"My wife and I employed Ranch Hands Construction to replace our exterior deck and staircase last year. We were extremely pleased with the job they did and the professionalism of their employees. This Fall, when we were looking for someone to remodel our master bathroom, we gave them a call. Jean Claude did the estimate. He was very helpful with suggestions to improve the functionality of some of our design choices. Their bid was straightforward, complete and unambiguous. We opted to give them the job. Our project was led by Bill Davis. He and his apprentice, Donald, were fantastic. He always kept my wife and I advised when they showed up in the morning, went to lunch and left for the day. They took great care to protect our bedroom during demolition and drywall. The workspace was left clean and organized at the end of each day. Our project was complicated and involved running new drains, plumbing and electrical. Bill took great care in making everything not only look good, but be functional and easy to maintain. When unforeseen issues came up, he promptly informed us, explained the issues and provided solutions. The decision was always ours. I would highly recommend Ranch Hands to anyone. They've done a great job for us. We will definitely use them again on our next project."
"Our remodeled kitchen exceeded all expectations. Leoni’s eye for design brought our ideas to life, creating an open and functional layout perfect for entertaining.

The project was finished on time and within budget, and our kitchen now feels like a welcoming and sophisticated part of our home. I’d recommend McCormick to anyone wanting a home transformation without stress!"

Their customer service was top notch, Very professional, communicative, and respectful of my home.Highly recommend them for any handyman work! You won’t be disappointed. Will hire them again."
It is often worthwhile to refinish or restore furniture, especially for high-quality, older, antique, or sentimental pieces. Older furniture tends to have better durability than modern, mass-produced items, and refinishing can cost about one-third of the price of replacement. To determine if it's cost-effective, compare quotes from local refinishing services with the price of a new, similar piece. Refinishing can refresh a piece's look and extend its lifespan. However, it may not be worth it for newer furniture made of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) or plywood, or for items with major structural damage. A professional can help you assess the piece and decide on the best course of action.
It is generally worth repairing leather furniture rather than replacing it, as it is typically more affordable and the material tends to retain its value. A typical repair averages around $250, which is significantly less than the thousands of dollars a replacement could cost. Even a full reupholstering, which can cost up to $4,000, may still be more economical than buying new. With proper care, repaired leather furniture can last for many years, making the investment worthwhile. However, if the underlying structure or frame of the furniture is damaged or malfunctioning, replacement might be a better option. The quality of the leather and the furniture piece are also important factors. For a definitive answer, it is best to consult a leather repair professional to assess your specific situation.
There are many tips and tricks you can try to make your dresser drawers stop sticking and slide easier. You can rub a small amount of beeswax on the drawer slides or apply paraffin wax in the same manner. If you need to unstick wooden dresser drawers, consider using silicone, graphite, or Teflon-based lubricants for best results.
Wood furniture is usually vulnerable to water damage. However, larger furniture tends to have a high chance of being salvaged as long as it hasn’t been standing in water for more than 24 hours. You can restore bedpoles, table and couch legs, and other wood parts that haven’t been fully saturated. Meanwhile, smaller objects like decors or furniture with fabric wrapping may require full replacement.
If your drawer slides are made of metal or plastic, it’s best to use white lithium grease to lubricate them. The dense formula of that compound creates long-lasting results and should prevent you from having to re-grease the drawer slides frequently. Test the white lithium grease on a small, less-visible area of the slides first to ensure it doesn’t damage the finish before applying to the entire fixture.
