The Scariest House on the Block

H
alloween is almost here and there is nothing more fun than scary Halloween decorations, including of course, a scary front door! It’s the door that young trick-or-treaters shy away from… and older trick-or-treaters dare each other to approach. Does your Halloween décor include a scary door? But YIKES!! You didn’t even decorate for Halloween! If your front door is so old and worn it’s scary, it’s time to contact Rick’s Front Door Refinishing! Rick says, “Our craftsmen will come right to your home and will refinish your door on-site, in one day, and at a great price. We use the very best stains and Marine grade spar urethanes to give a beautiful and long lasting finish. We then use the best, professional grade, Hvlp Spray units to lay down a smooth, even finish, without the brushstrokes. We can also replace the weather strip from around your

I’m delighted and so impressed that my house was insulated whilst the doors were worked on, no mess…no inconvenience. I cannot recommend your company enough! Wait until my neighbors see the difference...” If your door is unintentionally ghastly, you need to call Rick. Rick says “You won’t believe how pretty your door can look. Getting there doesn’t have to be a big hassle. Let Mrs. Terry set you up with an appointment.” And you can always make that new pretty door scary with spider webs, ghosts and jack-o-lanterns…it just doesn’t have to be scary year round!
