Building in Longview, Washington—a city with a rich history founded by timber magnate R.A. Long in the 1920s—requires careful attention to the local weather. With frequent rainfall and strong winds, Longview contractors must apply specialized strategies to ensure your home is built to last.
Longview experiences significant rainfall due to its location in the Pacific Northwest. Our contractors utilize advanced drainage systems, moisture-resistant materials, and elevated foundations to prevent rain from damaging homes. Just as Longview was designed to accommodate a growing timber industry, we design homes to withstand the wet climate.
Longview’s open landscape and proximity to the river make it susceptible to high winds, particularly in the fall and winter. To ensure your home stands firm, our team builds with reinforced roofing and siding, carefully selected to handle windstorms.
Given Longview’s climate, choosing the right materials is key to building a long-lasting home. We use high-quality, moisture-resistant products like cedar, which aligns with the city’s timber history, and composite materials that require minimal maintenance. These choices keep your home protected and looking great for years.
While the best construction months are generally from spring through summer, we understand that projects often extend into the rainy seasons. Our contractors are skilled at managing weather-related disruptions, ensuring your project stays on track regardless of the season.
Longview’s unique weather demands expertise. Our contractors are not only familiar with the local climate but also with the history of the area. Just as R.A. Long envisioned a city built to last, we construct homes designed to endure the region’s unpredictable weather. We employ strategies that protect your investment, from foundation to roof.
