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.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing can be made of aluminum, copper, corrugated metal, or stone-coated steel. It's very long-lasting, durable, and energy efficient, making it a popular roofing material for both residential and commercial buildings.
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.
Membrane Roofing
Membrane roofing is easy to install and cost effective. It's used for flat or low-sloping roofs, which are largely on commercial buildings. There are three types, EPDM, TPO, and PVC, which are different types of material used to create the membrane. Maintenance includes regular cleaning, inspection for damage, and prompt repairs of any issues.
Roof Inspection
A roof inspection may be required by your homeowner's insurance, or you may get an inspection to check for damage before deciding on roof repair or replacement. During a roof inspection, a professional will look at the shingles, flashing, gutters, and more to determine the condition of the roof and provide an estimate on how long it may be until you need replacement. Some inspectors will climb on the roof for a physical inspection, while others will make an assessment from the ground. Others will use more advanced drone or infrared technologies. Regular inspections may be included in the homeowner's routine roof maintenance.
Flat Roofing
Flat roofing isn't truly flat, it's very lowly sloped and appears almost flat. It's common in commercial buildings because it's energy efficient and an easy and cost-effective way to roof a very large area. There are three types of flat roofing systems: membrane roofing, built-up roofing, and modified bitumen roofing. Flat roofs are challenging to maintain in cold weather and need to be replaced more often than sloped roofs.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
