Every repair starts the same way: find where the water gets in, remove what has failed, and rebuild what's underneath. Each service page shows the most common problem we find, step by step.
Before
AfterPost rebuilt and wrapped
Dry rot starts where moisture stays trapped behind siding, trim and flashing. We trace where the water gets in, cut out every soft section and rebuild what's underneath.
Most common problem: Missing kick-out flashing where a roof edge meets a wall
See how we fix it
Fiber cement, cedar and lap siding repaired or replaced and matched to your house, with the barrier and flashing behind it done right.
Most common problem: Siding buried in soil or mulch with no clearance at the bottom
See how we fix it
Soft boards, failing framing and loose ledgers. We rebuild decks and stairs to current code, from the house connection out.
Most common problem: No flashing over the ledger board, so water rots the joint that holds the deck
See how we fix itWhen water reaches posts, sills, rim joists and studs, we shore the house and replace the framing it sits on.
Most common problem: Downspouts dumping at the foundation and rotting the mudsill
See how we fix it
Flashing, sill pans, penetration blocks and deck coatings that keep the next leak from starting.
Most common problem: Vents and pipes through the wall sealed with caulk instead of flashing
See how we fix it
Soft trim, rotted sills and leaking windows. We re-flash the opening, rebuild the framing and put back new trim.
Most common problem: No head flashing and no sill pan, so rot starts at the bottom corners
See how we fix it
Wood-framed chimney chases rebuilt and re-sided, with a sloped cover that sheds water.
Most common problem: Flat chase covers that rust, hold water and leak into the framing
See how we fix it
Fascia, rafter tails and soffits rebuilt where gutter overflow has been soaking them for years.
Most common problem: No drip edge and an overflowing gutter wetting the fascia
See how we fix it
Porch columns, balconies and covered entries rebuilt and raised off the concrete.
Most common problem: Column wraps and posts sitting right on the slab
See how we fix itBy the time paint peels or trim feels soft, water has usually been getting behind it for a few seasons.
Caulk and filler cover the symptom. The rot keeps spreading if the flashing or drainage problem stays.
A rotted ledger or post base can fail without much warning.
A section of siding and sheathing costs far less than framing, shoring and a whole wall.
We probe the wood, check moisture and trace where the water is coming from.
