Just like any other feature of your home, your roof is prone to breakdown. When mother nature or age gets the best of your home’s roof call us! When the roof is cracked, damaged, or broken, water and other things can get into the roof and really damage your home or business.  Dickson Contractors have been the roofing experts in Gurnee since 1987! We know roofing and we know how to make sure your roof is protecting your home, family, or business in the area from the weather in Gurnee.  You can delve deeper into roofing from the article below however to give you a brief overview of what to look for on your roof to give you signs that it might need to be repaired or replaced:

  1. Cracked Shingles:  Along with missing shingles, curling shingles, cracked shingles are just as serious a warning sign that you should consider getting a roof replacement.
  2. Bald Spots: If your roof has several bald spots, where there are missing shingles you should definitely consider getting a professional roofing service to come out and inspect your roof.
  3. Leaks:  If you notice, holes or leaks, in your roof, you should consider calling a professional roofing service to come and inspect your roof to make sure it is still safe.

Dickson Contractors has been serving Gurnee Illinois with the best window services for over 30 years!  However, one of the problems we always see is cracked windows that have gone on too long and cannot be saved.  If you have a crack in your window there are several reasons to get repaired or replaced as soon as you can:

  • Loss of Insulation – When a window cracks air can get through easily. This means that cold or hot air can pass through the crack making the room the window is colder in the winter and warmer in the summer.
  • Water – Even if the seal around your window is not the best, water still runs down to the base of your window where it is designed to handle it. Cracks mean that there is another way for water to go, and that way can lead it to where the window was not designed to handle water.
  • Dirt – Pollen, dirt and other particles floating in the air outside are often small enough to make it through a crack in your window. This means a lot more cleaning on your part, and dealing with allergies as well.
  • Insects – Windows keep more than the elements out. Insects have a bad habit of finding small holes to get into your home, and a crack in your window can be a great way for small insects like ants, spiders, and others inside.

Dickson Contractors has been serving Gurnee with all their siding repair, replacement and installation service for over 30 years! One of the most important things we can tell you about siding is that you should never rip the siding off the home when it is coming off.  Doing this can actually damage the siding more. One of the best things though is vinyl siding.  You can learn more about siding below but here are some benefits to vinyl siding for your home:

  1. Vinyl siding is very durable, it can withstand high winds and resist heat, moisture, and cold. Never changing its appearance, even after a strong storm.
  2. Vinyl Siding is cheaper to own, install, and maintain over time.
  3. Vinyl siding is very diverse when it comes to your choices. Vinyl siding comes in many different colors or textures that best suit the feel of your home. Vinyl can mimic the look of stone, wood, and slate. Homeowners do not have to compromise on beauty when it comes to vinyl siding.
  4. Vinyl siding does not need to be overly maintained. You never need to repaint and it can be cleaned off with water and a mild soap once a year. It will not crack or rot.  
  5. Wood requires upkeep not only with pain to make sure that there are no holes or cracks which will only increase over time.
