Q&A
How do you handle broken gate hinges and loose fence fasteners, common issues in Elmira?
We replace broken hinges with heavy-duty, weather-resistant models and tighten or replace loose fasteners with corrosion-resistant screws. Our team also checks the entire fence for stability during repairs, ensuring your gate swings smoothly and your fence stands firm against local weather conditions.
What types of deck materials do you offer for construction and repair?
We work with both wood and composite materials. For new decks, we help you choose based on durability and maintenance. For repairs, we match existing materials to blend seamlessly. Our design services ensure your deck fits your home and lifestyle, whether you’re in a neighborhood near Elmira College or closer to the Chemung River.
Can you install a new roof over an existing one, or does it have to be removed first?
We typically recommend removing the old roof to inspect the decking and ensure proper installation. This prevents future issues like leaks or uneven surfaces. For shingle or metal roofs, we follow local building codes and can work with homes near the Arnot Mall or in the Southside area.
