Our Services in Connecticut

Roof installation, roof replacement, roof repair and roof maintenance for single family homes. Most roofs here are asphalt shingle, and most of them fail at the flashing, the valleys and the roof penetrations. That happens long before the field wears out. An inspection tells you which one you are facing. Repair keeps a sound roof going. Replacement is the answer once the deck has failed.

Every roof estimate starts with an inspection of the roof deck, the underlayment, the flashing and the attic ventilation. A new asphalt shingle roof installed over a wet deck does not last. Ridge vents, drip edge and valley detail are priced inside the job, never added later as an extra.

Deck building, deck repair and deck replacement for Connecticut homes. A deck is framing before it is anything else. What decides whether a deck is still solid in twenty years is the footings, the ledger and the fasteners underneath. Pressure treated framing and composite decking are both available. The scope depends on what is left of the structure, not on what is on top.

Loose railings, soft boards or a bounce in the deck are the signs owners see first. Underneath is usually a rotted ledger, a cracked post base or hangers driven with the wrong nails. The work stops at the damage line and goes back the way the deck was built new.

Interior carpentry and exterior carpentry, window installation, window replacement, door installation, door replacement and home addition framing. Carpentry covers the parts of a house that rot, stick, leak or never fit right. Trim, casing, baseboard and doors inside. Fascia, soffit, corner boards and exterior wood outside. Installation, repair and restoration all fall under one contract. The crew that frames an addition also hangs the doors.

Rotted wood is cut back to solid framing before any new material goes on top. Covering rot with fresh trim looks fine for one season, and the same repair returns the following year. Window and door openings are checked for square and for water damage at the sill and header.

Interior painting and exterior painting for residential projects. Paint fails because of what sits underneath it, not because of the paint itself. Chalked siding, loose caulk, peeling edges and bare wood push a new coat off early. Walls, ceilings, trim, doors and full exteriors are covered. One room, one floor or the whole house. The prep comes first, and that is what makes it last.

Prep is the part that takes the time and makes the coat last. Surfaces are scraped, sanded, caulked and primed before the first coat goes on. Floors, fixtures, windows and landscaping stay covered until the job is done. Color matching happens before the crew arrives, and not on a ladder.
