"Chad did an amazing job on my cabinets refacing he also added a backsplash that really topped the project off. He has a good eye. He also paints and stains, I have flipped seven homes in my lifetime and Chad was amazing. He is a good carpenter finisher and also shows up on time and that is a big plus."

"The price was very good and the work was fine. I gave them a B because setting it up was confusing. This company has one of those franchise set ups where you call a number and get someone in Florida or wherever. You never talk to someone local until the service person calls to say they are on the way. It's confusing because the coupon also listed a Florida location and I thought I'd purchased the wrong offer by mistake. Then, there are the calls from various locations to confirm the appointment. It made me very cautious because I've had several bad experiences with this type of set up and appointments that don't happen or get mixed up.
In the end, the man showed up on time and did a good job. We have pets and get a lot of lint and hair in the vents, which means we need to clean them annually or semi-annually, especially since we have a vent pipe that exits through the roof and not straight out through the wall. It's more apt to clog up and become a fire hazard. I get it done regularly and know what they should do, and it all happened very efficiently. They clean up nicely and were appropriately cautious about doors and equipment due to pets too.

Doors questions, answered by experts

The most common rough opening for a sliding glass door is 60 inches to 72 inches by 80 inches. A rough opening is the unframed space where your door will go.

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.

No, you cannot install a door without a jamb. The jamb is where the hinges, strike plate, and trim are attached. A person could ostensibly attach the hinges to the door frame itself, but it would hamper the door from opening and closing like normal. Door jambs also provide crucial support for the door and security for exterior entryways.

Begin by determining which way you want the door to swing based on the layout of your room. Traditionally, left-handed doors have a doorknob closest to your left hand, and right-handed doors include a doorknob closest to your right. Right-handed doors with left hinges swing inward and vice versa. This can vary based on the layout of your home, though.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.
