Entryways
Using large patio doors or French doors allow for easy passage. Installing a stairwell is also a good idea to provide guests with easy access. For everyone’s safety though, the stairs should be built with sturdy materials and equipped with appropriate railings.
Looking ahead to spring gatherings is a great way to cope with the harsh winter. Planning an outside entertainment area with the help of experienced Chicago deck builders, like the ones from DAL Builders, Inc., is a good start.

Basement Remodeling in Chicago Turns a Misfortune into a Good Thing
Chicago is known for its harsh winters, and this year is no exception as below-zero temperatures have been more prevalent than ever. As such, poorly insulated pipes will likely freeze, creating problems for homeowners. Carole Feldman reports in ABCNews.Go.com that a real problem occurs when these frozen pipes burst and cause flooding in the basement.
Removing water from a flooded basement should be done immediately to prevent mold and bacteria from developing. Homeowners can choose to remove water on their own through effective do-it-yourself techniques, or hire professionals. If there is major damage to the flooring and walls in the basement, homeowners can consider basement remodeling in Chicago.
