Wire shelving for the garage
Garage walls can take wire shelving that keeps tools, bins and supplies up off the floor. Garage shelving can be deeper than closet shelving, so it holds bins and larger things. Shelf runs are measured to the wall and set at heights that work for you. When you ask for a quote, tell us which walls you want shelving on and what you plan to store.
Planning
Garage wall shelving around the car and the door
Where the car parks
Shelving is placed so car doors still open and the parking space stays clear.
The door and opener
Shelving stays clear of the garage door tracks and the opener, so the door can travel its full path.
What it holds
Setting garage shelves for what goes on them
Storage bins
Shelves spaced for the height of the bins you use, with the heaviest ones low.
Paint and chemicals
A shelf at eye level or lower keeps cans where labels can be read.
Seasonal things
Holiday boxes and gear you use a few times a year can go on the top shelf.
Coolers and sports gear
A low shelf with room above it for bulky gear.
Ladders and long tools
These can stay on the floor or the wall, with the shelving set around them.
Garden supplies
Bags of soil and garden tools can go on a low shelf near the door.
Cleaning supplies
A shelf near the door into the house for cleaning supplies and paper goods.
Pet supplies
Food bags and bowls on a low shelf.
Shoes and boots
A low shelf by the door into the house.
Fixed or adjustable
Two kinds of shelving
Tell us which walls you want on rails.
Fixed
Set at one height and left there, for things that stay the same size.
Shelf-and-rail
Shelves hang from rails on the wall and can move as what you keep in the garage changes.
Laundry rooms
Shelving over the washer and dryer
A shelf run above the washer and dryer keeps detergent and supplies off the machines, set high enough for a top-loading lid or a front-loading door to open under it. A hanging rail next to or under the shelf takes shirts straight from the dryer. A laundry room that doubles as a pantry or storage room can take shelving on its other walls too.
Utility rooms
Utility and storage room shelving
Utility rooms and storage rooms get the same wire shelving, fixed or on rails, for supplies, tools and boxes, and they can go on the same quote as the garage. Tell us what else is in the room, such as an air handler or a sink.
Garage doors
The garage door itself
We repair residential garage doors, install new ones and handle commercial and roll-up doors. Tell us what the door does and whether it is a single or a double. A repair is quoted on the failed parts. A new door is quoted on the size of the opening and whether an opener goes with it.
Reversing
A door that reverses before it closes has sensors out of line or failed, and they are realigned or replaced.
Worn seals
Bottom, side and top weather seals are replaced when they are torn or flattened.
Springs
A broken spring is replaced with a new one.
Noise and tracks
Worn rollers and hinges are replaced, and bent track is repaired or replaced.
Openers
An opener that hums or does nothing is repaired or replaced.
Panels
A dented or cracked section is repaired when the damage is limited to it.
Detached garages
A detached garage or workshop door gets the same repair and replacement work.
Stopping partway
The travel or force setting on the opener is adjusted, or a spring that has lost strength is replaced.
Hanging crooked
A frayed or snapped cable on the low side is replaced so the door sits level.
Gutters
Gutters in Franklin County
Gutter sections knocked loose in a storm are reattached or replaced, and the repair quote is written so it can be passed to an insurer. Houses and commercial buildings are both covered, with business work scheduled around its open hours.
Tell us whether it is a house or a business, which roof edges are involved, and whether the gutters leak, sag, overflow or are missing. A new-gutter quote follows the length of those edges and the number of corners and downspouts.
New gutters
Seamless runs formed on site, in the 6-inch standard size or half-round aluminum or copper, in a color to match the trim.
Replacement
Old gutters are taken down and hauled away.
Cleaning and guards
Gutters cleaned by hand with downspouts flushed, and guards fitted over gutters that are clean and sound.
Downspouts
Moved, extended or added, above ground only.
Rentals
Several addresses can be sent together and looked at on one visit.
Porches and outbuildings
Porch roofs, carports and detached garages can get their own runs.
Water behind the gutter
Its height and slope are reset so roof water drops into it.
Sagging runs
Hangers are reset, with more added where they were too far apart.
Rust along a whole run
A run rusted through in several places is quoted as new gutter rather than patched.
Blower door testing
Getting a new Franklin County home ready for its test
Franklin County is in Climate Zone 2, where the Florida energy code limit for a new house is 7 air changes per hour at 50 pascals. Book once every opening through the shell is made, and send the address, permit number, ready date and a site contact.
Windows and doors
Exterior windows and doors closed but not sealed, and interior doors open.
Fireplace and dampers
Fireplace and stove doors closed, and exhaust, intake and flue dampers closed.
Heating and cooling
Equipment off, with supply and return registers fully open.
If it does not pass
The leaks are corrected and the house is tested again.
Finishes
Paint, floors and cabinets do not change the reading.
Several houses
Each house a builder books is tested on its own and gets its own result.
A slipped date
Call, and a new test date is set.
The test itself
A fan in an exterior doorway holds the house at the test pressure while the leakage is measured.
Additions
Additions and alterations under 85% of the building envelope are an exception.
Attic and garage
A vented attic and an unheated attached garage are outside the test. An attic sealed at the roof deck is measured with the house.
Owner-builders
An owner running the build books the same way a builder does.
