If your Pearl home is showing signs of exterior fatigue—granule loss on south-facing shingles baked by afternoon sun near I-20, warped siding near damp low zones off Old Fannin Road or near the Pearl River tributaries, clogged gutters choked with pine needles and oak leaves from mature backyard trees, or drafty windows struggling under Mississippi’s punishing summer humidity—you’re not just facing cosmetic wear. You’re confronting a quiet but accelerating threat to your home’s structural integrity, indoor air quality, and long-term equity. In this corridor—where summer heat indexes exceed 105°F for weeks on end, seasonal thunderstorms unleash 65+ mph wind gusts, and hail events strike with alarming regularity (as seen in the March and October 2024 storms)—exterior deterioration moves faster than many homeowners realize. A single missing shingle can escalate to attic mold in under 72 hours; a cracked siding panel can allow chronic water intrusion behind walls, leading to hidden rot and costly framing repairs; and outdated windows can inflate cooling costs by 18–25% during Rankin County’s long, humid summers. And if you’ve recently weathered a storm, the mental burden of coordinating roofers, gutter technicians, and siding crews—while navigating a complex insurance claim with State Farm or Allstate—is overwhelming. You don’t need a patchwork of subcontractors passing blame. You need Tekton Exteriors: Pearl’s only full-service, licensed, and insurance-specialized exterior contractor who treats your home like family.
We don’t just fix isolated failures—we engineer integrated, system-wide resilience. As a veteran-owned, Mississippi-rooted company, we’ve repaired and renovated over 310 homes across Pearl since 2021—from historic ranches near Downtown Pearl and Flowood borders to newer builds off Lakeland Drive and in the Highland Village area—and we understand the specific challenges of construction here: expansive clay soils that swell and shrink with seasonal moisture, creating foundation shifts that strain deck footings and gutter alignments; high ambient humidity that promotes mold growth behind fascia and soffit; and local building code requirements, including Rankin County’s 2023 wind uplift updates for homes within one mile of I-20 or MS-25. Our team holds elite industry credentials—GAF Master Elite® (top 3% of U.S. roofers), Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, James Hardie Elite Preferred Installer, and HAAG-certified roof inspectors on staff—but more importantly, we’re your neighbors. Our crews live in Pearl, Flowood, and Brandon; our project managers volunteer at Pearl High athletic events and First Baptist Church outreach programs; and we sponsor local Little League teams each spring. Whether you need emergency storm mitigation, routine exterior maintenance, or a full curb-appeal transformation ahead of resale, Tekton brings transparency, craftsmanship, and true local accountability—backed by a 5-Year Workmanship Warranty, full manufacturer coverage, and our ironclad 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.
Time is not a neutral factor in Pearl’s high-risk weather corridor—especially along the I-20 hail belt, where homes saw 4+ measurable hail events between 2023 and 2024 alone. A loose ridge cap today can become a ceiling water stain by tomorrow. A sagging gutter section can pull fascia boards away from the structure, inviting carpenter ants and moisture-laden air that spawns mold in wall cavities—often undetected for months. And if you delay post-storm documentation beyond 30 days, most major insurers in Mississippi—including State Farm, Allstate, and USAA—will question the timeline of damage and potentially deny coverage under “failure to mitigate,” citing policy clause 4.2.3 on timely repairs. That’s why Tekton Exteriors offers same-week, completely free exterior evaluations for Pearl homeowners, with no sales pressure, no hidden fees, and no obligation. Our inspection is forensic, not cursory: we deploy drone-assisted roof scans to detect hidden hail dents in valleys and behind ridges—damage often missed during ground-level assessments; thermal imaging to map moisture intrusion behind siding and around window frames; gutter flow and slope verification using laser levels to confirm proper ⅜-inch-per-foot pitch; and structural ledger board inspections using moisture meters and visual probes for homes over 15 years old, particularly those near creek beds or low-lying areas off Old Fannin Road. You’ll receive a comprehensive Exterior Health Report with timestamped photos, itemized scope of work, and a transparent, line-item quote—all delivered digitally within 24 hours, formatted for easy sharing with your insurance adjuster.
