I purchased maps of the local area. None of them seem to be capable of dispensing useful information regarding trail head locations, etc even though they (trailheads) are closeby. Don't know what the quality of repair work they do. Been told by locals that this shop is only interested in selling new ATVs and snowmobiles to tourists. Can not address that issue.

Once the work began, they were making good progress rather quickly. From one week to the next, there was always a lot of progress that could be seen. I never felt like work had just stopped. People were continuing to work, even on the weekends. The first thing started on was the roof, which took about a week or less. After that, the hardiplank was installed on the exterior along with the french door. I described what I wanted for the door and the contractor knew exactly what to get. I was very satisfied with what was installed. All popcorn throughout the entire home was removed and ceiling was painted. On the interior, all wallpaper was taken down and work was started on painting the interior walls. There was a little mix up with the color of the paint. But, I didn't have any problem at all with getting it corrected. After the mistake was realized, the contractor went out right away to get the paint and have the interior repainted at no additional charge. After that point, interior doors, lighting, flooring, vanities and faucets, new air and heating unit, granite countertops along with backsplash were all installed. Overall it was a satisfying experience. I was always kept up to date on what was going on. If there was something I needed to see, the contractor would text pictures. Most estimates provided were accurate. If the price was more, it was due to my preference. Everything went smooth except for the paint. But as stated, after the mistake was realized I had no problem at all with getting it corrected. Anything that I pointed out to him was taken care of. There were things the contractor would notice and let me decide if I wanted to get something done about it. He not only wants to get the job done but he wants everything done right. From the beginning the contractor convinced me that he wanted to be able to do the job in a timely manner. Considering all that had to be done, it was done in a timely manner. He gave me an estimated timeframe. The job was done within that time. It took less than 2 months to get all the major work done. Now the home looks like a newer home. They really did a good job of turning the house around. I would recommend this company to anyone that needs any home renovations done. Very good work!

Security Doors questions, answered by experts
Butterfly hinges are one of the most common types of hinges and you can use them all over your home. Though they’re common on doors, cabinets, and shutters, you can even find them on decor, like jewelry boxes, music boxes, and trunks. Doors may have basic butterfly hinges, while the hinges on cabinets and decor may be more ornate.
Yes, barn doors can be too heavy, although the limitation is usually imposed by the mounting hardware you buy and not your home’s framing, unless you’re building an unusually wide door. To keep the weight down, you can opt for 1-by material rather than 2-by material, and choose a softwood like pine rather than a hardwood like maple or oak. Check the weight limits on your mounting hardware, and always attach your door track to studs rather than to drywall anchors.
Smart locks offer around the same level of safety as conventional locks with keys. The best way to secure your door locks is to combine routine locking mechanisms with other home safety features, like lighting, motion sensors, security cameras, and window and door sensors.
Smart locks have the upper hand when it comes to convenience—you won't have to worry about your key not turning in the lock or fumbling around in your bag for your keys—but beyond that, any door with deadbolts will offer a similar degree of security.
Costs range from $500 to $5,000, depending on door type, security features, and labor.
A hollow core door has an average life expectancy of about 20 to 40 years, with most lasting 30 years before they need to be replaced. Doors that are well cared for can last on the longer end, as long as no severe damage occurs.
