Cedar Bevel & Clapboard Siding

Western red cedar bevel siding in custom-milled widths from 4" to 12". Each board is back-primed before installation, nailed with hot-dipped galvanized ring-shank nails at the correct position relative to the top edge of the course below, and left with 1/8" expansion space at all butt joints.

Cedar Shingle & Shake Siding

Hand-split or sawn cedar shingles on wall surfaces require a different nailing pattern and exposure depth than horizontal board siding. We apply self-adhesive water-resistive membrane at every course break for high-moisture Nashville, TN exposures.

Engineered Wood Siding (LP SmartSide & Similar)

Engineered wood strand composite panels offer wood's appearance with significantly better dimensional stability and moisture resistance. Field cuts require sealing with the manufacturer's specified caulk or primer — we treat them the same as real wood end-grain.

Wood Siding Refinishing & Preservation

Existing wood siding that is structurally sound but failing in finish can often be saved with proper power washing, sanding, end-grain sealing, and a high-quality exterior finish system — at a fraction of replacement cost.

Historic & Custom Profile Matching

We work with custom millwork suppliers to match discontinued or historic clapboard profiles on restoration projects — critical for homes in Nashville, TN historic districts where replacement cladding must match the original material identically.

Our Process

From First Call to Finished Project

A clear, predictable process reduces stress and produces better results. Here's exactly what happens when you call our Nashville, TN Wood Siding team.

Species & Finish Consultation

We discuss your aesthetic goals, review moisture exposure on each wall elevation, and recommend the right species and finish system for your specific Nashville, TN microclimate and sun exposure.

Moisture Content Check & Acclimation

Delivered lumber is checked with a pin-type moisture meter before installation. Material is stacked with stickers for airflow and acclimated on-site before being cut and installed — critical for dimensional stability.

Back-Priming, Installation & Fastening

All back faces and field cuts are primed before panels go on the wall. Installation proceeds with correct nailing position, expansion spacing, and stagger pattern to manage wood movement and drainage.

Finish Coat & Final Inspection

Two finish coats of a quality exterior system (primer plus topcoat or two topcoats over field-applied primer) are applied after installation. End-grain joints are caulked with high-movement paintable sealant.

Customer Reviews

Forge Siding Wood Siding — Verified Nashville, TN Customer Feedback

★★★★★

Every single piece was back-primed before it went on the wall — the installer showed me the process and explained why it matters for paint longevity. Four years later the paint looks as good as the day it was applied.

★★★★★

The custom profile matching was impressive — the new material is indistinguishable from the original sections we retained. Exactly what a historic restoration project requires.

D. & M. Ashworth

Nashville Historic District

★★★★★

Cedar board-and-batten on a new custom home build in Nashville, TN. The blocking installation behind every vertical batten seam was done correctly — solid nailing surface all the way up. The finished result is exactly what we envisioned for the house.

L. Bergqvist

★★★★★

The diagnosis was correct and the fix was permanent. No other contractor we consulted identified the back-priming issue as the root cause.

FAQ

Answers to Your Wood Siding Questions in Nashville, TN

Western red cedar is the standard choice for Nashville, TN because of its natural preservative oils, dimensional stability relative to other domestic species, and paint adhesion characteristics. Redwood offers similar properties at a higher price point. Engineered wood strand composites (LP SmartSide) outperform both for moisture resistance at the cost of real wood character.

The repainting interval is the main consideration. If low-maintenance is a priority, we recommend fiber cement with factory-applied finish. If the look of real wood is non-negotiable for your Nashville, TN home, we design the installation to extend the maintenance interval as long as possible: back-priming, end-grain sealing, and correct exposure to allow drainage.

Wood siding buckles for three primary reasons: installed too tight (no expansion space at butt joints), installed at too-high moisture content (wood shrinks on drying and the constraint causes compression buckling), or back side not primed (differential expansion between the painted face and the raw back creates curvature). We address all three as standard practice on every wood siding project.

Historic matching is one of our specialty applications. We've matched unusual profiles on registered historic properties in Nashville, TN and know how to work within preservation office approval requirements. If you're in a historic district, start that conversation with us early — profile approval can take time.

Real wood's service life ceiling exceeds any composite product when it's properly maintained. The failure mode for neglected wood siding is rot at exposed end-grain and paint failure on high-UV elevations. Both are preventable with proper installation and regular maintenance.

New construction wood siding projects are a significant part of our Nashville, TN work. We coordinate staging, bring the moisture meter to check MC at delivery, acclimate on-site, and integrate with window and trim subcontractors to sequence penetrations correctly before siding begins.

Named for Francis Nash, a general of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, the city was founded in 1779. The city grew quickly due to its strategic location as a port on the Cumberland River and, in the 19th century, a railroad center. Nashville as part of Tennessee seceded during the American Civil War; in 1862 it was the first state capital in the Confederacy to be taken by Union forces. After the war, the city reclaimed its stature and developed a manufacturing base.
