M & J Construction | General Contractors & Roofing in Woodbridge, NJ 07095

Properly installed siding works in tandem with your roof's flashing system. When we install or replace siding, we ensure a tight, weatherproof seal around all roof penetrations and edges. This prevents water from getting behind the flashing—a common point of failure in our area—and protects the underlying structure from the moisture damage that leads to curling shingles and leaks.

Often, yes. In Woodbridge, curling shingles can signal ventilation issues in your attic, which can also affect your siding and cause premature wear. During a roofing inspection, we assess the entire exterior envelope. Damaged or improperly installed siding can trap heat and moisture, worsening roof problems. Addressing both systems together ensures your home is properly protected and can be more cost-effective in the long run.

If you have persistent leaks from flashing failures or wind-driven rain, water may have infiltrated behind your siding, causing rot in the sheathing. Simple repairs won't address this hidden damage. A full replacement allows us to remove the old siding, inspect and repair the wood underneath, and install a new, water-resistant barrier. This creates a solid foundation for your new roof and flashing, solving the root cause of the leak.
