"Overall, extremely pleased with outcome. Windows and exterior trim came out excellent. Also had exterior doors and deck sliders done with awesome results. The windows come with a lifetime guarantee, and Morgan likewise guaranteed the installation. PJ the crew chief was a craftsman and highly skilled carpenter. Had 21 windows installed and the Morgan guys really worked hard and efficiently. Money well spent."
"This was a window repair job. Yuriy made repairs on 11 windows as needed. After being told by other contractors that my windows could not be repaired and that parts could not be found to repair them, I was very grateful to find someone who could fix them! Yuriy arrived on time, was professional and cleaned up properly after himself. The price was quite fair and I am very pleased to have my window functioning and keeping out the cold air. Yay! I highly recommend this company!"
"Bob is an incredibly kind, honest, and experienced contractor. Bob may honestly be the most refreshing professional Iâ ve worked with in a long time. We had a standard exterior door replaced including widening of jam. Bob and partner completed the job in no more than three hours. Whatâ s even more impressive is willingness to follow-up and respond to concerns or questions. We had a minor adjustment required due to recent heat and door expansion for which Bob happily stopped by to fix in short order. Most contractors seem to avoid any extraneous activity or conversation, but Bob is extremely customer focused. I am excited to work with this team again for our next project!"
"The job couldn't have gone more smoothly. April, in the office, initially allowed me to provide pictures and measurements in order to guide the determination of the appropriate size, thus eliminating the delay of waiting for someone to come out to measure. It was quickly determined that the size was a standard one and the panes were ordered that same day. The installers came out within the same week to install. They were professional and courteous ... and did an excellent job. They even cleaned the doors (both the two panes they repaired and the two they didn't) so that the entire glass wall looks absolutely clear."
"Had power out for a quote on the windows roof and doors and decided to start with the door. The people were very nice and the door came out beautifully"
"I have hired Hi Tech Window and Siding over the years to install windows throughout my house, install siding on my house, as well as entry doors and a sliding door that opens to a beautiful deck which they also installed. Needless to say, my wife and I highly recommend Hi Tech. The professionalism exhibited by Hi Tech is second to none. They use quality products, employ knowledgeable, professional craftsmen and most importantly stand behind every installation 100%. I am proud to recommend Hi Tech Window and Siding to everyone who is looking for a quality contractor. There is no better."
"Osmin and his team did a great job replacing our triple-decker back porch. He worked with an architect, that he found, to make sure there were no variances required. This made the permitting process quicker. It was a tricky job because building codes have changed since the porch was first built."

Window repairs cost $175 to $615, depending on the type of repair.

Tears, holes, or difficulty in opening and closing suggest a need for repair.
The best type of window screen for your home depends on your region and your family’s needs. While fiberglass window screens are a popular, affordable, and easy-to-find choice, you may be looking for different benefits, such as a more high-end look, increased strength, or extended durability. The best window screen meets the demands of your home and its residents while staying within your budget.
Window screens can take anywhere between 10 minutes and an hour to replace, depending on the complexity of the replacement and the accessibility of the window. Replacing the screen inside an existing frame normally takes longer than replacing an entire screen, frame and all, if you purchase a prefabricated screen already mounted on the frame.
The screen material you choose depends on your needs. Here are some differences to consider:
Fiberglass is the least expensive but needs replacing more often.
Aluminum suits almost any job and doesn’t stretch as easily as fiberglass.
Pet-resistant screens are more expensive than fiberglass or aluminum, but they’re also wind and weather-resistant.
Metal screens, like stainless steel, are the most expensive material for rescreening your porch or sunroom. However, they last for years and are golf ball-resistant.
