Overview
Why homeowners choose IronWrap for siding & cladding
Vinyl cracks. Wood rots. Stucco hairline-cracks every winter. Metal siding does none of those things. Our cladding systems are pre-finished steel and aluminum panels in standing seam, board-and-batten, horizontal lap, and corrugated profiles — each backed by long-term paint and substrate warranties.
Metal siding's biggest advantage in Alberta is what it doesn't do: it doesn't absorb water, doesn't host mold (a chronic problem in older absorbent claddings — Health Canada's dampness-and-mould guidance lays out the health risk), doesn't attract carpenter ants, and doesn't fade in a generation of UV exposure. The colour you pick today is the colour your house will still be in 30 years.
We coordinate siding and roofing as a system — pairing metal roofing, soffit and fascia, seamless gutters, and custom-bent trim so the whole exterior reads as one designed envelope rather than a patchwork of trades.
Profile is where metal siding gets interesting, because the same material can read completely differently depending on how it's formed. Board-and-batten — tall vertical panels with raised battens between them — is the defining look of the modern farmhouse and is our most-requested profile for feature walls, gable peaks, and full-house wraps across Edmonton. Horizontal lap gives you the familiar traditional siding line without the cracking and fading of vinyl. Corrugated and ribbed profiles bring an architectural, contemporary edge (and double as an economical corrugated roof on the same building), while standing-seam wall panels deliver the sleekest, most premium finish. Most homes we clad use two profiles together — a board-and-batten field with a corrugated or standing-seam accent — for depth that flat vinyl simply can't produce.
One profile worth calling out is wood-grain steel: pre-finished panels printed and textured to look like natural cedar or timber, with none of the rot, insect, fire, or repainting problems real wood brings to Alberta's climate. It's become the go-to for homeowners who want the warmth of a wood-clad modern home — soffits, accent walls, and board-and-batten in a warm timber tone — that still carries a 30-year finish warranty and never needs staining. If you're deciding between metal and the alternatives, our metal siding vs vinyl siding in Alberta comparison lays out how each holds up through our freeze-thaw winters, and why metal is the one cladding that doesn't get brittle in a cold snap.
