Ice dams often form when heat escapes from your attic, melting snow on the roof. While the primary fix involves attic insulation and ventilation, properly installed siding with an effective weather-resistant barrier is a critical line of defense. It seals the walls beneath the roof's edge, preventing any water that backs up under the shingles from seeping into your home's structure. At Under Strom Construction, we ensure your siding installation creates a continuous, water-tight envelope to protect against this common local issue.

Yes, it's a good idea to have your siding inspected. Granule loss on asphalt shingles is a sign of advanced weathering and UV exposure from our Indiana sun. The same elements degrade siding materials over time. Weakened or damaged siding can't properly protect your home's sheathing and insulation, compounding the problems started by a failing roof. Our team can assess both systems, often recommending coordinated siding repair or replacement to restore full protection and improve your home's energy efficiency and curb appeal.

For our climate with its hot summers, cold winters, and potential for severe storms, durability and impact resistance are key. We often recommend fiber cement or insulated vinyl siding for Jeffersonville homes. These materials resist temperature-driven expansion/contraction, hold up well against wind-driven rain, and provide excellent protection against the moisture that can stem from roof and gutter problems. During a replacement, we also address the underlying wall sheathing, ensuring any past water damage from issues like ice dams is fully repaired before the new siding goes on.
