Bathroom remodeler in Macomb County, MI

Brick ranch homes in Warren and Eastpointe were built with low-pitched roofs that move water slowly toward the eaves. When gutters clog with leaves or debris, water backs up and sits against the fascia board, which softens and eventually cannot hold the gutter spikes. Once the fascia fails, the gutter pulls away from the roofline and water runs directly down the brick face and toward the foundation. Replacing both the fascia and the gutters together is the correct fix.

Lake-effect systems drop heavy, wet snow that is denser and heavier than inland snowfall, adding more weight to the roof surface. When this wet snow melts and refreezes at the eaves, it creates ice dams that force water under shingles. Homes in St. Clair Shores and Clinton Township, which sit closest to the lake, see this pattern most often, but it affects the entire county during strong lake-effect events.

Vinyl siding from the late 1990s is now 25 or more years old and often shows fading, warping at the seams, and cracking at corners and trim pieces. The bigger concern is what happens at the seams — when the locking channels loosen, wind-driven rain gets behind the panels and reaches the house wrap or sheathing. If you see paint peeling on interior walls near exterior corners, or feel cold drafts near outlets on exterior walls, the siding's weather seal has likely failed.

In many cases, yes. If the toilet, tub, and sink stay in their current locations, we can replace the tub or shower surround, install a new vanity and toilet, and retile the floor and walls without relocating any drain or supply lines. Moving plumbing adds scope and cost, so we assess the existing layout first and design the remodel around it where possible.

If shingles are curling, cracking, or missing granules across a large portion of the roof surface, repair patches rarely hold through another Michigan winter. Spot repairs make sense when damage is isolated to a small area from a single storm event. When the shingles are aging uniformly across the whole roof, replacement gives you a fresh start with proper ice-and-water protection and new flashing, rather than layering new material over a failing base.
