"Najeeb came in, evaluated the job site and needs and made short order of finishing the project. He is always polite, timely and freely shares his experience and knowledge. The wall was not a routine patch; more like a replacement. I absolutely will rehire and recommend Hamdan Handyman LLC."

"It went very well. The crew was efficient, hard working, skilled and personable. The owners answered my questions, were available by phone, responded promptly and did a nice cleanup job and checked in with me about the work before leaving. I’m pleased with the work and will contact them again if I need any other work done."

"Timber and Meghan were great to work with. The price for the work was extremely reasonable and Timber was very flexible and creative with solutions. The original plan was to power wash and treat the existing fence and pergola. Timber suggested going over the old fence with a new fence and building a new pergola.The overall cost for these changes was pretty much the materials. We provided Timber with a photo of a pergola that we found on line and he recreated it flawlessly. I cannot praise Timber highly enough. We are thrilled with the new deck. One of our friends is a retired home builder who is never impressed. He had nothing but praise for the quality and craftsmanship of the work. We already have plans to engage Timber for additional projects. PS We had to order a new dishwasher while Timber was here. He installed it for us and took the old one away."

"Larry is the first contractor I have ever hired, and I am so glad I found him. He was a pleasure to work with. He did some drywall repair/install, and installed a new door for us. He was always in contact with me, and always updated me completely. His prices were so reasonable. I will absolutely be using him again for any of our home repairs."

"I recently worked with Ernest and his team at Above & Beyond Remodeling to remodel my basement, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Ernest was professional and attentive throughout the entire process. He really took the time to understand my vision, and the team executed it perfectly. The quality of the work is outstanding, and the project was completed on time. I’m absolutely thrilled with my new basement and would highly recommend Above & Beyond Remodeling for any remodeling needs!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Received a request to bid on a project, sooner than any other contractor. Within 30 minutes we had set a day to review the project, and then I had the quote within 24 hours of the visit. I was able to schedule at my convenience, and the job was knocked out right on schedule. I had all of my window trims completely redone (largely due to age and window air conditioners). The frames were non-standard, and he quickly developed an effective solution and got the job done."

"Hassan was hired to replace my trash compactor and redo my countertops. He did a great job with both. He removed the trash compactor the same day he came to give me the quote. He went above an beyond as I had kept adding little projects along the way ... replace my doorbell, fix a bedroom closet door, remove a latch on my basement door. He is such a good worker. Communication was a problem in the beginning with him not keeping in touch with me as to his work schedule, but that was worked out. As I will be moving in the near future, I told him I will be calling on him again if I need his help at my new home."

Garages questions, answered by experts

If you have a garage heater that is 1,500 watts or more, it will need its own breaker. As a good rule of thumb, no appliance should exceed 1,500 watts per outlet for best outcomes. Consult a local garage heating service to determine the power needs for your outdoor or indoor space.

The amount of paint needed to cover a two-car garage floor depends on the surface area and the product's coverage rate. On average, a standard two-car garage floor measures 400 to 500 square feet. Coverage ranges from 100 to 200 square feet per gallon for epoxy paint, depending on the product and application method. After some quick math, you may need 2 to 5 gallons of epoxy paint with two coats to cover a two-car garage floor. 

It’s better to build a garage than buy and install a prefabricated one. You can save money by purchasing a prefabricated metal garage kit for between $4,000 and $11,000. However, this does not include the price of labor and permits, which can account for more than half of the project cost. Building a new garage over buying a prefab garage will add more value to your home and will last longer, so it’s more cost-effective over time to build a new garage.

If push comes to shove, and you need to manually open your garage door, then you should be able to do so. To manually open your garage door, first, make sure that the door is in the down position. You’ll need to unlock your garage door opener’s emergency release mechanism, which is typically a red robe that you can find on the carriage. Once you’ve pulled the cord, you can manually lower the door.

If your garage door is stuck in an open position, consider contacting a professional to safely release the opener.

The best paint for a garage door depends on the door's material, the desired finish, and durability requirements.

Paint Type

The type of paint you need often depends on the material of your garage door:

  • Aluminum Doors: Typically require exterior acrylic paint.

  • Vinyl and Wood Doors: Exterior latex paint is usually recommended.

  • Steel Doors: Professionals often use latex or oil-based paint.

You can choose between acrylic, oil-based, and latex paints. Acrylic paint offers excellent UV and weather resistance and dries quickly, but may require multiple coats. Oil-based paints are very durable and may only need one coat, but they dry slowly and emit more VOCs. Latex paint is available in a wide range of colors and is forgiving to apply, but it can crack over time and may require a primer for even coverage. For an eco-friendly option, consider acrylic latex paint.

Paint Finish

You have a wide variety of finishes to choose from, including semi-gloss, gloss, satin, eggshell, and matte. The choice is largely based on personal preference, but many people opt for a semi-gloss or gloss finish. These finishes dry to a hard, durable surface that stands up well to humidity and regular wear and tear.

Regardless of the type or finish, it's crucial to use a quality exterior paint that can withstand the elements. Using a primer before painting will ensure better adhesion and a more even, long-lasting result.
