Q: Can you trim an overhead garage door screen?

• <div><p>You can trim an overhead garage door screen to fit your garage door opening. This is a particularly helpful hack if you have an irregularly sized garage door opening but are still interested in installing a garage door screen to keep pests and debris out. Trim the garage door screen carefully to avoid unsightly edges or an uneven fit.</p></div>

Q: What are common sunroom issues?

• <div><p>Common problems include leaks, broken glass, and damaged frames. Regular maintenance prevents extensive damage.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to leave a doggy door open?

• <div><p>No, it&rsquo;s not safe to leave a doggy door open. It might be more convenient, especially at night when you just want to lay in bed. However, when you leave it open, it increases the chance of other critters getting in without your knowledge. Also, it leaves your pup unsupervised for hours at a time. </p></div>

Q: Do you have to take window screens down to clean them?

• <div><p>No, but removing window screens will achieve a deeper clean. If you aren&rsquo;t sure how to remove your screens, you can still clean them while in your window. You can follow the same cleaning steps, but you may not be able to get into corners or struggle to clean the entire screen if the window is up high.</p></div>

"After the circuit breaker panel in our garage failed and caught on fire, I contacted Dave Pringle to assess the damage. He was able to start on the project the following day and kept me updated on the progress he made, explaining various codes and how the components worked in the system when I had questions. I found him to be very knowledgeable and friendly in all our conversations. Dave went above and beyond to ensure our house was once again safe and functioning as it was prior to the fire. For the quality of his work and reasonable prices he charged, I would not hesitate to recommend him for any electrical work you may have.
