"Window Medics replaced my sliding patio door. They did a great job in record time. Their customer service is awesome. This is the second time I’ve used their services and both times communication was prompt and complete. They arrived when they said they would and left the area clean and neat. I would definitely hire them again."
"We had 3 windows and a patio door installed. John W. and Trey K. did the patio door and Derrick A. & Hugo M. did the windows. They were professional, friendly and did an awesome job and made sure to clean up after they were finished. I would definitely recommend Renewal by Anderson."
"JBA Home - Jeff and Jerry did an excellent job replacing my sliding glass door with a French door. They were on-time, skilled, professional, caring, careful, and good communicators. All in all, a quality product for a very reasonable cost. From the initial call to the completed job, it was a pleasure working with Jeff and Jerry."
"Very prompt service to replace my screen on my screen door. Excellent work and reasonable price. I would highly recommend this company for screen repair."
"Arrived on time. Trouble shot the problem, found the problem, fixed it. My motion sensor needed to be re mounted after siding crew removed it. It wasn’t getting any juice. Works great now. He also attached the door bell button and replaced the chime box. He will be back to fix a span of my fence in the future."

"Iâ ve hired Your Home Improvement Company several times over the past few years. Windows and siding. Great products and craftsmanship. Great customer service as well! Couldnâ t be happier with this company!"
"Ivan is the most courteous and considerate worker. He removed the carpet on our stairs and put in new wood treads and risers. His work was immaculate and he left the area clean and dust free. We could not be more satisfied with the whole experience, especially how great it looks!"
"I hired Pete for two projects. One, to come out and numerous towel racks and toilet paper roll holders in the home. They were installed poorly on initial construction. The second, to correct a self install I had done of a barn door in front of the master bathroom. I attempted to do the install myself quite some time ago and it did not go as smoothly as I had hoped. He came out and spent us substantial amount of time correcting my work and ensuring it's operation is exactly as it should be. When the work was done, I was happy with the result. Pete was respectful, courteous, informative, and driven to meet not just his standards, but mine. I will absolutely sync up with Pete again for future projects and I recommend you do the same."
There are a number of ways to secure windows. You can add motion detectors or window sensors to detect movement and impact or change the window locks to make them stronger. Some of the ways you can secure windows are much like how you secure a home: closing the curtains at night and setting up security cameras outside so you can monitor your property even in your absence.
Pet-resistant, vinyl-coated polyester is one of the strongest window screen materials available, with some manufacturers touting a 7x increase in strength compared to standard fiberglass screens. Stainless steel security screens are also extremely strong, but they’re not suitable for coastal areas due to the risk of corrosion from salty sea air. If sea air isn’t a concern, stainless steel is extremely tough.
Solar screens are low-maintenance but benefit from occasional cleaning with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washing, as these can damage the mesh. Inspect screens annually for tears or loose frames to maintain performance. In dusty or coastal areas, more frequent cleaning may be necessary to prevent buildup.
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.
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.
