Description of Work: He installed 2 exterior doors. We purchased the doors from Menard's and there were problems with the workmanship of the doors. He recognized these issues and took care of returning them for us and obtaining good quality doors. The installation was perfect. He knows what he is doing, and is a fair and honest businessman.

Description of Work: They installed two patio doors and removed the old doors, they did clean everything up and were professional and kind in every way. I will be using them again in the next month to install two basement windows. I was impressed and pleased with the service I received.

No work done.
Description of Work: I received this letter, "Mr Evans: There is significant rot on that door and the costs to install the door went up due to the rotted wood. Unfortunately that is what happens when we wait too long to replace a door that needs it. As far as the price for a door, I don't care where someone buys there door from. The cost is for a special order door, which is what your opening calls for. I have no control or friends at Menards. Rob simply called to get a price for your mother so she would know the price of the door that fit her opening, he could have called Home Depot, but we have found Menards more willing to give phone information and service at an affordable price. Not all doors or openings are 72x80. I do not sell doors, I install what you buy. If you do more doors at the same time, I could give you a better install price. (NOT IF PURCHASED THROUGH HERE, I would afford you this discount) It would have been better if you were able to attend the measure so you would understand what wee are discussing. The cost would be significantly more using a North Shore Carpenter. You should definitely shop around to see. " Not very nice as you can tell. I didn't know you could discriminate on the north shore. Plus I was called 10 minutes prior to his arrival when knowingly I was in the city and could not get to Winnetka at that time. The price rose from 340 to 660 plus a 2500 door. I looked up the doors through Menards and found none more than 1000. I felt deceived or baited and switched.

Response from House-Crafters
Thanks for posting a copy of my response letter; it will really help everyone have a clear understanding of the problems faced here in your installation dilemma. House-Crafters does offer free estimates at your home. We also suggest all customers with the decision authority be at the appointed preplanned and scheduled agreed upon time. We had scheduled in advance, we called to say we may be a few minutes late. As an Angie's list customer we are offering a BASIC patio door installation for a much lower coupon price, and if you call me directly...it is 20% more. The basic installation would not include any wood rot on or around your door or any additional work needed to install your door...such as trim or pick up. All doors are different sizes. That is why local home center offer doors not available at their store. The stores only have common sizes on the shelf, (considered stock doors); yours unfortunately is not common (it is considered Special Order). No customer wants to have to purchase a special order door, they are more expensive than shelved items- which is determined by the build of your house and the thickness of your walls. We do not work for any stores or door companies. Our carpentry installation prices are at less cost than that of a Union carpenter or a North Shore Carpenter, knowing that is smart business. Above all, I am only answering here because of the comments you have made. Usually I would not defend myself against a tirade, however, this area is meant to state how my company operates completing carpentry and accommodates people; and you are making statements against my company using misleading information and making it available for all of our current and potential customers to see-when we did not work for you. So, I will say; House-Crafters is reputable, we are super carpenters, and will do what it takes to finish a job. We would have done the same for you. We are always unhappy when a customer is unhappy, unfortunately we did not arrive at that point in our relationship, we did not work for you Thank you for your consideration and have a good day.
