"I gave him two stars because part of the work he did was good, but other parts not so much. He came back to fix it but even thou it looks better, it does not look very professional."

"This was our first time using Apollo Insulation and Geremy and Dennis did an excellent job removing our old (rodent droppings and urine) insulation. They disinfected and repaired any damage caused by the rodents. New insulation was blown in and we couldnâ t be happier. From the initial inspection and quote Geremy was on top of keeping us informed on what would be done to complete the job. Apollo Insulation cleaned up behind them inside and outside leaving our home with no mess. The price was very reasonable and we were very pleased and satisfied with the quality of the work. I highly recommend Apollo Insulation for any of your insulation needs. Very hardworking and professional service company. Bill and Anne G Wayne, Maine"

"Generations Custom Homes completely rebuilt and redesigned two very large decks and one small one so I could get my house on Mount Desert ready to sale. Ricky Sprague, the owner, was very fair with his estimates, kept me apprised of progress or setbacks, and worked with me to keep costs down. The crew was wonderful and worked long hours to make sure the work was done, as promised, with two months. The decks look elegant and impressive and beautifully built. It was a pleasure to work with people who cared about quality and their reputation. I cannot recommend them highly enough. "

"David figured out a challenging project on a cabinet so old that its hinges are no longer available. He was courteous, professional and punctual. I am grateful that his creative thinking and stick-to-itiveness resulted in a cabinet door that is working again! Thank you, David!!!"

If I'm not happy with it, you're not going to be happy with it. I like to do the best. There is no greater feeling than coming into a room, seeing a disaster, and then totally turning it around.

"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."

Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts

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.

Spacing a door is tricky since you need to leave enough of a gap for the door to move freely and not get stuck when the slab and frame contract and expand in dry and humid conditions. The ideal gap between a doorframe and slab is 1/8 of an inch. If the gap is any larger, the door will feel drafty. But if the gap is any smaller, the slab can get stuck due to weather changes.

Most modern door knobs will all fit in standard, modern doors, so if you know your door was made in the last 50 years or so, you should be fine buying a standard replacement door knob. The only exception would be a thumb latch handleset for an exterior door, as this type of door knob may not fit your door without drilling a mounting hole for the bottom of the handle. Antique or custom doors might also have different sizes and knob mounting holes, so call in a professional if you don’t believe your door is a standard one.

Both weather stripping and door sweeps work together to increase your home's energy efficiency. Weather stripping is installed on the sides and top of the door frame, while sweeps are installed on the bottom of the door. While different types of weather stripping keep out moisture and seal air leaks, sweeps can also prevent pests and sounds from entering the home.

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.
