At Window Nation, we know replacement windows. We’re third-generation window replacement experts who have been lucky to provide homeowners replacement windows, siding, and doors for over fifteen years. We opened our first showroom in Maryland in 2006, quickly growing to serve homeowners in cities across the country – and we’re not stopping there. We’re grateful for every homeowner who has trusted us to upgrade their most important asset: their home. We’ve learned a lot about home improvement over the years, but the most important thing we learned isn’t about window replacement. We learned the home improvement industry isn’t about offering the best windows, siding and doors; it’s about the relationships we build with our customers.
"We were told we were getting insulated windows (Addison Plus) but got Addison Lite which is a lower grade of windows. Being a consumer we don't know the names of these windows & the windows we got are more drafty than what they took out. We've had service out several times & said everything is good just not insulated. When we contacted sales Lisa sent us a nasty response saying this is what you got & I will not be responding to any other emails or phone calls. I've called Corporate several times & no help, they just keep sending service out."

"To be fair, there was a lot that went right about this transaction. In the end, however, I am left unable to recommend the Glass Guru. This was for a house that I was in the process of selling and in which I no longer lived. I needed to replace several of the double-pane units in some windows and a door that had lost their seal and therefore allowed water vapor to get between the panes. I did not rate the price in my review, because while the quote I received seemed reasonable to me, especially compared to replacing whole windows and a sliding glass door, given that I've never had anything like this done before, I don't know how competitive the price was. What attracted me most to doing business with this company was their promise to work with me beyond the sale of the house to help me fulfill my obligations to the buyer. That any of this needed doing at all was identified during the inspection after the offer had been accepted. The inspector identified several panes that needed replacing, but also stated that a window professional should inspect more closely to determine if any had been missed. Of course, the clock to closing was ticking and I worried that the by the time I got someone out to identify and measure all the units needing replacement, got the materials ordered, then delivered, that getting installation done before closing would be pretty questionable. The staff at Glass Guru told me that if delivery and installation couldn't be completed in time, they would send me to my closing with documentation that everything is paid for and in the works and that after the closing, I should transfer the order to the new owner and Glass Guru would work with them to finish the job. They assured me that buyers are usually happy with this arrangement and closing goes just fine. Sold! I gave Glass Guru the business pretty much based on that explanation. (And, of course, their Angie's List rating.) A young man met me at the house a few days later and showed me how he identified which units needed replacing and together we went through the house. He then calculated the price and I gave him the required down payment for him to place the order. The delivery date that he anticipated was somewhat promising that installation could possibly happen before the closing date. As it turned out, he was correct. When I got the call that the material had arrived, I was delighted when I was able to provide them with the code to my garage door opener and the installation crew was scheduled to do the installation without me even needing to take another day off work! What service!! When I went to the house that evening, though, I could tell something had not gone according to plan from the moment I walk to the back of the house. The unit in the sliding glass door had not been replaced! Upon closer inspection, I saw that a unit had been installed -- just on the wrong side! That the seal had been broken in the sliding side of the door was obvious to me when it had been shown to me what to look for. The fog between the upper corner of the panes was discernible from across the room. The panes on the stationary side of the door, the young man and I looked at very carefully, because he was saying that if both needed to be replaced, it might make sense to look into replacing the whole thing. But, we determined that the fixed side was good, so ordered only one glass assembly for the sliding panel. With closing on the house only two business days away, I immediately called the Glass Guru office. It was after hours on a Friday and closing was the next Tuesday. I knew as I left a message, than this was probably not going to get resolved before closing. When I spoke with staff Monday morning, I was told that the wrong glass panel had not been replaced -- that when the technician inspected the door, he determined that both sides needed to be replaced and chose to install the new unit in the stationary side, leaving the sliding panel, containing the most obviously clouded panes in the house, undone! I was outraged. But, I needed to get the sale of the house closed and so kept my cool when I was informed that if I wanted the glass unit in the sliding panel replaced, I'd have to buy another pane assembly for it. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place and they knew it. My realtor and I communicated the error and our remedy to the buyer. I went down to the Glass Guru office on the morning of the closing and paid for a second pane assembly (to the tune of over $500) and went to the closing with my receipt and the promise that the installation would happen as previously described after the buyer took possession of the house. The buyer accepted the arrangement as the Glass Guru had earlier promised and the sale went through. Figuring that I wanted to protect the buyer from any fallout from the broken trust I had experienced with the company, I waited to confront the Glass Guru with my dissatisfaction with the position that they had put me in after providing me with otherwise excellent service up to that point. A few weeks after the buyer had taken possession of the house, I contacted her and learned that the glass in the sliding side of the door had been replaced and that she was completely satisfied. I then called the Glass Guru office to appeal my case and ask for a refund of the extra pane assembly I felt compelled to buy to save the sale of my house because the installing technician had taken it upon himself to replace the side not specified in his work order. They refused. Conceding that perhaps the seal on the stationary panel had failed in the weeks after the original order had been placed, or that the young man and I had simply failed to recognize that both sides needed replacing, I asked to split the difference with them on the second unit. The correct procedure would have been for the technician to call the office to explain his discovery and for the office to call me, to at least give me the opportunity to decide how I wanted to proceed. As it was, I had to discover on my own that the most obviously defective pane assembly in the house had not been replaced. Thank goodness I looked before the buyer did her final walk-through before closing! The Glass Guru declined to make any concession whatsoever, saying that their technician had acted correctly by putting the new unit into the side contrary to what was specified in his work order. Thus, what was destined in the beginning to be a stellar review, was lost."

