Roofing Services
Shingles
The shingles on your home are both protective and decorative. These overlapping pieces of asphalt, wood, clay, slate, metal, or composite materials create a waterproof barrier that protects your home from the elements. They are available in multiple colors and include 3-tab, architecural, or luxury varieties. Asphalt shingles are the most common and budget-friendly, while clay, wooden, or composite shingles can add character and style to your home.
Tile Roofing
Tile roofing is attractive, durable, and environmentally friendly. Tiles are made from slate, clay, or concrete, and are an excellent choice for buildings in hot areas or those exposed to salt air near the ocean. However, tile is a more expensive roof material and is also very heavy.
Waterproofing
Roof waterproofing can provide an extra layer of protection against leaks in case shingles or other parts of the roof get damaged. Professional roofers will lay a base sheet or membrane under the usual underlayment and shingles. They'll also check the flashing around the vents, chimney, and skylights. If you have a flat roof, liquid membranes can be applied to improve waterproofing.
Additional Services
Plumbing
Plumbing maintenance can help prevent leaks, water damage, and high water bills. It can also prevent minor problems from escalating into major repairs. Check exposed pipes and appliances for leaks regularly, keep drains clear, and be careful what you flush to avoid clogs. It's also important to have your water heater serviced and septic system inspected regularly. Protect your plumbing during cold weather is also a must.
Retexturing
Retexturing can help repair and rejuvinate stucco on the outside of your home, and can add visual interest and hide imperfections inside. Retexturing stucco can allow you to smooth it, making cleaning and maintenance easier. During exterior retexturing, the professional will power-wash the home, apply a new stucco base coat, and then apply the finish. Inside, retexturing walls involves removing any existing texture, repairing the drywall as needed, and applying compound, spray, stipple, or velvet texture. After it dries, the wall can be primed and painted.
Foundations
Your home may need foundation repair if the outside of your home shows crack in the bricks or foundation, separation around the garage door or windows, or wall rotation. Inside your home, if you notice misaligned doors and windows, cracks in floors or sheetrock, or uneven floors, you may need foundation repairs. Foundation repair involves adding supports and raising sunken portions of the home. Sometimes you can simply stabilize the foundation where it currently is and prevent further damage.
Driveways
Different types of driveways require different kinds of maintenance, but they all need upkeep to maximize their lifespan. Concrete and asphalt driveways need to be resealed every few years; brick driveways need weed removal, and most driveways need regular powerwashing to remove dirt, sand, oil, and other debris.
Masonry
Masonry involves using bricks or stones and mortar to build walls, chimneys, and more. Over time the materials may break down, and you'll need to hire a professional to repair the structure. Masonry repair consists of filling cracks in the wall, repairing leaning walls, and replacing protruding bricks. It's important to address any masonry issues right away so they don't compromise the structure of your home.
Concrete
Concrete walks and patios provide an easy-to-use, non-slip surface for guests on your property. Concrete needs less maintenace than other materials and is extremely durable, and stamped concrete can boost curb appeal by imitating the appearance of other materials. With a concrete patio you can avoid the frequent staining and sealing that wood decks need, and installation is quick and affordable.
Flooring
The wide variety of colors and materials available for home flooring allow you to design your home to reflect your lifestyle and personality. Whether you choose hardwood flooring, engineered hardwood, laminate, luxury vinyl, tile, or even carpet, your flooring can be beautiful, durable, and perfect for your personal space.
Painting
Exterior and interior painting can refresh and protect your home. Exterior painting not only increases curb appeal, but it can also extend the life of siding and help prevent termite, mold, and sun damage. Interior painting is an easy way to personalize your space, add appeal, make your walls cleaner, and hide marks and repaired damage.
Cleaning
Cleaning and washing your home is generally done with power washing. Power washing removes harmful elements like mold and mildew, increases curb appeal, and can reveal any necessary repairs to your siding. While you're cleaning, consider hiring help with yard cleaning and junk removal as well to fully refresh your exterior!
Kitchens
Kitchens are the heart of the home, and kitchen design can make or break the functionality of the space. Professionals can help you create a new kitchen layout, build out custom kitchens, and help you choose everything from kitchen cabinets to countertops.
Bathrooms
Well-designed bathrooms can provide an oasis for you to enjoy 'me time' while also having the function you need to get ready for the day quickly. A bathroom remodel can involve changing the layout, replacing sinks and counters, improving storage, swapping a tub for a shower or vice versa, and much more.
Doors
Doors protect your home from both intruders and weather while also providing beauty and style to your property. Entry doors should have a solid core, strike plates with long screws, and reinforced glass. Sliding glass doors and patio doors should have reinforced glass, secure locks, and tight seals. A professional can assess, repair, or replace both exterior and interior doors.
Fencing
Fencing and gates add privacy and security, show clearly where the property line is, and provide children and pets a safe place to play. Fencing and gates can be made of wood, metal, vinyl, or composite materials. Fencing maintenance includes regular cleaning and repair of any damage, and, for wood fencing, regular restaining and resealing.
Demolition
Demolition gets old structures and materials out of the way so professionals can install something new. Interior demolition might include removing walls, cabinets, appliances, countertops, and more. It's important to work with professionals who have the tools and expertise to do demolition quickly and safely, without damaging other structures or underlying electical or plumbing systems.
