Oregon's fourth-largest city has decades of exterior work waiting to be done right.
Gresham is big, diverse, and often underserved by contractors who focus on the wealthier west-side suburbs. With over 110,000 residents, it's one of the largest cities in Oregon — and a significant portion of its housing stock dates to the post-war era and the 1960s through 1980s, much of it with original siding, windows, and aging decks that haven't been touched since they were built.
The Centennial and Kelly Creek neighborhoods in particular have block after block of 1960s–70s ranch homes where the original hardboard or T1-11 siding is past its useful life — bubbling, absorbing moisture, and failing at seams. These are high-ROI replacement projects — new fiber cement siding transforms the curb appeal and protects the structure for another 30+ years.
Gresham's position on the east side of the metro gives it a slightly different climate than Portland proper — more sun in summer, colder winters, and more pronounced temperature swings that accelerate paint failure and wood movement. We factor the east-side exposure into our material recommendations, particularly for south and west-facing walls that get the hardest sun.
The City of Gresham has its own active permit office — not Multnomah County — with its own timeline and requirements for decks, fencing, and structural work. We know the process and handle all permit coordination. Gresham also has several active neighborhood associations in areas like Rockwood and Pleasant Valley that have specific aesthetic preferences — we're aware of the local context.
Services in Gresham
What we build & install in Gresham, OR
Fencing
Cedar, vinyl, chain-link & iron. Gresham's older neighborhoods have high fence replacement demand — aging wood that's leaning, rotting at the base, or simply past its lifespan after decades in place.
Learn more →Decks
New builds, repairs & composite. Many Gresham ranch homes have original 1970s decks with unsafe ledger connections — we assess structural integrity honestly and rebuild to current code.
Learn more →Siding
Fiber cement & vinyl siding. Centennial and Kelly Creek have blocks of 1960s–70s homes with original hardboard siding failing at the seams — fiber cement replacement is one of the highest-ROI projects in Gresham.
Learn more →Windows
Replacement & new installs. Gresham's colder east-side winters make window upgrades a high-priority project — single-pane originals drive up heating bills significantly from November through March.
Learn more →Doors
Entry, patio & sliding glass. Older Gresham homes often have original hollow-core or poorly insulated entry doors — we replace with solid, energy-efficient units that seal properly through temperature extremes.

FAQ
Questions about exterior work in Gresham, OR.
Yes — Gresham has its own permit office separate from Multnomah County. Decks over 30 inches above grade require a City of Gresham building permit. Fence permits depend on height and zoning — most residential fences over 6 feet require a permit. We handle all City of Gresham permit applications, fee payments, and inspection scheduling as part of your project.
1970s Gresham homes most commonly need: siding replacement (original hardboard or T1-11 is past its lifespan and actively letting moisture in), window replacement (original single-pane aluminum windows drive up heating costs significantly), and deck assessment (ledger connections from this era are frequently improper by current code). We'll give you an honest priority list at the free estimate based on what we actually find at your property.
Yes. Gresham runs slightly colder in winter and gets more direct sun in summer than most west-side communities — the east side of the metro sits in a different micro-climate. This means more pronounced temperature swings that accelerate paint failure and cause more wood movement. South and west-facing walls take the hardest sun exposure. We factor this into our product recommendations, particularly for siding paint systems and wood species selection.

Yes. Gresham's position at the mouth of the Columbia River Gorge means it gets hit hard by east wind events — windstorms that knock down sections of fence are common, especially in late fall and winter. Call us at 503-882-0704 and we'll prioritize storm damage repairs as quickly as our schedule allows, often same-day or next-day for urgent situations.
