Tuxedo is one of Winnipeg’s most established neighbourhoods — mature elms lining wide streets, large lots, and homes built to last that have largely done so. Many Tuxedo properties date from the 1950s through the 1980s, and while they were well-constructed, the original siding and trim on these homes has been working against Manitoba winters for decades. The results show: cracked caulk lines, failing wood fascia, and aging vinyl that was never designed for sustained cold below -30°C. Stellar Exteriors installs siding, soffit and fascia, eavestroughs, and roofing on Tuxedo homes with the precision these properties deserve.

Our Services for Tuxedo Homes

Tuxedo’s housing stock is dominated by larger established homes — split-levels, two-storeys, and ranch-styles from the postwar era, with a growing number of newer luxury builds on sizeable lots. Many of these homes still have original wood siding or early-generation vinyl that’s reached the end of its useful life. Here’s how we approach each service on Tuxedo properties:

Siding — James Hardie fibre cement is our most requested choice on Tuxedo homes. Its profiles suit the architectural character of established properties, and it handles the extreme temperature swings of a Winnipeg winter far better than aging wood. For the neighbourhood’s newer luxury builds, LP SmartSide offers a premium engineered wood option with a clean, contemporary finish. We also install Kaycan and Gentek vinyl where that’s the right fit.

Soffit & Fascia — Older Tuxedo homes frequently show fascia rot along the roofline, particularly where ice dams have pushed water back under the eaves for years. We replace wood fascia with aluminum-capped or PVC product that won’t fail in the next cold snap.

Eavestroughs — Many Tuxedo properties have large overhanging trees, which means eavestrough maintenance and eventual replacement are a recurring reality. We install aluminum eavestroughs with proper pitch and capacity for Winnipeg’s spring melt.

Roofing, Custom Cladding, and Versetta Stone are also available for Tuxedo properties looking for a full exterior refresh.

We understand established homes.

Tuxedo properties are not cookie-cutter. They have architectural details, specific profiles, and in many cases, original features that need to be matched or respected. We’ve worked on enough of these homes to know what to look for before we start — and to plan accordingly. That matters on a home of this calibre.

Climate expertise — including ice damming on large-eave rooflines.

Many Tuxedo homes have longer roof runs and deep eaves, conditions that promote ice dam formation in a Manitoba winter. Ice dams push meltwater back under shingles and damage fascia, soffit, and interior ceilings over time. We address the cause, not just the cosmetic result.

On a home of this calibre, installation quality matters as much as the product. Our James Hardie Certified status means the installation meets the manufacturer’s standard — and the warranty holds.

Post-job inspection on every project.

John returns after every completed job to walk the site. He checks the details — trim, corners, flashings — and signs off when it’s right. It’s the step that separates finished from done right.

What Tuxedo Homeowners Are Saying

“Very satisfied! They were very thorough, honest, and realistic at every step from the quote to the final result. The crews were friendly, very accommodating, and did a great job cleaning up every day. I recommend you go with Stellar, after getting several quotes no one else was nearly as thorough and knowledgeable.” — Brandon L., Winnipeg 

“This is a very professional company. We were given information on the type of eavestroughs that they were installing, including the leaf guard system. It was sent directly to us so that we can refer to it later. The installation was fast with everything completed in a day. Everything was inspected by a company representative. He showed my husband what had been done and answered his questions. We are very happy with the outcome of the work, and would absolutely recommend their services.” — Jane M., Winnipeg
