Ocean State Home Renovations LLC | Decks & Railing & Roofing in North Kingstown, RI 02852

It depends on the extent of the damage. We start with a thorough, free inspection. For isolated wind damage, we can often perform targeted repairs and replace individual shingles to match your existing roof. However, if the wind has caused widespread lifting, tearing, or if the roof is near the end of its lifespan, a replacement might be the more cost-effective, long-term solution. We'll always provide an honest assessment and recommend the best option for your home and budget.

Great question. For our North Kingstown climate, we often recommend pressure-treated lumber, composite decking, or tropical hardwoods like Ipe for their resistance to moisture, rot, and insects. Proper construction is key: we use corrosion-resistant fasteners, ensure adequate drainage and ventilation under the deck, and apply high-quality sealants. For railing, aluminum or composite systems hold up well against salt air. We'll guide you through the best options for a beautiful, low-maintenance deck that lasts.

The same humid, damp conditions that cause roof algae accelerate wear on wooden fences. Without protection, wood absorbs moisture, leading to warping, rot, and mold growth. Our weatherproofing service involves cleaning the fence, making any necessary repairs, and applying a high-grade stain or sealant. This creates a protective barrier that repels water, blocks UV rays, and inhibits algae and mildew growth, significantly extending your fence's life and reducing maintenance. It's a smart, preventative investment for Rhode Island homes.
