"One again Gabe and his guys did a fantastic job. This is the second project we have had him do tying our beautiful stamped and colored new front patio into the back. The job was done quickly and efficiently exactly the way we wanted. Gabe is great at communicating as the project progresses and addressed any questions or concerns we had immediately. All of the guys on his crew are super respectful and friendly making sure we were able to go on with our daily activities as needed without any disruption. Overall great experience and fairly priced for the excellent product he provides."
"We needed to replace three worn out decks on our home, but also wanted to change the existing design by adding a few additional square feet in the process. This was going to be a challenging project because two of the three decks were tied to the second and third level of our home… Choosing 5280 Home Improvements for our project proved to be the perfect choice. Bob listened closely to our project goals and concerns and was very knowledgeable when providing his thoughts and opinions on how we could achieve the desired outcome. Bob worked with us through the material options, comparisons and selection process, as well as the design modifications and improvements we were looking to achieve. When the work was being done, the site was kept clean and organized. Upon completion, we were very happy with how the project turned out... It’s been almost two years and several parties later since the work was completed by 5280. All three decks still look as great as they did when they were finished. We highly recommend 5280 Home Improvements to anyone looking for a quality builder they can trust."
"Dillan did an awesome job fixing my pergola. He was reliable, showed up when he said he would, and the quality of the work turned out great. Everything feels sturdy and looks way better than before. He paid attention to detail and made sure it was done right. Definitely recommend him if you need someone dependable and skilled."
"Very good,. He was a little slow in finishing the job but didn't charge extra for the agreed upon price. He took a bad storm door back to Lowe's and exchanged for a good one. Didn't charge me for the trip."
"Jon Berman did a fantastic design/build and installation of a solid 8-foot work bench in my Denver garage. He worked efficiently and collaboratively, sharing design ideas and dimensions...even providing a helpful CAD drawing...before building the bench elements off-site and installing them flawlessly on-site. I highly recommend Jon for his excellent skills and experience. I would not hesitate to contact him for any woodworking design/build project. His pricing was very fair for the quality and value of the finished project."
Porticos last 25 to 60 years, depending on the material used. A portico’s roof typically matches the roof of the rest of the home and can be replaced simultaneously. Portico columns have a similar life span if properly maintained and regularly sealed. In some areas, harsh weather and extreme temperatures may cause a portico to wear more quickly.
Log cabins are relatively difficult to maintain compared to a traditional house. That’s because log cabins require regular upkeep and care that can include refinishing and corncob blasting, a process similar to sandblasting that shoots ground-up corncob with compressed air.
Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:
Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance.
Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight.
Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.
Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.
Fascia and soffits differ in their location and design, but fascia vents are the most popular alternative to soffits. These are a bit more hidden than soffits, but depending on the structure of your roof, they can cost more to install and maintain. They are also installed around the entire roof, whereas soffits can be placed only where you need them or, if the aesthetics bother you, somewhere out of sight.
Yes, many gazebos are permanent structures built onto the land. However, if you have a portable gazebo that isn’t secured to the ground, you’ll want to check the manufacturer’s instructions to understand when to put it away. Generally speaking, when it’s particularly windy or wet outside, you should take down your temporary gazebo.
