"This company is first rate. I had used Unicorp several years ago to re-roof our old house, before we moved. They did a great job then, and after we moved 3 years ago to another house, I found out they also did window replacements, so I called on them again. We had them replace several windows at our current home. The work was done on-time, as promised. We are very pleased with the quality and installation of our new windows. The work was done neatly, and on-time as-scheduled."
"Innovative Home Improvement did an excellent job with the installation of our windows for the entire house. Paul and his team are very trustworthy and honor the commitment to the customer for a quality product, excellent service, and superior responsiveness to you no matter the length of time. Even though our initial window install was 20 years ago, one call to Paul resolved a minor problem the next day. Outstanding!!"
"Called and got a response right away. Owner provided guidance over the phone to minimize the water damage. Within two hours Third Generation Cipriano Plumbing Figliozzi Tile had plumbers at my home and were fixing the problem. This company gets it done. Great service, professional and great pricing."
"Clifton Contracting made the whole process so easy from planning to completion. We are thrilled with the window and the complete change in our basement. We chose a larger Anderson window and an upgraded Rockwell window well. No other estimates could match them."
"Spectacular! In the driving snow Jeremiah replaced 2-8x11 window panes, one behind a large storm window that need to be removed, for installation. Been staring at the broken glass for years trying to figure out how it came apart, one look and Jeremiah knew it had to be done from the outside...and that is why I hired a pro."
"Working with Paul and his team was great, Paul showed us the product, explained everything, and what every step would be, his team came in measured, ordered and installed the windows, they look great, have already had 2 people ask for the co. name and number. The 2 team members showed up on time and replaced 5 windows in around 3 hours, cleaned up and where gone. I highly recommend this company."
"A. R. Glass did a fantastic job. Instead of having to replace my windows, they were able to come in and replace the glass for considerable savings. I would definitely have them come again. In fact, I had them come for a second job already."
"I had two old sliding glass doors where the wood around the glass was rotting. The needed to be replaced. I went to the Germantown Home Show and got three companies to come out and do an estimate. Presidential was easily the best choice of the three. The doors got ordered and a month or so later they arrived and were installed the next day. The crew from Presidential was professional and courteous. The door installation went quick and they cleaned up like they weren't even there. I am very pleased with my new doors."
I am so happy that I decided to go with Fox Creek Builders to install my window and 2 sliding glass doors. From order to install the process was excellent + only took about 3 weeks. Amazing since it took another vendor a month to tell me they could not fill the order I previously requested. Max, the owner, came out with Fred to measure and discuss my request. When Fred installed the custom doors + window they fit better than the original doors they replaced---fit like a glove. Fred was extremely pleasant, neat + a precision installer. They removed all the old debris, vacuumed all the rooms, deck + cleaned all the windows after install. I did not even have to remove my blinds during the process + they were particular about routing my outside cable wire. The doors are very high quality argon + insulated glass. My husband + I just love how smoothly both the doors + screens move along with the other bells+ whistles. Even my dog loves the doors + the crew. Max came out and inspected the job + again explained the features so we did not miss anything. We couldn't be more pleased with this purchase--well worth the money + I just wish I had done this sooner. Thanks to the Fox Creek Builders--Great team and Great work.
There are a few reasons your mirrors might have smears on them after cleaning, but the two most likely are remaining cleaning product and minerals from hard water. If you used a commercial glass cleaner, consider spraying down the mirror with a 1-to-1 ratio of white vinegar and water after cleaning and then wiping it dry with a cotton cloth. If you suspect hard water is the issue, use a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol to spot-clean the streaks, and then let the mirror air-dry.
The best way to pack mirrors is to use specially padded cartons or boxes made for mirrors. Be sure to thoroughly wrap the fragile mirror in padded paper or bubble wrap before sliding it into its box. That way, there’s a protective barrier in between the mirror and the box. Then, fill in any gaps with crumpled paper or additional packing materials.
You can add glass to your existing kitchen cabinet doors with a few tools and some patience. We recommend following the DIY steps listed above, which include cutting a panel for the glass, cutting and adding the glass, and reattaching your cabinetry. If these steps seem too complicated or you’d rather have the peace of mind of a professional installation, hire a cabinet installation pro to handle this project for you.
Once you’ve gotten any scuff marks, grime, and burn marks off your glass stovetop you can use vinegar to finalize the clean without leaving streaks. Just put some white vinegar in a spray bottle and spritz it onto the stovetop before wiping it in a consistent direction with a microfiber cloth.
Yes, WD-40 can remove stickers from glass thanks to its chemical properties that can break down adhesives. Be sure to wear protective gloves when handling WD-40. Spray the window or glass item, and let it sit for 10 minutes before scraping it with a plastic scraper or credit card.
