During the month of July, we recently completed a remodeling project for a home located in Watertown, Massachusetts. For this home project, we used CertainTeed Monogram vinyl siding in Charcoal Grey as well as AZEK Building Products Decking and Railings.

CertainTeed is a leading North American manufacturer that we have been working closely with for many years and have been in business for over 100 years. CertainTeed offers many choices in roofing, siding, and decking. We work closely with CertainTeed because they have high-quality products that are beautiful as well as durable.

CertainTeed offers a wide selection styles and colors both in their siding and their roofing products. Vinyl siding is practically maintenance-free so it will last for years and the CertainTeed shingles more durable and has more color depth than other roofing materials.

Advantages of Vinyl Siding

There are several different options to cover the exterior of your home; some examples include paint, stucco, and cedar. However, vinyl siding is one of the more popular choices for homeowners. Vinyl siding is best known for its low maintenance demand, durability, versatility and it’s affordability. Having a vinyl exterior could increase home value and create a more appealing look as well.

Here are some advantages when you add vinyl siding to you home:

  • With vinyl siding, the material is lightweight and one of the simpler exterior claddings to install.
  • You won’t have to worry about taking care of vinyl siding as much because it doesn’t need to be scraped and painted every few years. The one thing you will need to do is simply hose down the siding and wipe with a clean cloth to maintain appearance.
  • Another advantage of getting vinyl siding installed is it will prevent heat loss in your home and save money on your energy bill.
  • Vinyl siding is more durable than other options and has the ability to withstand elements, including heavy wind and impact from hail.

How Hailstorms Can Damage Your Home

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

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.
