"I have used the services of John Adams/101 Building Services for my home and had great results.ย  Our church needed some exterior repair and I asked John to give us an estimate for the work.ย  After I received his estimate we met at the church and discussed exactly what needed to be done.
John not only did a quality job for each of the tasks on the list, he noticed some additional related items that needed work and, after checking with me, repaired those also.ย  For example, he powerwashed much more than the portico and steps that we contracted for.ย  While he had his gear hooked up, he also power washed the front walkway and back entryway.ย  He also repaired damage to two additional windows.
We have a small church with a limited budget.ย  John refused to accept any more in payment than what was initially agreed.ย  He said the additional work was his gift to the church.ย  Overall, we were extremely happy with the quality of John's work and appreciate his willingness to go the extra mile.

"Awesome work for a reasonable price. Mason and Tony were communicative and prompt with all services rendered. A larger company quoted me 5 days to complete the remodel in my house but Calypso got it done in half that time and followed up with me after. Can't recommend enough. Thanks guys!"

"The work went well. ย They did all this work during different contracts as I was doing some of the work myself. ย They showed up when expected, did the work to a high quality and the estimate was right on. ย They even called their supplier on speaker phone with me right there so that I could hear the quote for materials. ย Job site was left clean and I was even sent pictures of the roof during and after the work!"

"I could not be happier with the job Nick did! This was not an easy task โ€“ I had over 20 pieces of artwork and a shelf to be hung, and he did it all perfectly in three hours. Communication was excellent. I would definitely recommend this company's work!"

"The man I talked to was very professional and timely. However, he explained that this particular job was beyond the scope of what their company does. I would certainly use them on another 'issue'.

Garages questions, answered by experts

Yes. Paint will protect your garage floors, making them more resistant to water, mold, mildew, and oil stains. Depending on your paint choice, painted surfaces are easier to clean and maintain.

It is typically cheaper to build a garage than to buy a prefab one if you can provide most of the labor yourself. If you plan to hire a contractor for the entire build, a prefab garage or kit will likely be less expensive. However, even with a garage kit, you may still need to hire professionals to install the foundation, concrete floor, and handle electrical and plumbing work. If you are not an experienced builder, it can be a worthwhile investment to hire a local garage builder who can manage all aspects of the project, including coordinating other necessary professionals.

The best paint for a garage door depends on the door's material, the desired finish, and durability requirements.

Paint Type

The type of paint you need often depends on the material of your garage door:

  • Aluminum Doors: Typically require exterior acrylic paint.

  • Vinyl and Wood Doors: Exterior latex paint is usually recommended.

  • Steel Doors: Professionals often use latex or oil-based paint.

You can choose between acrylic, oil-based, and latex paints. Acrylic paint offers excellent UV and weather resistance and dries quickly, but may require multiple coats. Oil-based paints are very durable and may only need one coat, but they dry slowly and emit more VOCs. Latex paint is available in a wide range of colors and is forgiving to apply, but it can crack over time and may require a primer for even coverage. For an eco-friendly option, consider acrylic latex paint.

Paint Finish

You have a wide variety of finishes to choose from, including semi-gloss, gloss, satin, eggshell, and matte. The choice is largely based on personal preference, but many people opt for a semi-gloss or gloss finish. These finishes dry to a hard, durable surface that stands up well to humidity and regular wear and tear.

Regardless of the type or finish, it's crucial to use a quality exterior paint that can withstand the elements. Using a primer before painting will ensure better adhesion and a more even, long-lasting result.

It’s possible to use a torch to melt ice on your garage door, but we don’t recommend it. It’s very easy to bring the flame too close to the door, which can melt the weather stripping or even the garage door itself. You’ll melt ice quickly with a torch, but the damage you’re likely to cause can end up costing you a few hundred dollars to fix, which isn’t worth it. Instead, we recommend pouring hot water over the frozen area or using a less intense heat source, like a hair dryer or space heater.

You don’t need a garage door opener unless you need or desire the convenience they offer. While you may be able to open some garage doors manually, having a garage door opener makes life a lot easier. There is an exception, though—a motorized opener is an absolute must if you have a two-car garage (or larger), as the door will be too heavy for the average person to lift on their own.
