"Second time customer. Extremely pleased with new gutters. Originally installed in 2018 but had to be replaced after Ida. Not only did they put in new gutters, they also hauled off the gutters damaged by the storm. I highly recommend Ultimate Siding & Gutters!"

Capital Improvement; State Licensed, Fully Insured General Contractor providing Home Improvement and Remodeling Services in South Louisiana
"Do not use this company. Very poor workmanship and no customer service. I have mildewed windows on the two windows they installed. Had 10 windows installed by another company at the same time with no issues. Capital Improvement agrees they are moldy. They say there is no warranty. Please find a professional company."

Patios questions, answered by experts
Installing a walkway to your home can add value, as it can make your landscaping look more intentionally designed and boost your overall curb appeal. In addition, walkways can be installed with accessibility in mind, which can be helpful for those with mobility issues or who need a wheelchair.
Both a well-constructed deck and a patio can add value to your home. Patios are generally cheaper to build but don’t offer the same aesthetics as a quality deck. Therefore, decks can be more appealing to buyers than patios, increasing a home's resale value.
You may want to hire a concrete floor contractor to check out your home’s concrete surfaces or inspect your home’s foundation for minor damages they can fix while on site. They may be able to fix cracks in your driveway or garage floor the same day they fix your concrete steps, as well. General concrete repair experts often won’t be able to handle larger jobs, like leveling a sunken foundation , so you’ll need to hire a structural engineer for bigger projects.
Cement companies often charge a per-cubic-yard cost for concrete, which averages around $130. In most cases, you can also expect to pay for leveling, surfacing, and add-on services, like stamping concrete. Here are some typical prices for common concrete projects for which you may hire a cement company.
Walkway: $1,800
Driveway: $2,800
Standard patio: $3,300
Stamped concrete patio: $4,000
Concrete steps: $3,500
Colored concrete: $3,800
You might also need to budget for removing your old concrete or additional land prep before your professional can pour concrete.
Deck pier blocks are one alternative to traditional deck footings. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. They’re best for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Keep in mind, though, that not all areas allow the use of deck pier blocks, so consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck.
