"Jorge and his team were great! Our windows and screens look amazing. He also cleaned our solar panels which are now sparkling clean. Definitely would recommend this company"
"*Excellent Service! * Job was done in a day, excellent installment of all new window screens! * Really Happy With This Company! Excellent Job Done! *"
"Had some furniture that needed to be put together and didn't have the time to do it myself. He showed up right on time, had all his own tools, and got it done way faster than I could have. Everything is completely sturdy and looks great. Very professional and highly recommend"
"Great lawn service! They did an excellent job mowing the lawn, edging all the borders, trimming the bushes, and removing the weeds. Everything was cleaned up nicely afterward, and the yard looks much more neat and well-maintained. They were professional, thorough, and did exactly what I needed. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable lawn care!"
"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."
"Raul is a very pleasant person to deal with. He was able to repair our shower door one day before he was scheduled and did an excellent job. The original shower installer installed the shower door so that it leaked and could not be contacted to fix it. We plan to have Raul back to do other maintenance on our home. We are extremely pleased. His prices are very fair."
"First of all I want to say that the work was done well and they didnt try to oversell us. We thought we needed a whole new screen door and instead of selling us one because we didnt know any different, they told us they could just repair the lock after ordering a couple parts. This saved us a little bit of money. However, I did have issues with the appointments themselves. First appt they showed up 2 hours late without any call letting us know. Second appt they showed up almost 3 hours late. The appt was at 7pm and they didnt call until 8:35 pm saying they would be a half hour late (they were already 1 and a half hours late at this point). Then they texted me at 9:30 pm saying they were on their way. This was a work night and completely unacceptable. The work was done well but the reliability and professionalism was severely lacking."
Most window screens last for about 10 to 12 years, assuming they are made from quality materials and receive proper care. The lifespan of common materials like fiberglass and aluminum can vary based on weather exposure, as constant sun or harsh winters can accelerate wear and tear. Regular cleaning and basic maintenance can help extend their life. Signs that a screen needs to be replaced include rips, tears, brittle or sagging material, fading, or a bent frame. While small tears can often be repaired, larger areas of damage typically mean it's time to replace the entire screen.
Window seals don’t last forever, so they’ll inevitably fail for one reason or another. One of the most common reasons is the expansion and contraction of the glass. When the glass gets warm from sunlight, it expands and adds pressure to the seal; at night, as the glass cools, it contracts. This process, day in and day out, can eventually cause the seal to fail. Other common sources of failure include the house settling over time, chemicals that damage the seal when repainting windows, and incorrect window installation.
Common problems include leaks, broken glass, and damaged frames. Regular maintenance prevents extensive damage.
The screen on many screen doors is held in place by screen spline. Screen spline is typically a thin vinyl tubing that fits into the groove of the door’s frame and holds the screen in place. To install the spline on a screen door, you’ll need a spline roller—a tool that presses the spline and screen into the door’s narrow groove. Note that old spline can crack and break, so replacing your screens is a good time to replace the spline, too.
There are different types of screen materials available when purchasing a screen door, but the two main options are fiberglass and aluminum. Fiberglass is lightweight and affordable, but can stretch out, so it needs to be replaced more often. Aluminum has a higher upfront cost, but is more sturdy. Aluminum can be more difficult to install, even if you know how to replace screen door mesh.
