Expert Advice You Can Trust
Chris lives nearby so I hired him for advice about adding insulation and Unico AC to our 1889 house and repairing the antique carriage doors on our 1930s garage. He spent an hour with me looking at everything thoroughly and making suggestions, then followed it up the next day with a detailed report complete with explanatory photos and contact information for a couple of craftsmen he thought could help me. His enthusiasm was a pleasure and his expert advice was both helpful and reassuring — much like it is online.

Great resource. I just recently came upon this site and my husband & I are getting a lot out of the posts, also getting a great response as I share it on a site that I’m an admin on…the Ten Broeck Triangle Preservation League Facebook page. Keep it coming! …and Thank you My Old House Fix!!
