"I was very pleased with how fast they got the job done. Their professionalism. They did a great job. This was my son's house. They also came to my house. Again great job. They went beyond what I expected. Couldn't figure out the fan in bathroom, so decided it was a bad fan. I gave them the receipt, they went and got a new one and it worked. They didn't charge me anymore then what they quoted. I would recommend them for sure. "

I have spent the last seven years learning and perfecting the services I offer. Customer Service, quality and efficiency are what I strive for. I graduated college in 2020 with a degree in marketing and a certificate in professional sales. After graduating I did various jobs until my friend convinced me to try framing restaurants. That experience sparked a passion working with my hands. I told myself I would further my skills and use what I learned in college to form my own business. I am not your average handyman. I had a long term goal that has come to fruition, and you will be treated with the utmost respect and professionalism. I am building a stellar reputation. If I take on a job I will always complete it to your satisfaction, and I will always be honest if I do not feel confident!

"Brandon replaced my water heater. He did an excellent job. He went under the house to fix some duct work. Plus he did a dump run for me. Very happy with Brandon. "

Security Doors questions, answered by experts

You can often fit a new door slab into an old frame as long as the frame’s in decent shape. The frame needs to be solid, square, and free of warping or rot. The new door has to match the old one in width, height, and thickness, and the hinge and knob placements need to line up or be adjusted carefully. However, if your frame is damaged, swapping just the door won’t cut it. In that case, replacing the entire unit would be the best move for a smooth, secure installation.

The width of your door jamb should match your wall thickness exactly, so it depends on your wall. For standard door openings, the width is equal to the width of a 2-by-4-inch  stud, plus the width of the drywall on both sides—about 1/2 inch each—which comes out to 4 9/16 inches. Block walls and framed walls that use 2-by-6-inch framing require a door jamb that’s 6 9/16 inches. You should always measure your finished wall thickness to get an accurate width for your door jamb material.

The best place to install a dog door is on an exterior door that leads to a fenced-in area of your rear yard. This position will let your dog go in and out as they need and still keep them safe in your yard when they’re outside. You should plan on installing the bottom of the doggie door a minimum of 3 inches above the bottom of your exterior door to maintain the structural integrity of the door, and never cut out a hole within 3 inches of exterior door glass.

Adding a doggie door can allow a burglar access to knobs and locks on your door. If your pet door doesn’t come with an alarm, you can add a weight sensor alarm that will trip if anything heavier than your pet enters through it. Adding a motion sensor light to the room your pet door is in can also help deter burglars.

Residential exterior doors should swing inward. While this cuts into your living space and prevents you from putting furniture near the inside of your door, it also means that the hinges will only be accessible from the interior. Hinges that sit on the outside of your home leave your property far less secure, as someone looking to get in could simply unscrew them and remove your door. Additionally, inswing exterior doors will be operable even if you have snow or other obstructions outside.
