Tulley Contracting | Roofing Services in Gouverneur, NY 13642

Ice dams cause water to back up under shingles and seep into your home. While proper roof ventilation and insulation are the primary solutions, quality siding acts as a crucial secondary barrier. At Tulley Contracting, we install and repair siding with expert sealing and flashing details around eaves, soffits, and wall intersections. This creates a water-resistant shell that helps protect your home's sheathing and interior from any moisture that gets past the roof line, a common issue in our area.

Absolutely. Rusty flashing fails to direct water away from critical junctions, like where the roof meets a wall or chimney. This often leads to water staining, rot, or mold on the siding and sheathing below. Our siding repair service starts by assessing and often coordinating with our roofing team to address the flashing source. We then carefully remove and replace any rotted or water-damaged siding sections, ensuring the new installation is properly integrated with repaired or new flashing to stop the leak for good.

It depends on the extent of water intrusion. We recommend a repair if the damage is isolated—for example, a few warped panels near a leaky chimney flashing. However, if ice dams or persistent leaks have caused widespread moisture behind the siding across a wall, the underlying sheathing is likely compromised. In these cases, a full replacement is the safer, long-term solution. Our team will inspect the sheathing integrity and advise you honestly, ensuring your Gouverneur home gets a durable, weather-tight exterior that prevents future problems.
