General contractor in Blaine, Washington
Salt air, wind off the strait, and homes that are often empty half the year.
Blaine
The weather envelope is everything here.
Building near the water in Blaine is not the same as building four miles inland, and pretending otherwise is how homes end up needing the same repair twice.
Salt-laden air and constant wind are hard on everything on the outside of a house. Siding, trim, fasteners, window seals, deck framing, roof flashing and exterior hardware all age faster out here — especially on exposed properties around Semiahmoo, Birch Point and Drayton Harbor.
So a lot of our Blaine work is envelope work: siding replacement, proper flashing details, windows that will actually survive, corrosion-resistant fasteners, and rebuilding decks that were framed without any allowance for this climate.
We also do a good amount of work for owners who are not here full time, including Canadian owners a few minutes over the border. That means clear photo updates and a contractor who can be trusted with a key.
