"Everyone at Art of Doors is a true professional. They answer their emails, their calls quickly and their communication is excellent. Ryan, our door repair person, was fabulous. He fixed things we did not think could be fixed an explained a lot to us about our door and his repairs. I would never hire another company to deal with a door. These people are worth their weight in gold!"
"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

The company owner arrived at the scheduled time with everything needed to fix the broken door parts. He also serviced a separate door at no additional charge and offered ideas to take good care of the doors to prevent problems. I would recommend them to anyone who truly wants the best service."
"Beyond our expectations. We were told automatic garage door couldn't be installed. Installer made it work. Door is quiet, works marvelously. All personnel we have been in contact with have been courteous, friendly, helpful. Appointments are on time, sometimes sooner. We are both elderly and this door is such a benefit for us. We are on fixed income and found costs to be very reasonable."
"Duke did a great job installing the grab bars in my elderly parents bathroom. He is very knowledgeable in the construction field so can do just about anything you need done in your home. He is friendly and professional. He has very affordable rates which I appreciate since I'm retired and on limited income. I will definitely hire him again and encourage anyone reading this review to call him."
"Pablo is phenomenal at all tasks. He put together: Dining Table Assembled Chairs Assembled a Coffee Table Built a Crawl Space Door Painted with a Sprayer He did everything to perfection and was very quick with each job. Pablo has common sense and is trustworthy."
"From beginning to end, American Pride walked me through every step of getting my new windows. Small company with super personable people, John made me feel so comfortable with my purchase and the install team was professional and courteous. My new windows are amazing! I can already tell a difference!"
