"Have used Scott for house maint. twice now and both times his work and value have been outstanding.

Affordable Home Repairs, Inc. 30 years carpentry experience. Self-employed doing home improvement work since July, 1992. Winfield resident, married, with 3 grown children. Specializing in all carpentry-related trim work, basements, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, door and window installation, drywall installation and other home improvement needs.
"Affordable Home Repairs-Sam Cannella Do not hire this contractor. His work is good but his personality is very unprofessional. He belittled me, made me feel stupid and incompetent, complained about everything, only worked 3-4 hours a day and overcharged. An example of his personality . His van leaks oil. He asked me to lay down cardboard in my driveway so his van did not leak oil on the driveway- which was thoughtful. However, one day I did not put the cardboard exactly right. He got of his van and hit his fist twice on the side of his van. It was not my responsibility as a customer to provide cardboard for the van. He should have brought the cardboard with him and put in the spot he wanted. He complained I did not have beverages on hand for him. Not my responsibility to provide beverage to contractors. Told me that he was using his tools to complete my projects. Every contractor I have hired has always provided their own tools. That is part of the job. Not sure why he even made the comment. He also told said and I quote Well knowing you, you do not care how things look. First of all that is not a comment you make to a customer. Second, I would not be trying to fixing up the house if I did not care how things looked. Sam is honest and supplied me with his tax number. He agreed to replace the ceiling fan he had installed (because it was wobbly) with a ceiling light. I told him I would pay for the light if he would install for free. When I l left a text message (because I wanted in writing) to state I had purchased the light and I wanted to confirm I was not going to be charged. Sam replied (actual statement) Why do you feel the need to remind me on things?? Do you think I just started yesterday? Being a single lady, I have used contractors for over 20 years and have never had a problem with one until Sam. My other contractors always treated me with respect; in fact, several of them have become friends. I am nervous about posting this review that Sam will vandalize the outside of my house. If I have any damage, he will be the first one I suspect."

Installing a barn door can be straightforward under the right conditions. When there is ample, clear wall space and the installation involves only attaching tracks and mounting the door, the process is relatively simple. However, if obstructions such as electrical outlets, door frames, or wall fixtures must be modified or removed, the installation becomes more complex and requires professional expertise. A professional can make these adjustments safely and efficiently, ensuring the door operates perfectly and enhances the overall space.
A bottom track is necessary, especially as the door's weight increases. Without a bottom track, heavy doors can swing against the wall and cause damage. The bottom of the door should be half an inch from the floor to ensure proper clearance. Sliding doors also need a bottom guide to prevent the door from coming off the track.
Barn doors can enhance a home's value by creating a distinctive look and improving interior functionality. Homes with barn doors can command a higher sale price compared to those without them. Barn doors introduce a modern design element that opens up living spaces and effectively conceals storage areas. This upgrade not only improves the overall aesthetic but also increases the property's market appeal through added versatility and visual interest.
Yes, a barn door should be larger than the opening. The door should be two to three inches wider than the opening and about one inch taller to ensure proper coverage. Rooms requiring more privacy, such as guest rooms and bathrooms, need additional overlap to reduce noise and eliminate gaps.
