Exterior Wall Systems
Cladding Systems for Residential and Architectural Exteriors
ARKSTRUX supplies and installs fiber cement, metal, aluminum and selected composite cladding systems. Each project is reviewed around the wall assembly, openings, corners, drainage path and connections to roofing and other exterior materials.

The Exterior Wall Assembly
Cladding Is One Layer of a Coordinated Wall
Exterior cladding creates the visible finish and helps manage exposure to rain, wind and sunlight. Its performance also depends on the layers behind it, the drainage strategy, fasteners, openings, flashings and transitions.
ARKSTRUX reviews the finish material together with the project conditions so that the proposed scope clearly identifies what is included and how the cladding connects to adjacent work.

Cladding Systems
Fiber Cement Cladding
Lap siding, panels and board-and-batten profiles
Fiber cement provides a familiar siding or panel appearance with multiple profiles, textures and factory-finished colour options. Installation details follow the selected manufacturer's requirements.
View Fiber Cement CladdingMetal & Aluminum Cladding
Formed profiles and architectural metal finishes
Steel and aluminum cladding can create vertical, horizontal or custom-profile facade lines for homes, commercial buildings and architectural feature areas.
View Metal & Aluminum CladdingComposite & Engineered Cladding
Selected proprietary boards, panels and siding systems
Composite and engineered cladding products offer varied textures, profiles and attachment methods. Product suitability and installation requirements are confirmed for the selected system.

Details That Shape a Complete Cladding Scope
- Review of existing wall conditions and required removals
- Water-resistive barrier and drainage-plane scope where included
- Strapping, furring or proprietary subframing
- Insulation options where included in the project
- Starter profiles, corners, trims and terminations
- Window, door and garage-opening transitions
- Soffit, fascia, roofline and foundation transitions
- Cladding panels, boards or profiles
- Final sealants and closures where required by the selected assembly
Compare the Priorities
Choose the System Around the Project
The right cladding system depends on the appearance, wall condition, maintenance expectations, fire and assembly requirements, available profiles, budget and the details around openings and transitions. We compare these priorities before confirming the scope.
Appearance
Lap siding, board-and-batten, clean panels, ribbed profiles or wood-look finishes.
Wall Assembly
Substrate, drainage, ventilation, insulation and attachment conditions.
Detail Complexity
Corners, openings, parapets, canopies and material changes.
Project Type
Renovation, addition, new construction, residential or commercial.
How the Project Moves Forward
A Clear Process From Initial Review to Final Details
Share the Project Information
Send the property address, photos, drawings, measurements or a short description of the required work.
Project Review
We review the building, existing conditions, selected materials and the connections to adjacent systems.
Scope and Options
We confirm the proposed system, project-specific details, exclusions and any information still required.
Proposal and Scheduling
Once the scope is clear, we prepare the proposal and coordinate material lead times and scheduling.
Installation and Final Review
The work is completed according to the confirmed scope, followed by a final review and site cleanup.
Why ARKSTRUX
One Contractor for the Complete Exterior Scope
ARKSTRUX coordinates materials, custom details and installation within one project scope. This gives homeowners, contractors and design professionals one point of contact for the exterior work from initial review to on-site execution.
Multiple Exterior Systems
Roofing, cladding, rainwater components and custom metal details can be reviewed together where project conditions overlap.
Custom Details for Real Building Conditions
Corners, openings, roof-to-wall transitions, parapets, penetrations and perimeter details are coordinated for the specific project.
Residential, Commercial and Architectural Work
The scope can be adapted to homes, additions, commercial buildings, custom residences and design-led projects.
Supply and Installation Through One Contractor
Product selection, accessories, fabrication requirements and installation are coordinated within one proposal.
Project-Specific Pricing
What Affects Cladding Cost?
Cladding is priced after the wall area, selected material, existing conditions and finishing details are reviewed. Final cost depends on the complete assembly rather than the finish material alone.
Factors:
- Material, profile, finish and colour
- Removal and substrate preparation
- Wall height, access and staging
- Insulation, furring, membranes and subframing
- Window and door count
- Corners, returns, trims and material transitions
- Custom flashings and metal details
- Project sequencing and site conditions
Final pricing is confirmed in a written proposal. HST is additional.
