"It went pretty good. I had all the materials for them to use. The kick plate was too tall. Will need to find the right size. The front door has a crack in it, which I thought would fill in with the wood filler. It was in a bad spot, so when the stain was applied, it did not fill in. I will clear coat it, add the kick plate & insulation. I will have John will come out again - will look at his coupons & get a list together. Definitely need the porch light replaced soon. We also discussed a possible electrical issue with the porch light - seems the builder /electrician (1988) may have connected the front light switch with the hall bathroom & bedroom lights. I was glad that John was able to schedule me, it was 2 months! John & Wayne were very nice & I will call again soon! "
"went good. pretty satisfied, except they missed installation of a gutter water direct thing on the roof which was quoted, but I was too busy to get back with them at the time to fix. "
"For the price that we paid, I feel that we received a good value. The work was done well and in a somewhat timely manner. There was a delay when the painter had to leave town due to illness in the family. This was unavoidable and Roger communicated with us throughout. Roger's employees are true artist. They came up with affordable solutions for some issues that we had. There are a few places that the paint work was a little sloppy, but considering that we paid about 20% less than the next lowest estimate, we can't complain. The reason that we won't use this company again? The valve that supplies water to our dishwasher broke off during a day early on in the remodel. This was no fault of the crew, just an old valve. The problem is that no one told us this had happened. We turned our dishwasher on and left and when we came back, everything inside, including the end of one of the washer "blades" had melted. I called Roger and we agreed that we would pay to fix the valve and he would pay to replace the damaged dishwasher "blade". He advised me that he had ordered the part, which I had researched and knew to cost around $90. Three weeks later, he said that the part still had not come in. I advised him that I would like to withhold the $125 balance for the completed job until the part was installed. He agreed that was fair. It is 2 months later and we never heard back from Roger about the replacement part. Not only has he not called us, but he has ignored the 2 times that I attempted to contact him to ask about the part. This is extremely unprofessional. If not for that one thing, I would definitely hire him in the future. It's a shame that he ended our contact this way. "
"Good...the last time I had someone out is was an electrician and he replaced a ballister and tried to fix the bathroom light fixture but it was non repairable so I was given an allowance to replace it and now I have a cute light fixture all spanking new."

"Spoke to Ray and he was nice enough to honor the Groupon even though the date was going to expire before we could get the work done, however, he (or someone) was to call and set an appointment and never did. I called and left 2 or 3 messages with no response, and even drove to the business to make sure they were still in business. After that, a man did call to set an appointment. However, on the date he had to change it because of other jobs the company had him on. This happened twice. When he did arrive, we outlined the job and added the ceiling to be painted knowing this might cut down on work completed. He was a nice young man, however (again) in 8 hours all that was completed was the ceiling (and it needs touching up) and a very light coat of primer. I painted the room the next day in 2.5 hours! I just thought professional painters could complete one room in 8 hours. "
Chandelier Installation questions, answered by experts
Generally speaking, you can install one recessed light for every 4 to 6 square feet. A 12x12 room is 144 square feet, which would need 24 to 36 recessed lights. The wattage you use for the light bulbs and the height of your ceilings can also impact the number of recessed lights you need for a 12x12 room.
Recessed lighting comes in hundreds of designs. Modern LED recessed lights have a longer lifespan than traditional incandescent bulbs. You can get integrated wafer canless bulbs that fit flush into the ceiling, even under a joist. In the can vs. canless recessed lighting discussion, both have their merits depending on your budget and ceiling space.
First of all, don’t shop for bargain lights—often, you’ll end up with a faulty or broken strand, full of dead bulbs or less-than-luminous brightness. Choose quality lights that will last you many years—LED lights have been known to last as long as 100,000 hours. Second, plan ahead and purchase lights for next year’s Christmas during this year’s post-holiday sales. Finally, have a vision and a plan—if you know the measurements of your home, including any windows, doors, and outside bushes you wish to light up, you should be able to only purchase the necessary lights and not more than you need.
The average cost to install a light fixture is $600, with a typical range of $200 to $1,100. The total cost depends on several factors, including the type and number of fixtures, wiring requirements, and your location. Additional costs may apply for removing old fixtures or for any necessary electrical or drywall work. Replacing an existing light fixture is generally less expensive than installing a new one because the wiring is already in place.
Projection spotlights offer an alternative (or addition) to Christmas lights. You simply plug in the projection and aim it at the side of your house or garage and watch the lightshow happen.
