FAQs
What building-envelope, roofing, and siding services do you provide in Oneida?
We offer complete exterior solutions, including roof replacement, new roof installation, roof repairs, siding installation (vinyl, fiber-cement, engineered wood, and metal panels), soffit and fascia upgrades, custom flashing, weather-barrier installation, air/vapor sealing, insulation retrofits, and detailed moisture-control assessments. Our team also performs infrared scans and blower-door testing to diagnose envelope weaknesses before recommending the most cost-effective fix.
How can I tell if my building envelope or roof needs repair or full replacement?
Warning signs include leaking during rain or melt, ice dams, missing or curled shingles, loose siding panels, increasing energy bills, drafts near walls or attic access, visible mold or mildew, and staining on interior ceilings. We provide free on-site inspections in Oneida that include attic and wall cavity checks, moisture meter readings, and drone imagery. Afterward we deliver a written report outlining the condition of each envelope layer and whether targeted repairs or a total system replacement will deliver the best long-term value.
Which roofing and siding materials perform best in Oneida’s Central New York climate?
For roofing we typically recommend architectural asphalt shingles rated for 130-mph wind uplift, Class A fire resistance, and algae protection; standing-seam metal roofing with Kynar 500® finish for maximum snow-shedding and longevity; or EPDM/TPO membranes for low-slope commercial decks. For siding, insulated vinyl (R-value up to 3.5), fiber-cement with baked-on paint, and high-gauge steel or aluminum are all proven to withstand Oneida’s freeze-thaw cycles, lake-effect snow, and summer humidity. During your consultation we discuss aesthetics, maintenance preferences, and budget to select the optimal combination.
Are your roofing and siding systems energy-efficient and compliant with local codes?
Yes. All assemblies are engineered to meet or exceed the 2020 New York State Energy Conservation Construction Code and the International Residential/Building Code. We install continuous exterior insulation, taped WRB membranes, and high-performance flashing to minimize thermal bridging and air leakage. Our roofing packages include proper ridge/soffit ventilation, an Ice & Water Shield membrane extending at least 24 inches inside the warm-wall line, and Class 4 impact-rated shingles upon request. Every permit, inspection, and manufacturer specification is strictly followed to protect your warranty and ensure long-term energy savings.
What is the typical timeline and process for a roofing or siding project in Oneida?
After the initial assessment and estimate approval, we finalize material selections and secure city or county permits (usually 3-5 business days). Roofing projects on an average 2,000-sq-ft home take 1-2 days for tear-off and underlayment, plus 1-2 days for shingle or metal installation and clean-up, weather permitting. Full siding replacement generally spans 5-7 workdays, including demolition, sheathing repairs, WRB installation, trim work, and final detailing. Throughout the job, a dedicated site supervisor provides daily progress updates and ensures landscaping and neighboring properties remain protected.
Do you offer warranties and ongoing maintenance plans for your building-envelope solutions?
Absolutely. Our roofing systems come with manufacturer limited lifetime shingle warranties and a 10-year workmanship guarantee. Metal roofs carry 40-year finish warranties. Siding lines are backed by 25-to-50-year product warranties, plus our 5-year labor warranty. We also offer affordable annual or bi-annual maintenance packages that include roof inspections, gutter cleaning, minor sealant touch-ups, and siding washdowns to keep your building envelope performing at peak efficiency and to catch small issues before they become expensive repairs.
