At ARC Contracting, we want to redefine the experience you have with your sales person, your contractor, and the support you get along the way. ARC Contracting specializes in residential and commercial full-service exterior contracting, including roofing, gutters, soffit, facia, windows, siding, insulation, and solar.

"Typically I don’t write reviews. However, the process of our project was very poorly managed by ARC despite the reassurance that we would have a project manager. We never saw a project manager through the whole process. We had to manage through many issues and rework, from the wrong color siding being put on, to water coming in my kitchen from the roof not being wrapped correctly and nails sticking out of the roof. From the edging not being finished and siding that covered our cable to siding that was cut in corners for some reason to poor calking and beyond. We had to manage and call or email the issues at every step of the way because no one was here managing the project. The final straw was when they were here to finally fix the issues they were nailing siding into a wall and broke the tile in our bathroom. I asked for ½ of the $5K that I had paid to have my shower tiled since the tile was discontinued and it would be roughly $8K to have it redone today. I thought I was being fair, but this is what I got back: “Again, I apologize. It is not an excuse, but with the transition of some key employees things weren't managed correctly. I would be upset if I was in your position. I would have a hard time recommending ARC also. I did talk with management and we will discount $1,000 for the shower with the understanding there won't be a negative review left online. I don't expect a 5 star review online since you didn't' have a 5 star experience. Does that sound fair?” This is not a company that stands behind their work or their word. I would not recommend them as in a previous email I was told: “I am having a hard time to justify a $2,500 discount to my management for a few tiles that may have broken from siding installation.” They MAY have broken? I’m lying? They also asked me to put in an “accent” color where it broke, where there is no other accent tiles and would look horrible. Thank you, but I loved my shower and now it looks horrible and will need to redo the entire shower. But you can’t buy a good review from me as the $1K is not worth it to me (and yes I was told that they have insurance, so they should have it covered). I have attached pictures that show only a portion of the crappy work that we had to have them redo. Shame on you ARC, I went with you despite you being more expensive than another company because of what you promised. Stand behind your word and your work. Very unhappy customer. Wanitta Charnon"

Entry Doors LLC is an established door sales, service, and installation business located in Green Bay, WI servicing residential and commercial customers in Green Bay and surrounding areas. We offer professional service with the experience to complete your project properly. We supply quality products but will install material from big box stores. We are a small family business with 3 employees including myself that is growing from positive referrals. We are looking to grow the business further to provide jobs and create our own solid service brand. We offer free estimates and excellent pricing for our products and services.

"They did a great job explaining why the original spring was not the correct size and also showing how to adjust the tension, etc. with the door opener. We have an unusually large & heavy garage door, so they did have to come back the next day with the appropriate sized spring. Considering they were the only business to both returning my call, waiting one more day for the repair to be done correctly was not a big deal. I will definitely recommend Entry Doors to others and will use them again for future service calls."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall does not necessarily need to be glued to the ceiling, especially when it is properly screwed or nailed into place. Drywall is typically attached to the ceiling joists using screws or nails, ensuring a secure and stable drywall installation

However, in certain situations where additional adhesion is required, construction adhesive can be applied in combination with screws or nails. This is often done for ceilings with specific acoustic or insulation requirements. It's essential to follow local building codes and best practices to determine if adhesive use is necessary for your specific project.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:

  • Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees

  • Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint

  • Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest

  • DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

The person’s skill will affect how many drywall sheets they can hang in one day. Some people can hang 10 or more sheets in a day, while others may only hang six or seven sheets. It also depends on the framing complexity since custom cutting and fitting the drywall can prolong the process.
