Exterior Remodeling Projects
At Armadas Exterior, some of the best examples of our work aren’t found in a list of our services but what we have found in the homes we’ve worked on and the problems we’ve been asked to solve.
Our Project Stories take you behind the finished photographs. We show you where the project started, what we discovered along the way, the decisions we made in the field, and how the finished project came together.
Explore exterior remodeling projects in Oregon and Southwest Washington, including roofing, siding, windows, gutters and complete exterior renovations completed by Armadas Exterior.
More Than Before & After Photos
We’re building this collection from projects we’ve actually completed—not stock photography or generic examples. As we add new Project Stories, we’ll share the challenges we encountered, products and techniques we used, decisions made during construction, and lessons we’ve learned from working on homes throughout the Pacific Northwest.
Check back as we add roofing, siding, window, gutter and complete exterior remodeling projects from across our service area.

GRESHAM, OREGON
When a Roofing Project Became a Complete Rebuild
Armadas was originally hired to install roofing and gutters on this backyard project. But before our crew arrived, progress photos revealed framing conditions serious enough that we stopped and asked for a closer inspection.
What we found changed the project completely. See how recognizing a problem before starting our own work ultimately led to Armadas helping a Gresham homeowner recover a troubled construction project and bring it through to completion.

RIDGEFIELD, WASHINGTON
From a Gutter Estimate to a Complete Exterior Transformation
What started as an estimate to replace the gutters on this Ridgefield home grew into a complete exterior renovation. After learning that Armadas could handle multiple exterior systems, homeowner Curtis McDonald added the roof—and as the project progressed, entrusted our team with the siding and exterior paint as well.
Along the way, removing the existing siding exposed extensive hidden deterioration around a large chimney chase. Our team rebuilt the damaged area, corrected the water-management details contributing to the problem, and completed the home’s new roof, James Hardie siding, gutters and exterior paint.

GLADSTONE, OREGON
From Fire-Damaged Vinyl to a Full-House Siding Transformation
When heat from a neighboring house fire melted the vinyl siding on one side of this 1910 Gladstone home, homeowner Tom Ritz initially needed a solution for just the damaged area.
But discontinued vinyl, concerns with work started by another contractor, and a desire for a more cohesive exterior eventually led Tom to Armadas Exterior.
Once the existing vinyl came off, we discovered multiple generations of siding hidden underneath—including cedar lap, cedar shake and T1-11 installed at different depths across the home. Before new James Hardie siding could go on, our team first had to create the consistent exterior surface the new siding required.
The project ultimately became a collaboration between Armadas and the homeowner, with Tom completing his own custom details and painting while our team coordinated the siding, window integration and final gutter installation around his budget and timeline.
