FAQs
As a Dearborn Heights homeowner, how do you address common roof gutter overflows and valley leaks?
We address these common local issues with a thorough diagnostic approach. For gutter overflows, we inspect for proper pitch, debris buildup, and inadequate sizing, often recommending seamless gutter systems with larger downspouts for improved water handling. For persistent roof valley leaks, we examine the underlying flashing integrity and sealant, as these are typical failure points in our climate. Our repair focuses on durable, code-compliant solutions that manage Michigan's heavy rain and snowmelt, preventing future water damage to your home's structure and interior.
Can you handle both the masonry and roofing work for a project like a new patio with an adjoining exterior wall?
Yes, absolutely. As a full-service general contractor, we manage all phases of such projects. Our masons will construct a durable, level patio and any necessary retaining or exterior walls using proper local frost-depth footings. Simultaneously, our roofing crew ensures the adjacent house wall and any overhanging eaves are properly sealed and flashed where they meet the new structure. This integrated approach prevents common issues like water intrusion at the connection points and ensures a single point of responsibility for the entire build, from foundation to finish.
Do you work on historic homes in the Detroit area, and what is your process for historic restoration?
Yes, historic restoration is a specialty we've cultivated since 1963. Our process begins with understanding the home's architectural period and materials. For masonry, we use tuckpointing and brick matching to preserve character. For roofing and siding, we source or fabricate materials that maintain historical accuracy while integrating modern weatherproofing techniques. We are experienced with the specific requirements of Detroit's historic districts and prioritize repairs that protect the home's integrity, using techniques like chimney rebuilding and masonry sealing that are both authentic and durable for Michigan winters.
