For more than 55 years, TEMO has been an innovator in the home improvement business. At our Michigan headquarters, we've developed proprietary materials and designs that make our products more attractive and durable than what our competitors offer. We are so confident in the quality of our products that we back each on with a limited lifetime transferable warranty.
"Outstanding Experience with TEMO – Our Patio Cover is a Dream Come True! We recently had a TEMO cathedral-style patio cover installed, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, professional, and exceeded our expectations. The design of the cathedral roof instantly elevated the look of our backyard – it’s both elegant and functional. The vaulted ceiling gives the space an airy, open feel, and it blends beautifully with our home’s architecture. TEMO’s materials are clearly top quality – everything feels sturdy, well-crafted, and built to last. The team that handled the installation was courteous, punctual, and meticulous. They took great care to ensure everything was installed properly and cleaned up thoroughly after the job. Communication was clear throughout the process, and any questions we had were answered quickly and professionally. We’ve already hosted several gatherings under our new patio cover, and guests constantly compliment the space. It provides excellent shade, keeps the area cooler, and has truly transformed how we use our outdoor space. If you’re considering a patio cover, I highly recommend TEMO. Their craftsmanship, customer service, and product quality are unmatched. We couldn’t be more thrilled!"

"Very easy to work with. Listened to what I wanted and kept within budget. Very knowledgeable of the products Trex carries. I talked to several other companies and received bids for the same product. Found out that Decks Unlimited was the subcontractor for one of the big box companies. I have a familiarity with residential construction, and unlike other companies, they didn't try to BS me. Again, unlike others, did not try to up sell me. L Very pleased with their work. They worked well within my HOA constraints. Just had an issue with clean up after the work was done, but I honestly believe it was because of weather, which put them behind schedule on other jobs. Who would have thought we would have rain and snow in the same week that late in the spring? I would highly recommend them."

FAQs for major home repair (general contractor) projects in Ypsilanti, MI
You should replace floor joists as soon as you see clear signs of structural trouble—sagging floors, wide wall cracks, uneven door frames, wet or rotting wood, persistent squeaks, or windows that no longer latch. Tilted or sinking supports in the crawl space are another red flag. If you notice any of these signs, call a pro right away to keep your home’s structure safe.
If the joists are exposed from below, a pro can swap them out without touching the finished floor above. In an unfinished basement or crawl space, you’ll often see the joists and can easily reach them. When insulation, subflooring, or finished flooring blocks access, the crew must remove these materials before repairs can begin.
Sistering allows a pro to reinforce a cracked or undersized joist without tearing up the entire floor. The contractor slowly raises the frame, then fastens a new joist snugly against the damaged one to share the load. When done correctly, sistering restores full structural strength and keeps the floor level without the cost of a complete replacement.
Floor joists installed correctly in a stable environment can last for 100 years or more, often outlasting the house itself. However, termite damage, moisture, leaks, and other problems can significantly reduce a floor's lifespan. For instance, if the floor is exposed to consistent moisture, you'll likely need to replace the joists every 20 to 30 years.
Homeowners' insurance covers floor joist damage resulting from sudden and accidental events, such as fire, windstorm, or water damage from a burst pipe. It will not cover repairs resulting from gradual deterioration, poor maintenance, or termite infestations. Review your insurance policy and consult your provider to verify the conditions that guarantee full coverage. Doing so ensures you are fully aware of your responsibilities and can plan your repair work with complete confidence.
Floor joists are essential structural components that provide a stable foundation for your home. They directly transfer the weight of floors, furniture, and occupants to the foundation, ensuring stability and a safe living environment. Without these robust beams, the structure would face compromised load distribution, leading to potential safety hazards and costly repairs. Proper installation and maintenance are crucial for long-term durability and safety.
