"Everything was so professional. Andrew and Alex were the best. Always Polite and thoughtful. It was so hot that day, and they just kept going, never missing a beat. I would recommend this company to everyone. I can't stop looking at my door and windows, they are just beautiful."
"Our locksmith was very nice and professional. He was prepared as he knew we needed our garage and front door rekeyed. Was able to get 3 locks done, 2 keys made, and finished with the invoice under an hour. Thank you!"
"I liked that there was no nonsense. Their salesman was straightforward and the price was fair. We were also impressed with the installers. They installed all the windows in 1 day and they look great. I'm happy I chose them."
"The 3 other contactors came up with much higher prices and we did not like that they did not separate labor and materials. One did not appear very honest because because he claimed there were no triple pane Marvin windows ... but that option is available because that is what the selected contractor has ordered from Marvin. It seems that one is best off with a small contractor because the other have large office overhead and slap on extra costs for the window ordering. Ours has not, and he has been transparent on the costs. We have used him before for major projects."
"The process was seamless and quick. Everyone involved in the project was helpful and friendly. It was done in one afternoon and our roof looks great!"
"They were excellent. I always go back to him, I fully trust him and have the ability to fix anything for me. He is very particular about his work, efficient and trustworthy. Easy to work with and will highly recommend to anyone."

"We had American Hime Fitters put in a couple doors and windows. We called about a month ago, they were very prompt and professional showing up on time.

Jay and Shawn were a great pleasure to work with and they made our dreams and expectations happen."

The average cost to repair a window is about $400, with prices typically ranging from $175 to $1,500. The final cost is influenced by several factors, including:
Number of Panes: Single-pane repairs average around $200, double-pane repairs range from $200 to $400, and triple-pane repairs can cost $600 to $1,100.
Type of Repair: Minor fixes for a track, seal, or sash are more affordable than repairs for broken glass or window frames, which are typically the most expensive.
Window Details: The size, type, and material of the window affect the price.
Accessibility: Windows on upper floors or in hard-to-reach locations may increase labor costs.
Other Factors: The extent of the damage, local labor rates, and the need for emergency service will also impact the total cost.

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.

If sea air isn’t a concern, stainless steel is extremely tough.
