Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What exterior services do you offer?


We handle exterior upgrades that improve both curb appeal and long-term performance—siding, trim, entryways, porches, patios, and weatherproofing. We also build custom features like pergolas and architectural accents when the home calls for something more tailored.

Do you offer roof work or gutter installation?

We provide light roofing repair or installation when it’s part of a broader remodel, along with trim work and gutter replacement. We don’t operate a standalone roofing department or manage insurance claim work.

Can you match existing exterior finishes?

Yes. We source materials to match or complement what’s already on the home—vinyl, Hardie board, and stone veneer included—so the update looks intentional, not patched together.

Do you work in occupied homes?

Yes. Even on exterior projects, we set clear work zones and keep the site organized and safe to minimize disruption.

Do I need a permit for exterior work in River Forest?

Often, yes. Exterior work can trigger permit requirements, setback rules, and HOA guidelines. We manage the process and ensure the scope stays compliant with local code.

How long does the permitting process take?

Permitting depends on the municipality and scope. Many permits are issued within a few weeks, but some can take up to 45 days depending on review timelines.

How long do typical exterior projects take?

Most exterior projects run about 3–5 days depending on complexity and size. We provide a clear schedule during estimating so expectations are set early.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes—licensed and fully insured, including general liability and workers’ comp.

Featured Outdoor Living Project

Outdoor Living Upgrade with Custom Pergola

Project Summary

A basic patio area was upgraded into a custom covered pergola designed specifically around the home, the patio footprint, and the client’s preference for a permanent built-in solution.

Challenges

The homeowner wanted a pergola that would fully cover a 24' x 16' patio without relying on a prefabricated gazebo. The structure needed to span the patio properly, tie into the home cleanly, and direct rainwater away from the finished outdoor space.

Solutions

To achieve the required span and slope, a SkyLift-style support system was used at the house connection point, allowing for a wide custom header. The structure was finished with cedar-wrapped posts and header details, and the metal roof was pitched toward the gutters to guide runoff into the river rock drainage area.

Results

The finished project delivered a custom 24' x 16' metal roof pergola with a more permanent, polished appearance. The space now functions as a covered outdoor extension of the home, with improved comfort, weather protection, and visual appeal.
