Mihalko’s General Contracting is your go to source for home improvement projects. Below are a couple FAQs our staff have received. We hope they are helpful. Please us know your questions.
HOW CAN I SAVE ON MY HEATING BILLS THIS WINTER?
By doing some simple things! Caulk around your windows and doors and seal all cracks. Add some insulation to the attic. Even putting plastic on your windows is a very inexpensive way to save. Items like a digital set back thermostat that costs $80 and could save hundreds of dollars and make your living environment very comfortable.
ARE ALL WINDOWS CREATED EQUAL?
Not in your wildest dreams! Going for a low price gimmick will give you one guarantee – a low priced, low quality window. It appears from just looking at the window that there is no difference, but BUYER BEWARE. The guts (the working parts) are not going to last. Problems are guaranteed. Get a look at a real quality window that will last a true lifetime!
WHAT IS THE KEYSTONE HOME ENERGY LOAN PROGRAM?

I’M THINKING OF REDOING MY KITCHEN, WHERE DO I START?
Start off with THE BEST designer. This is the most important decision that can be made. The designer will know what can fit, what is up and coming, and will be able to guide you to the right cabinet line depending on your budget. Find the expert kitchen designer at Mihalko’s Design Center and ask for Bryan Miller. He will save you a lot of aggravation and will make your dream kitchen come to life within your budget.
