NüPro Decks: Remodel or Build New for Elevated Outdoor Living

Feb 26, 2024

As the seasons change, the allure of spending time outdoors grows, and what better way to enhance your outdoor living space than with a beautifully remodeled deck? At NüPro, we specialize in transforming your existing outdoor spaces into luxurious extensions of your home. But how do you know if yours qualifies for a remodel, or if starting from scratch is the better option? Let's explore.


Understanding Your Deck's Foundation

The key to a successful deck remodel lies in its foundation. If yours boasts proper footings, remaining level and solid through the years, it's a prime candidate for a remodel. This stability suggests that the underlying structure can support a continuing life with some upgrades.


Assessing the Structure

Not all decks are created equal, and their endurance varies. A deck free from rotting joists or beams signals a strong skeleton. Occasionally, we encounter ones with minor damage where we can integrate new joists alongside the old, reinforcing the structure without a complete overhaul. Additionally, the type of fasteners used plays a crucial role. If we can remove the old boards without compromising the frame, you're in a good position for a remodel.


Making the Decision

A solid, square, and level deck with no visible signs of rotting or damage offers a great foundation for remodeling. Our goal at NüPro is to preserve and enhance the structural elements of your deck, ensuring it looks brand new with updates to flooring, skirting, and railing. To further protect your investment, we recommend installing a joist tape atop each joist. This innovative solution self-seals around screws, guarding against moisture and preventing rot. This preventive measure is a standard part of our remodeling package, underscoring our commitment to quality and durability.


A Closer Look at Stairs

Interestingly, even when a deck qualifies for remodeling, the stairs often require a complete rebuild. This is because stairs endure considerable wear and tear, and updating them ensures the safety and aesthetic coherence of your deck's transformation.


Witness the Transformation

Seeing is believing, and at NüPro, we're proud of the transformations we've achieved. Our before-and-after gallery showcases the potential of a well-executed deck remodel. Each project highlights our commitment to excellence, from the selection of materials to the precision of our craftsmanship.


If your deck is a candidate for remodeling, you're not just preserving a structure; you're embracing an opportunity to elevate your outdoor living experience. With NüPro, rest assured that your remodel will be handled with the utmost care, ensuring that your renovated deck will be a space where joyful memories are made for years to come.

The NüPro Process for Shingle Roofs: A Commitment to Excellence

18 Mar, 2024
At NüPro Exterior Designs, we are dedicated to providing long-term roofing solutions that embody our commitment to quality and meticulous craftsmanship. Our approach to installing shingle roofs is comprehensive, ensuring each phase of the process meets our high standards, from initial inspection to the final cleanup. Detailed Inspections for Unmatched Quality Our process begins and ends with a thorough inspection. Before installation, we carefully assess your roof to determine the most effective application for your specific needs. After completion, we conduct a quality control inspection to ensure every aspect of the installation meets NüPro’s rigorous standards. Protecting Your Property Understanding the importance of your home’s surroundings, we take great care to protect your property. Prior to starting the installation, our team covers landscaping, decks, patios, and driveways with tarps to safeguard them from damage. Innovative Debris Management During the removal of old roofing materials, we employ an Equipter shingle buggy. This cutting-edge tool minimizes ground debris, keeping your property clean and reducing cleanup time. Thorough Preparation and Installation Removing all layers of existing roofing is crucial for several reasons. It allows us to inspect the condition of the current decking, ensures our fasteners secure directly to a solid foundation, prevents disintegration of old shingles that could damage the new installation, and avoids a lumpy appearance in the new roof. We replace any compromised decking to provide a flawless base for your new shingles. Enhancing Durability and Aesthetics To ensure a watertight roof, we apply Ice and Water Barrier along eaves, valleys, and low-pitch slopes. This self-healing underlayment seals around fasteners, offering superior leak protection. A synthetic underlayment covers the remainder of the roof, followed by the installation of new aluminum drip edges around all perimeters. Attention to Detail Adhering to the manufacturer's guidelines, we meticulously install new shingles, chimney flashings, and other necessary flashings. Ridge vents and hip and ridge caps are added for optimal ventilation and aesthetic completion. Final Touches and Cleanup After installation, we paint any exposed pipes and vents to match the new shingle color, enhancing the roof’s visual appeal. Our final step involves a meticulous cleanup process, including a comprehensive sweep with a magnet to remove any nails and debris. Should our work leave any marks on your yard, we promptly repair these areas, leaving your property in impeccable condition. At NüPro Exterior Designs, every shingle roof installation is a testament to our unwavering dedication to quality and customer satisfaction, ensuring that your roof is not only built to last but also beautifully integrates with your home’s overall aesthetic. If you’re in need of a new shingle roof, contact us today to learn more about how we can provide you with a solution that lasts.
