"Brian and his team did a fantastic job on our home addition. Communication was excellent from start to finish, the quality of the work was great, and they stayed on top of the timeline. One thing I really appreciated was how respectful Brian, his crew, and all of his subcontractors were of our home and property throughout the entire project. Everyone he brought in was professional and did quality work. I would absolutely use Brian again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable contractor who communicates well and does what he says he’s going to do."
"Willy did a fabulous job on our bathroom remodel! He was professional, courteous and knowledgeable with regard to all aspects of the job. The tile work was exceptional. We would hire him again!"

"They are awesome; we actually are still using them for other projects. They also have done several other projects in the past. Their charges have been very reasonable. Their first project was completing a house siding job that another contractor walked off from before finishing. They also painted and trimmed the house as well as putting siding on the garage. Now they are doing my back patio where they are replacing the ceiling panels, painting, caulking and sealing. He also is going to replace the major trim facing the south on our house. I highly recommend him."
Garages are often equipped with lighting, electrical boxes, and sometimes even heating and cooling, while carports rarely have utilities. A garage is an enclosed structure that can lock and usually has an automatic door. A carport is often wood or plastic and is designed only to protect a car from elements like rain, snow, and hail. Carports are commonly seen on property where an attached garage is unfeasible but can be a cost-effective solution for car protection for anyone without a completed garage.
New garage doors are often worth the investment because they improve the appearance of your home, make it more secure, and add to your property value. Installing a new garage door costs $1,200 on average, but you’ll have greater peace of mind that your garage door will function properly and keep your home safe. If you sell your home shortly after replacing your garage door, you’re expected to see close to a 100% return on investment, which is significantly higher than most home improvement projects and almost instantly makes the project worthwhile.
We recommend plywood and solid wood. Particleboard and MDF (medium-density fiberboard) are often too weak to hold significant loads, and could sag or deform under pressure. Plywood or solid wood are meant to last, and can handle the weight of several large items. If you want to spend a little more for a moisture-resistant material, you can consider using steel.
If you open your garage manually, you don’t need sensors. If you have an automatic garage door opener, sensors are required by law. The federal law UL 325 mandates that all residential garage door openers in the U.S. must include sensors. Designed to prevent accidents and reduce the risk of entrapment, the sensors should be able to reverse the motion of the garage door within two seconds of detecting an obstruction. The sensors are there to keep you, your family, and your belongings safe from a door that might otherwise come down too hard or too fast.
Adequate storage, workspaces, and energy-efficient systems are key considerations.