Our goal at JD Hostetter & Associates is to treat every customer honestly, fairly and respectfully. We treat you and your home the way we would want our home and family to be treated with an efficient, low pressure experience. This means that we are available when you need us — whether that be by phone, text, or email. No one makes the right decision under pressure. That’s why we take our time to help you understand the process so you can make a decision at ease. We give you options that fit your needs and budget and won’t try to upsell you on products or services you don’t need. If any problems arise after the project is complete, we are always available for you and will treat you like we treat our own family.
"JD Hostetter struggled with simple tasks like getting the right paint, putting trim in the right spot, or following basic installation instructions. They repeatedly no-call-no-showed, and often just appeared in my yard without warning. My family felt unsafe when the owner, Tom, said he visited my property unscheduled & unannounced while we were inside unaware. When I later met Tom, I was shouted at and talked down to. He kicked & broke my garden light with no apology. His workers were similar; his painter angrily demanded I get on the roof myself when I politely asked him to fix a mistake. The siding they first put on was warped due to poor install and had to be redone. The cheap stuff they replaced it with doesn't match my house. It's lower grade (18-S/W) than even my shed's siding, and they only gave it 1 spotty coat of paint. Also, 2 roofing companies investigating a water leak both stated it was due to flashing damage by JD Hostetter. I've had no response from them about this."

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
The average cost to install a door is around $1,100, but you could pay anywhere from $150 for a hollow-core interior door installation up to $2,000 or a high-end exterior door installation. There are a few cost factors to consider to get an accurate price, including whether your wall opening exists, the type of door, the quality and security of the door, whether you need to replace the frame, and the door size. You can expect to pay $150 to $700 for a standard 36-by-80-inch door and between $400 and $1,600 for an 80-by-48-inch door.
Door installation usually takes three and four hours, including removing the old door and frame, fitting the new door and frame in place, shimming it to make sure it’s perfectly level, and making adjustments to the hinges and locking mechanisms to ensure proper functionality. A door-hanging professional can replace an interior door in between one and two hours. Door installation will take significantly longer if your installer needs to create a wall opening, and it can take less time if the existing door frame remains.
It’s possible to install a door yourself if the wall opening already exists, but the work is rather complicated, and a professional installation is usually well worth the investment. For your door to work and close properly, you’ll need to shim and level the door frame in your wall perfectly, which can be difficult. Additionally, we recommend you always hire a professional door installer to place an exterior door, as mistakes during the installation process can lead to poor security for your home.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