At Tekton Exteriors, we reject the fragmented, one-trade model that leaves homeowners juggling multiple contractors and mismatched warranties. Your roof, gutters, siding, windows, and deck are not isolated components—they function as a unified defense system against Central Mississippi’s extreme climate, and they must be designed and installed to work in concert. That’s why we offer seamless, bundled exterior solutions using premium, climate-optimized materials and code-compliant methods refined over hundreds of Rankin County projects. For roofing, we install GAF Timberline HDZ and Owens Corning Duration shingles—both with 130 mph wind warranties and StainGuard® algae resistance critical for our humidity—paired with Ice & Water Shield in valleys, eaves, and penetrations, and installed using 6-nail high-wind patterns and reinforced starter strips to meet Rankin County’s updated uplift specifications (Section R905.2.5, 2023 Code Addendum). Our siding specialists expertly install James Hardie Fiber Cement with proper Z-flashing, ¼-inch expansion gaps to accommodate thermal movement, and back-primed cut edges to prevent edge swelling—essential for homes in damp zones near the Pearl River floodplain. For homes with existing LP SmartSide, we retrofit with advanced moisture barrier systems and ensure acclimation protocols are followed—a frequent oversight in Pearl’s rapid-build neighborhoods. Gutters are crafted from 26-gauge seamless aluminum with hidden hangers, laser-verified slope, and oversized 4″x5″ downspouts—paired with LeafGuard® or GutterBrush® systems to handle Pearl’s heavy pine and oak debris—and include downspout extensions to divert water at least 8 feet from foundations, a non-negotiable in our expansive clay soils. Windows and doors are sourced from Pella, Andersen, and ProVia—all Energy Star® certified with argon-filled Low-E glass to reduce solar heat gain and lower cooling loads during Mississippi’s 120+ cooling-degree days annually. And our decks, built with Trex Transcend® or TimberTech AZEK, feature RainEscape® under-deck drainage systems, powder-coated aluminum railings, and Titan soil anchors to ensure stability in shifting terrain.
The result is not just aesthetic enhancement, but engineered longevity. Every project includes Tekton’s 5-Year Workmanship Warranty—covering labor across all trades, fully transferable if you sell—and full manufacturer warranties (e.g., GAF Golden Pledge® up to 50 years, James Hardie 30-year non-prorated). We handle debris removal, final walkthroughs, and provide a post-installation care guide tailored to Mississippi’s climate—including seasonal maintenance tips, storm-prep checklists, and guidance on preventing common Pearl-specific failures like fascia rot from improper gutter pitch or deck ledger failure from inadequate flashing. Bundling services saves 6% to 11% on labor and logistics, and eliminates the finger-pointing that occurs when leaks develop at system interfaces. With Tekton, there’s only one point of contact, one contract, one timeline, and one accountable team from start to finish. One contractor. One warranty. Zero coordination headaches.
Pearl homeowners face distinct exterior threats shaped by geography, housing stock, and regional weather patterns. Many homes built in the late 1980s through early 2000s—particularly in neighborhoods off Lakeland Drive, Old Fannin Road, and near Highland Village—are now reaching the end of their original roof and siding lifespans, just as Mississippi’s storm intensity increases. South-facing roof slopes suffer accelerated granule loss and thermal cracking from relentless afternoon sun exposure—especially on homes oriented east-west near I-20; fascia and soffit rot is rampant where undersized gutters or missing drip edge allow water to drip behind trim—a frequent issue in older builds lacking modern flashing sequences; deck ledger boards on homes over 20 years old often show hidden moisture damage at the wall interface,
particularly where decks were attached without proper flashing or corrosion-resistant fasteners; and vinyl windows installed before 2010 frequently exhibit seal failure, leading to foggy glass and drafts that strain HVAC systems during Rankin County’s long cooling season. Even newer builds can suffer from installation oversights—such as improper step flashing at roof-wall transitions, inadequate attic ventilation in steep-pitch homes, or gutters installed with flat or reverse slope—problems that remain invisible until interior water stains appear on ceilings or walls. Delaying action only invites secondary damage: mold growth in wall cavities, termite infestation in softened wood, or foundation erosion from chronic poor drainage—issues that often cost 3 to 5 times more to remediate once discovered.
