Siding in Santa Rosa
Santa Rosa's re-side conversation is shaped by recent history more than almost anywhere we work. The 2017 Tubbs Fire devastated Fountaingrove, Coffey Park, and surrounding neighborhoods, and rebuilding and hardening continue years later. For Santa Rosa homeowners — rebuilding, hardening, or simply replacing aging siding — wildfire performance is a present, concrete consideration.
What makes Santa Rosa distinct from foothill fire towns is that the exterior must satisfy two demands at once: hillside and valley-edge fire exposure, and meaningful North Bay seasonal moisture. A correct Santa Rosa re-side is both non-combustible and rigorously drained.
Rebuild standard vs. hardening older stock
Post-fire Santa Rosa rebuilds are frequently already non-combustible. The biggest gains now are on surviving and older hillside and tract homes still wearing wood, T1-11, or hardboard — where re-cladding delivers both the hardening and the moisture-durability upgrade in one project.
Fire and moisture, designed together
We don't trade one risk against the other. Santa Rosa assemblies pair Class A non-combustible cladding with a rigorously detailed, drying-capable drainage plane — the hillside fire strategy and the North Bay moisture strategy resolved in a single envelope.
