Customer had a leaky shower faucet and slow running drain and did not want the expense of a completely new shower system. We offered such a low cost solution that she also had us clean the tile, replace the caulk and seal the entire shower too…

Testimonial: The Gil Family wrote: “Lon, The doors and basement look great! Thank you so very much…”
Project Details: Remove mold and water damaged drywall from basement. Replace drywall, prime and paint.
During demolition, the client expressed her desire to have more space in the family room. Working together the Gil’s approved an idea to reverse a closet thereby sealing off the wall to provide access to more useable space within the family room and new closet. We also imbedded plywood to attach/secure a TV wall mount system and provided Mr. Gil with a new electrical supply.
Outcome: Practically, we captured more closet space by reversing it, secured a flexible shelving system, attached a new closet door and provide the Gil’s with access to critical HVAC diverters which were buried by a previous contractor.

Do it yourself?
Mrs. Olson said: ” Lon, I have been completely pleased with the work you did on my home. It is too bad all the renovations were to sell the home because it would have been nice to enjoy the work you did. Not only was the work done to my specifications, but your recommendations and improvements on my plans were excellent, your work was thorough, you were clean, and respected my home. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and neighbors. Thanks again for all of your help.”

Thanks for the nice note and for choosing Ask Lon. Also, special thanks to Linda Stromberg @
CENTURY 21 Marino Real Estate, Inc. for her assistance throughout this process.
We have field tested a nice outdoor cleaning product. It removes dirt, mildew, algae and fungus stains on a range of outdoor surfaces, including wood and composite decks, fences, concrete, masonry, brick, stucco, outdoor furniture, roofs, siding and some fabrics such as awnings and vinyl plastics. It is an effective, oxygen powered cleaner concentrate that is biodegradable and gentler than chlorine bleach-based formulas.
It’s not inexpensive, when compared to more traditional products, and still requires a lot of elbow grease, the proper scrub brushes and a professional grade power washer for decks and fencing but it is less harmful to pets, shrubs and trees.
We have learned several things to improve its performance and we recommend you follow the manufactures instructions on the back of the bottle before you give Thompson’s® WaterSeal® Oxy Foaming Action Exterior Multi-Surface Cleaner a try. Or have Ask Lon! Remodeling and Handyman Services do the cleaning for you just like this Condo Associations has…Next up – the fence!

Door Repair and Security Up-Grades by Ask Lon!
Being burglarized is a terrible experience. I know because it has happened to me. So, I’ve shot a video showing how to install an inexpensive door security up-grade to help lessen the likelihood of it happening again. Additionally, in the past 3 weeks I have been contacted by 3 different customers (one of them even had ADT Security) about break-ins.
In security this philosophy applies: “If you and a friend are being chased by a bear you only need to outrun your friend.” So let’s make your home visibly more challenging to break into.
Pervasiveness:
Thankfully, added protection does not cost a fortune!
Actually nothing can be done to assure that the professional burglar will be kept out of your home but the good news is that most thieves are not well equipped and therefore look for the quick and easy targets. When they see a solid properly installed lock and door system, and kick one of these door frame supports, they generally move on to a door without them.
It costs approximately 3 times more to repair a door then it does to install improved door security.
Ask Lon combines different systems to make life more challenging for the professional burglar and to help outwit the beginner. Call me now @ 847-636-0771 to inquire about scheduling a free estimate.
Sincerely,
Lon Thomas Owner Ask Lon! 847-636-0771 Info@asklon.com
