Siding Installation Sherwood Forest, WA
Sherwood Forest's tree canopy makes it one of Edmonds' more private neighborhoods — and one of the toughest on siding. Between mid-century ramblers near Forest Glen and newer custom builds further in, Rainwood Construction installs siding built to hold up under mature trees and close to Deer Creek's flood-prone low points.

Siding Installation Service Overview
Sherwood Forest is one of the more wooded pockets of Edmonds, and that canopy changes what a siding installation needs to hold up against. Homes built from the 1950s through the 80s around Forest Glen and Hickman Park often still carry their original siding, while newer contemporary builds further into the neighborhood use fiber cement or engineered wood as standard. Either way, heavy tree cover means walls stay damp longer between rains, and low-lying stretches near Deer Creek and 100th Ave see more standing moisture at grade. We install with drainage and shade in mind — correct overlap, a weather barrier that drains properly, and material suited to how much sun a given wall actually gets.
Siding Installation Cost and Investment
Cost depends on material, square footage, and what’s under the existing siding once it’s off. Older Sherwood Forest ramblers sometimes reveal more prep work than a newer build closer to Westgate. Every estimate is written after an on-site walkthrough, itemized by material, labor, and any additional scope the tear-off uncovers — including sheathing repair if a shaded wall has been holding moisture for years.
OUR SIDING INSTALLATION SERVICES
Hanging panels is maybe 40% of the actual job. The rest is everything nobody wants to talk about at the bid stage. Here's the full scope of our siding installation service.
Siding Installation & Replacement
Full tear-off and new installation to manufacturer spec — correct overlap, fastener pattern, and clearances, whether it's a farmhouse near the river or a newer home in Smokey Point.
Siding Repair
Not every damaged section needs full replacement. We repair what's salvageable and match material and color so it doesn't stand out.
SeWeather Barrier & Insulation
On shaded, low-lying lots near the Stillaguamish, the weather barrier does more work than the siding itself. We install a continuous barrier with correct laps and flashing at every penetration.
Trim, Fascia & Soffit
Trim and soffit take the brunt of ground-level moisture on river-valley homes. We replace and seal these details on every installation, not as an afterthought.
Maintenance & Re-Caulking
Caulk fails well before the siding does, especially on shaded walls that stay damp longer. Re-caulking on a normal cycle keeps water out and extends the life of the install.

What Sherwood Forest Homeowners Should Know Before New Siding
Sherwood Forest’s mix of decades — 1950s ramblers near Forest Glen, split-levels from the 60s and 70s, contemporary custom builds from the 90s on — means there’s no single standard siding type in the neighborhood. Heavy tree cover is the main factor to plan around: walls under mature trees stay damp longer and hold moss more than open lots nearby in Westgate or Firdale. Homes closer to Deer Creek and the low points along 100th Ave and Edmonds Way should also have drainage checked before new siding goes up, since standing moisture at grade shortens the life of any material.
- Shaded, tree-covered walls need moisture-resistant material and proper drainage behind it
- Older ramblers may hide more sheathing damage than the surface shows
- Low-lying areas near Deer Creek benefit from a grading check before install
- Mature trees on the lot may need trimming back for install access and long-term wall drying

Great people. Showed up early and stayed late to get the job done. Work was excellent. Price was the best i found after four quotes. Would definitely use this company again.
We hired Rainwood Construction LLC to replace our French doors, and the result was outstanding. We knew going in this was more involved than a standard swap — we switched from inward to outward swinging doors, requiring extra attention to framing, flashing, and weatherproofing to keep everything sealed against water intrusion.Anatoliy was our point of contact and led the project from before to after, making sure the swing change and weatherproofing were planned and executed correctly. Igor and Vitaly handled the on-site installation and did excellent, high-quality work. The whole team was on time, professional, and delivered top-notch results. Can’t recommend them highly enough. 5 stars!
Every member of this crew I've had the pleasure of coming in contact with has been professional, excellent in their skillset, and fast. Pricing was reasonable for the excellent job they did.Last year we hired Rainwood to do plumbing and painting for a job. Both crews did such a great job, were thorough, and the level of detail was fantastic!We liked them so much we recently hired them for a quick job (installing ceiling fans). We messaged on a Wednesday and the job was done by Friday.Will absolutely hire Rainwood again and again for every job we do for our home.
Working with Rainwood Constructions on our house remodel was an excellent experience from start to finish. Their contractors were highly professional, skilled, and attentive to detail, and the quality of their work exceeded our expectations. The team communicated clearly throughout the project and ensured everything was completed on time without compromising quality. We’re extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a home remodel.
We had a very good experience with Rainwood Construction LLC and Toli during my brother’s home construction project in Shoreline. The team was professional, communicative, and paid close attention to detail throughout the process. We were especially happy with the quality of the fittings and finishing work, which turned out really well. The project was handled smoothly, and the overall workmanship met our expectations. Would definitely recommend them to others looking for reliable construction services.
We had an excellent experience with them on our sunroom project. The quality of the work was outstanding, they were easy to work with, and they clearly explained each step, the schedule, and key decisions (with various options to help us understand cost) along the way. Communication was solid from start to finish, and the final result looks great. Highly recommend, they are my new go to recommendation when friends ask.

FAQ
Yes — we install siding throughout Sherwood Forest and the surrounding Edmonds neighborhoods, including Westgate, Firdale, and Pine Park.
Yes. Shaded walls under mature trees stay damp longer, which is where fiber cement usually holds up better than vinyl. We look at how much direct sun each wall actually gets before recommending material.
It can. Low-lying stretches near Deer Creek and 100th Ave see more standing moisture at grade, so we check drainage and grading around the foundation before installing new siding, not after.
Both. We install siding on original-era ramblers and split-levels as well as newer contemporary builds further into Sherwood Forest, matching material to the home and the lot.
