"We have wanted to remodel our kitchen/dining/living room space for years, but balked at the complexities involved in trying to make our late seventies split level house into a more open area for entertaining. When we finally decided to take the leap, we were so glad that we connected with Duane and H&H Contracting. Duane was prompt in consulting with us and sent us a bid within a couple of days. He had the experience to handle the improvements that we wanted to make and to suggest things that we might add to the project that would make the look of our home more polished and cohesive. Duane handled permitting, ordering materials, a whole network of subcontractors and all those things that would have stressed us to no end! The project came in very close to budget despite some subfloor issues and changes that came up along the way. We feel like we have a brand new home, and we canâ t wait until we can enjoy entertaining family and friends in this lovely space (if this pandemic ever ends!) You wonâ t regret choosing H&H to update your home!"
"They did a great job replacing the floor of our shed, which had rotted out. They were prompt, courteous, worked hard and fast and worth every penny. I would recommend them for any job."
"Oh my! He did beautiful work for us! Very talented, skilled craftsman. Creative design ideas for all of my flooring and decking. Works hard, fast, and is very reliable. He was here when he said he would be. Even the pizza guy mentioned how gorgeous it all looks."
"There's nobody better, he always got here ahead of time, he's a great guy, he cleaned up his mess every time, he was absolutely the best contractor I ever had."
"Nice guys and fun to work with; could have done a little better job on planning but everything was acceptable and I was able to work around the little missteps."
"CMD was extremely respectful an on point, they worked with me through the whole process of remodel and the work it?s self was amazing, but great to work with and I will only be using them from now on"
"Schneider Construction was easy to have in the house, worked exactly to our specifications and finished the project with attention to every detail. Additionally, we received experienced design assistance, which was invaluable to me."
Adequate storage, workspaces, and energy-efficient systems are key considerations.
The first place you start with any garage remodel, regardless of the project, is with repairs. You want a stable foundation to avoid problems from arising down the road. Once any necessary repairs are addressed, you’ll want to move on to layout changes, like installing new walls, running new electric, plumbing, and HVAC to the space, if required, and then finishing work.
Yes, you can pressure wash epoxy floors, but you must take precautions to avoid damaging the surface. While most epoxy floors can be cleaned with a mop, you might choose to pressure wash if the floor is stained, has ground-in dirt, or is covered with mold or mildew. To do so safely, first soak any stains or dirty areas with a gentle cleanser. Use a lower pressure setting with a gentle nozzle, such as a green, white, or black tip, or a 45-degree angled tip. Keep the spray nozzle at least 18 inches away from the floor to protect the surface. Using a surface cleaner attachment or a rotary scrubber can also help prevent overspray. Be cautious if using a power washer that heats the water, as the combination of heat and pressure may be too powerful and could damage the epoxy coating.
The average cost to install a new garage door is around $1,224, with most homeowners paying between $755 and $1,696. However, the total price can range from $250 to as high as $4,500 depending on several factors. Key cost drivers include the door's size, type, style, and material. For instance, wood or wood composite doors are typically more expensive than vinyl or aluminum options. Insulation also affects the price. Labor costs are often bundled into the total price, but if billed separately, can range from $200 to $500. Due to the complexity and danger, professional installation is recommended.
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.
