No project is too small. If you need something fixed, something moved, something installed, to you it isn’t too small of a project. You wouldn’t call a carpenter to fix a loose door hinge, you’d call a HANDYMAN. You wouldn’t call an electrician to install that new ceiling fan, you’d call a HANDYMAN. No matter what your project is, just call us and see how simple things can be.

"The Smart Home features they installed, such as thermostat and door locks, etc. do not always work. For example, the Honeywell thermostat can no longer be operated from our phones and is difficult to install. Remote door locks are also unpredictable."

"We have a large solar panel system that is about 10 years old. Our inverter went out about 2 months ago and Acheivers was two weeks or more coming to troubleshoot why our panels weren’t working. They sent another gentleman a week later who diagnosed the inverter as the problem and he would be back as soon as he got the part. And now….CRICKETS!!! We have called the business three times and they say Jerry Adams will call us back because he’s on the road (whatever that means) and nothing, no phone call, no texts….NOTHING! The third time we called, Friday, July 26,2024, I spoke to Jerry’s daughter who said I should call him because he was on the road. She gave me his number, I called and he never answered….it sent me to voice mail and the voice mail was full. I called acheiver’s store again this morning, July 29, 2024, and told them Jerry’s mailbox as full so I could not leave a voicemail and the telephone anawering lady told me, “His mailbox is not full, he doesn’t have it setup.” WHAT?????? I asked her how I was supposed to get in touch with him and she asked did I call him again today. By this point I was losing patience and reminded her that we paid them to install and maintain these panels so I shouldn’t have to call over and over and over. She was a bit short with me by this time and told me she didn’t have any knowledge of my solar panels, like I had made any indication that I thought she did. But, she did say she would call Jerry Adams and have him call me…..once again CRICKETS!"

"Ordered and paid for custom awning that was to take 5 weeks. Its now been 16 weeks and still waiting. Owner is at best noncommunicable and at worst, rude. I'm now wondering if this is a scam and not a real business."

Doors questions, answered by experts

You can determine what size storm door you need by measuring for the storm door. Take the width at the top, middle, and bottom of either your front door or an existing storm door, then measure the height on the left, center, and right of the door. Buy a storm door that matches your measurements' smallest width and shortest height.

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. 

No, exterior doors don’t need to be prehung, although choosing a door that is prehung makes the installation process far easier. Installing an exterior door that isn’t prehung requires carefully maneuvering the heavy door into place in your door frame, making sure it’s level and plumb on all sides, and then attaching the hinges so that they’re perfectly level and are affixed to the right part of your frame and door. Prehung exterior doors are far more DIY-friendly.

The L marking on a door closer stands for latch speed and the S marking stands for swing speed. These two letters inform what part of the door closer you may be adjusting. The latch speed being the short final swing the door makes before closing and the swing speed being the long swing of the door when closing.

You put shims between the three-sided frame to which the door hinges are attached and the framing of the rough wall opening. Using shims like this will center your door in the wall opening and allows you to make small adjustments to get your door plumb and level for smooth operation. Your shims and the gap they fill will be covered when you install door trim, so don’t worry too much about the appearance.