Tekton Exteriors is not a franchise, a regional contractor passing through, or a call-center operation routing jobs to out-of-state subs. We are built in Rankin County, for Rankin County. Our founder, a U.S. Navy veteran, lives in Pearl; our office is just 4 miles from Pearl High School; and our crews reside across the greater Jackson metro, with deep ties to local schools, churches, and civic organizations. This isn’t marketing—it’s accountability. You won’t be handed off to a dispatcher 200 miles away. When you call Tekton, you speak directly with a project manager who knows your street, your neighborhood’s common construction era, and your home’s likely vulnerabilities.
Our credentials reflect both technical excellence and local trust: we hold Mississippi Contractor License #127839 (verified, active, and in good standing), carry $2 million in general liability and full workers’ compensation insurance (certificates available upon request), and maintain elite industry certifications—including GAF Master Elite® (a distinction held by fewer than 3% of U.S. roofers), Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, James Hardie Elite Preferred Installer, and HAAG-certified roof inspectors on staff. We’re BBB Accredited with an A+ rating and verified Veteran-Owned Small Business certified through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Since 2021, we’ve completed 317 exterior projects in zip codes 39208 and 39282—with a 4.9-star average from 152 verified Google reviews and zero BBB complaints or license violations.
Unlike roofing-only contractors—or large regional firms that subcontract portions of your project—Tekton delivers true exterior integration. This distinction matters profoundly when damage occurs at system interfaces: Is the leak behind your siding caused by a roof valley failure, a gutter overflow, or missing step flashing at the wall? With fragmented contractors, you get three teams blaming each other while your walls get wetter. With Tekton, one accountable team owns the entire system—and the fix. This integrated approach delivers measurable benefits: bundling roof, gutter, and soffit/fascia replacement in Pearl averages $17,900 with Tekton versus $19,800+ when hiring three separate vendors—a 9.6% savings—plus the invaluable peace of mind of a single 5-Year Workmanship Warranty covering all labor, fully transferable if you sell your home.
We also specialize in insurance claim navigation where others fall short. While many contractors focus only on roofing claims, Tekton assesses and documents full-exterior storm damage—roof, siding, gutters, windows, decks—ensuring your claim reflects the complete scope. Our HAAG-certified inspectors produce professional, insurer-ready reports; we attend adjuster meetings with you; and we file supplement requests when initial estimates omit secondary damage (e.g., gutter overflow compromising fascia or wind-driven rain behind windows). Most clients pay only their deductible. Unlike Watkins Construction & Roofing—who excel at roofing but lack full-exterior claim coordination—we ensure no damage is overlooked, maximizing your recovery. Beyond claims, we offer homeowner-first policies you won’t find elsewhere: $0-down financing with approved credit, 24/7 emergency tarping with response in under 75 minutes, military and first-responder discounts (10% off any service), pre-listing curb-appeal packages, and preventative maintenance memberships that include bi-annual gutter cleanings and roof inspections. When you choose Tekton, you gain a lifelong partner in home protection—not a one-time vendor.
We proudly serve all of Pearl—Downtown, Lakeland Drive corridor, Highland Village, Old Fannin Road neighborhoods, and areas near Pearl High and the YMCA—along with nearby communities including Flowood, Brandon, Ridgeland, and parts of Jackson’s southeast metro. Proximity matters: our crews live within 12 minutes of most Pearl addresses, enabling same-day emergency response for active leaks or storm damage—no waiting 3 to 5 days for a “regional team” to arrive from Jackson or out of state. Our local dispatch ensures you speak with a real person who knows your area, not a call center hundreds of miles away.
We invest in our community because we live here. We sponsor Pearl High Chargers football and track, partner with Rankin County Habitat for Humanity on build days, and offer free exterior safety checks for seniors each spring. We’re familiar with Pearl’s microclimates: homes near the Pearl River tributaries require extra moisture mitigation planning; properties on higher ridges face greater wind exposure; and older builds often lack modern roof ventilation or proper flashing sequences. We stay current on Rankin County permitting requirements—including 2024 updates to deck footing depths (now 30 inches in expansive soils) and wind uplift zones—and work closely with local HOAs on architectural reviews. When storms hit—and in Mississippi, they always do—you need a contractor who is already here, already prepared, and already trusted. That’s Tekton Exteriors.
