"After reading the excellent reviews of Goodfellows Windows, I reached out to the company for a quote. Gary, the owner, came to my house and quoted an amazingly affordable figure. We decided to replace every window in the house including a large bay window. We also replaced a sliding glass door off of our family room, a outside door leading to our deck, and a front door unit consisting of a door and a glass window with internal shades. Because of Covid 19, our order took longer than projected. This was not the fault of Goodfellows. Our sliding door, deck door, and front door were put in first. The workers, Phil and Orlando took meticulous care to make sure everything fit perfectly. The windows finally arrived in early July and were installed over a three day period. There was a total of 28 windows. Some installation required extra work, but this was accomplished by the highly skilled team of Phil and Orlando. Gary was onsite during the entire procedure. I cannot overemphasize my satisfaction with the job performed. They even removed all my blinds and reinstalled them after the windows were put in. Get quotes from every company you want, but I guarantee that you will choose to hire Goodfellows Windows for your project. They are the BEST."

"My front door was hung in a crooked door frame and would not close or lock all the way. I also needed to install 2 new storm doors, one in that crooked door frame. I’m on a limited budget, and Nixon was able to correct the door lock situation, compensate for the frame, and install the storm doors beautifully. Everything now works perfectly and looks amazing. He recommended the perfect storm doors and hardware and even picked everything up for me. It was all finished in 2 hours! Highly recommend!"

"We had two homes and a garage which needed painting. We posted the job on Home Advisor and Fernando answered within 15 minutes. He came to our property that day, and sent us a very reasonable quote which was less than what another contractor had quoted us. Fernando's plentiful reviews on Home Advisor were ALL 5-star, so we felt comfortable in hiring him. Fernando was able to start the job within a couple of days, and worked with our schedule. He provided paint samples of quality paint for us to see the actual colors we liked on the exteriors. He was patient as we decided. His crew of Louis, Marco and Marcado were affable, friendly and hard-working. They even were willing to work on a Sunday and long hours to finish the job in time. Fernando always put a smile on our faces with his upbeat attitude and positive manner. We hired him to do other projects while there including repairing some stone work on a chimney, stripping wallpaper and interior painting, and putting on an exterior door. It seems Fernando and his team can do anything. Fernando always answered our calls and emails promptly, and said we could contact him up until about midnight. Fernando is a dream to work with. We think he should change his company name to Happy Home Painting and Projects - because Fernando is always happy and his work makes you happy. My husband is an engineer, and has always done our painting and construction projects. He is meticulous, and has an experienced eye. Fernando even made my husband happy, which makes me happy. We had a pizza party to celebrate our beautiful painted homes and garage with Fernando and his team. Fernando and his guys feel like family after knowing them a short time. We look forward on doing more projects with Fernando and Company. You will not be disappointed if you hire Fernando. He says his goal is to make you happy with his work. And he does!"

"Elvin is great. He fixed my wood double front doors and applied paint that I had picked out, as well as new handles/lock. He took his time, was very polite, and made sure everything was in order before in left. My front doors look amazing. Will be hiring him again for more work around the house. Also, his pricing was very reasonable and on point for the amount of repair and painting work he did."

"I was very impressed with David's responsiveness and every member of his crew was a pleasure. They completely removed the kitchen floor (and several layers of subfloor) in my 100+ year-old home, made repairs to floor joists and installed new flooring that looks beautiful. It was an evolving project and I appreciated the team's flexibility and speed with which they completed the project."

"The carpenter that did the job (Adam) was amazing. He had to expand the space for one window, narrow the space for another, and repair much cedar siding that had rotted away due to water damage. He also reshaped my patio door so it would close and lock more easily. He is a very talented carpenter and I have no qualms about highly recommending him."

Doors questions, answered by experts

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

You might assume that having two locks on one door will offer more protection than only one lock, but there may not be an advantage. While there’s nothing wrong with having two locks if you feel it’s best for your living situation, rest assured having one high-quality deadbolt installed correctly will offer a high level of protection.

To move a couch through a narrow doorway, first measure the couch and the doorway to ensure it will fit. For a close fit, you can create more space by removing the interior door; tap out the hinge pins with a nail and shift the door sideways to remove it from its hinges. You may need to turn the couch on its side or move it in separate pieces, if possible. Using furniture sliders can also help you slide the couch through the doorway.

Brickmould isn’t just for doors. It’s used around windows similarly to how it's used around doors. The purpose is to create protection and ward off moisture and insects that could otherwise invade the gap between the frame and the home’s exterior. As with doors, brickmould creates a finished look on the windows and acts as a decorative element.

You can use any wood to make an interior door, provided it’s the right thickness. Common options for painted doors include pine or poplar for the stiles, rails, and mullions, and paint-grade plywood for the panels. You can also opt to make your own panels out of pine or poplar if you intend on staining the door instead. Opting for oak, maple, or another hardwood is another great option for a high-end door that will last for decades, but the wood will cost significantly more.
