We offer quality and affordable General Remodeling Services. \n\nIn 1985 after servicing the Pittsburgh area for other vendors for several years. I had the idea that I wanted to provide everyone with a quality and affordable way to repair their homes. Seeing that most people I met had that need, Homes that had repairs that needed done but no one to do them affordably. I branched out on my own and opened William Harris roofing and remodeling. An exterior remodeling company. For years we have held ourselves to the highest standards providing quality craftsmanship and affordability. I ran my business and raised my children. my youngest son was just like me. He loves what we do, he has always strived to help others and learn how to always produce quality. He graduated in 2007. When he graduated we partnered together to create William Harris And Son Renovations. After years we have grown from a exterior remodeling company to a general remodeling company. We do everything but heating and air conditioning. Don't know if we do something just ask. We look forward to changing not only how you feel about fixing your home but how all your future remodeling projects are completed.

Garden blankets and frost cloths are the best things to use to protect trees and plants from frost. They are made from polypropylene fabric, which is lightweight, breathable, and dries fast. If you can’t get garden blankets or frost cloths before the freeze, you should use lightweight blankets, sheets, or towels.
For standard 2x4 walls, the ideal insulation has an R-value between R-13 and R-15. This level of insulation, typically around 3.5 inches thick, fits well within the wall cavity. Common options include fiberglass batts and spray foam. The best choice for your home can depend on your climate; use R-value maps, like those from Energy Star, to determine the recommended level for your region. For colder climates, you might also consider adding exterior insulation for greater efficiency. Always check with your local building codes to ensure you meet any required standards.
Vapor barriers in attics are a bit outdated and most areas no longer recommend them for attic spaces. For vented attics, the best method is usually to install drywall and cover it with latex paint before attaching insulation fiberglass, cellulose, or foam insulation. When renovating an attic to use as a living space, a contractor can guide you on the best way to cover insulation.
Natural fiber batts and spray foam insulation both work great for soundproofing. Newer materials, such as hemp batts, are more expensive but more effective for insulation and sound blocking. They are also more sustainable. There is also a professional system called Blow-In Blanket Insulation (BIBS) that is soundproof and moisture-resistant. However, BIBS must be installed professionally and can be a costly investment.
