Coastside Roofing Specialise in Residential Roof Repairs.
They can be very simple, extremely difficult or anywhere in between.
You would think that repairs would generally be easier than installing a new roof – well sometimes they are – but often they can be very tricky indeed. Most are temporary in nature but they can be done properly.
The first step in fixing a leak is to find out exactly what is causing the leak. Finding this can sometimes take longer than doing the actual repair! Basically, if the roofing contractor is not totally sure he found the cause – he probably didn’t and any work that was done was done in vain. Coastside Roofing has developed an exact process for finding and fixing leaks which is being turned into a manual for homeowners and contractors.
Finding the exact cause of the leak cannot be understated in importance. But doing the repairs properly is also very important. Non-standard repairs such as waterproofing materials or loads of sealant on metal roofs is a bad idea and can often end up making the problem worse or create a new problem. Sealants have their place, but the average roof repair man or handyman will tend to go overboard so it is important to get someone who knows what they are doing.

I’ve never done this before. I'm nervous!Hey, that’s understandable… it’s not every day that you call up a complete stranger to take pictures of you wearing lingerie! Our clients often walk in feeling a bit nervous, but always leave smiling and talking about how much fun they had. You may not do this often, but we do and we’ll help you feel comfortable, beautiful, and empowered. If you’re not sure what to expect, click here to learn a little more about the process. We also offer an in-studio consultation so you can get to know our team and space ahead of your photoshoot, which can definitely help calm those nerves.
-
I don’t know how to pose sexy! Will you help?Yes ma’am! We’re experts at boudoir poses and will direct you through the entire session. We’ll get into the pose ourselves to show you how it looks, then assist you in assuming the pose from head to toe. Trust us, we’re professional boudoir photographers… and we all know what it’s like to be on your side of the lens, too!
-
I have very specific ideas and props for my shoot. Can we do that?Let’s do it! We absolutely encourage you to bring in your ideas. We may not be able to recreate your entire Pinterest board, but we’d love to collaborate with you to bring your vision to life. A few notes: If you have props, bring them and we’ll incorporate them in! Guns are allowed, but please inform us first if you’re planning on bringing them for your shoot. Costume outfits are welcome! Coming prepared with pose ideas is totally fine, but not necessary – we’ve been doing this for a long time and know what poses will look great! If you have very specific ideas or multiple props to use in your session, it may be considered a custom session with special pricing. Please call for more details.
-
Do you photograph Pin-Up or Burlesque style?Absolutely! We LOVE capturing your Alter Ego, no matter who she may be. We offer luxe sets in Pin-Up and Burlesque styles, along with traditional solid pin-up backdrops. If you have any specific props in mind, feel free to bring your own!
-
Do I have to get naked for my photoshoot?No way! You can be as revealing or covered up as you wish. We want you to feel comfortable and sexy – whether that involves a silky robe, a T-shirt, a plunging neckline, or a lace teddy, we’ll make it work!
-
…But can I get naked for my photoshoot?Yes! We do photograph nudes in a tasteful, artistic style.
-
What does “professional retouching” of my photos include?We use Photoshop to edit and retouch your photos. We use it to remove blemishes, scrapes, bruises and anything temporary on the skin. Upon request, we will also remove the appearance of scars, stretch marks, and smooth out cellulite. We also do minor body modifications where we smooth any bumps and bulges caused by the pose or wardrobe. Why do we use Photoshop, you may ask? To us, it’s no different from wearing Spanx or putting makeup on to enhance your natural beauty. We use Photoshop to help you see what everyone else sees when they look at you!
-
What if I need to reschedule?No worries! You may reschedule your session with a 30 day notice once, free of charge. If you reschedule your session within 30 days of the session date, it will be subject to a $250 rescheduling fee. Special consideration will be taken for unforeseeable events.
-
When should I book if I need my order back by a specific date?We recommend booking about 6 weeks in advance for orders needed by a certain date. If you require a quicker turnaround, please contact us to see if we have the availability.
-
What is the turnaround time for my order?Once your session is complete, your images will be ready for review 10-20 days after your session. We’ll schedule your Image Debut Session at your photoshoot. If you pay in full and your order includes digital images and/or our Mobile Art Gallery App, you will receive your images immediately. Photo albums have a production time of 3-4 weeks after order placement. Please note that if you choose a payment plan, we will hold all images and albums until paid in full.
-
I'm so pale! Should I tan for my session?Short answer: No! Self-tanning products can often leave your skin blotchy or with an orange tint that comes through in photos. Honestly, we would much rather have you come in pale or with a very light tan. If you decide you would like a little color for your session, we recommend getting a light spray tan 4-5 days before your session so it has time to fade a little. Be sure to watch the areas around your ankles, knees and wrists. If you use a tanning bed, watch the area under your bottom and arms, where white areas are often visible. If you do come in with blotchy areas, a deep sunburn or heavy tan lines, we will not be responsible for evening the skin and removing any problem areas.
-
May I bring a friend with me?Friends aren’t allowed in the shooting areas. To get the best photos possible, we need you to be 100% present during your photo session… meaning we don't want you to hold back because you’re not comfortable posing and feeling sexy in front of a friend! If you do bring someone with you, they will be required to wait in the hair and makeup room.
-
May I bring my husband/boyfriend/partner with me?Men are not allowed in the studio during a session unless a couple’s session is booked. But your partner is more than welcome to come along to your Image Debut appointment!
-
Do I have to place an order at my image debut session?Yes. (Unless you’ve ordered products ahead of time with an All Inclusive Package!) If no order is placed at the Image Debut, your images will be deleted. We do not hold onto any images that are not purchased.
