Installation jobs

Yesterday we were in a quaint older neighborhood in Palo Alto to install a pair of custom maple bypass doors.  The home was an Eichler, with sloped-roof, floor-to-ceiling windows and all of the character typical of homes from that era.  The washer and dryer were installed in a nook adjoining the living room.  The owner […]
