Looking for top-notch service? Look no further than Aspen Home Improvements. Contact us today for all your window needs!
"Hi On 08/15 the salesperson (James) came to my house to speak to be about Aspen home improvement. He was very nice, polite and very professional. I like his presentation including information about the company having great customer service. I also spoke to the manager (David Diller) that day and he seemed like a nice person. I choose this company because of his presentation and the customer service review. There were two other companies that came from Angie’s list that had a cheaper quote but I wasn't impressed with their presentation. Both of the other two companies were $500-$1,000 cheaper than Aspen. My appointment for roof replacement was scheduled for 08/26/2019 and 08/27 and they changed to 08/30 because it rained one day in the previous week. When I spoke to the person and I mention that it was changed from two to one day, she said that the manager review and said that it would take one day. She also states that if it wasn’t done they would finish it on the next day (Saturday). When I got home from work at 4 pm on Friday ( 08/30/2019) they had removed all roof but they only added shingles to the top of the house (The porch and Sunroom weren’t done). About an hour or so later they were all packing up to leave and not a single person said a word to me, so I thought that they were done. When I went out and check they still haven’t applied shingles to the porch or sunroom roof. No one called me or said anything, so I asked if they were coming back the next day and he said “no” maybe sometime next week. He also said that they didn’t have any shingle left. I had to force him to call his manager to find out when they would be coming back and he said the manager said Tuesday. It rained two times before they came back to finish it. They came back the following Thursday (09/05/2019) to finish. When I came home I notice they there were a lot of nails that came straight through the roof of both the sunroom and the porch. I also notice they did not installed the new drip edge or pipe collar as stated in the contract. Other things are not very easy to spot. The money was released to them on 09/02/2019 and they still haven’t come back to resolve these issues as of 09/10/2019. I am very disappointed in their lack of communication skills, very poor quality and lack of customer service. My next step will be to send this information to the Better Business and get the issue resolved. I paid $6,995 for this service."

Wainscoting is decorative paneling that covers the lower part of a wall, adding style and protection. Beadboard is a popular type of wainscoting characterized by long, vertical panels with raised beads—small indentations or ridges between the planks. It's commonly used on walls and ceilings to add depth and character. Both wainscoting and beadboard are versatile options that allow you to enhance your indoor and outdoor spaces. Beadboard panels lock together with a tongue-and-groove joint, while shiplap—a similar style—uses a square-shaped rabbet joint.
The top of the wainscoting should be set at one-third of the room’s height. So, for a standard room with nine-foot ceilings, the wainscoting should extend exactly three feet. This precise measurement creates a balanced, elegant look that enhances overall room proportions and delivers a classic design appearance.
Wainscoting can make a room look smaller if the room has low ceilings. The same rule applies with wainscoting as it does with painting any space: In order to make the room look larger and more open, paint it a light color like white or cream. Since beadboard incorporates vertical lines in the paneling, this style of wainscoting is ideal for those wanting to make a room appear larger than it is.
While wainscoting can technically be used in any room, you’ll typically want to reserve it for a more open space, like a foyer where you want to make a dynamic first impression or a bathroom with tall ceilings. Avoid using wainscoting in small spaces with low ceilings. Open concepts like a living room and kitchen combination also don’t work well with wainscoting because there isn’t a clean break point along the walls.
Wainscoting can increase home value because it offers a refined design element that boosts buyer interest. Its elegant finish and distinctive style enhance interior aesthetics and generate a positive market impression, therefore confidently increasing the property’s overall desirability and resale value.
