Flashing separation at the roof-to-wall junction is a common point of water entry. When we install new siding, we carefully remove the old material to fully inspect this critical area. Our process includes repairing or replacing any compromised roof flashing before the new siding goes on. This ensures a secure, watertight seal between your roof and walls, preventing the leaks that often start from this specific local problem.

It depends on the extent of the damage discovered. During a siding repair, we can access a limited section to assess the sheathing and underlayment beneath. If the damage is isolated, a targeted repair of both the underlayment and siding is often sufficient. However, widespread or recurring underlayment damage discovered during an inspection often indicates that a full siding replacement is the more reliable, long-term solution to properly address the root cause and protect your home's structure.

In our climate, damaged roof underlayment often allows moisture to seep into the wall sheathing behind your siding. Simply replacing the underlayment from the roof alone doesn't address this hidden, saturated material. A full siding replacement allows us to remove the compromised sheathing, treat any mold or rot, install a proper weather-resistant barrier, and then apply new siding. This comprehensive approach is the most effective way to stop the cycle of moisture damage common in our area.
