For garage doors, the most common and affordable material is steel, but garage doors also come in fiberglass, aluminum, glass, and wood. Wood doors will need to be checked for water damage and warp, chipped and peeling paint.

Modern homes are built to be airtight for energy efficiency. But how does fresh air get in and stale air get out?
An ERV helps manage that air exchange. The right system depends on your home’s size and how many people live there.
Good homes need good ventilation. #MakeItRight

I love this - we can now match our trims to our tile. Schluter can actually print the pattern for you, or you do a contrast color. Brilliant. ( from Schluter-Systems)

We’ve got a generation of smart, driven young people who’ve been told their only path to success is a university degree and a desk job. Meanwhile, we’ve got an entire industry crying out for electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, framers, and more. This has to change.
Grout isn't just filler between tiles—it can completely change the look of your space.
Matching grout creates a seamless finish. Contrasting grout makes tile patterns pop. And darker grout can often be easier to maintain.
Don't overlook the details—they matter. #MakeItRight

We NEED to expose kids to the skilled trades earlier.
Give them opportunities to build, create and work with their hands. They might just discover a career they never knew was possible.

Riley, an incredible 18-year-old, asked for help saving her school’s skilled trades program. So we stepped in. We rebuilt 3 classrooms, worked with the students, and thanked their amazing teacher, Mr. Meleca.
Future trades are in good hands
