  • Can I Install My Own Windows?

    Please do not do this to yourself unless you have professionally installed hundreds of them before. Our phone rings daily with requests from people who have attempted installing them themselves or trusted their best friends, brothers, and bowling partners who can do it for them. We have seen many entire walls ruined by this happening. Yes, it can be expensive having them professionally installed. However, buying your windows from a big box store, installing them improperly, etc., is simply a recipe for long-term disaster for your home.

  • How Long Does a Roof Usually Last?

    This is a tricky question because many factors are involved. Most standard asphalt shingles carry about 20 years if installed correctly, with normal non-storm damage wear. We have other types of shingles that are designed to last 50 years! These shingles cost more but less than you think.

  • Should I Get an Asphalt or Metal Roof?

    Full disclosure, we carry and install both. Many want metal because of its longevity behind them. This is valid. Also, snow tends to slide right off them, and some like their look. If the answer is longevity only, certain shingles are now designed for up to a 50-year life expectancy at a much lower price than a metal roof. Either way, we have you covered!

  • Should I Get a Pocket Replacement or a Full Frame?

    Full frame will always be the best solution for 99% of window replacement jobs. They do cost considerably more to install. If you are working on a budget, pockets will often work. When you see the gimmick TV ads for cheap windows, they are always pocket replacements, no matter how big the company is with the ad. Make sure you have a consultant with a lot of experience to help you make this significant investment. Research and have pointed questions to feel that person out. Doing it the wrong way can be devastating.

  • What Are the Best Shingles To Put On My Home?

    That is a very loaded question. Several manufacturers carry various levels of quality. It returns to the adage, "You get what you pay for." A couple of pieces of advice. First, Consumers Report Magazine recently did extensive studies on all the manufacturers (our consultants will have a page of synopsis of this study when they visit your home); it is an excellent unbiased look into the industry. Second, always beware of a company that only carries one line or from a single manufacturer. With Michigan's four seasons, many products better serve different roofing projects. Stick with a professional company that will give you many options for all your roofing, siding, windows, and doors projects

  • Which Replacement Windows Are the Best?

    We must say that Andersen Windows holds the top-of-the-line name for its longevity and quality. But many other companies offer very high-quality windows and many different price ranges. Our consultants average over 20 years of experience in the window industry; let them help you put the right action plan for you and with you!

  • Why Does the Siding on My Home Appear To Be Warped?

    In some cases, it just is due to age and elements. In many cases, it could be from poor installation. There are too many scenarios to discuss on this page, but they are very common. In some rare cases, it could be from critters getting into the mix. In any case, anything can be repaired or replaced.

  • Why Is Having Good Siding Important for My Home?

    For most people, aesthetics play a significant role in replacing siding. This is very valid because you will be looking at your home several times a day. It also helps with the curb appeal for the value of your home when selling. If your old siding is "shot," there may also be concerns with the structural integrity of certain parts of your home if the components are not adequately shielded from climate and other elements.

  • Why Is Roofing So Important?

    Believe it or not, this is one of the most common questions on the internet about roofing in general. Arguably, it is the most essential part of the structure of your home. Obviously, it keeps elements and critters from entering your home, which is especially important here in Mid-Michigan. We could elaborate for hours on this, but let our consultants answer the pointed questions on this topic for you.

  • Why Should I Have a Complete Tear-Off on My Roof Replacement?

    Many reasons. First, inspecting the decking without tearing the shingles off is impossible. Recovering bad decking could drastically shorten the life of your new roof and lead to health issues related to mold or other spores between the decking, underlayment, and shingles. Second, it would affect the warranty laid out by the manufacturers, in many cases voiding it altogether. Third, when investing in a new roof, you want the most extended possible life out of it. A considerable part of that is installing new flashings. It is difficult, nearly impossible (to do it correctly) to achieve this without removing the shingles. We do complete tear-offs on all our roofing projects.

  • Will New Siding Increase the Value of My Home?

    Absolutely! Not only will it give value to your home, but new siding may also be the deciding factor for many even to entertain looking at your house in the first place, remember you are competing with hundreds if not thousands of other homes on the MLS, don’t disqualify potential buyers form the very first picture they see!

  • Will New Windows Increase the Value of My Home?

    Absolutely! Like siding, the curb appeal is obvious both driving by and by real estate listing pictures. Also, don’t forget the added energy efficiency to your home to give you a better energy bill and more daily comfort while in your home.
