Fiber Cement
Spotlight Material
Why Fiber Cement Dominates Wyoming Exteriors
Composed of Portland cement, sand, and cellulose fibers, fiber cement handles what Wyoming throws at it — 100°F summer days, -30°F January lows, 90+ mph wind events, and softball-sized hailstorms — without cracking, warping, or fading. It's the material we recommend most frequently, and for good reason.

Moisture-Proof Core
Cement-based composition cannot absorb water the way wood does, eliminating the rot and mold cycle that destroys traditional siding in high-humidity or snow-melt conditions.
UV & Color Stability
Factory baked-on ColorPlus® finish or field-applied exterior paint bonds to cement differently than wood, maintaining curb appeal for a decade or more between recoats.
Pest & Termite Resistant
No cellulose on the surface means insects have nothing to eat. This is particularly valuable in the mixed agricultural zones surrounding Casper.

Why BearTooth
The Standard Difference
Anyone can hang siding. We engineer exterior systems that seal the thermal envelope, manage bulk water, and remain airtight through decades of Wyoming weather extremes. Here's what sets us apart.
Climate-Engineering Approach
We assess thermal bridging, vapor drive direction, and wind uplift loads before selecting any product — then install per IRC and ASCE 7 wind exposure requirements.
Manufacturer-Trained Installers
Our crews hold current James Hardie® and LP SmartSide® installation certification — required to activate full product warranties that protect your investment.
No-Surprise Scheduling
We provide a binding project calendar before mobilization. Daily progress photos are shared so you're never wondering what happened while you were at work.
Our Commitment
Materials We Trust
We don't upsell. We specify the right product for each microclimate condition, budget, and aesthetic goal — then back every installation with a workmanship warranty.
Verified Material Sourcing
All fiber cement, vinyl, and flashing products are sourced from US-headquartered manufacturers with Wyoming climate zone certifications — no gray-market imports.
Detailed Scope Documentation
Every estimate includes a full scope-of-work PDF specifying product names, installation methods, fastener schedules, and warranty details — so there's no ambiguity at invoice time.
Post-Project Support
After job completion we provide a full project photo set, all warranty registration documentation, and a 12-month check-in visit at no extra cost.

Wyoming Climate
Casper's Extreme Conditions Demand More
At 5,150 feet elevation, Casper ranks among the windiest cities in the US. Add subzero January lows, hailstorm frequency, and intense UV at altitude — and the exterior envelope must be engineered beyond minimum code to survive 30+ years intact.
Wind Exposure Category C/D
Casper's open basin geography places most structures in ASCE 7 Wind Exposure Category C or D. Our fastener schedules are designed accordingly — not just to code minimum.
Hail Zone 3 Classification
Wyoming's front range is one of the most hail-active regions in North America. Class 4-rated fiber cement and impact-resistant panels can eliminate the need for frequent insurance claims.
120+ Freeze-Thaw Cycles / Year
Materials that absorb moisture will crack at freeze-thaw interfaces. We specify and detail products that drain freely and dry rapidly to resist cyclic moisture damage.
High-Altitude UV Intensity
UV radiation increases roughly 5% per 1,000 ft of elevation. At 5,150 ft, Casper's UV index reaches levels that accelerate paint degradation on inadequately protected surfaces.
Wyoming's wind corridors and hail alley geography make exterior envelope quality non-negotiable for long-term building performance.
Client Reviews
What Homeowners Say
★★★★★
"After the June hailstorm destroyed our old vinyl, BearTooth did a full re-side in fiber cement. Three years later it still looks brand new. The flashing work around our bay window stopped a leak that had been plaguing us for years."
M
Mike & Sandra R.Casper, WY — Fiber Cement Re-Side
★★★★★
"Very professional from start to finish. They gave me a detailed written estimate, showed up exactly when they said, and cleaned up every evening. The soffit ventilation they installed made a huge difference in my attic temperatures that summer."
K
Karen T.Mills, WY — Soffit & Fascia
★★★★★
"I'm a property manager and have used BearTooth on four different buildings now. Their window flashing work on our 1970s strip mall eliminated every single moisture complaint from tenants. Responsive, skilled, and trustworthy."

About BearTooth Builders
Casper's Exterior Specialists Since 2009
BearTooth Builders was founded in Casper by tradespeople who grew up in Wyoming and understood that exterior cladding here is not a cosmetic choice — it's a structural decision. Our founder spent years watching imported construction practices fail in local conditions before building a company around climate-first specification.
Today we operate a crew of 20+ certified installers across Natrona, Carbon, and Converse counties. We handle everything from new-construction envelope packages to single-panel hail replacements with equal care and attention to detail.
Every installer on our team has completed manufacturer certification training and participates in annual continuing education on building science, moisture management, and code compliance updates.

Common Questions
Got Questions? We've Got Answers.
Everything you need to know before starting your siding, soffit, or flashing project with BearTooth Builders.
Most single-family residential re-sides take 5–10 business days from mobilization to final walkthrough, depending on square footage, profile complexity, and weather. We include a binding completion milestone in every signed contract. Commercial and multi-family projects are scheduled with custom timelines discussed at the estimating stage.
For most Casper-area homes, yes — fiber cement's Class 4 hail rating and non-combustibility make it the superior long-term investment. That said, modern insulated vinyl performs extremely well, costs less upfront, and may be appropriate for investment properties or projects with tighter budgets. We'll give you an honest comparison for your specific situation. Neither product is universally "better" without knowing the building, climate exposure, and owner goals.
Yes. We have extensive experience with hail and wind damage claims throughout Natrona County. We'll document all storm damage with photographs and measurements, provide a detailed scope-of-loss estimate formatted for insurance adjusters, and work directly with your carrier to get accurate coverage for the full scope of repairs. We do not inflate claims — our goal is accurate, complete documentation that gets your project funded fairly.
Window flashing is a system of metal, membrane, and drainage materials installed at every window and door opening to direct water out of the wall assembly rather than into it. Failed or missing flashing is the leading cause of structural wood rot and mold in Wyoming homes — water follows gravity and wind pressure through the smallest imperfection. Our flashing details comply with ASTM E2112 standards and are inspected by a crew lead before any cladding panel covers them.
Proper eave ventilation balances attic airflow, preventing the warm-air buildup that causes ice dams at roof edges during freeze-thaw cycles. Ice dams force meltwater under shingles and behind siding, causing extensive interior damage. Our soffit installations always include a ventilation calculation to match the net free area requirements for your attic square footage — then we verify the ridge or high vent is adequate to create proper airflow balance.
In most cases, yes. We maintain relationships with all major manufacturers and can often source discontinued profiles or find equivalent replacements. For partial repairs we color-match using factory finish options or carefully selected exterior paint formulations. If an exact match is impossible, we'll show you the closest option and let you decide whether to proceed with the partial repair or plan a larger replacement that will read uniformly.
Yes. BearTooth handles commercial siding, soffit, and flashing projects on retail buildings, office complexes, warehouses, agricultural structures, and multi-family housing. Commercial projects include a pre-construction meeting, full submittal package for the building owner or GC, and weekly progress reporting. Contact us to discuss commercial scopes — we can mobilize larger crews as needed to meet construction schedule requirements.
