After I had posted on Angi my bad experience with Window Rite, Markus called to make an appmt for a tech to come by and install my original lower window panel, which he said had been found in their warehouse and which he said had been totally "re-glassed/insulated". Tech came 2 days later, August 25, 2023. He had trouble removing the bad (incorrect model) panel that had been installed March 22, 2023 and, therefore, Markus rushed over to my house and both of them removed the bad replacement, which also had started to fog up. They did a perfect install of my original (now repaired) panel - it looks good and works well. So all is well that ends well. Just wish it had been more amicable and business like from the start, without me having to write a bad review to change their attitude.

I hired HomeRite to replace the fogged glass in some 40 year old windows. I'm getting my late parents' house ready to sell and some of the windows were in bad shape. Rich, who did the estimate, and Brian, who did the installation, were both very personable. HomeRite had the best quote of the 3 companies I contacted. Rich was quite knowledgable about the window manufacturer (who has been out of business for some time) and told me where I could purchase replacement parts locally. The estimators from the 2 other companies had no idea who the manufacturer was. Brian did a wonderful job with installation of the new glass and took great care cleaning up afterwards. I would definitely use HomeRite again.

The Home-Rite team did a great job. Two windows were delivered with manufacture defects but the problems were taken care of promptly. Price was good and window quality was good also. Would definitely hire again to replace remaining windows.

It looks beautiful. The first door was damaged so they had to order another. It took longer to complete because of this but not their fault. I’m glad we got it done because it added curb appeal! They did a great job!

It took a few weeks last longer than I was quoted the company did a solid job my only suggestion is is you’re going to be 1-2 weeks longer than quoted it would be better to call the customer and get in front of the delay. There’s no good reason I should be chasing the company to find out what’s up 10 days later. Especially when you’re under a sales contract and need the work done prior to inspection.

The process went well. I will definitely use them for any additional services I may need. It was great to find a company that was actually willing to on!y replace one window.

I previously wrote a review of HomeRite because I had some challenges scheduling some work at my home. I was contracted by Gates one of the co-owners of the company and he was very apologetic. He personally came to the house and he did not think the water intrusion was due to a window but rather the way the windows had been installed and the flashing. He was right! He also recommended a local contractor Dean Russell and his firm has done an excellent job removing most of the stucco from my home and replacing rotten wood. I am grateful to Gates and to HomeRite for making no sure I really got the problems fixed. He could have just sold me a-lot of new windows.

We just hired Homerite for the second time, and our experience was even better than the first. The lead installer, Donnie, and his able assistants were highly professional, courteous, on-time and conscientious. Our demands are simple: solid, reasonably-priced products installed by people that we don't mind sharing our home with for a couple of days. Our sales guy, Pete, keeps it simple and doesn't hound you to death. We are very pleased and would highly recommend Homerite to anyone in the Jacksonville area.

The salesman showed up thirty minutes late to an estimate appointment. Rather than showing and explaining to me the windows he sells, he was too busy talking about himself and his company. I have plantation shutters over my windows, I was told I needed to hire another company to come out and remove them prior to window install and then when windows were done, that company would need to come back out and reinstall. Another thing I was not comfortable with was this company would be reusing the metal frame of my existing window. If I am paying so much for a new window, why would they re-use a portion of my old window? The company that we did use, took our shutters down and put them back at no charge. They also took the whole window out and did not re-use any portion of our old window!! At the end of the estimate appointment, the salesman did not even give me an estimate. He said he would get it to me by Monday(it was Friday). I only had 5 windows to replace, an estimate could have been given on the spot. We did not use this company for window replacement!

In and out I under 10 minutes, they represent multiple window manufacturers and obtain the lowest quote. Advised that they’d have to remove all trim and it would be at my additional cost to have the Hardin board trim replaced at my expense. The others I talked would cut the window out and trim would remain intact. Very unimpressed

We hired HomeRite Windows and Doors to replace the glass in our windows that were cracked by Hurricane Irma. The staff were pleasant to work with. They were professional and prompt. It did take a little longer than expected to get the glass in, but that isn't controlled by the company. The state has been inundated by glass replacements due to the hurricane, so the extra time was understandable. (I hope I don't need them again, but if I do,) I would definitely hire them again.

I had Alex come out to look at a window that needs to be replaced and to check other windows to see if they also needed to be replaced as they were foggy. He wanted to come back with a ladder and measure one of the windows. Don’t know if he ever can back and did that or not. It has been over 4 weeks I have left 2 messages on his cell over the last 2 weeks and never got a call back. So I called be office and spoke to Mark who told me either he or Alex would get back to me that day but they were busy packing up for the Home and Patio Show. To which I responded that I was already trying to give them business. Still waiting one week later for a call from anybody. Too bard as I had a prior experience with the company that was positive.

After they installed my windows previously, they did such a good job that I hired them again. The work was exceptional and they left home in the same clean condition they found it in. The salesman was quite personable and the install team was professional.

Everything went very smoothly, from the initial introduction to the jump frame window to final installation, we were very happy with the entire process. He explained what the jump frame window was and what to expect with the installation process. We got the windows ordered and they came in and installed as promised. The installation crew was fantastic! They were professional and cleaned everything up after they left.

The whole job took two days (9 windows and 1 sliding glass door) and the work crew led by Donnie Allison and Rick Allison called before they came each day, informed us of any changes or issues with their schedule, and cleaned up the whole work site after the job was completed. Once the job was completed Mr. Blumenauer came back over to review the work and ask if there were any issues.
