Home Renovations and Remodels

Home renovations can be an appealing alternative to home additions if you don’t want to spend too much money or let your home become more expensive than the average homes in your area. However, like home additions, renovating or remodeling a space in your home can be time consuming and potentially costly.

Patio Door Repair and Replacement

Adding style to both the interior and exterior of your home, a patio door is the upgrade your home has been needing.

How to Use Hollow Wall Anchors

When hanging objects on your walls, it is important to be aware of what sort of nail or screw is required to support the weight. For most smaller objects, like pictures and hanging ornaments, just a normal nail is fine. Hollow wall anchors, also known as drywall anchors, are meant to carry heavier pictures, some lightweight shelves, and other similar objects. Once you go over twenty pounds, a hollow wall anchor is required to bear the weight. This prevents the drywall from flaking apart and causing the nail to fall from the wall. Drywall is by its very nature weak, so we must rely on the hollow wall anchors to, well, anchor themselves to the wall so that anything hung on the attached screw won’t fall down and cause damage.

How To Replace Your Kitchen Cabinet Hardware

Kitchen cabinet hardware could possibly be one of the most used, and overlooked, aspects of one of the most well-trodden rooms in any given house. Not only must they fit in with the appearance of the kitchen, and the house overall, but they have to be useful, low-profile, and safe. While square cabinet handles with corners may go well with a side table that gets low traffic, kitchen handles must be able to stand up to the test of time, and children if you have them. How exactly should you go about upgrading your old handles to something new and refreshing?
