Cedar Siding Maintenance

Cedar siding can last decades with proper care. Here's how to maintain it.

Staining

  • Use a penetrating oil-based stain
  • Apply within 2 weeks of installation
  • Re-stain every 3-5 years

Cleaning

  • Wash annually with mild soap and water
  • Never pressure wash at high settings

Weathering

Cedar can be left to weather to a silver-grey patina, or stained to maintain warm tones.
