"She was professional and on-time. She came to my home, did a consultation, and took pictures. Errin then came back with all the material that she needed to make my vision happen! Everything worked perfectly and including all of the labels. She was able to have a conversation about how to keep it organized & how I could keep it that way."

"We had a couple leaky faucets and some loose electrical fixtures wanted a handyman to come take a look. Dakota was great to talk to, giving us an idea of what it would take to fix our plumbing issues and quickly fixing our electrical issues. He charged a very reasonable price ($30), considering that he was at our house for an hour or so"

Hello! My name is Amy and I have been professionally cleaning homes since summer 2021, and I love it! As a single mother of 2 little ladies nothing can compare to the flexibility I have gained in operating my own business! Also, I love providing a service that gives other busy families, hardworking professionals and individuals that just need a helping hand the gift of time! Time to worry and stress less so they can spend more time on the people and activities that they love the most and a whole lot less worry about the mess! Prior to housekeeping I was a childcare professional for 14+ years! So you can surely imagine how efficient cleaning and sanitizing techniques have became a huge part of my everyday! I love children and pets alike! Keeping them healthy and safe by using natural and environmentally safe cleaners vs. harsh chemicals can always be counted on! I do always bring along all of my own cleaning products and equipment as well! Looking forward to chatting more with you about your specific cleaning needs and expectations to set up a plan thats a perfect fit!

"Excellent firm. Owner came out, assessed the closet space (12'x7'), measured length and width of wire shelving already installed, designed a new installation with a sophisticated computer program, went over it with us, and then sent us a proposal the next day. We were doing some other things in the bedroom area (new carpet, furniture, etc., so we scheduled the install three weeks away after the other work was finished.

Home and Garage Organization questions, answered by experts

An average two-car garage size is about 580 square feet. A common dimension for a two-car garage is 24-feet deep by 24-feet wide, as measured by the interior width. However, the manufacturing of larger vehicle sizes means many homeowners want to build bigger garages. It’s not uncommon for a two-car garage to be 30-feet by 30-feet.

You can prevent your garage from freezing by applying techniques like sprinkling salt onto the garage floor, installing a garage heater, shoveling snow outside the door, and more. Additional methods of preventing your garage from freezing over is to seal all potential air gaps, replace weatherstripping, and adding insulation to the surrounding walls to keep the heat from escaping.

Not all garages are structurally designed to support the weight of a room above, so the answer depends on a few things. A critical first step is consulting with a structural engineer or building professional to assess the project's feasibility. Your home addition pro will assess what kind of foundation reinforcement will be needed to build the additional space you desire.

For a garage to count as living space—and towards your home’s total square footage—it needs to be attached to the rest of your home and have permanent finishings such as proper insulation, finished walls and ceilings, and adequate ventilation. It also needs to be livable at all times of the year, so it should be heated if it gets cold in the winter and cooled for hot summers.

In some cases, a detached garage can be considered extra living space, but you will need to gain permission and comply with your local building code. Depending on where you live, you may need permits for a variety of installations, including electrical work, plumbing, and structural work. Many homeowners make the mistake of converting a garage into a living space without acquiring permits, which can result in hefty fines and even the removal of your hard work. Furthermore, a detached garage doesn’t add to the livable square footage of your home when it’s time to sell.
