"I called Ace Painting & Handyman, and Roman promptly answered the phone. I asked if he could caulk my bathtub, he took my address, and was at my house in minutes because as luck would have it, he had just completed a job a block north of me.
He and his crew did the caulking on the spot, had it done in just a few minutes, and did an outstanding job. I was so pleased with his promptness and efficiency, that before he left I talked with him about some other work I would like done. He is friendly and easy to talk with. I am extremely happy to have found my forever handyman.

Patio Covers questions, answered by experts

The cheapest material for covering a tennis court is rubber or clay. Rubber needs to be installed over a concrete or asphalt base, however, which can make the project more expensive up-front (but cheaper to resurface over time). Clay courts are among the most affordable, but they aren’t the best to play on and require a lot of maintenance.

Acrylic, polyester, and vinyl are common options. Choose based on durability, UV resistance, and style.

Yes, you can install an awning yourself, and it can be an excellent DIY project with immediate benefits. This is most feasible for smaller, pre-assembled units. However, awnings are often heavy and awkward for one person to handle, so you should always have at least one helper. If you have difficulty lifting heavy objects, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper mounting and durability.

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the size and customization of the awning.

It’s best to opt for a lightweight roof, as a heavy roof adds a lot of weight and pressure to the support posts and hardware and destabilizes the structure. Vinyl is a good, lightweight option, as is a nice open trellis, louvered aluminum or vinyl slats, or fabric panels. Clear polycarbonate is another great option that offers seamless shelter and additional UV protection without completely obscuring the sunshine. You can also choose retractable coverings or an awning that you only use in wet weather or when you need additional shade.
