Exterior systems
The exterior works as one system or fails as one.
Siding, gutters, windows, paint, decks, and fencing all meet the roof somewhere, and water finds the joint that was planned last. K. Simon Construction carries these exterior lines alongside the roofing work and runs them to the same standard.
Service lines
What exterior work do we take on?
Six lines beyond the roof itself. Each one is assessed and planned the same way as the roof: documented conditions, a written scope, and a closeout record.
Siding and trim
Wall cladding and the trim that closes it: assessed for condition, water management, and where it meets the roof edge, before any material gets named.
Gutters and drainage
Where the roof's water actually goes. Gutters, downspouts, and discharge are checked as part of the drainage picture, not bolted on as an afterthought.
Windows
Openings are the envelope's weak points. Window work starts with the condition of the flashing and the wall around the unit, not just the glass.
Painting
Exterior painting done as protection first, appearance second: surface condition documented, preparation written into the scope, and the coating matched to the substrate.
Decks and patios
Structures attached to the building get the same discipline: how the ledger meets the wall, how water drains away, and what condition the structure is really in.
Fencing
Fence work planned like everything else here: the line, the grade, and the posts documented before a written scope, so the finished fence matches what was agreed.
Same discipline as the roof
Planned like the roof, because it meets the roof
Exterior work is not a side business with looser rules. Every line above moves through the same three checkpoints as a roofing project.
Documented conditions
The existing condition is recorded before recommendations: what is failing, what is aging, and what is fine as it is.
Written scope
The work is defined on paper before it starts, so you can hold the build to it. Changes get documented and explained, not improvised.
Closeout record
The project ends with a record of what was installed and how it was verified, the same closeout standard as a roof project.
Where the exterior meets the roof
The roof is where most of this starts
Exterior symptoms often trace back to the roof edge, and roof projects often surface siding, gutter, or trim work. Start where the water starts.
Residential roofing
Repair, replacement, and restoration for homes, decided from a documented inspection.

Assessment, repair programs, and replacements planned around occupied operations.

After hail or wind: documentation that separates storm damage from ordinary wear, roof and exterior alike.

Not sure whether the problem is the roof, the gutters, or the wall? That is exactly what an inspection is for. Request a roof inspection and the exterior conditions that touch it get documented in the same visit.
