"We took bids from seven or eight companies to remodel our kitchen and bathroom. We had a whole list of improvements we wanted, from 'must-haves' to 'might be nice someday'. We selected TaylorPro Home Services for several reasons, but foremost among those reasons was that the owner, Kerry Taylor, provided us with a detailed breakout of labor/material costs for every option. Nearly every other contractor bundled up the costs of our optional tasks into a single number, which made it quite difficult to select the best options based on our priorities and budget. Kerry's highly detailed proposal wasn't the least expensive we received, but it was organized, thorough, and competitive.
The second reason we selected TaylorPro was the demeanor and experience of Kerry himself. It was refreshing to talk to someone who actually gets his hands dirty rather than yet another designer with his head in a computer. (God bless the designers, though -- we had helpful conversations with many!) Kerry has a good design aesthetic, make no mistake, but it was clear that when problems inevitably popped up, Kerry would know how to address them. He is calm, personable, and competent. In other words, he is just the sort of person you want to work with.
We can't forget to mention the TaylorPro crew. The first thing you notice is how youthful they are. Not a single gray hair among them. Yet after watching them work awhile, you begin to notice how extraordinarily skilful they are. It doesn't matter what is on the day's agenda -- electrical, paint, plumbing, drywall -- these guys tackle it all and do it exceedingly well. They aren't just putting in their time and collecting a check. They take terrific pride in the work they do, a quality that seems more and more difficult to find these days. They are pleasant to be around and I never heard a cross word among them. They took pains to keep the noise and dust to a minimum. They cleaned up at the end of every day, even those days when they put in extra hours and were obviously very tired. This is easily the best work crew we've ever had at our house.
We should also mention that the subcontractors that TaylorPro uses are top-notch. The folks who laid down our new tile floor (Jeff) had every bit as much expertise and integrity as TaylorPro. They did an excellent job on both the flooring and the tile backsplash. These two elements receive compliments from everyone who visits our remodeled kitchen. (We wish Jeff would put his company on Angie's List so that we could give him the recognition he deserves!) In addition, the fellows who fabricated our Caesarstone countertop were also great craftsmen. They did a beautiful job. When we noticed a small blemish a few days after the countertop was installed, they came out immediately and corrected the problem. Nice!
In summary, TaylorPro has lived up to all the glowing recommendations here on Angie's List. Our experience with TaylorPro is right in line with the others. They stayed on task, they communicated well, they stayed on budget, and they gave us more than we had any right to expect. We don't know a better compliment to give Kerry and company than this: when it comes time to remodel the upstairs bathrooms, we won't need to solicit seven or eight bids. We'll just call TaylorPro. "

The homeowner wanted something really fun. She loves wallpaper and has a very good theory that if you have a fun and interesting wallpaper in a powder room your guests are less likely to go riffling through the cabinets.

Details. I use that word a lot, but its the details that matter. It's also the quality that most people don't see. It took interviewing many cabinet shops to get the folks we settled on. They knocked it out of the park. These boxes are built as good they can be built.

The culprit.
The coupling on this toilet supply line broke and came free running like an open faucet for 12 + hours.
Although unconfirmed, my guess is that someone used a wrench or pliers to tighten this plastic fitting. Folks, don't do this. It is designed for hand-tightening. Using pliers or a wrench can damage the plastic and lead to failure...

