"They did an excellent job. They were expensive, but you get what you pay for. The building inspector of the city said this was the best built garage he had ever inspected. I would highly recommend them and I would definitely hire them again."
"We wanted the garage to match our new house Reubon and crew did an excellent job. We liked the garage so much we had them build a big deck also. The cost was about the same as the mass produced, size fits all one we had priced. Could not have been happier with the experience and result!"
"I loved Randy Rodgers, very committed to seeing us get a garage to fit in our limited space. I would highly recommend Coach House, we love our garage."
"Ervin has done several projects for me over the past three years, most notably, residing my house. Using James Hardie siding, this wasn't easy, however, Ervin did an excellent job! Ervin is a high character guy! Unlike most contractors, if Ervin says he'll do something, it's like money in the bank he'll have it done in the estimated time frame. Knowing that I've had health problems and have been limited physically, Ervin has helped out on many occasions; that's the kind of guy he is. I would hesitate to recommend Ervin for any of your contracting needs."

"David gave me what I thought was a fair price for the work to be done. He asked for 1/2 up front. As a previous small business owner I did not feel this was unreasonable so I paid him 500.00. He estimated the work would take 3 to four days and I thought the same. After several no shows the "mason" showed up. The first clue was he came in a car. According to my wife he was here 2 hours and left, came back for another 2 hours the next day and left again. He said nothing to my wife about leaving or when he would be back. David called a day later to ask about coming out to look over the job and get the rest of the other 500.00. I said he isn't finished and he's only been here 4 hours. So then I looked up the prevailing wage in IL for a mason and found out it is 28.50 an hour. The next day the guy comes back for another 3 hours. David came to look at the work and I walked him around and showed him all of the places that had not been done. So the guy comes back again for about an hour. All told it was 8 hours work, nothing to write home about but it was agreed up front that I wasn't looking for an exposed brick look. I need it tuck pointed well enough so that I could drylock and paint the exposed brick. I will say this was done in the end. The worker left a mess that I and my wife had to clean up, I pointed this out to David as well. I told him I felt he was overly paid for the amount of work preformed and that was the end of it. It's really to bad. It's difficult to get contractors to do small jobs and I had plenty for him to do. I'm not unhappy, just would not hire again"
"Crew was excellent: efficient, informative. Owner Reynolds gave me complete information about my choices/options in roofing, including where to put the vents. After I had chosen one color, he brought back a sample of a new possibility that was superior to what I had been thinking. My new blue-ish roof is beautiful, tight and makes the whole house look so much better. Roof is very steep and difficult to do, I realized once I saw the ways the crew had to work on it--and there are two flat parts that I have never before had done correctly. Reynolds and his crew clearly knew what they were doing and drew on good previous experience. Job site well cleaned and managed while here and as they departed. "
"I contacted World Painting after CertaPro dropped out of sight. We quickly got an appointment with them and they were ready to give us a bid that day. The price was reasonable and it included power washing, caulking, and painting our porch floor along with the entire house. They were able to start within the week and kept us updated through out the project, letting us know what was the next step and when it would be completed. Customer service was excellent. When I had a question they called me back within the hour. They did an amazing job and we have gotten tons of compliments on it. We would definitely use them again. "
"I did not go with this company, they refunded my money because I didn't like their design. I've reviewed this before. Please can you stop these requests to do a review. "

A prefab, or prefabricated garage, requires far less construction work than one with a foundation and frame, but it’s not nearly as desirable and may not be a worthwhile option. A prefabricated garage won’t be as durable or long-lasting, and it doesn’t provide the same protection for your belongings and vehicles. Plus, you can use a standard garage for more uses—like living space—whereas a prefab garage only serves as a space for storage. Lastly, building a traditional garage will add to your home value, while a prefab garage usually won’t.
Garage door insulation can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years depending on the type of insulation. Cellulose has the shortest lifespan coming in at between 20 and 30 years, while spray foam, mineral wool, and fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years with proper maintenance.
Humidity plays a role in how long more susceptible insulation materials—like fiberglass—last. Once fiberglass batts reach the 15-year mark, you'll need to routinely inspect your insulation to ensure that it is in mint order.
Garage door sensors should be installed on each side of the door, typically six inches off of the ground. The sensors communicate through an infrared beam, so they need to face each other directly for the system to work properly. Make sure they’re level and aligned, and keep the area around them clear. If they’re too high or out of alignment, your garage door won’t function properly.
If you're cleaning out your garage, taking everything out first and starting with a clean slate can help. Reviewing what you have and what you want to get rid of makes organizing your garage, thoroughly cleaning the space, and making any repairs easier. When you put back the items you’re keeping, use designated storage solutions to make it easier to find things and keep them tidy.
