Questions and Answers

What types of fence repairs do you handle in Alexandria, and how do you address weather-related issues?

We handle all types of fence repairs, including broken panels, loose posts, sagging gates, and rot caused by moisture. In Alexandria, where humidity and rain can cause wood to warp or rot quickly, we use pressure-treated lumber, apply high-quality stain or sealant, and set posts in concrete with proper drainage. We also recommend weatherproofing treatments to extend the life of your fence against the local climate.

Can you mount a TV in a room with brick or stone walls, such as in a home in Old Town Alexandria?

Yes, we have experience mounting TVs on a variety of wall materials, including brick and stone. We use appropriate masonry anchors and specialized brackets to ensure a secure installation. For homes in Old Town or other historic areas with older construction, we take extra care to locate studs or solid backing and avoid damaging the wall surface.

Do you offer furniture assembly for items purchased from stores like IKEA, and how long does a typical project take?

Yes, we assemble furniture from any retailer, including IKEA, Amazon, Wayfair, and local stores. A typical furniture assembly project, like a dresser or bookshelf, takes one to two hours. Larger projects like gazebos or complex shelving systems may take a full day. We bring all necessary tools and follow the instructions closely to ensure the piece is built correctly and safely.