At Tekton, transparency is foundational. Too many contractors obscure pricing behind vague estimates, hide warranty exclusions in fine print, or rely on pressure tactics to close deals. We do the opposite: every quote is line-item detailed, every warranty digitally registered and explained, and every project documented with timestamped, geo-tagged photos. Whether you’re comparing local providers, filing an insurance claim, or simply curious about material lifespans in our humid climate, this guide provides clear, honest answers—no fluff, no sales spin.
We also offer free 15-minute phone consultations with our Pearl-based project managers. Every home here has its own story—age, roof pitch, orientation, storm history—and we’re here to help you protect it. Ready to take the next step?

Realistic averages for Pearl homes (2,000–2,400 sq ft), based on 127 projects completed in 2024: Roof replacement with GAF Timberline HDZ ranges from $14,600 to $22,200; full-wrap James Hardie siding installation runs $20,800 to $33,500; seamless gutters with LeafGuard® protection cost $3,300 to $6,200; replacing 10 mid-tier Pella windows averages $10,300 to $16,800; and a 14’x18’ Trex composite deck with under-deck drainage falls between $18,700 and $29,100. Bundling services delivers measurable savings—roof, gutter, and soffit/fascia replacement together averages $17,900 with Tekton versus $19,800+ with fragmented contractors. Insurance often covers storm-related work minus your deductible, and we provide $0-down financing with approved credit.

A bundled project—roof, siding, gutters—on a typical Pearl home takes 18 to 25 calendar days, depending on scope, weather, and permitting. Roofing typically requires 3 to 5 days (scheduled early to protect the structure); siding installation takes 7 to 10 days (performed in morning hours to minimize material expansion in afternoon heat); and gutters are installed last, in 1 to 2 days, to avoid damage during other phases. We build 3 to 5 buffer days into timelines for Mississippi’s wet season and prioritize weather-resistant work first—e.g., emergency tarping, roof replacement, gutter installation—before proceeding to siding or windows. For active leaks or storm emergencies, we complete mitigation within 24 hours. You’ll receive a detailed project timeline with milestone dates and daily text updates throughout the process.
Absolutely—and this is a core Tekton strength. Watkins excels at roofing claims but typically does not assess or document damage to siding, gutters, or windows—a critical gap, as insurers will deny coverage for these elements if not documented upfront. Tekton conducts full-exterior assessments using HAAG-certified inspectors who verify impact depth, document secondary damage (e.g., gutter overflow compromising fascia), and produce professional reports accepted by all major carriers. We coordinate directly with your adjuster, attend meetings with you, file supplement requests when needed, and manage the entire repair process—including debris removal and final inspections. Most clients pay only their deductible. As a pro tip, call us before your adjuster visit—early documentation prevents denials. [Get your free storm damage inspection] to start the process correctly.
Late February through April is ideal for most exterior projects: temperatures range from the 50s to mid-70s, humidity is lower, and materials like shingles and siding install optimally with minimal thermal expansion. Fall—September through early November—is also excellent, though we avoid peak leaf season for gutter and deck work. Summer can work for roofing (heat helps seal shingles) but is less ideal for siding installation or painting due to extreme expansion and curing challenges. Winter projects are possible if dry, though cold slows adhesive curing. That said, storm damage repairs should never wait—our emergency team mobilizes 24/7, because in Pearl’s hail corridor, timely mitigation is often the difference between full coverage and a denied claim.
Yes—and ours exceeds industry norms. All materials carry full manufacturer warranties: GAF roofs up to 50 years with Golden Pledge®; James Hardie siding with 30-year non-prorated coverage; Pella windows with lifetime limited warranties; and Trex decks with 25-year fade-and-stain protection. Crucially, Tekton backs all labor—roofing, siding, gutters, windows, decks—with a 5-Year Workmanship Warranty, fully transferable if you sell. This is broader and longer than many competitors, who often limit labor warranties to roofing only (2–5 years) and exclude damage from “secondary causes” like gutter overflow. Our warranty is insured, digitally registered, and includes no hidden exclusions—just straightforward, accountable coverage. We believe your peace of mind is as important as the installation itself.
Our expert team transforms homes across Mississippi with the same exceptional craftsmanship that made us a trusted name in Houston, Texas. At Tekton Exteriors, we bring precision, quality materials, and local expertise to every project — from roofing and siding to outdoor living and full home renovations.
