Defect / Water Leak Remediation

Not terribly unlike cancer, water damage due to construction defect can go largely unnoticed for years.

And then the symptoms may begin to show up slowly. This photo shows a window that had begun to leak, and the homeowner pulled-off some siding and attempted to affect the repairs himself.

But when water began showing up around other openings, he decided he might want to get someone involved who does this type of work for a living.
Sometimes we will open-up the walls as needed to…

…ascertain the extent of the cause and the damage in a particular area, but then move onto other known problem areas before repairing or replacing the wall components in order to gain the full-scope of what the project is going to entail.

This is why you can see portions of the exterior walls covered-up in our photos here. This provides protection to opened areas while we continue the inspection process.

As you can see, if the weather requires it, as it often can in the Willamette Valley, we can provide and erect a temporary cover for a impromptu shop for storing and cutting materials as needed.

The same goes for protecting the house while we perform the repairs. We get lots of practice, so we we’re fairly good at providing the necessary cover.

Almost done on this end of the house.

We move around now to the front of the house and make our way to the other end.
And yes, we can contend with all the various types of siding, including EFIS and the masonry types of stucco as well.

Tim Afonin is our chief siding expert, and chiefly responsible for the reputation that we enjoy in this particular department of our business.
