Roofing
Commercial
Not only is the physical building of primary concern, but the well-being and comfort of your employees, the prevention of interruptions to business activities and the compliance with safety issues, are also, of the greatest concern for any commercial entity.
Residential
Over the course of a season, roofing materials are exposed
to extreme weather and temperature changes that cause shingles and
flashing to expand and contract. Eventually, this process
causes roofing materials to wear out. Therefore, a roof should
be thoroughly inspected at least once a year. A roof approaching
fifteen (15) years of age becomes a candidate for re-roofing. It is
sometimes tempting to postpone roofing work to avoid an additional
expense. This is almost always a mistake and creates a greater expense when the
work becomes a necessity.
Knowing about problems your roof may have, and getting estimates
on current cost to repair, can provide time to plan for the expense and shop for the best contractor.
In addition to the information provided throughout our site regarding roof repair, here are
a few tips that may be helpful during a re-roofing process.
Your home will be a construction site.
PLAN FOR NOISE. There will be hammering during most phases of your re-roofing project.
Plan your schedule accordingly.
We will need access to your roof via the driveway, in most cases. Plan to park vehicles
out of this area while work is in progress and for delivery
of materials.
Prevention measures.
Remove loosely hung items from both interior and exterior walls and bring in any items around the eves of the house
that could get damaged by falling shingles. Keep children and pets away from work area.

Siding
For beautiful, natural-looking vinyl siding that is virtually maintenance, free contact John Beal, Inc.
We offer a wide variety of siding styles including styles reminiscent of cedar shake or traditional clapboard, in a
striking array of colors to match any taste or architectural style. Our sidings are engineered to perform well, even in
harsh conditions.
The design, selection, installation and maintenance of the exterior siding system of a home should not be
considered purely for cosmetic reasons. Siding must perform a number of vital functions, including the
protection from rain and moisture. It must also withstand moisture which emanates from the interior of the house.
Are you looking for siding that captures the look and feel of wood in a natural, but truly durable material?
Consider CertainTeed WeatherBoards™ FiberCement siding. With a number of profiles and textures to choose from,
and a less porous surface (which holds paint well), you will spend more time admiring your home and less time worrying
about maintaining it.
We are not aware of any siding material or system which does not require regular maintenance. Any promise that
a particular product is maintenance-free or permanent should be viewed with skepticism.
Windows
When people shop for replacement windows, they can do so for a variety of reasons. Some want to replace
cold and drafty windows; others are faced with rotting frames,
while still others simply want to improve the overall aesthetics
of their home. Regardless of your motivation, replacement
windows for your home are a valuable investment. As a result,
you may feel a bit overwhelmed by the seemingly daunting task
of choosing the right windows for your home. Let John Beal,
Inc. help you in making the right decision, and the right investment.
Brickwork, Stone & Concrete
Stone and bricks last longer than any just about any other
type of building material. However structures made from mason
materials do require routine maintenance and the mortar that
holds them together is usually the first to deteriorate. Tuckpointing
is the most obvious solution in most brick problem cases,
however this may not be the entire scope of what is needed.
Let our specialists inspect your building to help you ensure
that your structural integrity remains intact.
In addition to repairing existing brick, stone and concrete,
we offer a variety of new structures to enhance the beauty
and functionality of your business or home. Ever thought about
a brick mailbox? How about a brick or stone walkway to your
garden or pool area? We have experts in this field who can
bring your visions to reality.
