Cedar & Wood Siding Painting
CertaPro Painters® of Pittsburgh South Hills
Wood Siding Painting & Staining Services in Pittsburgh – South Hills
Wood siding is a timeless and attractive choice for many homes throughout the South Hills area of Pittsburgh. From Mt. Lebanon to Upper St. Clair, we often see beautifully crafted homes with wood or cedar siding that adds warmth and character to the exterior. However, like all siding materials, wood can fade, chip, or peel over time—especially with exposure to Western Pennsylvania’s shifting seasons.
Intense summer sun can cause fading and discoloration, while rain, snow, and humidity in the colder months may lead to moisture damage or even wood rot. If your wood or cedar siding is starting to show signs of wear, now is the time to refresh and protect it.
The team at CertaPro Painters® of Pittsburgh – South Hills specializes in wood siding painting and staining services designed to restore your home’s appearance and safeguard it from the elements.

CertaPro painted the outside of our house and did an excellent job at a great price. They took care in the prep work, fixing some minor issues of wood rot, and then applied two coats of fresh paint. From our first contact through the painting team's last brush stroke, the results were just what we were looking for.

Cedar Siding in Pittsburgh – South Hills
Cedar siding is a popular and visually striking exterior material found on many homes throughout the South Hills of Pittsburgh, including neighborhoods like Bethel Park, Mt. Lebanon, and Upper St. Clair. It brings a natural warmth and charm that fits well with both classic and contemporary home styles—but like all wood exteriors, it comes with unique benefits and maintenance needs.
Pros
Cedar is a versatile material that allows for custom finishes, including beveled siding and shingles. Over time, its natural patina adds to its timeless appeal—blending well with the aesthetic of South Hills neighborhoods. It also provides better insulation than many other siding materials, helping to keep homes energy-efficient. Cedar siding is relatively easy to work with and, when properly maintained, can last for decades.
Cons
While cedar is more resistant to weather and insects than many other woods, it is still vulnerable to rot, moisture intrusion, and pest damage if not properly sealed and maintained—especially in Pennsylvania’s humid summers and snowy winters. It’s also important to avoid using iron nails during installation, as cedar can chemically react with iron and cause staining or corrosion.
If your cedar siding needs staining, painting, or maintenance, trust the local experts at CertaPro Painters® of Pittsburgh – South Hills. Contact us today for a free estimate and give your home the care it deserves.

Cement Fiberboard Siding Painting
Fiber cement siding, often called hardie board or hardie plank, is considered a low maintenance material because of its high durability. One reason this type of siding has such high durability is that it absorbs less moisture, allowing for fewer cracking instances. Additionally, its cement composition can help homes better withstand extreme weather. Call CertaPro today to get your home siding painted.
