"I?ve worked with literally 100?s of Contractors over my years, both personally and in my Real Estate and Restaurant Career. Salt & Pepper Design & Construction, LLC is a RARE FIND! Their quality of work is literally the best, their employees well-trained and have a real work ethic and respect for the job?s needs (example, daily cleanup was exceptional). In addition, I am very particular about the work product details, i.e., not easy to please, and yet I was amazed at their great and very timely performance. In this case, it was an insurance claim, and they made things very smooth. Also, they helped with extra work that I needed, very impressed/happy, and you will be too! Nadav does an outstanding job, and we are hoping to hire him to build our next custom home! Shhh, did I shoot myself in the foot, because now they?ll get too busy and I won?t be able to use him again? haha. Get them on your job now, you won?t be disappointed, and that is the truth!"
"After becoming frustrated with renovating our existing home—and receiving unreasonable quotes from several local builders—a friend recommended Empire Builders. From the beginning, they arrived on time, provided a fair price, and offered recommendations that saved us a significant amount of money while producing a better result. Empire Builders gave us a clear project timeline and stayed on schedule and within budget. Thanks to their knowledge and professionalism, our home on Venice Island is beautifully renovated and fully up to code. We are extremely pleased with the results and highly recommend Empire Builders."
"If there were six stars to choose from, that would be the rating I would give for the service provided. They were efficient, on time, and had a very professional and friendly personality, doing an amazing job repairing my ceiling. I will be using them for future handyman projects!"
"They are very friendly and did a great job. They were on time and the quality of the work shows through. We're very happy with their work and would hire again."
"Angela and her team were super efficient and professional renovating my elderly mother's house after it was decimated from Hurricane Helene and Milton. She was not only compassionate and fair considering our budget, but solutions-oriented and an excellent communicator considering I was out of state and needed to make decisions remotely on behalf of my mother. They went the extra mile, did not cut corners and did great work overall -- from kitchen reno to bathroom repairs, drywall install to full house painting. I definitely would recommend ADECA Design and plan on working with them again in the future."
"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."
New garage doors are often worth the investment because they improve the appearance of your home, make it more secure, and add to your property value. Installing a new garage door costs $1,200 on average, but you’ll have greater peace of mind that your garage door will function properly and keep your home safe. If you sell your home shortly after replacing your garage door, you’re expected to see close to a 100% return on investment, which is significantly higher than most home improvement projects and almost instantly makes the project worthwhile.
Whether a garage or an extra room adds more value depends on several factors, including local market demand, location, and typical buyer preferences. Generally, added living space is highly desirable to most buyers, which can make an extra room more valuable than a traditional garage. The return on investment (ROI) often depends on the utility of the new space; for example, an additional bedroom is typically more valuable than a new living room, and converting a garage into a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom will likely add the most value. A well-designed extra room can also serve specific needs, such as a home office, guest room, or entertainment space. However, adding a garage may be more valuable in areas with limited street parking or harsh climates where protecting a vehicle is a priority.
During a garage door tune-up, a pro will check and adjust your door’s components, looking for any damage and loose cables, springs, or rollers. The pro will also lubricate moving parts, like the hinges and rollers, and likely tighten some screws and bolts. They’ll also adjust the door opener’s tension and alignment to make sure it’s level. Finally, they’ll wash the door to ensure it’s clean, and test the auto-reverse mechanism to make sure it’s working as it should.
Hiring the right professional to build your garage can be easy if you know where to look. Feel free to ask neighbors or friends for recommendations. If that doesn’t work, platforms like Angi can help you connect with trusted professionals in your area. You can read reviews, compare quotes, and view past projects. Research and interviewing multiple pros goes a long way in making sure you get the garage you want.
Garages are often equipped with lighting, electrical boxes, and sometimes even heating and cooling, while carports rarely have utilities. A garage is an enclosed structure that can lock and usually has an automatic door. A carport is often wood or plastic and is designed only to protect a car from elements like rain, snow, and hail. Carports are commonly seen on property where an attached garage is unfeasible but can be a cost-effective solution for car protection for anyone without a completed garage.
