Exterior Services in Our Home County of Lafayette

Lafayette County is home base for Tekton Exteriors. Our office is on University Avenue in Oxford, and our crews work every day in neighborhoods around town and out into the county's hills and farmland. This page covers home exterior solutions in Lafayette County, MS, the local conditions we design around, including moisture, storms and red clay soils, and how to find pages for the communities we serve across the county.

Moisture and Algae

Wooded lots and humid summers leave many roofs and north-facing walls damp for long stretches. That encourages black algae streaks on shingles and green mildew on siding. Algae-resistant shingles, good attic ventilation, trimmed overhanging limbs and periodic gentle washing keep surfaces healthier.

Storms and Wind

Spring and fall storm lines regularly bring hail and straight-line wind through North Mississippi. We install roofs with manufacturer-specified nailing and sealed starter courses, and after storms we provide free inspections and help document damage for insurance. See our Oxford storm and emergency roof repair page.

Red Clay and Drainage

The county's red clay soils drain slowly and erode easily on slopes. Water dumped at the base of a downspout can wash out beds, stain foundations and pool against slabs. Seamless gutters with well-placed downspouts and extensions, and in some cases French drains, move runoff where it belongs. On hillside lots, we also look at how patios, walkways and retaining walls direct water so a new hardscape project does not create a new drainage problem.

Communities Across the County

Most of our work is in and around Oxford, and we also serve Taylor, Abbeville and other communities. Services include roof repair and replacement, siding, gutters, windows and doors, and outdoor living. Because our office is close by, follow-up visits and warranty questions are easy to handle.

Common Questions

How do I know if I need emergency repairs?

Active leaks, missing sections of roofing, a tree on the house or exposed decking need prompt attention. We can make temporary weatherproofing repairs and schedule permanent work afterward.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most residential roof replacements in the county are finished in one to two days, depending on size and complexity.

Do you work with insurance companies?

We document storm damage, provide a written scope and can meet with your adjuster. You remain in control of your claim.

What is the best low-maintenance siding?

Fiber cement and insulated vinyl both require little upkeep. Fiber cement may need repainting after many years, while vinyl needs only occasional washing.
