Why cladding

Why Add Metal Cladding to Your Building

Metal cladding is not only for new construction. Property owners choose it for older buildings and homes for a few clear reasons.

Low maintenance

Metal cladding does not need repainting every few years the way wood and some siding materials do.

Modern look

Clean panel lines give a building a current, updated exterior.

Durability

A properly installed metal panel system holds up to wind, rain, and UV exposure for decades.

Building rejuvenation

A straightforward way to modernize the look of an older commercial or strata building without a full exterior rebuild.

Accent or full exterior

Metal cladding can cover an entire building or be used on accent sections, entryways, or feature walls.

Panel profiles

Metal Cladding Panel Styles

Wall cladding comes in several panel profiles, each suited to a different look and application.

Standing Seam Wall Panels

Vertical panels with raised, interlocking seams and concealed fasteners. Standing seam gives walls the same clean architectural lines it gives roofs, and it is a popular choice for a modern residential or commercial exterior.

Corrugated Panels

A wave-profile panel commonly used on commercial, industrial, and agricultural buildings. Corrugated panels are durable, economical, and install quickly over larger wall areas.

Flush & Board-Style Panels

Smaller-profile flush panels give a smooth, tighter finish, often used for detailed sections, accent walls, or as a metal alternative to traditional wood siding.

Wall cladding panels are available in several metals and finishes, including steel, aluminum, zinc, and Galvalume, in a range of factory-applied paint finishes. The right material depends on your building, your budget, and the look you want. We help you choose the material and finish that fits your project during your free estimate.

Who we work with

Where Metal Cladding Fits

Residential

Homeowners are increasingly using metal cladding for full exteriors, laneway homes, and accent sections on entryways or feature walls. It gives a home a modern look and removes the repainting cycle that wood and some siding materials require.

Commercial & Industrial

For commercial, strata, and industrial buildings, metal cladding is a straightforward way to modernize an aging exterior, reduce long-term maintenance costs, and give tenants and customers a clean, current building face. We also install cladding on agricultural and industrial buildings where a durable, low-maintenance exterior matters more than architectural finish.

Roofs and walls

Pair Your Roof with Matching Metal Cladding

Most roofing companies stop at the roof. We do not. If you are already planning a new metal roof, pairing it with matching metal wall cladding gives your building one consistent look and one continuous envelope, installed by the same crew to the same standard.

Investment

What Metal Cladding Costs in Surrey

Metal cladding in Surrey, BC generally costs $12 to $42 per square foot installed, depending on the panel style, material, and how complex the building is. Here’s a general guide by panel type:

  • Corrugated metal panels: $14 – $20 per sq. ft.
  • Standing seam cladding: $18 – $28 per sq. ft.
  • Aluminum composite panels (ACM): $22 – $35 per sq. ft.
  • Insulated metal panels (IMPs): $28 – $42 per sq. ft.

What pushes the price up: exotic metals like zinc or copper instead of standard steel or aluminum, multi-story installations that need scaffolding and extra safety equipment, and design complexity like corners, window cutouts, soffits, and custom trim. What keeps it down: standard steel or aluminum panels, a simpler single-story wall area, and a building that doesn’t need old siding removed or underlying wall repairs first.

These are general market ranges, not a quote — every building is different. After a free on-site visit, we’ll give you the final quote in writing.
