Siding in Paradise
A Paradise re-side is, almost always, post-Camp-Fire rebuild work — and we treat it with the seriousness that demands. Paradise sits at the center of California's most severe fire history; the town's own rebuild standards require hardened, non-combustible construction, and that is exactly how we approach every exterior here, on rebuilds, surviving older foothill homes, and ridge acreage alike.
Cladding choice is secondary to a fully hardened envelope designed for extreme ember exposure on a constrained foothill ridge.
Whole-envelope hardening, to the town's standards and beyond
We build to (and beyond) Paradise's hardened-rebuild requirements: Class A non-combustible cladding plus aggressively hardened eaves, soffits, vents, decks, and every ground transition. In extreme terrain the detailing is the protection as much as the board.
Honest, not alarmist
Paradise owners know their exposure better than anyone; we don't lecture or fear-sell. We focus on building the most resilient exterior possible and documenting it clearly for rebuild compliance and insurance.
