"I have hired WHL for two jobs, and had an excellent experience both times. The transparency of the process--from the estimate to the build to the cleanup---is most impressive. The crew explains, answers questions, allows choices, and still gets the job done on or ahead of schedule."
"When I’m my radiator upstairs leaked into the dining room, I called John and he took care of rebuilding the wall and making it look good as new. It was a challenging project because it was lathe, furing strips, paneling, and then dry wall. It looks good as new! When my deck needed new boards, I called John. When he ripped off the deck boards, he found half the joists needed replaced and he cared for all of that. Looking to hire him when we start our garage attic renovation."
"Great listener. Phenomenal work ethic. Worked consistently until the job was done, which, unfortunately, was a short timeline. All qualities that are very hard to find nowadays."
"Overall, the work is very good. We were pleased with the end result. It took more time than expected to get the job finished because he's busy, but the work was very nice. "
"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to write this review so that the request to write this review stops popping up. The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit. "
Garage cabinets are different from interior cabinets because they typically hold heavier tools and face more extreme temperature changes since they’re outside your heating and cooling system. For that reason, many homeowners opt for heavy-duty cabinet materials, like metal or steel. However, wood cabinets also work well in a garage for storing lighter items like garden supplies, protective gear, and small tools.
Most garage door rails are fitted for their garage door, in particular. Some manufacturers make adjustable rails, but they’re not universal.
Garage door insulation can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years depending on the type of insulation. Cellulose has the shortest lifespan coming in at between 20 and 30 years, while spray foam, mineral wool, and fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years with proper maintenance.
Humidity plays a role in how long more susceptible insulation materials—like fiberglass—last. Once fiberglass batts reach the 15-year mark, you'll need to routinely inspect your insulation to ensure that it is in mint order.
If push comes to shove, and you need to manually open your garage door, then you should be able to do so. To manually open your garage door, first, make sure that the door is in the down position. You’ll need to unlock your garage door opener’s emergency release mechanism, which is typically a red robe that you can find on the carriage. Once you’ve pulled the cord, you can manually lower the door.
If your garage door is stuck in an open position, consider contacting a professional to safely release the opener.
If you take caution around fragile garage parts, thawing methods shouldn’t cause problems. Avoid using direct sources of heat too close to the garage door, especially rubber parts.
Another spot to avoid heating is the garage door spring. This powerful metal spring can become very cold in winter. Applying heat to a cold spring increases the chances it could break.