The standard duration of a roof is roughly many years. If the roof is under few years old yet you are having problems, it will probably be able to get repaired instead of being forced to put up a brand-new roof. Even so, if your roof exceeds this age it usually is recommended to put in a new roof. To complete both fixes and new installs, a roofing contractor should be employed. A roofing contractor will be able to perfectly put in or service roofing components to make certain a good quality end product.
Before employing a residential roofing Auckland contractor it's always a good idea to get recommendations from family or friends. No matter whether you have recommendations, acquire several bids prior to figuring out the roofing company to hire. A bid ought to be thorough and encompass the work to be conducted, expense, and time-frame to finish. Make certain clean up is included in the offered cost. If you would like save money, offer to complete the cleanup yourself.
Ask the roofer for how long they've been in business. Roofing contractors with numerous years experience are preferred. Additionally, make certain they have a physical address. Many roofing rip-offs are carried out by folks operating out of a truck without any legitimate business licenses or permanent street address. Obtain recommendations and verify them. Roofers should be properly insured. Request verification of insurance coverage to be certain you are shielded from any damage to your house.
The residential roofing Auckland repairs and new roofs may require particular building permits. Make sure the enterprise you deal with knows community building regulations and that they acquire the right licenses or permits. Many cities also need to have inspections during particular stages of construction and a final inspection when the work is complete. Examine your community building codes to be sure the roofer is adhering to all codes. You may be liable if this does not occur.
Before starting the task get a contract. This would include every detail of the project, period of time to finish, and cost. It needs to clearly define payment procedures and warranties. Furthermore, make certain the contract declares they are liable for clean up. Roof elements can be very messy and you should not need to clean up and dispose of waste yourself. However remember you can save a little money if you choose to take on the cleanup process yourself. Don't be rushed into choosing a residential roofing Auckland contractor. Take time to talk to prospective roofers and check out expertise and recommendations. Roof maintenance can be costly and a new roof is really a major investment. Protect your house through doing a bit of analysis. Hire the roofing contractor that has the best mix of expertise and expense and with which you feel most confident.

Staged for the next level- Upon retirement everything on the shelving will be purged and the bins in back will be moved to the shelving. The items under the stairwell the client chose to sort through at a later date which on a project of this magnitude is perfectly fine. We don't "make" folks do it all but rather go at their pace and what is most comfortable and less stressful for them. I must say they did a phenomenal job with the amount of decisions that had to be made and it's only going to get better!

Covid During Construction and Making Face Masks
Dear Houzz Folks,
We've started getting back to work and are educating everyone at our projects on how to be safe during COVID, posting signage, and we've been making masks for our employees, colleagues, friends, family etc... Here's some information on what I've learned so far in sewing the best fitting face mask for COVID.
1. Put in a wire at the nose bridge (about 3.5 inches) - it helps with fit and if you wear glasses, it keeps them from fogging up. I found that doorbell wire, available at the hardware store, seems to work well. It isn't too thin or too fat, bends easily and holds its shape. I attach it by using a zigzag stitch on the interior seam of the outside of the mask (so there's a bit more cushion on the inside).
2. For the shaped masks, I make a pocket in case my friends, family, colleagues, want to insert a filter - it also allows for three layers of fabric in the breathing area and less bulk where the ties go. For patterns that don't offer pockets, I just make my own pattern pocket. I also first baste the two inside pieces first and then sew the front on. This way, there's no worries about slipping. No pins are needed and no pins minimizes the number of extra air holes in the fabric.
3. So that the ties/loops can be replaced or modified, I make a channel for rather than sewing it in permanently. Many videos show using a safety pin to pull the elastic through. If you sew much, you might have a bodkin in your sewing box, but it might be a bit too wide. Instead, I use a long hairpin (you could probably make a long loop with a paper clip). I run the hairpin through the channel, loop the elastic through the end of the pin and pull through. That takes much less time than piercing it with a safety-pin.
4. For the inside of the masks, it is nice to have softer fabric inside, so high-thread-count sheets purchased on sale work great. Then you can easily tell what is inside as well.
5. For surgical-style masks, there's a pattern with a pocket on the inside and a wire. I like the ideas in this video but use 2 fabrics and make them bigger. About a 9x9 inch for the outside and 9x8 inch for the inside. 5/8 seam on the nose and 1/4 seam on the bottom.
6. For the fitted masks, there are two patterns that I like. For this one, https://moinliz.de/mundschutz-naehen-mit-schnittmuster it expects you to print on European-sized paper, so if you want to get the size right, print at 100%
I also really like this pattern and I added a pocket and lengthened the ends to make channels https://intermountainhealthcare.org/covid19-coronavirus/homemade-cloth-face-coverings/ (scroll down to a link to download the pdf) Lots of folks sew craftpassion, but I like the fit of these patterns better. There are still some other patterns I have left to try!
6. After breaking lots of needles, I realized that I really didn't need to topstich the fitted masks over the bridge, so I just started skipping the bridge.
7. If you're going to wear a face-covering for a really long time, you might want to skip the ear hangers and go for ties behind the head. Instead of two ties, I'll use one long one so that the bottom one is a loop and the top one ties. Bungee cord works nice.
Happy Sewing!
