Exterior Refresh: Siding, Gutters & Deck Repairs
We’re halfway through March, and, according to the calendar anyway, winter is almost over. While it may not yet be time to pack your coats away until next year, that doesn’t mean we can’t start assessing how winter affected our neighbors’ houses and whether that weather has hastened the need for new construction, gutter replacements, and siding repairs in Southwest Virginia homes.
But Winter, Why? How Can Reynolds Refresh Your Home This Spring?
It’s home to so many beloved holidays and some of our favorite warm drinks, but sometimes it feels like Roanoke residents are in an abusive relationship with winter.
It raises our electric bills, makes us shiver and get colds, and even vandalizes our home. Why do we even put up with it? Maybe it’s because in Spring it turns into a whole different season.
We can’t help with your electric bill and keep you warm in the waning months of the season, but we can take a look at all the ways winter has worn out your home, like:
- Exposed leaks in the roof
- Damaged siding
- Damaged decks from water, ice, and salt
- Torn off gutters
- And more!
Outbuilding Issues
Sometimes our garages, sheds, and outbuildings are the most damaged by winter weather, or at least that’s how it seems.
Sometimes they can get hit worse because they weren’t built to the same standards as domiciles, but other times it’s just that we don’t notice the damage in buildings we don’t spend every day in, so by the time we see them, the damage is severe!
Whether your garage took a beating from winter weather or you want to make it something you can get more use from, Reynolds is here for your garage renovation needs!
Siding Repair Southwest Virginia
Another way winter can damage your home is when snow gets behind your siding, melts, and refreezes, pushing the siding apart and potentially causing cracks. Siding generally lasts several decades, but your climate, exposure to the elements, product quality, and installation will all affect how long yours lasts. In Spring, one of the ways Reynolds employees spend their time is by doing siding repair in Southwest Virginia.
New Deck or Deck Remodels
If the weight of snow and ice has caused your deck to bow, you’re not alone! Snow and ice can be murder on wood. Not only can freezing water expand cracks, but common chemicals used to melt snow can also be hard on your paint job.
If it’s time to replace your deck or build on to it, we’re excited to improve your outdoor living space this spring!
Gutter Replacement SWVA
Finally, let’s look at gutters. If you’ve made the mistake of not cleaning out your gutters before winter hits, you may currently be dealing with the consequences.
Damaged gutters won’t do their job of directing water away from your home, so be sure to replace or repair them ASAP before you have bigger home improvement issues!
