Before the visit

Details that shape the layout

  • What you store

    Folded clothes, shoes, long coats, canned goods or cleaning supplies each call for different shelf spacing.

  • Who uses it

    Shelf and rod heights can be set for the people who reach them every day.

  • Open wall

    Doors, including ones that swing into the room, windows and light switches take wall space the shelving has to work around.

  • Baskets and bins

    If you keep things in baskets or bins, give their height so the shelves can be spaced for them.

Closets

Hanging and shelf space in a Washington County closet

Closet shelving is a split between hanging space and shelf space, and the clothes decide it.

  • Long hanging

    Coats, dresses and robes need one rod set high with open space below it.

  • Double hanging

    Shirts, skirts and folded pants fit on two rods, one above the other, which doubles the hanging along that stretch of wall.

  • Shelf over the rod

    A shelf above each rod holds sweaters, hats and boxes.

  • Reach-in ends

    In a reach-in closet the ends of the rod sit behind the door frame, so shelves there suit things you reach for less.

  • Shoes

    Shoe shelves can sit low along the floor of a walk-in, or above the hanging.

Pantry and laundry

Pantry and laundry room layouts

  • Tall things low

    The lower pantry shelves can be spaced wider for small appliances, bulk packs and tall boxes.

  • Cans and jars higher

    Tighter spacing higher up keeps rows of cans and jars from wasting height.

  • Everyday reach

    What you use every day can sit between waist and eye height, with extras up top.

  • Washer lids and doors

    Shelving over the machines is set high enough for a top-loading lid or a front-loading door to open.

  • Brooms and mops

    A stretch of pantry or laundry wall can stay open for a broom, mop or vacuum.

Other rooms

Garage, utility and storage room shelving

The size of the job follows the number of rooms and walls and the length of each shelf run.

  • Garages

    Garage wall shelving holds bins and tools off the floor and is kept clear of the door track and opener.

  • Utility and storage rooms

    Shelves for supplies and boxes.

  • Commercial storage

    Back rooms and storage areas in commercial buildings are shelved too.

  • Sagging shelves

    Old shelving that sags or has pulled away from the wall can be replaced with new wire shelving, with a new layout if the room is used differently now.

  • Top shelf height

    Set where it can be reached from the floor or a step stool.

Garage doors

Openers, sensors and doors in Washington County

Garage door work starts from the symptom you can see or hear. Tell us which one fits, and whether it is a single or a double door. A repair quote covers the failed parts. A new door is priced on its size and whether a new opener goes with it.

  • The remote or wall button does nothing

    The fault is on the opener side. The opener is repaired, or a new opener is installed.

  • The door goes back up

    Safety sensors that are out of line or have failed are realigned or replaced.

  • A bang and a door too heavy to lift

    A broken spring. It is replaced with a new spring.

  • Rattling or scraping

    Worn rollers and hinges are replaced.

  • Crooked or low on one side

    A frayed or snapped cable on that side is replaced.

  • Off the track

    The door is set back and bent track sections are repaired or replaced.

  • Drafts at the bottom or sides

    Worn weather seals are replaced.

  • Commercial doors

    Roll-up and commercial doors on businesses are repaired or replaced too.

  • Stopping partway

    The travel or force setting on the opener is adjusted, or a spring that has lost strength is replaced.

  • One dented panel

    Repaired when the damage stays in that section.

Gutters

Gutters for Washington County homes and businesses

We install seamless gutters formed on site to each roof edge, in the 6-inch standard size or in half-round aluminum or copper, with colors matched to the trim. Gutters on offices, shops and warehouses are sized to the roof and booked around business hours. Say whether the gutters leak, sag, overflow or are missing, and on which side of the building. Scope grows with each extra corner, downspout and roof edge.

  • Repair

    Leaking joints are resealed and sagging runs rehung.

  • Replacement

    Gutters that have failed along their length are replaced, and the old ones hauled away.

  • Cleaning and guards

    Cleaning is done by hand. Guards go over gutters that are clean and repaired.

  • Downspouts

    Moved, extended or added. The work stops at the downspout, above ground.

  • Storm damage

    Loose sections are reattached or replaced, and the repair quote is written so it can go to an insurer.

  • Porches and outbuildings

    Porches, carports and detached garages can get their own runs and downspouts.

  • Rentals

    Property managers can list several addresses in one request, to be looked at on one visit.

  • Water behind the gutter

    Its height and slope are reset so roof water drops into it.

Blower door testing

New Washington County homes and the air leakage test

Washington County is in Climate Zone 2. A newly built house there must test at no more than 7 air changes per hour at 50 pascals under the Florida energy code. The test can be booked once every opening through the shell is made. A fan fitted in an exterior doorway holds the house at the test pressure while the leakage is measured.

  • Vented attic

    A vented attic is outside the test. An attic sealed and insulated at the roof deck is opened to the house and measured.

  • Attached garage

    An unheated, uncooled attached garage is outside the test, while the wall and door between it and the house are part of it.

  • A house over the limit

    Its leaks are corrected and it is tested again.

  • What to send

    The address, the permit number, the ready date and a site contact.

  • Finishes

    Paint, flooring and cabinets do not change the reading.

  • A slipped date

    Call, and a new test date is set.

  • Several houses

    Each house a builder books is tested on its own and gets its own result.

  • Additions

    Additions and alterations under 85% of the building envelope are an exception.

FAQ

Common questions

Have another question? Call (850) 819-6031.

What should I measure before asking about shelving?
Nothing, if you would rather not, because measurements are taken at the property visit. If you want to include some, the width of each wall that will get shelving is the most useful.
Can a linen closet get wire shelving?
Yes. A linen closet gets shelves only, spaced for folded towels and sheets.
Can shelf heights be changed after installation?
With an adjustable shelf-and-rail system, yes: the shelves lift off and move up or down the rails. Fixed shelving stays at the heights it was set to.
Do I buy the shelving myself?
No. Big Bend Services, Inc. supplies the wire shelving, so there is nothing to pick up or order first.
Can a builder have a whole house shelved?
Yes. Every closet, the pantry and the laundry room of a new home can go on one quote before move-in, and a builder with several houses can send them together.
Does a walk-in closet need shelving on every wall?
No. Shelving can go on one, two or three walls, leaving the rest open for a dresser, a mirror or a window. Tell us what furniture stays in the closet.
