Expert Siding Inspection in Salem, OR

A siding inspection from Blue Collar Construction NW gives Salem homeowners a clear picture of what is happening behind and across their exterior walls. Salem sits in the Willamette Valley and receives roughly 40 inches of rainfall per year, with heavy moisture concentrated between October and June. That sustained dampness puts real pressure on siding seams, flashing, and sheathing year after year. Our inspection covers the full exterior: panel joints, trim edges, caulk lines, flashing points, and any soft spots that signal moisture has moved behind the surface. We look for warping, algae growth on shaded walls, separation at seams, and signs of dry rot in the framing below. Many Salem homes, especially those built in the 1960s and 1970s, carry aging siding materials that hide damage until it reaches the structural layer. After the inspection, you get a straightforward report of what we found and what needs attention. Call Blue Collar Construction NW to schedule your siding inspection in Salem today.

Casey is extremely knowledgeable and incredibly reliable. We had a deck on our home that was failing due to the builder’s design. I was going to replace the railing on my deck. When I removed the first top board I realized the 2x8’s were pulling away from the wall. I contacted Casey from the internet. I shot him a couple of pictures and he called me back. He immediately FaceTimed me and discussed my options. He came 80 miles to get eyes on the job and shore up the deck to keep it from falling. He took care of ordering the building and fabrication for the replacement beams. A lot of contractors push off a 2 day job for larger ones and then come back to yours! He didn’t do that. He pushed out a much larger job just to help me out. All this was done in 2 days. It took a few days to get the materials but he is amazing as you can see the before and after shots. This guy has integrity and an awesome work ethic. Would you believe that I had another project on our house and I didn’t have the right nail gun to do the job so he lent me his siding nailer for 4 days just so I could finish that on my own…..who does that today???? This guy does!

I highly recommend Blue Collar Construction! He built our back deck, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. His workmanship was excellent, and he completed the project in a timely manner without sacrificing quality. He was professional, knowledgeable, and reasonably priced throughout the entire process. My husband was initially a little hesitant about having someone working at our home, but he quickly put those concerns to rest with his respectful, courteous, and professional demeanor. It’s not often you find someone who is reliable, skilled, and easy to work with. We would absolutely hire him again and recommend him to anyone looking for quality work.

We have now have a beautiful deck, thanks to Blue Collar Construction. Casey was super easy to work with from start to finish. We were not clear on exactly what would be the best choices when we started this project, but Casey quickly grasped the vision and helped us get to a result that we love. The cost was reasonable as well. Highly recommend!
