Outdoor Living & Storage

Screened-in porches and sunrooms offer added square footage at a lower cost compared to a traditional home expansion. Typically made from prefabricated aluminum or vinyl, or custom-built with materials similar to the main home, these rooms are often closed off from the main part of the house to offer a comfortable seating area or playroom with plenty of natural light and protection from the elements.

Residents in Dallas, TX are typically used to prolonged summers, and warmer weather means patio time! The Good Guys exterior remodeling team can also build custom decks and fire pits or fireplaces to create an outdoor living area. Outdoor kitchens with built-in grill, cook-top, storage and bar options are exceedingly popular for patio party hosts and grilling aficionados.

The Good Guys can also build out dedicated backyard play areas, complete with edging or border, ground cover, shade structure, and home playground set.

For those with a green thumb, the addition of a pergola or gazebo can take your garden landscape from ho-hum to huzzah, while adding additional seating! Garden sheds and storage sheds built on-site or delivered prefabricated can offer a practical and eye-pleasing repository for tools and property.

Stained or Stamped Concrete

Often overlooked, the concrete underfoot in your backyard oasis doesn’t have to be drab or strictly functional. Concrete staining is a simple way to complement the color palette of your home’s exterior decor. (Polished stained concrete flooring is a cost-effective alternative indoors as well!)

For freshly poured patios or driveways, adding stamped concrete textures that resemble brick, stone, tile or wood -- and poolside stamped concrete can even be a fantastic safety feature as heavily textured concrete adds grip to slippery steps. Combined with concrete stain and sealing, the results can elevate the final result of your project.

Windows & Doors

Replacing windows with energy-efficient models can drastically minimize the cost of heating and cooling your home. With multiple designs and colors available in both wood or vinyl, single- or double-hung, our expert team can guide you to the perfect match for your style and budget. Exterior window shutters add a traditional and timeless touch to your home.

Likewise, replacing worn entry doors and thresholds can lead to huge energy savings as weathered materials can no longer contain climate-controlled interior air. Whether steel or fiberglass, a new door adds an extra layer of protection to your home as these materials are more difficult to breakthrough than more cost-effective wooden entry doors.

Replacing garage doors ranks among the highest return on investment upon the sale of the home, according to Remodeling magazine’s Cost vs. Value 2019 report. This should come as no surprise as the newest models of garage doors offer design and material options that enhance the exterior style while improving energy efficiencies and security.

Fences or Gates

Surrounding and protecting your property, properly built and installed fences should act as a stylish security force. Whether your home needs a security gate, privacy fence, or a decorative white picket fence on the front lawn, The Good Guys offer quality materials and professional installation. For your fence installation and home security gate needs, reach out to our team today!

If you have a leaky roof from storm damage (or just old age), The Good Guys can help with that too! From full roof replacement to roof repairs, The Good Guys can correct issues, work through roofing remediation or replacement, and coordinate with your insurance claim for a fast response to home storm repair.

Gutters help to divert rainwater away from your home and walkways, preventing soil erosion from your flower beds and foundation. If your gutters are failing, or if you’re already replacing your roof, it’s a great time to invest in a new gutter system from The Good Guys!
