Professional home remodeling can be costly upfront, but in the long run can add equity as well as increase property values. Understanding the process, timeline, and investment involved helps you make informed decisions about your home improvement projects. Whether you’re considering new siding, roofing, windows, screen rooms, or decks, having clear answers to your questions is the first step toward a successful project.
We specialize in comprehensive exterior remodeling services that enhance both the beauty and functionality of your home. Our core services include siding installation, roofing replacement, window upgrades, screen room construction, and deck building. As an LP SmartSide Master certified installer and James Hardie installer, we work with premium materials that deliver lasting performance and curb appeal.
Our expertise extends to innovative solutions like Tesla Solar Shingles, where we serve as an Authorized Tesla Solar Shingle Installer. We also install motorized screen rooms that transform outdoor spaces into comfortable, pest-free environments you can enjoy year-round. Each service we offer combines traditional craftsmanship with modern materials and techniques, ensuring your investment delivers both immediate satisfaction and long-term value.
Project timelines vary based on scope and complexity, but we provide realistic schedules from the start. A typical siding project for an average-sized home takes approximately 7-10 business days, weather permitting. Roofing projects generally complete within 2-5 days, depending on the size and pitch of your roof. Window replacement projects can range from one day for a few windows to a week for whole-house installations.
Screen room and deck projects require more time due to foundation work and custom construction elements. These projects typically span 2-4 weeks from groundbreaking to completion. We maintain clear communication throughout every project, providing updates on progress and addressing any timeline adjustments promptly. Our team knows how to cut costs without cutting corners while maintaining efficient project schedules.

Gutters play a crucial role in protecting your home by directing rainwater away from the foundation, preventing erosion, and reducing the risk of water damage to siding, windows, and landscaping. Properly functioning gutters help preserve your home’s structural integrity and can prevent costly repairs down the line.

Choosing the right siding depends on factors such as your budget, desired aesthetic, climate, and maintenance preferences. We recommend scheduling a consultation where we assess your home and discuss options that best fit your needs and style.
Regular inspections of your home’s exterior help catch potential issues early and prolong the lifespan of your siding, roofing, gutters, and windows. We recommend a thorough inspection at least once a year, preferably before and after the harsh weather seasons.
