Exterior Remodeling
Decks & Patios
If you have a deck, patio, outdoor kitchen or outdoor entertainment area project planned for your home this year BJ Larson Remodeling Co. can help. We will help you plan, design and build an outdoor living space that will provide pleasure for years to come.
Many modern patio and decks design plans include an outdoor fireplace or heat source, water features such as fountains, or stone waterfalls and don’t forget to leave space in your overall design for plenty of flower pots and plant boxes.
When planning your new deck, patio or outdoor space it is helpful to think about your long term needs and the big picture of your entire outdoor space. One of the nice things about creating outdoor living spaces is that they can be done in phases.
Windows & Doors
If you are considering upgrading your older energy inefficient windows and door to high energy efficient windows and doors to lower your energy home energy costs in Minneapolis and St. Paul, MN BJ Larson Remodeling Co. can help.
Gaps and cracks around old windows and doors and older window glass allows a high level of thermal conduction. Replacing your old windows and doors with high efficiency windows and doors help reduce the thermal conduction of your windows and doors and reduce the overall energy costs of your home.
If your home is 10 years or older, with today’s escalating home energy costs, it may make sense to re-evaluate the energy efficiency of your home windows, glass sliding doors, patio doors and outside doors. . New energy efficient replacement windows and doors can help save you money year round.
Siding
Is your home siding looking uneven, warped or weather worn? Are you concerned about the energy efficiency of your home siding? BJ Larson Remodeling can help.
Older home siding can become weathered with exposure to the climate changes and elements, such as rain, hail and cold. The siding on your home creates a water shield to protect underlying structural components from moisture and water damage. If your home siding is showing signs of weather wear and tear it might be time to look at siding replacement.
Home energy efficiency is a major concern for homeowners. If yourMinnesotahome was built during the new home construction boom the home builder might have not paid a great deal of attention to creating an energy efficient house. Unfortunately when energy costs are cheap new construction builders pay scant attention to the long-term energy costs of homes. A home that is 10 years or older might have ineffective insulation underlying the siding and lead to high home utility costs year round.
When selecting a siding contractor you’ll want to make sure that your home siding project budget addresses both energy efficiency and exterior appearance.
Roofing
Is it time to re-roof your home? Signs that your asphalt roof is ready for roof replacement include: the asphalt shingles are warping, the corners of the roof shingles are curling, the overall layout of the asphalt shingles is more textured, your are finding a deposit of sand or roofing material grains in your gutters and downspouts or ceiling water stains in the interior of your home.
Unfortunately asphalt singles have a finite life span and eventually it becomes time for roof replacement. Exposure to rain, Hail damage, sun exposure and time wear away the integrity of asphalt singles and make it necessary to replace your roofing shingles to protect the underlying wood components of the roof and attic insulation or your home.
Worn roofing shingles have decreased water shielding ability a can quickly lead to roofing structural problems.
