"Rob is a nice guy. He's the kind of guy who feels like a friend and I trusted him with my property, gift cards for purchases, and to do a quality job at a fair price. I choose Rob based on his Angie's list referrals and the fact that he was the only contractor who responded and followed up to my query. The tough part about working with Rob is that he is a solo operation (most of the time) so we had to wait several months for him to be available for the job. Fortunately our timeline was flexible so it worked out for us. He did a nice job by calling each month to let us know the status of his other projects and when we might expect to get started. When he started he actually had to take a few days off because he came down with a cold, but again he had good communication skills to let us know when he could resume. This is the challenge of hiring an owner/operator. He did a nice job in retiling our main bathroom. The house had its original tiles on the floor and walls from the 1960's which he had to dig up, smooth out the base, and lay down new tiles. He also installed a new bathroom vanity, 2 mirrors, new light fixture, & towel racks as well as painted the walls and ceiling. He did break the top on our toilet when he moved it out, but he was diligent in getting a replacement part to fix it. He was very good about keeping the worksite in good condition and minimizing the impact it had on other parts of our house. He disposed of garbage, and his fee was much more reasonable than for is to pay our trash service. He then proceeded to do our 2nd bathroom in the basement which was a total redo. This first included ripping up carpeting and removing all items. He put in tiles on floor and around shower, built a shower, installed toilet, vanity, mirror, fan/light, ceiling tiles. He did both bathrooms in 2 months as well as a few other projects including fixing a hole in the ceiling of our kitchen. And Turing in a new storm door. We went over budget which I wasn't as happy about but that was mostly because my husband and I wanted some more expensive items than we initially planned. But the result is we now have 2 beautiful bathrooms the way we wanted and we can enjoy using. Working with Rob is easy. We setup payment plans to spread the payments out over the schedule of the project. His rates are fair and he only bills you for his working time. The projects took lots of time and used skills we didn't have. Rob did so much and was always upfront and honest. I will definitely call Rob for future work."

"I had some serious hail damage and had to have 4 roofs replaced. As Picture Perfect Homes had done a lot of work for me a few years ago, I called on them to do the roofs and a few other jobs. They always work in a timely fashion, clean up everyday, do excellent work and apprise me of upcoming costs. On the rainy days they replaced the screens on my screened in porch, and vacuumed the whole porch, repaired an outlet and other odds and ends. They are also very good company.. Polite and personable I would highly recommend them. The job they did a few years ago was pretty big. Redoing a bathroom, replacing kitchen cabinets and my inside doors and painting. I was very pleased with the finished product."

Doors FAQs, answered by experts

Kick plates are usually installed on the “push” side of a door, but there are plenty of reasons to install them on both sides. Interior kick plates can offer protection from pet scratches, doors being kicked closed, and even kids’ toys during enthusiastic play sessions. Consider what kind of use and abuse your door gets to determine which side or sides to install a kick plate on.

Solid wood is a durable and attractive option for cabinet doors that holds up well against a small amount of moisture. However, solid wood doors will expand and contract, meaning upkeep will be necessary if painted. Particleboard with veneer cabinet doors are cost-effective and can be attractive. MDF cabinet doors offer excellent and predictable workability features. However, both of those options are vulnerable to damage if water finds its way through the veneer or paint finish. 

The best material for door sills depends on durability, aesthetics, and budget. Standard options include wood, metal, and stone. Wood offers a classic look but may require more maintenance. Metal sills, like aluminum or stainless steel, boast durability and resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for modern designs. Stone sills, such as granite or marble, provide elegance and longevity but are more expensive. Ultimately, the choice depends on personal preference and practical considerations.

Longer screws can make a door more secure, but this isn’t a foolproof method for security. Replacing the short screws in your door’s strike plate with screws that are 3 inches long will make it much more difficult for an intruder to force entry by kicking down the door, but it won’t do anything to stop them from picking the lock. 

Yes, new steel doors add value to your home. They improve curb appeal, increase home security, and make your home more energy-efficient. High-quality steel doors are durable, low-maintenance, and insulate well against hot and cold temperatures. Potential buyers often appreciate the added protection and aesthetic upgrade, so new steel doors can help your home stand out and increase its resale value.
