Wood Sidina and Shingles <br />When repairing or remodeling exterior wall surfaces, the original exterior building materials <br />should be retained where possible and when applicable should be cleaned with the gentlest <br />means possible. With the exception of a few architectural styles, most of the residences in <br />Heninger Park have wood siding. The appearance of wood siding on these residences helps <br />define the historic character of the neighborhood. Wood siding should be repaired and not <br />replaced, removed, or covered with stucco. Siding is an architectural character defining feature <br />and should be maintained and repaired whenever possible. <br />drop elding clapboard <br />Design Characteristics <br />Most exterior siding styles are made of redwood or cedar. The different siding styles include <br />clapboard, board and batten, shingle, shake, and plank. <br />Methods of repairing wood siding are by patching, splicing, consolidating from a less visible <br />part of the home, or otherwise reinforcing features. Such repair may also include <br />replacement in-kind of those parts that are either extensively deteriorated or are missing. <br />Replacing siding that is too deteriorated to repair should be replaced with similar material. If <br />using the same kind of material is not economically feasible, then a compatible substitute <br />may be considered. <br />30 <br />Resolution No. 2006-022 <br />Page 36 of 71 <br />
