"DO NOT HIRE DONALD GLADWELL ? UNPROFESSIONAL & UNRELIABLE Our experience with Donald Gladwell was a nightmare from start to finish. He hired unprofessional, sloppy workers who showed no respect for our home. The work was so poor that we had to bring in a professional team just to fix the mess they left behind. Donald initially promised the project would take five days, but it dragged on for over two months with little to no oversight from him. He made no effort to monitor the quality or progress of his workers, leaving us to manage the entire project ourselves. This was a frustrating and costly experience, and I strongly urge others to stay away. Hire a professional who actually stands behind their work?Donald Gladwell is not that person."

I started Straka Contracting over a decade ago in Howard County after having gained considerable experience in all areas of home improvement. Much of that know-how came from working with my father who has been in the trade since the 1960s. Today we serve the central Maryland area with a full array of services including remodeling, additions, decks, fencing, roofing, skylights, siding, windows, doors, gutters and gutter guards. Straka Contracting is dedicated to quality work and we offer a guarantee to back it up on every job. What’s more, when I take on work I am personally involved from beginning to end, making sure things are done properly. Karel Straka, Owner Straka Contracting
"Karel Straka has helped me on and off with construction items on my townhouse for almost twenty years, making major changes to my deck and patio among other things. I find him easy to work with, very thorough, trusty-worthy, reliable and affordable. Sometimes I submit my own design, and he always does it better."

Signs that your shed roof needs replacement include curling or buckling shingles, visible sagging or drooping areas, interior water stains, or even plant growth on the roof. These issues show that the roof’s structural integrity is compromised and that it's time to hire a roofing professional for a replacement to protect your shed.
Deciding between a flat or sloped roof for your shed depends on several factors. Flat roofs cost less to install but require a slight pitch for proper drainage. Sloped roofs offer enhanced durability against heavy rain and snow and typically last longer. Consider your local climate, budget, and maintenance expectations when choosing the ideal roof style.
The lifespan of a shed roof depends on the quality of materials and maintenance. Standard roofing materials can protect your shed for 15 to 30 years, while premium options like slate or clay tile may last 50 to 100 years. Regular inspections and timely repairs can further extend your roof’s longevity.
