitate.
