Roofing Services
Roof Replacement
A roof replacement involves fully removing the shingles and underlayment on your roof to reveal the decking. The decking will be inspected and repaired, if needed, and then new underlayment will be laid to protect the decking from water. Next, the shingles are put on, which may consist of asphalt, metal, composite, or another material. You can also choose between 3-tab, architecural, and luxury shingles, based on your budget and preferred style.
Roof Repair
If your roof is damaged or leaking and is less than 15 years old, a roof repair can be more practical than full replacement. Common repairs include replacement of shingles and/or fascia boards, patching leaks, and fixing improperly installed flashing.
New Roof
During new roof installation, your home gets a new underlayment and shingles over the roof decking. You can choose between 3-tab and architectural shingles, which can be made of asphalt, wood, composite, metal, or another material. New roofs last 20-30 years for less expensive materials, while slate, copper, or tile can last 50 years or longer.
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.
Gutters
During gutter installation, professional roofers will remove the old gutters and downspouts from the eaves and brackets and check for damage such as rotted or failing boards and facia. From there, they will measure for new gutters, install them, and put on new downspouts and elbows. Finally, they'll clean the area and leave your home ready for the next rainstorm!
Additional Services
Siding
Home siding generally lasts 10-15 years. You may need to hire a professional to fix or replace siding if you notice cracks, warps, blisters, bubbles, fungus, or mold. Repairs or replacement may also be warranted if you have severe fading or signs of internal moisture on walls. You can also upgrade your siding to improve insulation and reduce heating and cooling bills or to transition to a material that is easier to maintain.
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.
Electrical
Your electrical system is the backbone of your home, powering major systems and appliances, and it's important to ensure your electrical system is safe and updated. Consider getting regular electrical inspections, updating electric panels, and investing in energy-saving appliances and lightbulbs. If you have an older home, you may need to update the entire electrical system to keep your family safe.
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.
Interior Walls
Interior walls create privacy in your home, support the house structure, and provide a place for wires, pipes, and other systems. Interior wall construction can create new spaces and entails framing, insulation, and drywall. Interior wall repair is often simply a matter of patching drywall damage, sanding, and painting the area to match the surrounding wall.
Decks
An outdoor deck adds function and value to your home. There are many styles of decks, including attached, wrap-around, detached, multi-tier, and a swimming pool or hot tub deck. Decking can be made of wood, composite materials, or PVC. Deck building can be complex depending on the materials and style, so it's a good idea to hire a professional.
HVAC
Your heating and air conditioning, or HVAC system, helps keep your home comfortable and safe. Annual HVAC maintenance is essential to keep your system running efficiently and to catch concerns before they become costly repairs. A professional can clean coils, elements, and drains and inspect the unit for problems. It's also a good idea to get regular duct cleaning to keep air clean and moving smoothly.
Remodeling
Home remodeling allows you to restructure the space inside your home in a way that works best for you. You might hire help with a bathroom remodel, a kitchen renovation, or a basement remodel. Perhaps you're interested in an open floor plan, or adding a bedroom or sunroom. It's important to work with qualified pros who can help you create and execute a clear plan for your renovation.
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.
Garages
Garages not only protect your car from the weather, they also provide storage, keep your car safer, and add value to your home. They don't take much upkeep other than cleaning and occasional maintenance on garage doors. Professionals can help you with garage installation, upgrades to your storage or floor surface, and more.
Basements
Finished basements add more space to your home and boost your property value. A basement can provide space for a home theater, an office, workout space, or an entertainment area. It's important to hire professionals for basement remodeling to ensure you get proper permits, effective waterproofing, and safe installation of fixtures and appliances.
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.
