The type of window installation that's best for your home depends on the age, condition, and exterior materials of your house and existing window. Full-frame window installation includes a new window, frame, sill, and internal and external trim. The new window is sealed and insulated during the install. Pocket installation involves replacing the window and keeping the current frame, and is fast and affordable.

Window replacement entails removing the old window and installing a new one. Consider window replacement when the seals start to leak or fail, there's visible glass damage, condensation forms inside or between panes, or the windows are hard to open and close. You can also replace windows to improve insulation, energy efficiency, and UV protection.

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.

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.

Some contractors offer handyman services, giving you the confidence that a professional is taking care of your home repair needs, such as drywall repair, painting, gutter cleaning, installation of doors or accessibility aids, and more. Before you have a handyman do specialized work, like handling water damage, structural repair, or electrical, be sure they are properly qualified and insured.

There are multiple types of home carpentry, which involves using wood to build everything from framing to cabinets to small decorative details. A carpenter can help you with custom woodworking, finish carpentry, cabinetry, new wall construction, and more.

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 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.

Home additions can add significant livable space to your property, but they are not DIY projects. Professionals can help you with bedroom or sun room additions, adding a floor to your home, or indoor patio additions. Be sure you choose an experienced contractor with appropriate licensing and insurance to get the job done right.

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.

New construction can be a great way to get the exact home layout and materials you want, and it's also a good way to add to your livable property by building an addition. Single-family home construction allows you to work directly with professionals to pick out every detail of your new property, and remodeling uses new construction to improve or add to your home.
