Storm-related siding damage typically has distinct characteristics that differ from normal aging. Look for sudden, widespread issues appearing after a major weather event. Hail damage often appears as small, pockmarked craters or random dents across the surface. Wind damage can cause siding to buckle, become loose, or pull away from the house entirely. You might also see cracks that radiate outward from a single point of impact. Most homeowners’ insurance policies cover damage from such “acts of God.” Our team can provide a professional storm damage assessment and help you document everything with the detailed reports needed to support your insurance claim.

While a small, isolated leak can sometimes be repaired, you should consider a full gutter replacement if you notice multiple signs of systemic failure. These include numerous cracks or rust spots, especially at the seams or along the bottom of the gutters. You should also be concerned if you see gutters that are pulling away from the fascia board, signs of water damage or peeling paint on your siding, or frequent clogs that are difficult to clear. If your gutters are sagging or visibly improperly pitched, causing water to overflow, it is a clear sign that a new, professionally installed system is the most cost-effective long-term solution.

We understand that storm damage requires an immediate response to prevent further issues like water intrusion and structural damage. At Tekton Exteriors Mississippi, we prioritize storm damage calls and aim to be on-site as quickly as possible, often within 24-48 hours. Our first step upon arrival is to secure your home by providing temporary protection, such as tarping a damaged area, to prevent additional water from getting inside. We then conduct a full assessment to document all damage for your insurance claim and work with you to outline a clear, efficient plan for the complete restoration of your home’s exterior.

Matching existing siding for a repair can be challenging due to weathering and fading from sun exposure over the years. However, our team at Tekton Exteriors Mississippi is highly skilled at finding the closest possible match in both color and profile. We have access to a wide range of materials and can often source the original manufacturer if the siding style is still in production. In cases where a perfect match isn’t possible, we will be transparent with you and discuss creative solutions, such as strategically placing the new siding or using the repair as an opportunity to create a beautiful accent feature. Our goal is always to ensure the final repair is as seamless and aesthetically pleasing as possible.
