Mt. Tabor Construction offers general contracting services including all phases of remodel projects-kitchen, bath, basement, attic, plus, electrical, plumbing, fencing, gates, decks, painting-interior/exterior, drywall and plaster, landscaping, as well as home repair/handyman services.

"I live just down the street from Rob and I had a simple task I asked completed of caulking in the shower. Whether his work was faulty or the product was faulty I don't know, but three times it didn't work. I try not to make assumptions about people. All our conversations have been via text, so I have a full written accounting of what happened. After the last time did not work, he offered to redo it once more or provide a refund and I immediately replied back that I would accept the refund and wish him well. He was going through some family health issues so I didn't press it and I waited to hear from him. Instead of honoring my wish to move forward with the refund he offered, in writing, and I accepted in writing, he tried to schedule a time to redo it. He then says he didn't mean to offer a refund and he refuses to honor it now. He told me I should just file a complaint and "try to ruin his reputation". Just another reason why it's best not to involve neighbors in professional endeavors. I'm sad it turned out this way."

Residential remodel/repair and handyman service. Interior and exterior work. Basement remodel are our specialty. Work both by quote or hourly. 100% referral, word of mouth

"Jim with Evolution Home Improvement performed a wide variety of jobs for us this fall as we prepared for a renter in our basement. He cut and later patched ceiling drywall as part of an electrical project, covered earthquake strapping with soffits, installed stair railings, built a section of cedar fencing, installed a gate in our backyard, and coordinated to have a section of linoleum installed in the entryway of our rental space. (I may have missed something there, but you get the idea; he's a jack of all trades, and quite skilled.) Jim and his employee were consistently friendly and responsive, and they did quality work across a wide range of jobs. The stair railings were partially to help my children navigate the stairs, and he was thoughtful about building them to the right height and even let my 5 year old 'help' him measure and observe for a little while. He was flexible and understanding with regards to the children's presence, which was very much appreciated. The cedar fence he built is beautiful and sturdy, and he selected a lovely gate with a very sturdy latch for keeping the gate closed while my kids are out back. The ceiling patches and soffits were precisely installed, and he made the soffits as small as possible so as to minimize their impact on the room. On his last day working, I asked him if he could help me to secure our electric fireplace, and he added it to that day's list of tasks with no problem, even though it was not in our original contract. My only concern was that there was a communication issue between Jim, myself and the flooring guy he got to install the linoleum. The flooring was installed beautifully the first time, but it was the wrong size/shape. Jim came by immediately when I let him know, he was apologetic and took responsibility for the error, and he assured us that we'd get it fixed asap. However, when his flooring guy came back to redo the job, he spoke very harshly and rudely to both myself and my mother, who was visiting. The error was not mine, but the man blamed me. Jim eventually intervened, and the job was redone, though not with the same careful attention to detail as the first time. The moral of the story is that I would highly recommend Jim and Evolution Home Improvement for odd jobs around the house, with the possible exception of the installation of flooring. Overall, the work Jim did was of high quality, and went a long way toward making my life with kids at home easier and safer."

FAQs for alarm or security system installation projects in Portland, OR

Solar-powered motion sensor fixtures operate independently from your home's electrical system, eliminating the need for complex wiring. Each unit contains its own integrated solar collector and battery storage system. Installation involves simple mounting procedures rather than electrical connections. 

Be aware that heavily shaded locations may compromise performance, and seasonal sunlight variations can affect reliability in some geographic regions.

Most motion detection systems include adjustment controls—small dials or switches—located on the sensor housing. These allow customization of detection distance, sensitivity to movement size, and duration settings for illumination after triggering. For fixtures without built-in adjustment capabilities, aftermarket controllers can sometimes be added. 

Regular testing after adjustments helps optimize performance and minimize unwanted activations from small animals or vegetation movement.

Converting to motion-activated lighting reduces electricity consumption substantially compared to fixtures left continuously illuminated. Traditional outdoor lighting operating throughout nighttime hours (10 to 14 hours) consumes significantly more power than motion-activated alternatives that illuminate only when needed. The actual savings depend on your previous lighting configuration, the efficiency of your new fixtures, and local electricity rates.

The ideal number of security lights depends on your property's specific layout and vulnerability points. Strategic placement matters more than quantity—focus on key areas like entry points, blind corners, and pathways. Analyze your property for potential coverage gaps, considering detection angles and ranges of each fixture. Balancing comprehensive coverage with avoiding unnecessary redundancy helps optimize both security effectiveness and installation budget.
