In 2020, one of our clients came to us for routine maintenance on her home. While there, we assessed her aging wood deck and found some rot issues. Shirey Home Pro put together an estimate for a new, composite deck instead of wood for a virtually maintenance-free deck that will never rot.
If you are concerned about possible lead exposure in your home, you can take the initiative by bringing in the experts at Shirey Home Pro.

We all know that the pandemic made people use the rooms in their homes for more than their intended uses. People worked from their couches, went to school at their dining tables, drank in their bathtubs, and exercised in their garages.
Summer is the season when a lot of people are making improvements to their homes. We've advised on how to make your home more comfortable for you when you're working from home and for your kids during remote schooling. However, we have not yet talked about how to improve your home for one type of family member: your pets!

With more people staying home nowadays, people have become more interested in soundproofing their homes to block out noises from their neighbors, passing cars, and barking dogs.
Now that spring is here and the dreary, cold winter is beginning to fade, it's time to think about the projects you'll need to have done to your house to prepare it for the warmer weather. We recommend you walk around your home, inside and out, identify potential issues and tasks you want to address.

Colors reminiscent of nature are also trending because of all the time we spent inside during lockdown. This trend of bringing nature indoors is known as biophilia, which is another way to say we want to connect to nature and other life forms.
Outdoor spaces are not only great for entertaining but also for your mental health. Having a place to spend some time in the fresh air and sunlight can clear your head. We could all use some head-clearing fresh air after being stuck inside during lockdown and winter.
