Hardie Har Har Har.

Back in a day that was the exclamation of Ralph Cramden on the Honeymooners.  What does it mean here?  Well, hardie board is a special siding material that uses cement fibers to create a more durable and attractive product.  Cement is combined with sand, water and cellulose wood fibers to create a material particularly suited to protect home exteriors.

Hardie board is an innovative and proven product that could look great on your home.  It is…durable, has curb appeal, is fire resistant, and maybe best of all, storm tested.   A great siding material is important, but just as crucial in the Dallas area is the siding contractor you choose to install it.

That is where Home Pro Contracting comes in.  The pros at Home Pro will install hardie board at a very competitive price…guaranteed!  Now, if you are interested in house painting on your Dallas home this spring Home Pro Contracting is also the right choice.  Give them a call to take a look at your home at (214) 886-3326.

Put on a Coat.

What?  It’s nearly May and you are sure to swelter in the Dallas heat if you do that.  No, we mean that it may be time to apply a fresh coat of paint to your home in the Metroplex.  You will be amazed at the improvement and the increased value that it will lend to your castle.  However, painting a whole house can be a daunting task.

Here are a few tips from the handyman pros –


1.  Consider using paint that is darker than the existing one.
2.  Thoroughly wash your home which you could do using a hose.
3.  Put primer on only the roughest areas.
4.  Scrape as little as you can get by with.
5.  Use a roller on anything that is flat.

How about letting Home Pro Contracting estimate the job and have the peace of mind that comes with knowing the job is done right…guaranteed!?  I thought you might like that idea.  Have Home Pro Contracting of Dallas paint your home professionally at handyman prices.  Give the pros at Home Pro a call at (214) 886-3326.

Three Sheets to the Wind.

Many of us have been there before, but in this case we are referring to hanging sheetrock in your Dallas area home.  Hanging “rock” doesn’t require a lot of finesse, but it is heavy work.  But if you have a strong back and you can climb four steps without wheezing, don’t be afraid to tackle one, two or even three rooms on your own.

How do the pros do it?  The pros never secure drywall with nails anymore, and neither should you.  Screws anchor the rock solidly to the framing, do less damage to the paper face, and are less likely to cause fastener pops down the road.  Nail pops are a nuisance to fix and generally won’t appear until after you’ve applied the final coat of paint.

Maybe you are among the adventurous in Dallas, but Home Pro Contracting will make this pledge…they will provide (a) drywall contractor(s) for the price of a handyman.  And, the job will be done right, guaranteed the first time!  Why not call Home Pro Contracting for all your drywall hanging (and hundreds of other projects) at (214) 886-3326?

Contractor vs. Handyman.

It sounds like a mammoth clash at The Sportatorium between two wrestling combatants, doesn’t it?  What IS the difference between handyman services and that of a contractor?  There are some projects a handyman may not be licensed to do.  Rough in or newly installed plumbing or electrical work may be a couple of projects that lead the list.

Keep in mind that if he or she isn’t licensed, you'll need to hire a specialized contractor who is.  If not, you could be liable financially if damages occur. Now, if you try to sell your Dallas area home, you could end up paying more to fix the issue, so it meets local code requirements.  Certainly no one wants that to happen!

Here is the perfect solution.  Call Home Pro Services of Dallas.  You see, with Home Pro NO job is too big or too small.  Their professional home repair contractors can help with anything from basic handyman repairs to all of the complicated matters that you thought required a contractor and all at a competitive price!  Call Home Pro Services of Dallas today at (214) 886-3326.

Yes, General.

The very word connotes a higher level of authority, doesn’t it?  For our purposes today, a general contractor is responsible for the overall coordination of a project.  The Big Kahuna!  In the case of renovations, a site visit is required to get a better understanding of the project.  The contractor then fixes a price proposal.

A general contractor is responsible for providing all the material, labor, equipment, and services necessary for a construction of the project.  A general contractor often hires specialized subcontractors to perform the construction work.  When using subcontractors, the general contractor is responsible for the quality of all work performed by all of the hires.

It is a really big deal for a really important job.  Do you know a company that regularly works with general contractors in the Dallas area?  We do.  It’s Home Pro Services.  There is a tab on their website homeprocontracting.com that will give you more details under the term contractors.  After you have read that you should be very comfortable in calling (214) 886-3326.

Forty Inches…That’s a Lot!

Alright, calm down.  Forty inches is the amount of average rainfall that the Dallas area receives in a year.  Over 365 (or 366) days that may not seem like a lot, but ask your basement (if it could talk) after a good drenching.  When you are walking IN water and not ON it that is anything but an ideal situation!

There are many companies in the Metroplex that advertise clean-up from water damage.  Are you looking for just cosmetic cleaning, or a thorough restoration of your beloved basement?  You can get by with just having the excess water removed, or you can return that important area of your home to as good as new.

That’s what the crew from Home Pro Services does.  They will come into your Dallas area castle, roll up their sleeves and give your basement the look, feel, and even smell that it used to have.  For true flood restoration please call the handymen at Home Pro Services of Dallas.  That phone number is (214) 886-3326.
