"Couldn’t be more pleased with the work Mr. Hernandez did. He made sure the new handrails were absolutely secure so my partially disabled husband would be safe. Everything was cleaned up thoroughly. I definitely would hire this company again."
"Element Repair and Remodeling is a excellent company . His work is perfection. The carport was so great,that we hired him to fix our insulated door and our railings at both doors, that were destroyed during hurricane Ian. I would hire Element Repair and Remodeling again for any large or small projects. Reasonable prices and very honest and reputable."
"We hired Salt & Pepper to install a floating LVP floor over an existing wood plank floor. The team was on time, professional, and easy to work with. Nadav, the team lead, was very precise with a high degree of attention to detail. The quality of the installation of this floor ended up looking better than the original floor installed by the builders. Next time we need any work on our floors, we will be calling Salt & Pepper again. Highly recommend."
"Five stars for Empire Builders & Remodeling. They built our entire home from the ground up on our vacant lot in Rotonda West, Florida. The project was handled professionally from start to finish. Vitaliy communicated well, handled the permitting process, stayed within the budget we discussed, and made sure the construction stayed on track. He was always responsive and straightforward whenever we had questions. We were especially happy with the quality of the workmanship and attention to detail throughout the house. Everything came together very well, and they even finished a little ahead of our scheduled move-in date. We also appreciate that Vitaliy has remained responsive after the project was completed. It's reassuring to work with a builder who doesn't disappear once the job is finished. Overall, it was a very positive building experience. We would definitely recommend Empire Builders & Remodeling and plan on working with them again in the future."
"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!"
"Leroy and Wayne were both very professional and went above and beyond for my gutter replacement I needed my soffits painted on the whole house and they helped me hire a painter they have used in past to spray the paint on the soffits because they tried to brush the paint on and realized the holes to let the house breathe we’re getting clogged. That was just good honest business to do the right thing for me and lose a little income for them but give me a better result in the end. I would highly recommend these guys also because they are a family business teaching their sons the trade on the job."
"What a easy way to get your home remodeling projects done. Bronson walked us through the entire process and timeline. It was such a great experience from start to finish. I never felt like other parts of my house were a complete mess with construction. The budget we agreed on was met. Bronson is extremely friendly and communicates great until the project is finished. Thank you 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."
You should spray garage door lubricant on its important mechanical parts, including the hinges, rollers, springs, bearing plates, lock, armbar, and, potentially, rail. Do not lube the tracks, though you should clean these regularly for optimal performance.
Having a garage can increase the value of your home considerably, even if the garage isn't considered living space. Many people own cars and want a secure place to park their vehicles when they are home.
If you decide to finish your garage and convert it into living space, you may affect your home's value. The livable space may increase your home's square footage, which can help its value. But, giving up the garage space may also negatively affect the sale price of your home.
Carriage, sliding, folding, and trackless pivot doors all replace a standard roll-up door. Glass doors and roll-up screens work well when you convert the garage into living space. Match the style to your driveway clearance and climate.
You can put sliding doors on your garage, but it’ll save you money if you install them when you’re building the garage, so you avoid removal costs for the old door. Garage doors are sectional, using vertical tracks and large springs to lift the door. These require professional removal, and the cost can quickly add up to thousands of dollars.
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.
