"Great communication between us, my thoughts and design were totally understood. From the start Vic help with my decisions, everything, the dismantling of old rotten shade structure, and organizing the color Concrete crew. He called and was very professional with his approach to project . Honest, prepared, worked all days. A really good fair price, my wife and I are very happy with the entire experience. I'd recommend Central Builders to any friends and Family."
"Absolutely awesome. Easy to work with and fair. Mcqueen construction was one of several contractors I contacted for a bid. There were two contractors I felt comfortable with and confident that the result would be good. (Fingers crossed). For some reason I felt Scott would be someone I felt comfortable with and could work with. They removed my 20+ year old deck and spent 2 days shoring up the superstructure, leveling, measuring, etc. , and came up with some options of how best to install a new trex deck and not waste boards. From then on the work, the effort to complete the job, the willingness to communicate was what I hoped for. The result was great. Couldnâ t be happier and would highly recommend them for any job that requires a contractor."
"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again."
"We recently hired The AI Construction for a deck repair and partial replacement project, and the entire experience was outstanding. Angel and his team did an amazing job from start to finish. They were professional, punctual, and communicated with us throughout the entire process. The quality of the craftsmanship exceeded our expectations, and the new deck looks beautiful, feels incredibly solid, and was completed with great attention to detail. They kept the job site clean, finished on schedule, and made the whole process stress-free. If you’re looking for a contractor who truly cares about quality and customer satisfaction, I highly recommend Angel and The AI Construction. We couldn’t be happier with the final result!"
"I’ve worked with Mike and his team for years on all kinds of projects, and they’ve always been amazing to work with. The quality of their work is top-notch, they stay on budget, and everything runs smoothly from start to finish. Their design sense is excellent and they always manage to get things done right on time. I can’t recommend them enough, truly a reliable, talented, and easy-to-work-with crew."
"If you are looking for a knowledgeable, hardworking and trustworthy company, not to mention a kind, respectful, good communication and good person, Vitaliy owner of AVD Construction is who I highly recommend. Our project started as an owner build ADU garage conversion. We interviewed 3 subcontractors for each initial trade. Vitaliy was initially interviewed for framing, it was immediately evident that he was very knowledgeable about construction and codes. His pricing was fair and within other quotes, so we hired him. After a couple visits, and reviews of blueprints we discovered that Vitaliy was a general contractor. Since we were early on in our project, we would have him bid at each step, which we would choose him every time. As the project progressed Vitaliy would catch errors, by other trades and engineering. Most of these catches saved us time and money. There were times that he would fix some of these errors to help us out and save time. There is a specific example that comes to mind. Concrete sub had just poured their concrete, they took off the garage side door and our larger garage door wouldn't close. I was feeling very uneasy about having access to our garage and home from the street. Vitaliy pulled the door out of the pile of trash, cut it down to fit in opening, put hinges back on and wired garage door closed. I think he could see how happy and grateful I was, I remember saying "I think I'll be able to sleep tonight." Vitaliy said "treat other people's home like it's your own." That really stuck with me. Vitaliy made suggestions along the way, that made sense and often was overlooked by our novice eyes. He explained things, so that we could understand, he taught us so much. We are so grateful and lucky to have found him. We went on to hire AVD Contruction to frame, drywall, tape/mud walls, completely tile 2 bathrooms (floors and showers), Install 2 French doors, windows, all vents, stucco entire sides where new doors and windows were installed, plumb our kid's bathroom. Vitaliy was there for every inspection. Every job he took on, he and his workers were respectful, communicated each step of the way and they always treated our home like it was their own. If I had to do it again, I would have hired AVD Construction to do the whole project."
"Macc and his team did an excellent job on our deck installation project. Everything from helping us select the right materials, designing the layout, and completing the installation with quality and attention to detail. Everyone we interacted with was highly professional and left the work site clean. In addition to our decking project, Macc also subcontracted some really great concrete work for us which included a new driveway, front porch, and walkway, as well as some decorative stamped concrete in the backyard. This project went very smoothly and the end result met and exceeded all of our expectations. They also did some repairs to the exterior of our home/roof which included replacement of multiple facia boards at a reasonable price. Overall, we were very pleased with the quality of the work and the integrity and professionalism of Macc and his team, and we would hire them again for future projects. Highly recommended!"
"Glenn and his crew from United Services went above and beyond my expectations. I had a bathroom gutted, water damage repaired and a whole new custom shower put in. The quality of the work is excellent, crew was reliable and very respectful. I also am having them build an oversized garage and cement handicap ramp for me, which is almost completed now, Glen even upgraded the garage door for me without charging me! Again, the quality of work is excellent. Glenn and the crew are very kind and patient as they explain things to me and helped me find the correct items for my projects. I unfortunately had several major plumbing emergencies recently while Glenn and his crew were working here. They jumped right in and worked with me to get the problems corrected offering me support throughout the whole process, making me feel more like family than just a customer. I highly recommend United Services to anyone who needs work done on their property, I guarantee you won't be disappointed."
Just like any other part of your home, hurricane garage doors need regular maintenance to stay in top shape. This ensures they function optimally during storms and provide the protection you need.
You can do some basic maintenance yourself, like cleaning the tracks and lubricating the moving parts. It's as simple as using a mild detergent and water to clean the tracks and applying a silicone-based lubricant to the hardware. However, for more in-depth maintenance and inspections, it's a good idea to call in the professionals to identify any potential problems and fix them before they become more significant issues.
You should let your initial paint job dry at least 12 hours before opening the door. Check your work after 12 hours have passed to confirm there are no uneven patches, or signs of the old paint showing though—if you see any, we recommend applying a second coat of paint and waiting an additional 12 hours for it to dry.
Adequate storage, workspaces, and energy-efficient systems are key considerations.
A traditional driveway gate isn’t your only option when installing a barricade in front of your driveway. A security gate like a swing gate, double swing gate, bi-folding gate, vertical gate, or pivot gate could work just as well as your driveway gate—if not better for your home depending on which qualities you’re after. Like sliding driveway gates, many of these alternatives work with automatic features that simplify entering and exiting your property.
