Why the edge matters
Corners, windows, doors, roof-wall intersections, fascia, soffits, and trim boards are common places for water to find a weak path.
Signs worth checking
Loose panels, open seams, peeling trim, stains near windows, damp wall areas, and repeated leaks near the same exterior side deserve a careful look.
A better quote looks at the connection
Instead of pricing one visible piece blindly, the contractor should explain how the siding, trim, and roof-edge details are supposed to keep water out.
