Remodeled basement with new windows, shelves, walls, and a fireplace in the middle of the room

Basement Remodel with New Windows & Door

Our team at Three Sons was recently contacted to help with a homeowner’s basement remodel. They wanted to replace their home’s basement and transform the space from an outdated afterthought into a room where they could come relax and enjoy a warm fire in the winter months. Our team got right to work on renovating the space into a beautiful new recreation space. If you’d like to learn more about this basements transformation, keep reading below to learn more:

The Remodeling Process

The first thing our team did upon beginning the basement remodel was discuss their wants and needs for the new space. They wanted to completely reimagine the space by installing new doors and windows, as well as replacing the walls and shelving in the space. After we learned what they were looking for from the remodel, we began to tear down the old paneling and remove the old windows and doors to begin the remodeling process.

After we had removed the old windows, door, and paneling from the room, we began by installing plaster & board walling in the room. While we were installing the new walls in the room, we also created built-in shelves flanking the fireplace for pictures, books, or anything else the homeowners want to add. After that was complete, our team began to tackle the window replacement, using new Harvey Classic windows to fill the same space that the old windows occupied. After the window installation was completed, we needed to replace the old door to the room, and then the remodel was complete!

The transformed basement looks fantastic, and the homeowners were thrilled with their new recreation space. From enjoying a warm fire during the winter, to having a quiet place to come read and relax after a long day, this room is sure to get plenty of us after this remodel!

Colorful Fall Leaves

Fall Home Maintenance

Fall has arrived in New England, and with it comes a whole new set of home maintenance concerns and needs. Preparing your home for the winter is essential in Massachusetts, where our falls are rife with falling leaves and the winters with frost & snow. If you need to learn a bit more about how to get your home prepared for the winter season, take a look at our blog for more information!

Check Your Windows & Doors For Drafts

Our team at Three Sons recommends that the first thing you do to get your home ready for the winter is to examine all your windows and doors for drafts. A drafty window or door can often be easy to miss unless you are checking for it, but it can quickly run up your energy bills if left unaddressed. You can quickly check for drafts in your windows or doors by taking a look at the frames of both and examining them for any gaps. Another quick test you can do is holding a lit candle or incense by the frames of both and checking to see if the flame is moved by the air. If the flame is being blown around, it is obvious that there is a significant draft. Seal up any drafts by using weatherstripping, or reaching out to our team at Three Sons to assist you with installing new replacement doors and windows on your home.

Check Your Roof (& Gutters) For Debris

Another piece of your home’s exterior that you should examine for damage each fall is your roof, and gutter system. Check your roof for any damaged shingles. Damaged shingles run the gambit, from shingles that are slightly warped around the edges, to shingles that have broken clean in half or fallen from your roof. If you find that your home’s roof is damaged in any way, have it repaired before the winter in order to protect your home from potentially expensive repairs.

Another area that you should examine is your gutters. Your home’s gutters should be cleaned twice a year, once during the fall and once during the spring, in order to ensure they are working properly. If neglected, clogged gutters can easily lead to ice dams, which can, in turn, damage your roof by causing extensive water damage. Be sure that you clean your gutters before the debris freezes in order to protect your home from ice dams.

Medford, MA Siding Replacement

Medford, MA Siding Replacement

Our team recently replaced the siding on this Medford, MA home. The home’s old siding was a bit outdated and in need of an update so they reached out to our team over at Three Sons Door & Window to assist with their siding replacement needs! We discussed our array of siding replacement options with our homeowners, and after a bit of discussion, they decided they wanted to install new CertainTeed Monogram vinyl siding on their home’s exterior. If you’re interested in learning more about why they chose this beautiful siding option, keep reading our blog for more information!

CertainTeed Monogram Vinyl Siding

After a bit of deliberation, these homeowners decided that the best option for their home’s exterior was CertainTeed’s Monogram vinyl siding which is a great decision! Let’s explore a bit about what makes Monogram such a fantastic siding option. 

The first reason that many homeowners love Monogram Vinyl Siding is for the aesthetic benefits it provides to homeowners in search of an option that will boost the curb appeal of their home. Monogram siding is molded from real cedar boards, and with CertainTeed’s patented True Texture technology, these siding boards resemble real cedar boards. If you’ve been searching for a siding option that will bolster your home’s curb appeal, Monogram vinyl siding is a fantastic option!

The next reason that many homeowners love and trust Monogram vinyl siding is that it provides nearly unmatched durability. As most Massachusetts’ homeowners know, we live in one of the windiest states in the entire country, meaning it is important to have a siding option that can stand up to those windy days. CertainTeed’s Monogram vinyl siding is rated to withstand wind load pressures of up to 220mph, meaning your siding will be able to withstand even the windiest days, which is great news for Massachusetts homeowners. In addition to the wind resistance, Monogram vinyl siding is also Class 1A fire-rated, which is the highest fire safety rating available!

Finally, homeowners & contractors alike love Monogram vinyl siding because after the installation process, it is virtually maintenance-free. It will never need to be re-painted, and the most maintenance you will likely need to complete is cleaning the siding if there is a significant amount of grime build-up. In that case, you simply need to wash it with a bit of soap and water and your siding will look brand new! If you’re in search of a siding material that will keep your home looking fantastic with very little upkeep required on your end, CertainTeed vinyl siding is a truly great option!
