"amorguard exteriors was hired to change a screen room to a sun room. it was their guy who was to do the official measurements. but while they measured for the windows, they blindly ignored the back door. when it was time for installation, Sam the installer said the door would not open to the outside as designed and installed it to open to the inside. this never worked because from the begining the door would not open all the way. it scrape and completely stop. it could be installed the correct way because the door hit the gutter. their mistake. they would buy a correct smaller door, so they went to Plan B which was to cut 2 inches off the bottom. now i have a door that looks inferior and just d*** odd. also Rick the sales manager is a LIAR! he will tell you anything just to get a sale. also if you simply want to talk to Kevin the owner, they will pass you around to every body in the building. i've never seen a more teflon owner. buyer beware and i am a customer!!!!!"

"Ryan did a fantastic job installing custom screen doors for my French doors. He was responsive, professional, polite, and exceeded my expectations. I needed a custom screen door installed by Thanksgiving and he was given a very small window to make this happen. Ryan assured me he’d do his best to make it happen (even though the screen needed to be custom ordered) and he delivered! These days, It’s rare to come across independent contractors that are responsive, punctual and deliver on their promises. Ryan is a rare find due to his incredible work ethic. I’ll be definitely be hiring him for future screen door installations!"

When contacting an awning installer, there are a few questions to ask to make sure the process runs smoothly. To have the awning of your dreams installed to shade you from the sun, ask your installer some of these questions to get you started:
How long will this project take to complete?
Do you have insurance coverage?
Will I need a building permit for this project? Who is responsible for obtaining this?
Do you have references from previous clients?
Do you have photos of previously completed projects?
The cost of an awning is $1,400 to $4,400 on average. However, this cost could be as low as $100 or as high as $7,500, depending on a few factors. The type of awning you choose, the size you need, and your location all affect your overall cost.
For example, portable awnings you can put up and take down yourself range from $100 to $400, whereas motorized awnings are more luxurious and cost between $2,000 and $3,500.
Awnings can take anywhere from two hours to two days to install once made. Retractable awnings are generally more lightweight and simpler to install than metal ones, which take longer. Even if you’ve chosen a retractable awning, it’s best to plan for a two-day installation timeframe to give your installer plenty of time to ensure proper installation and operation.
Awnings are either fixed or retractable and can be paired with a variety of cover materials. Fixed awnings are a permanent outdoor feature of a building. These are highly durable and require ongoing maintenance. Once installed, the position of this awning cannot be changed.
Retractable awnings are more popular than fixed awnings since the cover can open and close. This allows homeowners to open and close the awning, depending on the weather. When not in use, it can be closed to allow for extra space.
Besides the type of awning, you’ll need to choose the type of cover. Your awning installation professional will review your options with you, including availability and costs. The types of covers you can choose from include:
Wood, which is durable but can be damaged easily by rainwater and fire
Cotton offers flexibility, weatherproofing, and easy cleaning
Canvas is highly durable and is a good choice for retractable awnings
Metal is sturdy but is prone to rust
Polyester is easy to clean and is a more breathable option
Polycarbonate is highly resistant to UV rays and is difficult to damage
