Siding Repair and Replacement

Water Damage and Rot Repair

Soft, stained or swollen siding, sheathing and trim repaired at the source so moisture stops getting in.

Rot is quiet. A bit of peeling paint near a window, a stain below a roof edge or a board that feels soft under a screwdriver can be the visible tip of a bigger problem. Tennessee humidity and heavy rain are hard on exterior wood, and any gap in flashing, caulk or gutters gives water a path to sheathing, framing and insulation. Left alone, moisture feeds rot, mold and pests, and the repair grows with every season.

We start by tracing the water. Probing and moisture checks help us find how far the damage goes, and a careful look at gutters, flashing, roof edges, window heads and sills usually reveals the cause. Then we remove what is soft, replace sheathing, framing or trim as needed, add flashing where it was missing and rebuild the wall to shed water properly. We show you what we found, explain the repair and make sure the new materials are sealed and primed before the siding goes back on.

Trace the source

We check gutters, roof edges, windows and flashing to find where the water gets in, so the repair stays repaired.

Measure the damage

Probing and moisture checks show how far rot extends into sheathing, framing and trim.

Rebuild properly

Soft materials are removed and replaced with sound, treated or primed pieces that are sealed on all edges.

Flashing fixes

Missing or failing flashing is corrected, which is the most common long-term cure for moisture problems.

Questions

Water Damage and Rot Repair FAQ

How can I tell if my siding has hidden rot?

Soft spots, peeling paint, swelling, stains and musty smells are clues. A moisture check and probing confirm it.

Can rot be repaired without replacing everything?

Often yes. Damaged sections are cut out and replaced when the rest of the wall is sound.

Will mold be an issue?

Persistent moisture can lead to mold. We note what we see and recommend a specialist when the problem is beyond siding.

Why does the same spot keep rotting?

Usually a flashing, gutter or grading problem keeps sending water there. Fix the cause and the problem stops.

Is treated lumber needed?

It is often used in vulnerable spots. We choose materials suited to each location.
