Q&A
As a carpenter in Roos, how can G M S help prevent ice dam damage on my roof?
Ice dams often form due to heat escaping from the attic. Our carpentry services include expertly sealing attic bypasses, installing proper ventilation, and adding insulation to keep your roof's surface cold and uniform. This preventative work stops snow from melting unevenly and re-freezing at the eaves, which is the root cause of ice dams and the subsequent water damage they create.
My gutters overflow every spring in Roos. Can a carpenter fix this, or do I need a roofer?
Overflowing gutters are often a combined issue. As carpenters and roofers, we assess the entire system. The solution might involve carpentry work to properly realign or replace fascia boards that hold the gutters, combined with roofing expertise to ensure the gutter size and slope are adequate for Michigan's heavy rainfall and snowmelt. We handle both trades to provide a complete, functional fix.
What makes G M S's carpentry approach different for Roos homes compared to a general contractor?
Our carpentry is specifically informed by decades of experience with Roos homes and Michigan weather. We don't just build or repair; we build and repair to withstand local conditions. This means selecting materials that resist moisture and freeze-thaw cycles, and employing construction techniques—like specific flashing details or overhang designs—that proactively manage water runoff from your roof to protect your home's structure long-term.
