Spotted Dog Home Improvements, LLC (SDHI) provides professional handyman services for homeowners, property managers, and businesses. Make sure to see our site for more details http://sdhi-llc.com. My name is Andrew Lenius, and I started SDHI after my wife and I moved to the Pittsford area. I am a self-starter who, after 23+ years in the global Information Technology space, needed to get out of the office and away from the computer. I enjoy working with my hands, excel at problem solving, and find it rewarding to help others in my community while still being able to support my family. I’m constantly growing my service skills and have experience in almost all aspects of home and property maintenance (see our service list below along with our project photos page). I’ve built these skills over the past 17+ years of home ownership and assisting family and friends with their projects.

"Andrew came highly recommended. I contacted him for a leaking sink. Before he came over he requested detailed information and a phone photograph. This had three purposes: (1) it allowed him to diagnose the problem; (2) it saved him (and me!) a preliminary visit to assess the situation; and (3) on the basis of the above he gave me a cost estimate. Next thing, he came over, fixed the problem in one single visit. the work was done promptly and efficiently. Andy billed me (the amount of the estimate) and I paid promptly. Thank you, Andy. It was a pleasure doing business with you!"

My service is very wide ranged. I have many clients that just have me do virtually everything from here fall and spring clean up to taking care of there pool aan anything that might come about. Such as a roof jog or a garage they want built. Generally it is only me doing the work but from time to time I might have a helper. I tend to work time and materials but will give bids on jobs. Tends to work out to be a higher number. It's hard to forsee every possibilty in the job. I tend to bill on a weekly basis but if discussed, i will do sooner or when job is complete.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Any level over 17% moisture should be replaced, as this could be a sign that the drywall is too compromised to be considered safe. A contractor or water restoration provider can come out and use a moisture meter to check the moisture level in your drywall. 

If after a visual inspection you’re still unsure about if your drywall is salvageable, a professional reading is the next best option.

You should do a little bit of sanding between adding coats of mud. Knock down any ridges or significantly imperfect areas through sanding, which should help you apply the next coat of mud smoothly. If your first coat of mud is pretty smooth after it dries, a quick sanding is all you’ll need. Don’t forget to wipe away any dust after each sanding process.

Drywall mud should be left to dry for at least 24 hours before sanding, though drying time depends on the thickness of the application, humidity, and room temperature. Thicker layers or projects done in high humidity may require 48 hours or more of drying time. You’ll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and appears light in color throughout. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is key for a smooth, professional-looking finish.

Yes, you can usually add a pocket door to an existing wall if it’s not load-bearing. If you don’t know, check with a professional. Installing a pocket door on a non-load-bearing interior wall is easiest, with no hidden electrical, plumbing, or ductwork. If you don’t know how to check this, hiring a pro to check for you or completing the project is best.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.
