"Bill did a wonderful job on our recent renovation. He arrived everyday and worked diligently until the job was done. We will be calling him again for future work."
"So easy to work with. Timely, and professional. Totally satisfied. The pergola they built for me is beautiful. I can easily recommend them. They told me i would be happy and I am. Thanks guys. I will use you again. Recommending you to anyone that is looking for an honest and dependable contractor."
"I was happy with the cost for bleaching my roof and painting my house but there were a couple of issues with the painting we were not happy with. The hurricane shutters were supposed to be closed and painted. instead, they were open when painted so now when they are closed they are half white half tan and they did not do a good job prepping the house for painting. The old paint at the bottom was not scraped off just painted over so it has big flakes in it. Luis called a couple of days later to see if we were pleased and I explained the problem and sent him pictures. He said he would send someone over to fix them. That was a month ago. My husband has said to forget it he will do it himself. It is a shame because we are trying to give small businesses work and we had 2 more projects to be done but will have to go with a large more reputable company."
"The work was excellent, the tiling was well done. I asked him to come back to do a closet, he went way above and beyond to perform that service to us."
"During the estimate we did a walkthrough the house with the onwer to explain him what we wanted and needed during the process. He was very patient, listend to our needs and answered all our questions. The first day of work the crew was on time and worked all day long. Honest and hardworking employees, must say. The bottom line is that they were able to fix our old floor and now we get a lot of compliments. We sure are recommending Martinez to friends and family because they are the best."
There are several reasons garage door cables can come off multiple times. The most common reason is that the springs have too much or too little tension and require adjusting. Other causes include track alignment issues that keep the door from operating correctly or smoothly. A damaged winding drum or obstructions in the cable's way can also cause it to come loose.
If your cement garage floor is sinking and cracking, your first step should be to call a local structural engineer to assess the problem. They can determine if it’s a minor amount of sinking related to normal settlement or if the issue is structural in nature. If you do have structural damage, the engineer or a foundation repair company that you hire will come up with a plan to fix the issue, which often consists of mudjacking for less severe issues or underpinning for more extensive problems.
In most cases, you do not need planning permission to change a garage door to a normal door, unless a specific restriction is present on your home’s deed. If you’re changing the door because you are trying to convert the garage into a living space, you will need to work with building control for proper signoffs to ensure your conversion meets all of the necessary construction standards.
Plexiglass garage doors are a durable and less expensive alternative to garage doors, and they maintain a similar aesthetic. Other elegant types of garage doors include carriage house garage doors and stylish wooden garage doors, but these don’t offer the same look as glass, of course.
The most affordable way to insulate a garage involves choosing cost-effective materials like fiberglass, which comes in batts or rolls and is relatively easy to install. You can often install this type of insulation without needing to add drywall, which helps reduce costs. While a DIY approach might seem cheapest, hiring a professional installer can be highly cost-effective. Experts can accurately determine your garage's specific insulation needs and ensure the best results for your investment, often using batt insulation for the bulk of the project.
