MOORE, Okla. - TelAve -- According to the Oklahoma-based roofing and exterior contractor, even minor cracks or gaps in siding and roofing can lead to serious winter damage — including water intrusion, mold growth, and expensive structural repairs.

"People often think winter is the slow season for home maintenance, but it's actually when hidden damage from spring hail or fall storms turns into expensive repairs," said Greg Derr, owner of Triple Diamond Construction. "A quick inspection now can save you thousands come spring — and it gives homeowners peace of mind when the temperatures drop."

Winter's Hidden Impact on Home Exteriors

Oklahoma's weather is notorious for dramatic swings between warm and freezing conditions. That temperature fluctuation causes materials like vinyl siding and asphalt shingles to expand and contract — a process that can worsen small cracks or gaps if left unchecked.

"Moisture seeps into those weak spots, freezes overnight, and expands," Derr explained. "That's what causes cracked siding, warped panels, and leaks inside the walls. It's completely preventable with early maintenance."

Triple Diamond Construction recommends that homeowners:

• Inspect siding and roof edges for visible cracks or gaps
  
  
• Clean gutters and downspouts to prevent ice buildup and overflow
  
  
• Trim overhanging branches that can damage roofs or siding during storms
  
  
• Seal windows, vents, and exterior trim to block moisture and heat loss

Real Results From Local Projects

Triple Diamond Construction's recent work in Midwest City and Moore showcases how proactive maintenance and full exterior upgrades can save homeowners time and stress. Both homes featured complete roof replacements and new siding after storm damage earlier in the year.
