The first thing we do is to remove the window sills.Then we install 1x wood strips. This give us an nailing strip an a way to allow air to flow behind the siding.

We then install a foil radiant barrier- google it, its very cool. HardieTrim at the windows and corners.

How we install window replacements.

This job will be receiving PGT Double hung replacement windows. I prefer to Install windows with a fin “new construction” style for a stronger tighter finish.

First we remove the trim.

Screen & Florida room ROOF options.

March 22, 2010 at 7:33 pm | Category: Screen Rooms

All aluminum roof options start with the same basic structure, either an Pan Roof or an Insulated Roof Panel.

The manner in which you attach it to your existing structure dictates the shape of the new roof. This one is a low pitch roof attached to the fascia (overhang). The ceiling height is set by the existing fascia height.

Low pitch roof from inside.

When you need more height, several options are available. This method uses a gutter and a riser section.

My favorite option is to build a gable (pitched) roof.

Gable roofs let the outdoors in!

The good thing about custom rooms, we can make it fit most situations.

We can attach a gable roof by building a “cricket”. Good thing I am a state licensed roofing contractor.

We can even add shingles to match your existing house.

HardieShingle

March 11, 2010 at 7:00 pm | Category: Siding Projects

I like using Hardie Shingle for an accent. It is an expensive product compared to HardiePlank but is very affordable is small quantities. This is the individual shingle in a straight edge pattern.
