"John Mills, the owner, was prompt in his response to my inquiry. He visited my house and provided me with options and suggestion. He quoted the job promptly as well. The Venture crew showed up as expected. Bob's crew was very professional and organized. They were respectful of my property and protected the work area as much as possible. The sliding door and windows quality and installation workmanship are exceptional. After the job was completed, they cleaned the work areas of any debris and extra material. The addition of these Venture products makes my home as beautiful and livable as I had envisioned it would be. Thanks, Venture."
"Cold air was leaking in under the doors of our 19th century front door threshold. Mr. Phalan devised a way to seal the leaky areas without marring the solid wood doors. He was communicative about scheduling, costs, timing and offers multiple solutions to tackle the problem. He also installed study closet shelves in 2 areas. We are definitely pleased with Phalan Construction and will be calling Bob again!"

"Had the Collazo crew come out to custom make and install shelving in a tight space in my bathroom. It came out better then I could have imagined. They really outside themselves. Definitely will be calling them back for my next project."
"The crew did a great job, prompt (if not early), hard working, and cleaned up nicely every day. Although communication was a bit difficult, we persevered with an interpreter program on our phones. The windows are beautiful, and the new front door is awesome. Everything is installed properly and works great!"

"We hire them to paint the house which needed painting. Last done about 15 years earlier. There was a lot of of carpentry that also needed to be done. We got about eight estimates ranging from very low to ridiculously high. They came in in the middle. We were very impressed with their professionalism, punctuality and thoroughness. Evelyn, who was their lead, came and went over everything in detail. She stayed in contact with us throughout the entire project. When there was something that they had not anticipated during their initial evaluation, she contacted us and worked out a plan. They were very prompt. They started at 7:30 and ended 7:30 in the evening. This despite an incredibly hot week. The house looks fantastic. Would highly recommend."
"Patrick and team worked on an interior painting project to paint doors, trims, walls and ceiling. They did an awesome job. Patrick was very detail oriented and ensured all steps are followed in the process to get the best out come with clean looking finish. They were very independent and moved the stuff around where needed and kept the work going. Very happy with their work and would hire again or refer to friends and family."
Yes, basic dusting of doors, door hardware, and door glass is usually included when you hire a house cleaner to clean your home. A house cleaner may also vacuum door frames or clean tracks in sliding doors if these tasks are requested. However, house cleaners generally will not touch up scuffs or other markings on doors. Consider hiring someone who repairs doors to handle these issues for you instead.
Sliding doors and pocket doors are both great space savers, but they work a bit differently. A sliding door moves along a track and is always visible, sliding next to a wall or another door. On the other hand, a pocket door slides into a slot in the wall, hiding away completely when it's open. This makes pocket doors a perfect choice if you're looking to maximize every inch of floor space, unlike sliding doors that can still take up some room even when they're open.
The best material depends on what’s more important to you: Cost? Durability? Looks? Steel cellar doors are tough, water-resistant, and heavy, while fiberglass or composite doors can give you the outdoor aesthetics you crave. Most people favor steel because of its strength against storms, but steel is also one of the more costly options.
The vast majority of hinges are symmetrical, and either side of the hinge can go on the door or the frame. Occasionally, you'll find a hinge specifically made for right or left-handed doors with different attachment hardware or larger plates on one side. In most cases, the large side of the hinge goes on the frame.
It is possible to install hinges backward, so be careful when placing them. Position the hinge so that the hinge pin faces the direction the door will swing. For example, if you're standing on the side the door will open into, the pin should be visible. Be extra careful when installing exterior doors, as placing the hinges on the outside for an outward-facing door makes your home much easier to break into.
If your patio door is worn and outdated, replacing it could be well worth the money—especially if you plan to sell your home anytime soon. An updated patio door will catch the eye of potential buyers, while a dingy one with peeling paint will likely be off-putting. A new patio door can also improve your home’s security, lower energy costs, and decrease the noise from outside. Ultimately, your choice will come down to the current state of your patio door and your replacement budget.
