While siding itself doesn't directly prevent flashing issues, a full exterior assessment and proper installation are key. When we install or replace siding, we carefully inspect the adjacent roof flashing for corrosion—a common local problem. If we find damage, we can coordinate the repair or replacement of the flashing before the new siding goes on, ensuring a watertight seal and protecting your home from the inside out.

Skylight leaks often originate from failing seals or flashing where the unit meets the roof and siding. During a siding replacement project, we have direct access to these critical junctions. This allows us to properly reseal or refit the skylight's perimeter flashing as part of the job, addressing the leak at its source. It's a efficient way to solve two common Burlington exterior issues simultaneously.

We generally recommend a coordinated approach. Issues like flashing corrosion or skylight leaks can impact both your roof and siding. As a full-service contractor, we can assess the entire exterior system. Often, repairing the roof leak (like replacing corroded flashing) and then addressing the siding (through repair or replacement) in one project is more cost-effective and ensures complete protection from Iowa weather, preventing future water damage.
