Siding repair and wood repair in San Jose

Quick answer

Siding shields the walls of your home from rain, and the wood trim and fascia behind and around it do the same job at the roofline. Golden Sky Roofing Inc repairs and installs siding and handles wood and dry rot repair for San Jose homes. You get a free on-site estimate and a written proposal.

Siding and wood repair services

Siding repair. We replace damaged, cracked or rotted sections of siding, including wood siding, instead of re-siding the whole house when that is all the house needs. Sections that are warped, split or soft are the usual targets.

Siding installation. We install new siding on homes and additions. Before we quote it, we look at the wall, the trim and the roofline, so the new siding meets the roof edge cleanly and water has a way out. The written proposal spells out the scope.

Wood repair and dry rot repair. Wood at the fascia, eaves, trim and other exterior spots rots when it stays wet. We cut out the damaged wood, replace it, and look for the reason it was wet.

Signs you need siding or wood repair

  • Wood that feels soft or spongy when you press it
  • Peeling paint, bubbling or staining on siding
  • Cracked, warped or missing siding pieces
  • Gaps where the siding meets the trim or the roofline
  • Water stains on interior walls or ceilings near the roof edge

Where roof and siding meet

Wall damage near the roofline often starts with the roof. Water that gets past flashing or overflows a gutter soaks the fascia and the top of the wall. If we patch the wood and leave the cause alone, the patch will rot too.

We look at the whole edge of the building, not only the damaged section. Golden Sky Roofing is owned by Jose Dominguez, and you can read about him on his page. If the cause is the roof or the gutters, we point you to roof repair or gutters.

Repair a section or re-side the wall

If the damage is limited to a few sections and the rest of the wall is sound, repairing those sections is usually enough. If damage runs across much of the wall, or the wood underneath keeps failing, re-siding may be the better path. We tell you which one fits when we see the wall.

How a siding or wood repair job works

You call and describe the damage. We come out for a free on-site estimate and look at how far the damage goes, including behind the surface, where rot tends to spread past what you can see. You get a written proposal by email with the scope and price. Where the work needs a permit, Golden Sky pulls it and adds the cost to the estimate. Siding work draws on our 20+ years of experience in construction, and our team carries it from the estimate and written proposal to the last finished panel. We review the finished repair with you.

Yes. We install new siding on homes and additions. We start with a free on-site estimate and give you a written proposal.

Often yes. If the damage is limited, replacing the affected sections is enough. We look at the surrounding siding too, and tell you if the problem is wider than it looks.

Yes. Wood repair at the fascia, eaves and trim is part of our work, including dry rot.

Press the tip of a screwdriver into it. Wood that is soft or spongy under pressure is rotting. An on-site look shows how far the rot has spread.

Not when moisture is the cause. Paint over wet or rotting wood peels again, so the source of the water has to be fixed first.

Yes. We look for the source, such as flashing, an overflowing gutter or a gap at the trim, and the proposal covers what we find. If the cause is the roof, see roof repair. If it is the gutters, see gutters.
