Roofing, Siding, Windows

Your roof, siding, and windows are the envelope that keeps Pacific Northwest weather out of your walls. We install and replace all three as a system, so flashing details line up and water goes where it should — off the building.

Most envelope failures happen at the transitions: where the roof meets a wall, where a window meets siding. We detail those connections properly with the right underlayment, flashing, and drainage plane. Composition and metal roofing, fiber-cement and LP siding, and energy-efficient windows that cut your heating bill and pass current energy code.

What's included

• Composition, metal, and flat roofing

  Composition shingle, standing-seam and other metal roofing, and low-slope membrane systems — installed with the underlayment, ice-and-water and ventilation details that make a roof last.

• Fiber-cement, LP, and wood siding

  Fiber-cement (HardiePlank and similar), LP SmartSide and wood siding over a weather-resistive barrier and rain screen, so water that gets behind the siding drains out.

• Energy-efficient window replacement

  Energy-efficient windows that pass the current Washington State Energy Code, flashed into the WRB in the right sequence so the wall stays dry.

• Proper flashing and weather-resistive barrier

  The transitions — roof to wall, window to siding, deck ledger to house — flashed as a system, because that's where most envelope failures start.

• Gutters and drainage

  Gutters and downspouts sized for 40 inches of rain, discharging away from the foundation.

• Dry-rot repair at failed transitions

  When we open siding and find rot at a failed window or roof-to-wall transition, we repair the structure, document it and re-detail the envelope so it doesn't come back.

How it works

1. 1
   Free advice visit

   We look at the roof, siding, windows and the transitions between them, and tell you what needs replacing versus repair.

2. 2
   Scope and selections

   Materials, colors and profiles chosen; windows measured; a permit pulled where the jurisdiction requires it.

3. 3
   Tear-off and repair

   Old roofing or siding off, sheathing and framing inspected and repaired, dry rot replaced.

4. 4
   Install as a system

   Underlayment, WRB, flashing, roofing, siding and windows in the right sequence.

5. 5
   Final walkthrough

   Every transition checked, the site cleaned, the final inspection passed where permitted.

The same ten-step process runs every project we build — see how we work.

What it costs

Roofing is priced by area and pitch, siding by wall area and material, and windows per opening by size and type — with tear-off, sheathing repair and the amount of dry rot found driving the difference between a clean job and an expensive one. Doing roof, siding and windows together costs less than doing them in three separate mobilizations because the flashing is detailed once.

Timeline

1. Scope and ordering

   Measurements, selections and window lead time.

2. Tear-off and repair

   Old materials removed and the structure inspected; rot repair happens here.

3. Install

   Roofing first on a combined project, then windows and siding, each flashed into the next.

4. Gutters and cleanup

   Gutters, downspouts, final details and a site clean.
