What It Involves
Siding Is the Weather Barrier for Everything Behind It
Siding keeps water off the sheathing, insulation, and framing. When it cracks, warps, or pulls away, water gets behind it and does its damage where nobody can see it until the problem is expensive.
Siding work with us means removing the failed material, inspecting the sheathing underneath, replacing any that has rotted, installing new house wrap where needed, and hanging the new siding with proper trim and flashing at every window, door, and corner.
We handle full replacement and section repair. Which one makes sense depends on how much has failed and whether the existing color and profile can still be matched.
- Sheathing checked. Once the old siding is off, we look at what it was protecting.
- House wrap and flashing. The moisture barrier and the details at openings are what keep water out.
- Full or partial. Replacement or repair, depending on what has actually failed.
When You May Need It
Signs Your Siding Needs Attention
Most of these look cosmetic from the street. They usually are not.
Cracked, Warped, or Buckled Panels
Any gap that lets water behind the siding is doing damage to the wall underneath.
Panels Pulling Away
Loose siding at seams or corners lets wind drive rain straight into the wall assembly.
Soft Spots or Rot Behind It
If the trim or siding gives under pressure, water has been sitting there. That is a sheathing problem, not just a siding problem.
Peeling Paint Inside the House
Moisture coming through the wall from failed siding often shows first as paint or wallpaper trouble indoors.
Hail or Wind Damage
Dents, cracks, and holes after a storm. Siding damage is frequently a covered claim alongside the roof.
Fading and Chalking
Heavy chalking and fading mean the material has aged out and is losing its ability to shed water.
Why Choose Todd Masterson Roofing & Exteriors
How We Handle Siding
The siding you see is only part of the job. What is behind it is the part that matters.
We Look Behind It
Old siding comes off and the sheathing gets inspected before anything new goes on. Rot gets fixed, not covered.
Details Done Right
Water gets in at windows, doors, and corners. That is where the flashing and trim work has to be correct.
Honest About Match
If a section repair can be matched to the existing siding, we will do it. If it cannot, we tell you before you find out from the driveway.
Coordinated With Gutters and Trim
Siding, gutters, fascia, and trim are one system. We plan the work so each one is done in the right order.
Worth Knowing
Things to Consider Before Siding Work
A few points that shape the scope.
Repair vs. Full Replacement
Partial repair saves money if the existing siding can be matched. Older colors are often discontinued and weathered, and a visible patch may not be worth the savings.
Material Choice
Vinyl is the most common and lowest maintenance. Fiber cement costs more, takes paint well, and holds up better to impact. Each has trade-offs we will walk through.
What Is Underneath
The scope can change once old siding comes off and the sheathing is visible. We tell you what we find before proceeding.
Sequencing
If the roof or gutters also need work, the order matters. Roof first, then siding and trim, then gutters and paint.
