Siding repair

Water that gets past the roof usually shows on the siding next, so siding damage and roof problems are frequently found together. Vinyl cracks and comes loose in wind, fiber cement holds up well but fails at joints and penetrations, and wood rots wherever a detail lets water sit. Repair is generally straightforward; the useful part is working out what put water there in the first place.

Questions

Why is my siding damaged under the roofline?

Usually a roof or flashing detail above it directing water onto the wall rather than away. Replacing the siding without fixing that just resets the clock on the same damage.

Can new siding be matched to existing?

Often, though colour fades with exposure so new panels tend to look brighter at first. Where a profile is discontinued, panels are sometimes taken from a less visible elevation and the new stock used there.

Describe what you are seeing

Most metro Atlanta leaks trace back to a storm that did not look like it caused damage. The shingles are still there, the roof looks fine from the driveway, and water is getting in anyway. Finding where is the job.
