Auburn’s climate puts exterior siding to the test. With 170 rainy days a year and nearly 79% average humidity, moisture management isn’t optional — it’s structural. Auburn’s Old Town Design Review District adds its own layer of requirements for historic buildings.
New Standard stocks high-performance cladding lines chosen for South King County conditions. From our Seattle warehouses, we coordinate next-day delivery throughout Auburn and South King County — with no local yard overhead baked into your material costs.
One delayed delivery or an inaccurate material order can throw an entire siding crew off schedule.
Auburn siding projects have their own requirements — 170 rainy days a year, Old Town Design Review rules, vertical board and batten layouts that change waste factors. Here’s how we support them:
Old Town-compliant siding in stockFiber cement (James Hardie), Western Red Cedar, and metal panels — the three material families that pass Old Town Design Review. Our team knows the code: vertical board and batten is permitted; imitation wood, corrugated fiberglass, and rough-sawn options are not. We stock only what passes.
Next-day delivery to your Auburn job siteOrder by early afternoon. Your siding materials arrive the next business day — whether your crew is working in Downtown Auburn, Lea Hill, East Hill, or Lake Tapps. Our fleet runs daily to South King County.
Free siding material takeoffsSend us your architectural plans. Our estimating team prepares a complete siding takeoff — panels, trim, system accessories, house wrap, and flashing — usually within 1–2 business days. Vertical board and batten layouts for Old Town are calculated for the actual pattern, not a default.
Competitive pricing with total transparencyFair contractor pricing. The quote you receive is what you pay — no surprise charges for delivery, custom processing, or accessories.
Complete siding packagesOne order, one delivery: siding products, matching trim, corner pieces, house wrap, flashing, fasteners, and sealants. For Auburn's Old Town historic district, custom trim profiles are fabricated in-house. Everything your crew needs to start and finish the job without a second trip.
Multilingual TeamYour crew communicates in English, Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian, Korean, and Moldovan. Material specs, installation details, and logistics tracking — never lost in translation.

Siding supply in Auburn requires more than stocking boards — it demands understanding local building science. Here’s how our inventory solves the most critical challenges for South King County projects:
With 170 rainy days a year and nearly 79% average humidity, Auburn’s climate keeps walls wet for extended periods. We supply high-stability fiber cement and architectural metal siding that retain structural shape and won’t warp during temperature swings.
We stock heavy-duty building wraps, continuous rainscreens, and custom flashing components to protect cladding joints from wind-driven rain and prevent hidden structural rot.
We distribute moisture-resistant materials and engineered ventilation accessories that optimize wall cavity airflow — vital in wooded neighborhoods like Lake Morton-Berrydale and Green Valley.
We supply wind-load rated metal siding profiles and heavy-duty structural fasteners built to lock joint integrity during South King County storms.
We stock genuine James Hardie products with HZ5 substrate technology — preventing splitting, fracturing, and fastener push-out during winter cold snaps.
We stock James Hardie ColorPlus Technology products with baked-on finishes that resist summer sun and premature fading.
