Miscellaneous Products and Services

While you may not necessarily think about items like fascia, soffits, snow guards, pet doors or color matching when you call us about your roofing, siding, windows, or doors needs, we offer these services as important options with the work we do. Here’s why:

Soffits

Also known as eaves or rafters, the soffit is your roof’s overhang, more specifically material installed to cover the underside of the overhang which allows for proper ventilation and provides a more finished appearance. Soffits keep out pests such as birds, bats and rodents, and are essential to the health of your home, not to mention your energy bills, diverting roof heat from the sun or rising heat from within that can build up in attic space. Trapped heat can cause excessive humidity leading to mold and mildew issues, or cause the breakdown of roof shingles causing ice dams and water leaks. Soffits come in a variety of colors, styles and finishes that can be color matched or coordinated to your siding or other exterior materials. Let us take a few minutes to inspect your soffits to help prolong the life of your home.

Fascia

Just as gutters and soffits are essential to the life of your home, it’s the fascia that holds each item together which can become worn, broken or otherwise damaged over time. This weakens the connection and diminishes the job everything is intended to do. In that respect, the way a home functions isn’t too far off from the workings of the human body, where all parts must work together for an optimal outcome.  Our add-on services include assessment and replacement when necessary.

Snow Guards

If you have a metal roof, a big part of its job is to prevent heavy snow and ice pack from building up and to protect you from the dangers of climbing up there all the time with a snow rake. It does this by the nature of its smooth surface, which causes the snow to slide off.

At the same time a snow guard may be necessary to retain snow and ice so it doesn’t “avalanche” from one surface to another—impacting property and landscaping and even injuring people below. A snow guard is built to separate accumulating snow and ice into smaller sections, reducing chances for damage when thawing begins. Let’s talk about options that make your life easier.

PetSafe Doors

We love animals and so do you. New England is among the most pet-friendly regions in the country. Making their lives—and yours—easier is something we aim to do. If you’ve ever considered a pet door, which gives your pet immediate access to the yard when you aren’t there and saves you the trouble of monitoring, opening and closing the door when you are, we offer the Freedom Pet Door from PetSafe with many of our Provia Doors.

Color Matching

When it comes to the many components of your home’s exterior—roofing; siding; windows; doors; soffits; fascia—the aesthetics that combine to add up to that all-important curb appeal can’t be overlooked. Sometimes homeowners feel daunted by the options out there, needing expert guidance when it comes to choosing the right dominant (siding) color and contrasting (roofing; doors; windows; and trim) colors, but that’s what we do. And we do it so your home’s exterior makes precisely the kind of statement you want it to.
