"Hired Bill Philpot to repair leaks in the roof, fascia, and soffits, and clean and seal gutters at the corners and seams. This was a terrible experience for me, as I hired them to do repairs on the house of my mother. The workers were unskilled and apparently in recovery. Should have stopped the job on day 4, but I thought Bill wanted to make it right. The gutters still leak. The roof over the front porch had to be done twice. It has been 4 months and Bill has yet to come out to inspect the **so-called** finished job. Overpriced. I would not recommend them."

Award winning. Family owned & operated. We specialize in residential storm damage restoration, roof replacements and repairs. We provide complete turnkey insurance claims assistance from the initial FREE INSPECTION, meeting with your adjuster through completing the work with our high quality crew that is covered by liability and workman's compensation insurance. We also do cash jobs and provide cash estimates. We offer short and long term financing. Additional phone numbers (205) 616-1430, (205) 789-9733 and (317) 432-1971. *****Our primary business philosophy is “do what you say your going to do when you say you’re going to do it”.******

"It has gone very smoothly, I worked with Alfred Pickett, (205) 837-1011, who quoted the job, scheduled the job with one of Authentic Restoration's roofing crews. It is Alfred who stood fast that our roof was damaged and likely that our insurance adjuster would approve coverage payments. This occurred on an incredible day when I coincidentally paid a home inspector to inspect a small area on my roof that another "sub" of mine had patched. Alfred was standing nearby and we didn't say a word that Alfred was a roofer. I asked the Home Inspector to check our roof while he was up there - and he came down and told me the roof was not damaged by hail! When the inspector left, Alfred showed me on his "Tablet" the picture he took of our roof and there were many pale charcoal-colored spots in the picture. This was the hail damage we suspected that occurred in April 2017. Our terrific Cincinnati Insurance Co. paid all of our $40,638 roofing/new gutters bill except a $2,500 deductible that we happily paid. Authentic Restoration performed a great job on our home's roof and (don't forget) gutters. I am so big on Restoration that we got my youngest Stepson's home re-roofed due to hail damage also, and happily this home was covered by Cincinnati Insurance also (hail damage). In addition, I've led, so far, two of my neighbors who own luxury homes with hail-damaged roofs to Alfred and they are getting new replacement roofs covered by insurance. Alfred has also made things easy in doing our two jobs and I am very fortunate that we crossed paths because he has saved my wife and I some serious money and made it easy!!"

"We called them on August 16th last year because our unit upstairs was not cooling. A person came out, said that we were low on freon and added some. It cooled for half a day and then got hot again. We called again on the 17th, we were told there was a leak, they added freon said they thought they had fixed the leak. on the 20th, it got hot again upstairs, we called them to take a look. A differenct guy said the first guy didn't fix the leak but he would fix. For those service calls we paid almost $400 dollars. That was 6 months ago. Again our upstairs unit was not cooling. My son called and we got charged the emergency rate of $145 they spent 15 minutes and told us they would have to come out next morning. After their "inspection" we were told that we should have registered the upstairs unit as it was just out of warranty (We didn't install it, how were we supposed to know to "register" it) and that it was the coil leaking and the outside fan unit leaking (same one 6 months ago that was supposed to have been fixed). We were told that it would cost us $1500 dollars. We told them no thank you just put freon in, we got charged and an additional $560 labor and inspection fees. Do not use Trinity Contractors if you want the issue fixed and not be robbed blind. We will never use this contractor again."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

It is possible to repair wet, rotted wood, but it depends on the extent of the damage. If the wood is severely decayed, it may be necessary to replace the affected sections entirely. However, if the rot is relatively minor, you can attempt to repair it. Start by removing any wet or decayed wood, allowing the area to dry thoroughly. Then, you can apply a wood hardener or consolidant to strengthen the remaining wood fibers. Finally, use epoxy wood fillers to fill in the damaged areas, shaping and sanding them to match the original wood surface.

A screened-in porch requires maintenance to keep the screens clean and in good shape, and you may have to do some screen repair or replacement from time to time. A screen porch isn’t an all-season porch, so the weather can get in, including wind and rain.

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

By applying protective finishes and using durable materials that withstand weather and time.
