Garage doors
What to tell us about your garage door
What it is doing
Will not open, stops partway, reverses, is noisy or hangs crooked.
The opener
Whether the opener runs but the door does not move, or nothing happens at all.
The size
Whether it is a single or a double door.
What you want
The current door repaired, or a new one.
Repair or replace
What decides it
Panels damaged across the door
Dented, cracked or warped panels across the door can make a new door the better fix.
One damaged section
That can be a panel repair, with the rest of the door kept.
Parts keep failing
A door that has needed repair after repair is where a new door gets weighed against another fix.
Symptoms
What the door is doing, and the part behind it
A loud bang, then a door that will not lift
A broken spring. It is replaced with a new spring sized for the door.
Hanging low on one side
A frayed or snapped lift cable on that side, which is replaced.
Grinding or rattling as it moves
Worn rollers or loose hinges, which are replaced.
Jammed or leaning out of the opening
The door has come off its track, or a track section is bent. The door is set back and the track repaired or replaced.
Stopping partway up
The travel or force setting on the opener is adjusted, or a spring that has lost strength is replaced.
Openers
Opener repair or a new opener
It hums or clicks but the door stays put
The opener is trying to run. The fault can be in the opener or in the door it is pulling, and either is repaired.
Nothing happens at the remote or the button
That is an opener-side fault, repaired or solved with a new opener.
With a new door
A new opener can be fitted at the same time as a new door.
New doors
What a new door needs from the opening
A new door is measured to the opening: its width and height, the headroom above it for the track and spring, and the room at each side for the vertical tracks. An opener also needs space on the ceiling behind the door, so tell us if storage racks or lights hang near where the track runs.
Gutters
Gutter repair and new gutters in Holmes County
Gutters that sag, leak at the corners or pull away from the fascia are repaired: hangers reset, joints resealed, loose sections refastened. When a run is failing along most of its length, new seamless gutters replace it, and the old gutters are hauled away. Commercial buildings get the same work, around business hours.
A repair is quoted on the joints, hangers or sections involved. New gutters follow the length of roof edge and the number of corners and downspouts.
Cleaning
Done by hand, with the downspouts flushed and the debris taken away.
Guards
Fitted over existing gutters once they are cleaned and repaired.
Downspouts
Moved, extended or added so water lands away from the house. Nothing is run underground.
Storm damage
The repair quote is written so it can go to an insurer.
Gutter style
The 6-inch standard size or half-round aluminum or copper, in a color to match the trim.
Porches and outbuildings
A porch roof or workshop can take its own run and downspout.
Water behind the gutter
Its height and slope are reset so roof water drops into it.
Rentals
Landlords and property managers can list several addresses in one request, to be looked at on one visit.
Wire shelving
Laundry, utility and closet shelving
We supply wire shelving and install it, for homeowners, builders and businesses. Name each room and what it holds; the job grows with each room and wall you add.
Laundry rooms
Shelving over the washer and dryer, with a rail for hanging clothes.
Utility and storage rooms
Shelves for bins, boxes and supplies.
Reach-in closets
A shelf and rod layout for what hangs and what sits above it.
Walk-in closets
Shelving on several walls, with long and double hanging.
Pantries
Levels spaced for cans, boxes and small appliances.
Garages
Wall shelving placed clear of the door track and the opener.
Fixed or adjustable
Fixed shelving, or shelf-and-rail that can be moved later. One room or the whole house goes on one quote.
Builders
New homes shelved before move-in.
Linen closets
Shelves only, spaced for towels and sheets.
Doors that swing in
A closet or pantry door that opens into the room takes space the shelving has to clear.
Everyday reach
What you use every day can sit between waist and eye height, with extras up top.
Top shelf height
Set where it can be reached from the floor or a step stool.
Blower door testing
Testing a newly built Holmes County house
The Florida energy code puts Holmes County in Climate Zone 2, with a limit of 7 air changes per hour at 50 pascals for a new house. A house over the limit has its leaks corrected and is tested again, so booking before your deadline leaves room for a retest.
When to book
Once the last pipe, wire, vent and duct opening through the shell is made.
Booking details
The address, the permit number, the ready date and a site contact.
The test itself
A fan in an exterior doorway holds the house at the test pressure while the leakage is measured.
Finishes
Paint, floors, trim and cabinets do not change the reading.
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.
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.
Additions
Additions and alterations under 85% of the building envelope are an exception.
Test-day setup
Exterior windows and doors closed but not taped, interior doors open, dampers closed, and heating and cooling off with the registers open.
