Siding Contractors in Mount Pleasant, Ontario
Exterior work in the hamlet south of Brantford, on open ground where wind exposure shapes the job.
Brantford Siding Co covers Mount Pleasant and the surrounding countryside south of the city.
Close to town, open to the weather
Mount Pleasant sits roughly 5 km south of Brantford on Mount Pleasant Road, County Road 24. That short distance makes it an easy area for us to serve, and it puts properties here in noticeably more open country than a street inside the city.
That exposure is the main practical difference. County of Brant winters bring brief but intense snowfall with northwesterly winds gusting near 70 km/h, producing blowing and drifting snow, and temperatures reach -15°C or colder. On an open site those conditions load a wall and a roofline harder than they load a sheltered one.
What that changes in practice: fasteners go in at tighter spacing, every course gets fully engaged rather than nearly engaged, and eavestrough gets hung on solid framing with proper fall. Wind failures almost always start at one incompletely locked panel.
An old settlement
Mount Pleasant is one of the earliest planned settlements in Upper Canada, with sections set apart for settlement around 1800, and it lies within the Grand River Tract granted to the Six Nations under Joseph Brant in 1784 by the Haldimand Deed. Land for the public cemetery was granted in 1802 and the first burial took place that same year.
The Mount Pleasant Cemetery, at the southwest corner of Mount Pleasant Road and Burtch Road, was designated by the County of Brant in 2006 under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act, with marble markers carrying the detailed carving typical of 19th-century stonework. Mount Pleasant was also the birthplace of Dr. Augusta Stowe-Gullen, the first woman to graduate in medicine in Canada, born here in 1857.
When Brant County was formed in 1851 it consisted of Brantford Township, taking in Brantford, Paris, Mount Pleasant and Cainsville.

Siding Questions from Mount Pleasant Homeowners
Is Mount Pleasant too small for you to come out to?
Not at all. It sits about 5 km south of Brantford on Mount Pleasant Road, County Road 24, which makes it one of the shorter runs we do. Small communities are often better served by someone close by than by a company sending a crew from another city.
Does the open setting affect the work?
Yes. Away from the shelter of a built-up street, wind loading is higher and driving rain hits walls harder. County of Brant winters bring intense snowfall with northwesterly winds gusting near 70 km/h, which produces blowing and drifting snow. That argues for tighter fastening and careful attention to how each course locks in.
Do you handle rural properties and outbuildings?
Yes. Much of the work around Mount Pleasant is on properties with more land than a village lot, and sheds, workshops and barns get clad as well as houses.
Is there heritage designation to consider?
There is designated heritage in the community, including the Mount Pleasant Cemetery, designated by the County of Brant in 2006 under the Ontario Heritage Act. If your own property is designated it is worth confirming with the County what applies before exterior work begins.
