"This service was exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't confident about choosing the new look for my living room. I wasn't sure what my "style" was, and what would look good together. I needed a consultant to let me know if the items I was considering would look good together. Amanda called me and we talked about what I liked/didnt like. She had me post pictures from Pinterest and Houzz of rooms I liked. From that she was able to tell me what my style was. She noticed things I never realized before. For example I apparently picked the exact style couch in every picture I posted. As I found furniture I liked I would send her photos and she would let me know if she thought they would go good together. For example she recomended a different coffee table - i needed one that was more substantial to balance the size of the sofa. She also helped me fine-tune the paint colors for my walls - I thought this was the hardest part of designing the room, but I love the results. I was basically looking for someone to guide my choices, but they will also modify their level of service depending on what you need (cost varies depending on service needed). I would positively use them again!! "

"Excellent - I ended up hiring someone to help with shopping and finishing piece - waste of time and money. Jill's service was by far the most useful and best value in my decorating process. "
"Andy from Aqua Terra Sand Blasting is the best! First off we needed to get some old brown paint off a 50 year old cabin up in Maine and Andy was there to help. Now, Aqua Terra Sand Blasting is different from your regular old sand blasting technique. Andy uses recycled glass, which is much more cleaner and environmentally friendly than just using sand. Andy came out right on time and was done within two days and the cabin looked spectacular!! We had no idea how amazing the wood looked underneath that old brown paint. I would definitely recommend Aqua Terra Sand Blasting for any of your cleaning needs."
"Great very punctual and caring overall fantastic have never hired a better crew will definitely hire them for all my home repairs they go about and beyond"
"I worked with Mark who made sure my family had a safe and to code chimney. He even came back to not only make sure everything was set right, but even taught me how to light a wood stove. As a Floridian, it was very much appreciated"
The best method for painting a garage door depends on the door's design and the finish you want to achieve. For the most professional-looking finish, especially on doors with panels or intricate details, a paint sprayer is an excellent choice. It can easily get into hard-to-reach places and provide a smooth, even coat.
If you don't have a sprayer, or if your door is flat, a combination of a roller and a brush is the most effective approach. Use a roller for the large, flat sections to cover the area quickly and efficiently. For the best results, experts recommend a roller with a nap between ⅜ and ¾ inches thick; natural fibers can also help ensure an even coat.
A brush is essential for handling the finer details. Use it to paint grooves, angles, small panels, and the edges of the door where you need more control.
Regardless of the tools you use, it's a good idea to step back after the main application to review your work and use a detail brush to touch up any missed spots.
There are several reasons garage door cables can come off multiple times. The most common reason is that the springs have too much or too little tension and require adjusting. Other causes include track alignment issues that keep the door from operating correctly or smoothly. A damaged winding drum or obstructions in the cable's way can also cause it to come loose.
Fiberglass is considered a favorite garage insulation choice due to its combination of affordability, ease of installation, and overall effectiveness. Fiberglass provides good thermal resistance, helping regulate garage temperatures and minimize heat transfer. Additionally, fiberglass is moisture-resistant, reducing the risk of mold or mildew formation.
No, there should not be a gap between your garage door and the floor. Gaps can make your garage less energy efficient, leading to higher energy bills. They also create an entry point for pests like rodents and insects, as well as rain and melted snow, which can lead to foundation damage or mold issues.
If you have a gap under your garage door, potential causes include an uneven garage floor or worn-out weather stripping. To fix it, you can try several solutions:
Replace the weather stripping: The seal at the bottom of the door may need to be replaced.
Adjust the garage door: You may be able to adjust the closing position on your garage door opener to eliminate the gap.
Inspect the floor: If the concrete floor has shifted or is uneven, it may need to be repaired to create a level surface.
If these solutions do not resolve the issue, it is best to call a garage door repair specialist to inspect the door and floor.
Carriage, sliding, folding, and trackless pivot doors all replace a standard roll-up door. Glass doors and roll-up screens work well when you convert the garage into living space. Match the style to your driveway clearance and climate.
