Consulting

I've consulted Jay at House Calls twice. Once was for a deteriorating garage door lintel, and I wasn't sure if it indicated a bigger hidden problem. Jay's advice was that it likely wasn't a big problem; that I should drill some extra drainage holes in the stucco caulking, and watch it over the next season. He identified that the lintel problem was likely just paint over unprimed wood, and that I could just sand, prime and repaint it.

The second consult was over a leaking skylight. He identified where the most likely source of the leak was - a deteriorated seal, and suggested that I try caulking around the glass pane with silicone sealant - something well within my very limited DIY skills. I did this and the leak has stopped.

I really appreciate that Jay did not suggest expensive repairs in either case, but common sense advice to try easy solutions first. Based on the questions he asks about the problem areas, he clearly knows what he's talking about, and gathers information carefully before giving an opinion.

I recommend him highly.
