"Cannot say enough GOOD about Dakoda! He quickly fit us in for an estimate. Day before he was set to begin the job, we had to ask him if he could delay by +2 days due to going into the hospital to deliver our baby, he readily agreed and adjusted his schedule to accommodate ours. While working on the floors, he worked around our hectic family (2 toddlers) in addition to his kindness and understanding, his work is quality! He kept in communication, gave us pointers/suggestions and got our flooring installed timely and beautifully. You will not be disappointed hiring Dakoda, we weren't!"
"Glad that I reached out to Kelci, she’s been nothing but helpful and responsive from our initial phone call. Definite repeat customer here. Found good help for a good price and recommend her to anyone. She’s stepped up exceeding my expectations of being able to help out with moving into new home & helping organize as well as Top Notch cleaning services."
"David is wonderful. He did a terrific job on a house with many windows on various levels. I have recommended him to my neighbors and will use him again this coming summer."
"He is a very pleasant man, He came in and set his equipment up. He set to work and he works several hours a day to finish the job. He made the place very pleasant for everybody to comes in. The work he did was excellent."
"Sunceri did a great job on my condo and finished the job very promptly. He also charged me a fair price and was very professional. I would hire him again."
"Top Notch team did a phenomenal job!! The performance by Top Notch was outstanding in every regard, very knowledgeable about the work I needed done and very thorough in their work. Foundation work is often messy but when the job was done, it is as it no work had been done there..the workers work in a very professional manner leaving the job site clean! The owner listens to your needs and is flexible! I have recommended Top Notch to a neighbor and will be recommending to many others!"
"Very well. Great communication the entire time. There were some time set backs due to the pandemic but we were notified of all progress as the job went along. Photos and videos were uploaded to the app they use to keep us informed. The work site was clean and orderly the entire time as well. No issues with debris in the yard or driveway. Overall we had a great experience and would recommend them to friends and family. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to work with. A definite company to consider for all construction or remodeling needs."
"The owner Kevin Richmond was a pleasure to work with, he came in and gave me a fair estimate and painted the interior of my home in a timely manner and communicated with me every step of the way ! Would definitely use his services again."
The lifespan of your door depends on the door type, its wear and tear, and the weather conditions in your area. For instance, front doors last between 20 and 60 years, depending on the material. Garage doors, on the other hand, last between 15 and 30 years. Interior doors don’t get hit with the elements and can last between 20 and 50 years, if not more.
Wood, steel, and fiberglass are common choices that offer durability and style.
A fire door can cost anywhere from $400 to $1,350 to purchase and have installed. The cost comes from the price of the door, which can be anywhere from $400 to $900 or more, and the cost of labor, which should be contracted out considering that fire doors are a safety measure. Most contractors will take between two and four hours to install one door.
Kick plates are usually installed on the “push” side of a door, but there are plenty of reasons to install them on both sides. Interior kick plates can offer protection from pet scratches, doors being kicked closed, and even kids’ toys during enthusiastic play sessions. Consider what kind of use and abuse your door gets to determine which side or sides to install a kick plate on.
Standard door sizes aren’t one-size-fits-all, but there are common go-to dimensions. For exterior doors—like your front door—36 inches wide by 80 inches tall is typical, though you’ll see 30- or 32-inch widths too, especially in older homes. Interior doors vary more. Bedrooms and bathrooms often use 30- to 32-inch widths, and closet doors can be anything from slim singles to wide bi-folds. Height is usually 80 inches across the board; however, always measure your actual opening. “Standard” only works if it matches what’s already in place.
