"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!"
"Jim was excellent at advising the work needed and estimating the total time for our door replacement. When he couldn't finish the work the first day, he made sure the door was usable and able to lock. He also showed up early the next day and finished the job to perfection!"
"Jonathan, Joe and the entire crew did a fantastic job replacing our back porch and several other projects throughout the house. Communication was excellent addressing all of our questions and providing great input. They efficiently completed all the jobs and remained on budget. Quality is outstanding and we are very happy with the results. Highly recommended."
"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 are thrilled we chose Evolution Painting! Fabricio and his crew are the absolute best! Our house not only needed to be painted (exterior) - it needed major carpentry work. Front columns, new back stair railing and the garage door frame are just a few of the projects they took care of before they even started the painting process! This crew does impeccable work - they were here during the week of the heat wave and didn't miss a beat! Always on time - always friendly and some of the hardest working guys I've ever seen - never watching a time clock - just focusing on getting the job done perfect! Fabricio paid such attention to detail - I took a walk around after the guys had left for the night - and the yard was spotless. I also noticed - they gave our mailbox, Lamp post and street numbers a fresh coat of paint before they put them back up. Everything looks new again! I would definitely recommend Evolution Painting Co. to everyone in need of painting!"
"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."
Most modern, standard doors are 1 ⅜-inches thick, so you should aim for this thickness unless you're building a door to replace an antique door or fit into a non-standard wall opening. Thickness varies when installing a pocket door or sliding barn door, so a good rule of thumb is to measure your existing door, if possible. For standard doors, you can also measure from the inside of the door to the door stop to gauge the proper thickness.
Leaving vents open but closing doors in unused rooms will probably not save money on your energy bill. Closed doors prevent the natural flow of air throughout the home, which could reduce the efficiency of the overall HVAC system. They could also restrict airflow into and through the return vents, making the HVAC system less efficient.
Continuous hinges are some of the sturdiest hinges available, which makes sense, given that they provide support along the entire side of the door. These hinges are often used for heavy commercial doors, but are impractically expensive and unnecessary for residential use. Among the hinges commonly used in homes, the ball-bearing hinge is the strongest, and it reduces friction to help heavy doors open more smoothly.
Yes, professionals can install eco-friendly exterior doors made from sustainable materials such as bamboo or reclaimed wood. Additionally, doors with energy-efficient insulation, low-VOC finishes, and high-performance glazing contribute to a more sustainable home environment, reducing energy consumption and minimizing ecological impact.
Yes, door hinges can sag over time. This usually happens due to things like repeated use, loose screws, worn hinge pins, or the door's weight pulling on the frame. When hinges sag, you'll often notice the door sticking, dragging, or not latching properly. Tightening the screws or replacing worn parts can usually help to realign the door.
