"I met with Ariel Zmijewski to get a quote to side my house and garage and to install two new attic windows. I'm a single woman and homeowner and I have encountered more than my share of contractors who tend to patronize me because I am a woman. I called in several quotes for the siding job on my home and Ariel was the only one who treated me with genuine respect. Of course, I wouldn't have hired him just based on that, but GF also offered a competitive price for the job as well as quality materials. Ariel said it would take about six weeks to get the material and then they would schedule my job and after 5 weeks, Ariel called and said the material was in and would be delivered to my home in two days and they would begin the job the following Monday! Ariel guesstimated the job would take about two weeks, but it actually wound up taking four weeks - the reason being they encountered a couple issues when siding my house. I have an older home and it seems like anything I do in renovating my home causes issues - which is why I have learned it is very important to have competent contractors on the job and that is what I had with GF. Though the job took longer than planned due to these issues, these issues were resolved with fluidity and the end result is amazing! Neighbors and family have complimented me on the look of my home and also on the fellas doing the job - they were impressed at how detailed they were! The crew doing my siding and windows were amazing - ask for Mike, Jeremy and Tom and you will NOT be disappointed. These guys were not only professional in their behavior but real nice down to earth guys! I had a lot of detail work on my front porch and they took great pains to ensure everything looked nice. I baked cookies and had chips and water and pop for them one day and gave them money to buy lunch for themselves another day and really wished I could have done more - these guys work great together! And, Ariel came out to check out the work and monitored the job until it was done. He always returned my phone calls promptly and never acted like I was bothering him. I am going to get the remaining windows replaced on my home in the near future and will happily be using Ariel and GF to do the job! "

Homemade Design (HMD) is America's leading online interior design service that provides a dedicated interior designer to work closely with you, to design and decorate your home for one extremely affordable fixed fee per room based on services required. \nWorking with your HMD interior designer is like having an interior designer best friend who evaluates your existing space, studies images of rooms you love, understands your budget constraints and explores the functional considerations that fit your lifestyle. HMD is the only flat-fee virtual consulting service that allows collaboration at multiple points in the process with our client. We help our clients navigate the design process by breaking it down into a linear process. First we analyze their likes and dislikes in terms of style and color, navigate budget vs. quality challenges and analyze the function of the room. Next we help you choose the major pieces in the room that will determine style and the overall color palette, and then we specify products and sources that fit within those parameters.\nThe design process is not universal to every design firm (or TV show.) Please call or email – we’d love to chat about your project and how we anticipate working with you to create your dream home!
"Not blown away. I provided a good deal of information up-front: floorplans from my builder, exact measurements of room, my design preferences - including several stores I like to shop at to give her an idea of my style. After I had provided all of this, Jill said she'd have my designs to me in about 4 weeks. I did not receive them for at least 8-10 weeks, and that was after several emails to her requesting status of the project. If I wouldn't have prodded I'm not sure how long (if ever) I would have received what was promised. When I did receive my designs, they were floorplans, which was as expected. Along with a page or two of copy-and-pasted pictures of a few possible furniture selection. Which was much less than I expected. Based on the description I expected boards, with color selections, upholstery, etc. This was a big disappointment, especially after waiting 2-3 times longer than she had told me it would take."

"Multiple bids were written for separate phases of the work. Costs came in at or somewhat less of what was priced. A number of times we added things to the work, quite a bit more than we originally planned, although size and scope were not great. Provider consistently showed up when he said he would, on time, stayed late, and was clearly concerned about doing a great job. In some cases, if he was not satisfied with the work, he did it over, e.g. repainting garage doors. His efforts and results were excellent."
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.
The smallest size a standard 2-car garage can be is 20 feet by 20 feet, so at these dimensions, you could reasonably expect to fit two cars inside. However, it’s going to be a tight fit, especially if you have larger SUVs or pickup trucks. For smaller cars, 20 x 20 should be plenty for parking and some space to maneuver around the cars. A larger garage size would be better to ensure you have room to open the doors and transport groceries or other items around the cars.
No, there should not be a gap between your garage door and the floor. Gaps can make your garage less energy efficient, leading to higher energy bills. They also create an entry point for pests like rodents and insects, as well as rain and melted snow, which can lead to foundation damage or mold issues.
If you have a gap under your garage door, potential causes include an uneven garage floor or worn-out weather stripping. To fix it, you can try several solutions:
Replace the weather stripping: The seal at the bottom of the door may need to be replaced.
Adjust the garage door: You may be able to adjust the closing position on your garage door opener to eliminate the gap.
Inspect the floor: If the concrete floor has shifted or is uneven, it may need to be repaired to create a level surface.
If these solutions do not resolve the issue, it is best to call a garage door repair specialist to inspect the door and floor.
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.
Insulating an unheated garage can still be worth it. For instance, insulating an attached garage can help with heat loss from your house in general, and it can also make it easier to store electronics in your garage without worrying about them being exposed to extreme temperatures.
If you use your detached garage as a workspace, insulation can still make a difference. Plus, you can use space heaters and a window unit AC to help condition the space while you work without installing heating.
