Decks

A nice deck or patio promotes the full enjoyment of your backyard space. It increases your home’s value and gives you extra room. Plus, of all possible home renovation projects, a deck will always be one of your most inexpensive options. In a nutshell, putting a deck or patio on your home is a great project idea! And at Jay-Bilt, we’d love to help you with it.

We’ll Find the Perfect Deck for Your Home

It can be tough to decide what type of deck or patio is best for you. If you’re remodeling an existing deck or patio, do you want to redo the same design or create something different? If you’re starting from scratch, how big do you want your new deck? What types of materials should you use?

All sorts of considerations must be made when it comes to constructing a modern outdoor space, and our architects and designers will be there to help you every step of the way. Generally speaking, the deck or patio you choose should come down to four main considerations: Your area’s climate, expected usage, desired look, and budget.

Once we sit down and discuss your deck or patio needs, we can assess each of these considerations and recommend the perfect deck or paver patio for you.

We Use Only the Best Quality Materials

At Jay-Bilt, we offer a wide variety of decking materials, including, Wolmanized wood, cedar, Trex, Azek, brick pavers, flagstone, and stamped concrete. From these options, we can tell you what will stand up best to the Southeastern MI climate, what’s most cost-effective, and what styles will look best with your home. No matter what you choose, we know you’ll be impressed with our expertise, professionalism, and craftsmanship.

Roofing

In Southeastern MI, your roof needs to withstand snow, sleet, and hail during brutal winters. Throughout the summers, vicious thunderstorms can have equally damaging effects. Torrential rain, unrelenting winds, and downed branches can wreak havoc on roofs. Even intense summer heat—so typical of Southeastern MI—will warp and crack your roofing over time.

Of course, another concern of many homeowners when it comes to damaged roofing is appearance. And indeed, a faded, sagging roof with bare areas and curled and cracked shingles will make an otherwise lovely home look terrible.

But a damaged roof is more serious than a neighborhood eyesore. A damaged roof left to its own devices can lead to serious water damage, critter invasion, and even dangerous collapses. Being smart and frugal about home investments is wise, but don’t wait until there’s a leak in your roof to invest in a replacement.

How to Tell if It’s Time for a New Roof

We understand it can be difficult to know if you actually need an entirely new roof. The following signs will let you know:

• Warped, cracked, or buckling shingles
• Missing shingles and bald spots
• Algae or moss growth
• Sagging and drooping in the surface of your roof
• Water stains or drips in the attic
• Loose shingles, leaking, or decay around vents, pipes, and chimneys
• Rot, mold, and other marks of moisture
• Sunlight coming through anywhere in your attic
• The age of your roof—most roofing needs to be replaced once every 20 to 30 years

We’ll Find the Best Roof for You and Your Budget

All professionals will tell you that you first need to consider weather conditions specific to your area before choosing a type of roofing. Jay-Bilt roofers have been expertly installing roofs in Southeastern MI for over 20 years, so we know what types of weather Southeastern MI roofs need to stand up to.

Jay-Bilt specializes in complete tear-off roof replacement. At your in-home consultation, one of our roofing experts will examine your current roof and recommend which type of roof is best for your location, budget, and desired appearance. We install everything from long lasting, asphalt shingle and cedar shake to slate and metal roofing.

It’s important to know that when hiring a roofer, they’ve got to be able to install proper venting and insulation as well. Jay-Bilt can install any type of vents. From ridge and gable vents to pot and soffit vents, we’ll make sure your roof and attic breathes properly and lasts as long as possible. We also install the best quality fiberglass or cellulose insulation to ensure maximum home energy efficiency.

Porches

Installing a well-suited porch on your home can create a number of benefits for you and your family. Imagine a comfortable and inviting space to welcome guests, added natural light in the interior of your home, increased home value and improved home security.

Additionally, if you’re looking for a lone renovation project that will modernize the exterior of your home in one fell swoop? A new porch is it. Not to mention, it’s the perfect place to kick back and relax. Add a few electrical outlets, some cozy outdoor furniture, and a ceiling fan, and you’re all set!

The Best Materials for Your Desired Porch

Jay-Bilt will install the perfect porch for your home with maintenance-free materials, such as Azeck, Trex, brick, and concrete. Traditional wood products are also viable options, and a variety of trims can be added, including vinyl siding, lattice, or paint.

We’ll work with your design preferences, the current architecture of your home, your budget, and what type of maintenance you’re looking for to find the perfect style and design for your home.

What Type of Porch Are You Looking For?

There are several porch styles to choose from.

• Front Entry Porches or Porticos – “Portico” is the Italian word for any type of porch, but when it comes to modern homes, porticos—or front entry porches—are generally small, covered porches that are as big as a typical entryway. Though small, porticos add immense curb appeal and can also provide shelter from rain and the elements when welcoming guests.

• Open or Farmers Porches – Like a portico, this type of porch faces the street and is open with supportive pillars and railings. The key difference is that farmers porches have larger decks and often extend across the entire front of the home or even wrap around.

• Screened or Three Season Porches – In Michigan, an open porch on the back of your home can be wonderful. But as Michiganders, we also know that open porches can only be comfortably used during certain months of the year. Not that any of us would give up our beautiful Michigan seasons, but this does make the idea of a screened in porch particularly attractive. You’ll be able to use it comfortably from spring to fall and enjoy the added benefits of fewer bugs, more shade, and easier maintenance.
