So you've bought a fixer-upper, or are slowly rehabbing your home? Good for you!
It can be a fantastic adventure. Sure, you sometimes hear about people getting
stuck with a money pit of a home that never quite seems to be “done,” but those are
the exceptions, rather than the rule. The reality is that if you're willing to do at least
some of the work yourself, extensive home renovation can be an immensely
rewarding project. You may even find that you like it so much you want to do it as
an ongoing hobby, buying distressed homes and fixing them up for resale, or
trading your rehabbed home for an even bigger one once you're done. It's a good
way to move up the home buying ladder.
No Experience Necessary?
Don't be daunted if you know nothing at all about home repairs. Did you know that
you can learn nearly everything you need to know, for free? You can! If you have
no tools, and have never hammered a nail or cut a board in your life, here's the
secret to learning everything you need to know to be able to pitch in both physically
and materially on your own home rehab project.

Volunteer with Habitat for Humanity.
They're constantly looking for volunteers for builds. Even better, they accept people
of all skill levels (including complete beginners!), and they provide all the tools
you'll need. After completing 1-2 builds with them, you'll not only have a better
understanding of the tools you'll need to invest in, but you'll also gain invaluable
experience you can apply to your own project. It's the best way to learn the skills
you need, and not only is it completely free, but you'll also be giving back to your
local community. As an added bonus, if you need a few extra hands on your own
project, you'll know exactly who to call, because you'll have made several new
friends, all with practical, hands on building experience!
As far as your roof goes, you're going to want to save the actual replacement for last,
but there's an important caveat to that. Before you start doing any serious
renovation work, you need to be sure that no water's getting into the house. That
means you're going to want to make a roof inspection your top priority and at least
patch it to stop water from leaking in. If you don't do this, then you're going to
essentially be working against yourself.

It's no use making extensive interior renovations only to have all that effort undone
by water damage or mold, so make sure you patch the roof thoroughly before
proceeding with the interior work. Then, once all of that is done, begin a new
project to replace the roof if the patching is insufficient for the longer term.
Your home's roof is not unlike your body's skin. It's the all-important outer layer
that keeps all the innards in place, intact, and safe. As such, it should be both the
first (patching) and last (replacing, if needed) thing you look at when you undertake
a home renovation project. Fair warning about the renovations though, having
gained the hands on experience as outlined above, and having gone through it on
your own home, you'll have an in-depth understanding of every part of your home.
You'll understand its systems and subsystems than anybody else, and will intuitively
know when something isn't right.
Where the roof is concerned, if you're not comfortable making a visual inspection
on your own, we're one of Long Island's best roofing contractors and if you're in the
area, we've be happy to take a look for you. Stop by our office or give us a call to set
up an appointment.

When people consider buying a home, they do so based on a mix of practical
considerations and emotional attachment. If you have children, is the house in a
good school district? Is it big enough for your family, and big enough should you
decide to expand your family? If you like being outdoors, how big is the lot that it's
sitting on? Is that enough space for you? If you're a handyman, does it have a
workshop already on the property, or at least space to add one later? City water, or
well?
Those kinds of practical details matter, but of course, there's also the emotional
aspect. You might see half a dozen or more homes before you find one that fits the
entire practical criterion and also “just feels right.” That part is a little harder to
quantify, but it's something you very definitely know when you see it
Perhaps you just love stately looking two story homes, or a place with big, mature
trees in the front yard, or a wide, wraparound porch. It could be most anything, and
each person's tastes are different, but it could also be something that straddles the
line between practical and emotional like the pitch of the home's roof
