How Hailstorms Can Damage Your Home

Posted by admin on July 1, 2016

Hail can cause serious home damage. The main areas where hail can affect your home is your roof, siding, and windows. After any hailstorm, you should look around your home and inspect any damages that may have occurred.

When you are inspecting the area around your home, you would see large dents or cracks on your gutters. Hail can also fracture the shingles on your roof and create leaks.

Strong hail can peel the paint off the side of your home and expose the wood underneath and also create cracks.

During a hailstorm, large pieces of hail could possibly break through the window glass and cause property damage.

It’s important that when you do find damage on your home to contact your insurance company as soon as possible, most homeowner’s policies cover hail damage. Once everything is taken care of with your insurance, you should contact a local home repair company to help fix the damage.

When to Remodel Your Bathroom

Posted by admin on June 13, 2016

Now may be the time to begin thinking about your next home remodel project. It is usually recommended to anyone who would like to remodel their kitchen or bathroom to start making plans now. Some projects will require an architect to draw plans. These types of projects are great for Fall/Winter months when outside work cannot be done. Starting a bathroom remodel project can be beneficial long term if you plan on selling your home and a new bathroom can increase property value. When you know you have the budget to invest in a new bathroom, there are a couple notes to remember leading up to the big project.

The first step is to evaluate your existing bathroom space; it might be a good idea to take some notes on certain sections you would like to improve on.

The next step is to create a bathroom renovation budget. The bathroom is one of the most highly utilized areas in a home, so plan accordingly. Setting a budget will help guide your project and you will be able to figure out what you can spend.

Depending on how large your bathroom project is, you should plan out how much time it will take to complete everything. You may think a new bathroom only takes a couple days; however, you should always give the project more time in case you run into any problems.

It’s important to be fully prepared for these types of large remodel projects. If you are looking to start a bathroom project, we can help. Contact Three Sons Window & Door at 781-899-6353 for more information.

Considering a New Roof?

Posted by admin on June 3, 2016

If you are a homeowner, it’s always important to make sure to keep your roof in good condition. Installing a new roof on your home is a very big decision. Here are a few things to consider when deciding to replace your home’s roof.

One of the most important benefits is the visual/curb appeal of a new roof. In New England, we typically advise an architectural shingle. Three Sons Window & Door offers roof shingles from CertainTeed or GAF.
How old is the existing roof? If installed properly and with good materials, an asphalt shingle roof should last 20 to 25 years, sometimes longer. It also depends on how many shingle layers you have and if it was properly ventilated. If you’ve lived there for many years and don’t know when the roof was last replaced, consider having a roof inspection.
Installing a new roof will increase your property value and will make it easier to sell your home when you’re ready.
Your existing roof could be so worn that there is deterioration and you could begin to experience water damage and other problems. A sag in a roof would indicate that the sheathing underneath is rotting. Pay close attention to the valleys, which are one of the most important parts of your roof because it’s where snow and rain flow to the gutters. A new roof will help eliminate those problems.
A certified roofing installer like Three Sons Window & Door will be fully insured as well as carry all the certifications required to install a roof correctly. We offer free estimates for all roof quotes.
