Roofing & Siding in Tacoma, WA
Protecting a home starts at the top—and the exterior envelope plays a critical role in resisting Tacoma’s rainfall, wind, and moisture-heavy climate. At Mega General Construction, we provide roofing and siding services throughout Tacoma, WA, focusing on quality materials, code-compliant installation, and long-lasting performance. Whether it’s a full replacement, targeted repair, or exterior upgrade as part of a larger remodel, we install each layer with the conditions of the Pacific Northwest in mind.
From classic cedar siding to high-efficiency asphalt shingles and composite panels, our work enhances both the curb appeal and the resilience of your property.
Roofing Installation and Replacement for Tacoma Homes
Roofing is more than shingles. It’s a full system of underlayment, ventilation, flashing, and protection layers. We provide roof installation and replacement services for residential structures across Tacoma using materials suited for steep-pitched roofs, low-slope designs, and architectural detailing.
Asphalt Shingles and Architectural Roofing
Most Tacoma homes use architectural asphalt shingles due to their affordability, performance, and range of styles. We install shingles with ice and water barriers at eaves, proper ridge ventilation, and high-quality underlayment to resist wind-driven rain.
Roof Deck Repair and Plywood Sheathing
During replacements, we often uncover damaged or rotted roof sheathing beneath the existing materials. We replace compromised decking with code-approved plywood or OSB, fastened according to city building standards to maintain structural integrity.
Flashing, Vents, and Penetration Seals
Chimneys, skylights, plumbing stacks, and attic fans all require custom flashing work. We install step flashing, counter flashing, and pipe boots to prevent leaks around these critical areas. Tacoma’s heavy rainfall makes precision flashing work essential.
Siding Installation for Moisture Management and Curb Appeal
Siding defines a home’s exterior appearance—but it also protects the structure from the region’s wet weather and wind exposure. We install siding systems that include water-resistive barriers, flashing integration, and durable, low-maintenance materials that perform well in the Tacoma climate.
Fiber Cement and Composite Siding
We install fiber cement siding such as HardiePlank for its moisture resistance, fire rating, and long lifespan. Composite siding options also offer texture and performance without the maintenance needs of traditional wood.
Cedar and Wood Siding for Traditional Homes
In Tacoma’s older neighborhoods, wood siding is often preferred for its character. We install cedar lap siding and shingles with proper back-venting and water barriers to protect from moisture intrusion and decay.
Panel Siding and Board-and-Batten Systems
Modern homes and infill properties often use panel-style siding, installed in horizontal or board-and-batten patterns. We align joints, install trim, and use hidden fasteners where possible for a clean finish that complements contemporary architecture.
Roof and Siding Repairs After Storms or Age-Related Damage
Tacoma homeowners frequently deal with aging roofs and siding systems that develop leaks, peeling, or warping. Our repair services target these issues directly, restoring your home’s protection without a full replacement when it’s not yet needed.
Leak and Moisture Intrusion Repairs
We trace the source of roof leaks or siding damage and replace compromised materials without disturbing the surrounding system. This often includes resealing flashing, replacing shingles or panels, and correcting water path errors behind siding.
Storm and Wind Damage
High winds and driving rain can lift shingles or crack siding boards. We respond to storm-related calls and conduct thorough inspections to identify both visible and hidden damage before recommending targeted repairs or full upgrades.
Trim and Fascia Restoration
Over time, fascia boards, soffits, and corner trims rot or pull away from siding. We replace and repaint these critical pieces to maintain both function and appearance across the home’s exterior.
Weather-Ready Systems Built for Tacoma Conditions
Tacoma’s weather challenges every layer of a home’s exterior. Our roofing and siding installations are designed to resist local conditions, from roof pitch adaptations to drainage planning behind siding systems.
Moisture Management Systems
Behind siding, we install house wrap, rain screen battens, and drainage planes to prevent trapped water. These components are key to extending the life of wood and composite siding in high-rainfall areas like Tacoma.
Roof Ventilation and Insulation Integration
Proper roof ventilation reduces moisture buildup in attics and improves energy efficiency. We design systems with ridge vents, soffit vents, and proper insulation transitions to reduce the chance of ice dams and attic mold growth.
