When choosing someone to remodel your home, you want a company that understands how important the home is to you. It’s where you and your family have shelter and feel safe. Chesapeake Roofing is a roofing, siding, and windows contractor in Riva, MD, specializing in exterior remodeling and renovations.
Replacing Windows and Doors
Windows and doors have more impact on your house than you may realize. One of the biggest problems with older windows and doors is decreased energy efficiency. The seals aren’t as strong and may not be insulated, leading to outside air creeping inside. This makes your heating and cooling systems work harder to have a comfortable temperature in the home.
Windows
If you want to replace the existing ones in your home, we recommend using vinyl windows. They provide the same energy efficiency as wood windows but are easier to maintain and cheaper. You don’t have to worry about rot or bugs burrowing into vinyl windows and don’t need to repaint or refinish them.
When you have vinyl windows, they hold up for years to come. They still look as appealing as when you first put them in. Vinyl comes in a variety of different colors and finishes. Some options are convincing doppelgangers for wood and ensuring you get the look of wood windows without the negatives.
Doors
Your home’s entry door is meant to make a statement. It’s one of the first impressions visitors get when coming to your house for the first time. We offer doors in many materials, including wood, fiberglass, and metal. Intricate woodwork is a standout visual option, fiberglass is known for holding up well, and metal is the most economical option.
A storm door is a good addition to the entryway. It goes outside the doors you use most, providing extra protection. Storm doors insulate better in case there are leaks in the main door and also protect it from weather. In good weather, you can open the regular door to get extra light through the storm door glass or air from a screen door.
Patio doors are another common feature in Riva homes. They come in many varieties, depending on your preference for ease of opening and look. Sliding doors are the most popular option, allowing everyone to glide the door open to go outside. We also offer french doors on a hinge that fold up accordion style.
Repair Your Siding
Siding is important for protecting your home from weather and the elements. Severe rain, snow, and wind can all damage your siding. In rare cases of hail, siding is especially susceptible. Your siding wears out throughout the years, too. It’s constantly exposed to weather, getting weaker with each passing year.
You may not know how the siding was placed if you bought an older house. If the previous owner had work done and placed the siding incorrectly, it’s more likely to incur damages. It’s also susceptible if you don’t perform regular upkeep and maintenance.
Our experts can help determine if siding repair or replacement is the best choice for your home. Just because your siding is damaged doesn’t mean that all of it needs replacing. You must contact us as soon as possible after you notice the damage. Damaged siding left on your home lets moisture in and causes more problems.
