Although not much renovation and roofing work is being done during the colder months of the year, it’s a great time to get a jump on planning those spring outdoor jobs that you need to be done around your home. Getting started now will allow you to do such things as taking your time with designs, doing careful material selection, and it will help you get on a contractor’s schedule before it quickly fills up once the warmer weather breaks. So, if you know for sure you want some outdoor roofing or renovations work done in the spring, be proactive and start working on that while the weather is still cold out.
Here are some of the types of spring outdoor work that are best to plan ahead of time to beat the warm weather rush:
Roof Replacements
If you had roof problems before the harsh winter months hit, then you may have even more after it’s over. The bigger the roofing job you want to be done in the spring, the more time it will take to properly plan. Such is the case with older roof replacements. If your roof is over 15 – 20 years old it is always recommended to get an inspection done on it before big roof problems start happening frequently.
Siding Installation
Are you tired of painting your home every few years? Then new vinyl siding may be a dream come true for you and your home. It looks great and stays virtually maintenance-free for many years. This can be a big job if you have a larger size home so preparing for it in advance is always recommended.
Window Replacement
There is never a bad time to get your windows replaced. Modern windows help save money on heating and air conditioning bills. They also will greatly improve any home’s looks.
Home Additions
It’s an absolute must to prepare in advance for any type of additions that you want to put on your home in the spring. This is because there is so much planning that goes into a project this size. You have the design phase, choosing such things as fixtures and appliances, and permits must be obtained too. Early planning of home additions will also help your contractor better adhere to your budget requests.
