"The positive: Graves Brothers will provide a quote for PARTIAL Siding projects where most companies won't talk to you unless you need a FULL Siding project. The installation team was quick and did a nice job. The Cons: Deceptive Sales. Your Typical Residential Home Services contactor. I had a complete east side siding replacement quoted. There is a 24" "Jog wall" between the exterior garage wall and the living quarters wall. Their quote included photos that show this wall in one of the views. A second photo shows the entire length of the wall outlined that includes this jog wall, but they did not replace the siding on this wall. A conversation BEFORE the project work started questioned if I intended on having the wall replaced and it was agreed that it should have been part of the proposal. The installers DID NOT replace the siding on this wall. I asked for a simple $500 credit and was willing to settle for a $350 credit which was more than fair. The Salesman insisted that seeing the wall was not assigned a "wall number" therefore it was not included in their proposal. Graves Brothers displayed ZERO interest in coming to a mutual agreement on the discrepancy. Update 7/19/2024: After continued conversations, the Sales Rep finally conceded that after speaking with his installers, that the work WAS included in the initial estimate and should have been completed. I gave Graves Brothers the option of discounting the price or returning to finish the work. They chose to finish the work which is scheduled this week. IMO, Speaking to his installation team should have been done PRIOR to him taking a flat stance with me that they were right and I was wrong. Give Graves Brothers Home Improvements a 3-Star rating for (finally) doing what was right. The installation was done well and the installers were professional, courteous and cleaned up well. Just make sure you document all conversations and get them in writing up front."

The timeline for custom closet installation varies based on project complexity and scope. Simple reach-in closets can often be completed in less than a day, while elaborate walk-in designs may require one to two days or potentially longer for intricate custom features.
Professional installers can finish standard projects within a single day, though additional time may be needed for specialized carpentry work, custom finishes, or extensive storage systems.
For areas with high humidity, moisture-resistant materials offer superior performance and longevity. Melamine, laminate, and vinyl-coated wire systems resist warping and moisture damage better than untreated wood options. If you prefer wood elements, consider cedar (which naturally deters insects) or properly sealed hardwoods with moisture-resistant finishes. Proper ventilation also plays a crucial role in humidity management—incorporating vents or louvered elements helps maintain airflow and prevent moisture accumulation.
Custom closet installations recover 50% to 60% of their cost in added home value. Well-organized storage spaces represent significant selling points, particularly in master bedrooms and other primary living areas. The greatest value comes from thoughtfully designed systems featuring versatile storage solutions, neutral color schemes, and quality construction. While you may not recoup the entire investment, enhanced marketability often translates to faster sales and stronger buyer interest.
Irregular spaces actually present excellent opportunities for custom closet solutions. Professional designers can create storage systems that maximize awkward corners, angled walls, and unusual dimensions that standard prefabricated units cannot accommodate.
Custom-built components can be precisely tailored to your specific spatial constraints, though such specialized fabrication may increase costs compared to standard installations. The resulting storage efficiency often justifies the additional investment, transforming challenging spaces into highly functional storage areas.
