"The results are really nice, but just took too long to complete, otherwise our project would have been rated "A". The process started in late September 2019 when we were asking for estimates. We really liked working with Teresa and selected Excel for the project in November 2019. We got scheduled for January 6th, 2020 to start a project which was to take 2 to 3 weeks. Roman did the remodel and he was fantastic. Great workmanship and easy to schedule with. While 95% of the project was completed in three weeks, delays with the walk-in shower glass and the linen closet doors pushed that remaining 5% completion out weeks. Covid-19 then added to the delays. The linen closet doors were finally delivered on May 5th, 2020. We are happy with the end result, even after the delays."

"Tom and his guys are all amazing on so many levels. We opened an account on Angie?s List as we wanted to find the best quality company and more importantly the best people. We started by calling out the top guys on Angie?s List to get estimates. Tom came out to the house to look at what we wanted and spent the time with us providing an education on every detail which was great because we are not well versed in concrete. He is very easy to talk to and has a great sense of humor. He covered what he would do, what to expect, how things would run, how long before we could use it, etc. He covered things we didn?t even think of. Tom called J.U.L.I.E. and we are on the border of two cities with a mailing address in one and utilities from the other. He did the leg work to figure out how to get the permit. One of the estimates we got prior to Tom we would have had to do that all ourselves. He set and met our expectations well. He provided so many options on the look, pattern design, color, stamped, etc. You can tell he is an expert with experience in his trade. We had a few questions and he took the time to answer all of our questions and did not make us feel rushed. He brought pictures of other jobs he had completed so we could see his work. (Which was amazing!) Tom?s availability is impeccable. Any time we wanted to get in touch with Tom and called him he either answered right away or called back extremely quickly. After Tom left from giving us the estimate we canceled the other appointments as there was simply no comparison to the others. We had a concrete patio poured with a step out our back sliding glass doors and two steps to our front porch re-done as after 14 years as they cracked and left a gap from the stoop. You can tell they all care about the work they do. One thing that was very important to us is that we wanted rounded corners, and we wanted to put our handprints in the patio. They wait until the exact time so we could each put our prints when the concrete was ready. They even helped us snap a picture when doing the handprints. Tom and his team went so far above and beyond our expectations. We were thoroughly satisfied which is what drove us to write a stellar review. Two weeks later we re-hired Tom to drill anchors for our gazebo and install j-channel on the siding. They took extra steps to measure to make sure everything was the same distance all the way around from the edge before drilling. They informed us of the size of the screw driver needed in the event we later wanted to remove the gazebo ourselves. He even gave us extra set of concrete screws. This is going above and beyond as they did not have to do that, but they did as they care. The holes are small so if we ever decide to change the size of the gazebo the holes are easy to fill in and cover. Tom, we are so pleased with you and your crew?s work that in the future when we need work done we will be calling you again and we will be recommending you to our family and friends. In talking with Tom and Zack we learned they do much more that concrete. We will be hiring them in the future to help cut, frame, and install a door out the back of our garage. I feel that the overall level of care and attention that you provided it was like you were pouring your own patio. Thanks a million Tom and your guys ? you do incredible work and we would never go with anyone else but Tom?s Construction. "

"We are overall pleased with the install. However, the guys who installed them left broken glass on my bedroom door that I stepped on. Also, the caulk around the outside could have been smoothed out. Other than that, it was all good."
"Called to school appt for estimate and within 2 days had owner out for estimate. I looked at 3 other companies and was slightly concerned that Best Windows was so much less. But decided to go with them and I am quite happy I did. I was told windows would be ready in 4 to 5 weeks (I had a large customize size window that 2 companies could not meet my requirements). 4 1/2 weeks later got a call for installation and we agreed 2 install was for 3 days after the call. They replaced all 8 windows and one sliding glass door in one day. And there was a lot of dry rot and frame damage they needed to work on. They did a great job. They explained why we had so much air leakage with our old sliding glass door (no insulation a around it at all and it was just places on concrete slab with no buffer so lots of air coming in that way). They clean up inside and outside very well. You couldn't tell they were here other than the lovely new windows. Several neighbors have since asked me who I used since they like the job done on my place. I have no qualms about recommending Best Windows to them."

"Russell gave us an estimate on the windows and glass door that needed replacing. The final cost was exactly as he estimated. We were given a date about 4 months later for the installation. When it got closer to the date, we got a call that they had a opening earlier than expected, so the installers were here about 10 days earlier than originally thought. It was a 2-day install which they told us when they arrived. They were very patient and answered all our questions, cleaned up nicely and were very professional."

Yes, you can hire someone to hang a mirror in your home if you’re unable to tackle the job yourself. You can search for nearby mirror installers, but often, your best bet is a local handyperson. If you’re having other work done in the same room, such as plumbing, drywall, or electrical, those contractors are likely able to help hang the mirror as well—no need to hire someone else.
Glass has one of the longest lifespans of any fencing materials, lasting anywhere from 10 to 30 years on average. Just how long your glass fence lasts depends on several factors, including how well you maintain your fence, the climate, and the type of glass you use.
If you live somewhere with severe weather like hail, tornadoes, or hurricanes, expect your glass to have a shorter lifespan. Pool glass is one of the thickest tempered glass materials and may last longer than other options—especially compared to laminated glass.
The height of a mirror behind a vanity depends on several factors, including the height of the vanity, the placement of the faucet (on the wall or countertop), and the height of the faucet. A good rule of thumb is to hang the mirror 5 to 10 inches above the vanity’s highest point. However, you may need to lower the mirror based on the vanity size and overhead lighting placement.
Hard water stains can permanently damage your glass if left untreated. The minerals dissolved in the water can etch the glass, causing long-term damage and affecting the overall integrity of the surface. Luckily, it is pretty simple to remove hard water stains by using vinegar, baking soda, or commercial cleaners.
Options include framed, frameless, beveled, and custom-designed mirrors. Choose based on style and functionality.
