"We are very happy with the service and the value. Daniel has some really experienced subcontractors in his arsenal and was able to help us achieve a substantial renovation at a very reasonable price. He was flexible as our design plans changed and had good ideas and pushed us to do a couple larger projects that we were a bit uncertain about until we understood how feasible it was to accomplish. The results speak for themselves."
"They sent us what we needed to measure the table accurately. They also sent the colors available. Everything was well explained and easy to order. The whole process did not take too long and the pads arrived quickly. We were very pleased with the service and quality."
"The bi-fold door was fine. Made the door frame the wrong size...came back next day to correct. Job was shoddy. Nails showing, no caulking...door did not close. They came back, fixed the door not closing, and tried to cover nails and caulk. Just was not a very professional job."
"Pablo is phenomenal at all tasks. He put together: Dining Table Assembled Chairs Assembled a Coffee Table Built a Crawl Space Door Painted with a Sprayer He did everything to perfection and was very quick with each job. Pablo has common sense and is trustworthy."
"We love our cabinets! They look fantastic while remaining affordable. The friendly staff at AWD helped us from start to finish. They are very knowledgeable and gave us advice and tips when needed. They were receptive and patient with our ever-changing needs. Once we finalized our purchase, we received our cabinets within two weeks! The cabinets are very sturdy and the color is beautiful. The hinges and hardware are high quality. We are extremely pleased with AWD and would recommend them to any friends or family looking for good cabinets at a fair price."
"This service was exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't confident about choosing the new look for my living room. I wasn't sure what my "style" was, and what would look good together. I needed a consultant to let me know if the items I was considering would look good together. Amanda called me and we talked about what I liked/didnt like. She had me post pictures from Pinterest and Houzz of rooms I liked. From that she was able to tell me what my style was. She noticed things I never realized before. For example I apparently picked the exact style couch in every picture I posted. As I found furniture I liked I would send her photos and she would let me know if she thought they would go good together. For example she recomended a different coffee table - i needed one that was more substantial to balance the size of the sofa. She also helped me fine-tune the paint colors for my walls - I thought this was the hardest part of designing the room, but I love the results. I was basically looking for someone to guide my choices, but they will also modify their level of service depending on what you need (cost varies depending on service needed). I would positively use them again!! "
"Tech arrived within time frame agreed upon. He checked out thermostat. Found it defective and had to order replacement. Has not yet finished job, but i expect to hear from him as soon as he acquires replacement to schedule installation."
There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet.
A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.
You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.
When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors.
Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.
