About the Project

Roof Tune-Up and Vinyl Siding Replacement

Exterior Restoration Project in Philadelphia, PA

For this project in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, we completed a combination of roof maintenance, vinyl siding replacement, and custom door capping to improve the home’s weather resistance, curb appeal, and long-term durability. By addressing both the roofing details and the wall system, we helped restore critical areas vulnerable to water intrusion and wear.

Roof Tune-Up and Flashing Reinforcement

The project included a roof tune-up on both the upper and lower roof sections. Over time, flashings, roof penetrations, and drainage areas can become susceptible to leaks, making preventive maintenance essential.

To reinforce these areas, we:

  • Applied roofing mastic to flashings, penetrations, and roof edges
  • Installed fabric tape reinforcement for additional strength and flexibility
  • Sealed around the scupper box and drain box
  • Addressed vulnerable roof edges and transition areas

These improvements help create a stronger barrier against moisture and extend the life of the existing roof system.

Vinyl Siding Replacement and Wall Protection

The existing siding was removed to allow for a thorough inspection of the underlying wall sheathing. Proper preparation ensures that the new siding system is installed over a sound surface.

As part of the exterior restoration, we installed:

  • New house wrap for moisture protection
  • New J-channel around the door
  • New aluminum trim on the left corner
  • A new dryer vent
  • A new outlet block
  • A new light block
  • New vinyl clapboard siding
  • Proper fastening hardware to ensure long-term durability

Following proper installation practices helps the siding system withstand changing weather conditions while providing a clean, updated appearance.

Custom Door Capping Installation

To complete the project, we removed the existing metal around the entry door and installed custom-bent aluminum capping around the perimeter.

This upgrade provides:

  • Enhanced weather protection
  • Reduced maintenance requirements
  • A clean and finished exterior appearance

Custom capping helps protect exposed trim and framing while complementing the newly installed siding.
