"When we were shopping for a roof, we knew we wanted metal, but we were afraid the cost would be too prohibitive. We needed someone to educate us on the benefits of metal, and to explain how we were getting more for our money than we would with asphalt shingles. We also wanted to see what the metal roofing material looked like up close. Weather Guard was the only metal roofing company we found that had an actual showroom, so we went there one Friday afternoon. We spent a couple of hours with one of the owners in the showroom learning about the different types of metal roofs (prior to this we didn't know there was anything other than rib panels) and looking at pictures of the roofs of homes and businesses they had done. Despite the fact it was a Friday afternoon, a time when you may think they would have been eager for us to leave (especially since we made it clear we were not ready to purchase), we did not feel rushed or pressured. When we got home from the showroom we read the reviews of this company on Angie's List. We were quite surprised, frankly, because the experience we'd just had did not match the negative experiences others wrote about on this site. We discussed the pros and cons, and spoke with a friend in the building industry to get his input. This was a huge purchase for us and we had many concerns, not the least of which was cost. We came up with a price that we needed in order to proceed with metal, and we decided to see if Weather Guard could meet that price. The same gentlemen who'd shown us around the showroom came out the next weekend. The roof was measured and we decided which materials we wanted to use. We were told that they actually had some shake in the color that we wanted in the warehouse, so that would not need to be ordered. The price we were quoted was the actual price, and not an estimate. We liked that because it meant there were no hidden costs lurking at the end of the project. We decided to use Weather Guard because the price was, we thought, very reasonable for what we were getting, and it was a little less expensive than we'd anticipated. They did arrange financing for us, but we opted to use our bank instead. There was no problem with this whatsoever. They started the job a couple of weeks after that. They worked quickly and the job would have been completed within two days had they not run out of the shake material, the same material they said they had in their warehouse. Apparently there was not enough to complete our job. It had to be ordered and it took a couple of weeks more before they had it and could finish the job. Had it been rainy we would have been a lot more aggravated about this than we were, but the weather was good and we didn't need to worry about leaks. One of the things Weather Guard takes pride in is their clean up, but we would have to give them a "C" in this area. We were picking up nails out of our driveway for weeks after the job was complete, and we've found pieces of plastic in the bushes closest to the house. The largest piece of debris we found was a board approximately two feet long that had fallen into one of the bushes; to be fair, it was not clearly visible and we only found it when we were pruning the bushes. I would definitely recommend Weather Guard to anyone in the market for a metal roof. The individuals we dealt with were professional and respectful. The metal roof is more expensive than a traditional asphalt shingle roof, but for us, the benefits of metal (long lasting, sturdy, attractive) made it the right decision."

We assemble furniture, exercise equipment, swing sets, & so much more! We can do change outs for new doorknobs, garbage disposals, light fixtures, fans, faucets, toilets, & more. Honey do's that you don't want to do yourself. \n\nI have been in business since 2019. But I have over 25+ years of assembling things. I was let go doing the massive layoff from Baker Hughes in 2015. I enjoyed assembling things, working with my hands. I decided to go into business for myself. \n\nOur small business only consists of my wife & I. I am from the Lafayette area. We enjoy meeting & helping those in need!\n\nWe have had many types of customers.

Doors questions, answered by experts

Start by checking the top or side edge of the door. Look for a certification label or metal tag stamped with details like the fire rating and information on the manufacturer. Even if it’s painted over, the tag should still be visible. Next, look along the edges for slim intumescent strips. They’re designed to swell up and seal gaps when exposed to heat. Finally, check if the door closes itself. Most fire doors have a self-closing mechanism, like an overhead closer or spring hinges. If none of these are obvious, contact a fire safety professional to help verify your door. 

You want a small gap of 1/8 of an inch between the door and the jamb. However, the gap size depends on the direction the door swings and whether it contains glass. You will also want to aim for the same size gap on all sides of the door, so it opens and closes smoothly.

A door sill is the bottom portion of your door frame, while a threshold is the transition piece that separates the two types of flooring between rooms, or serves as the transition between the interior and exterior on an exterior door. The threshold sits on top of the door sill. A kick plate is a protective plate that sits against the face of a door to prevent damage to the door from feet and shoes. You’ll usually only find kick plates on exterior doors, while every door has a door sill, and most exterior and interior doors have a threshold.

You want plenty of room between your pre-hung door and the framing in your wall to allow for shimming to get the door into the perfect position, so aim for about 1 inch on the top and both sides. That means you should make your rough opening about 1 inch taller and 2 inches wider than your pre-hung door. You’ll then use shims to stabilize and level the door before installing it.

Outswing doors are more popular for exterior doors as they offer more room for moving items in and out of a home. And because the hinges are on the outside of the door, they’re more secure against potential break-ins. But, outswing doors are more susceptible to the elements and are more expensive. Comparing inswing vs. outswing doors depends on your budget, needs, and overall preference.
