"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."
"It went great! I called and they were out the very next day measuring and installing new screens in my home. The customer service was outstanding and the installers were very friendly and polite. The prices were much lower than all of the other window companies in the area. I will definitely be using them again."
"They came and installed the windows last October, and I have not been too thrilled with the quality of the windows. Bruce told me that I had a lifetime warranty, but was never given anything in writing. I was never show how to operate these windows as swell. As of right now, when you bring the window in to clean it, you have to be very careful so that the window does not fall off. One of the windows did actually fall off as one of the clips would not allow me to push the window up or down. I am now not able to operate that window without the window falling off. When they came back to inspect the work, I was told that they did not cap the base of that window correctly. Because the window was not capped correctly there is water coming in. They said they would cap the base of that window on my next install. They are coming back out today to fix the window that will not open without falling off and they said they will cap the base of the other window as well. Bruce told me that I would not be charged for any of these problems. When I spoke to the company they said there would be a charge as Bruce was no longer working there anymore. I feel very strongly that I should not be charged for the capping of the window that they forgot to cap."
"I would like to thank the management and all the team members for the wonderful drywall repairs, painting & floating hardwood floor installation they provided. Throughout the entire process the team lead kept me informed of progress. The team was knowledgeable and made every effort to make my vision for my home's new look come to life. The services were performed and completed in a timely manner. The team was punctual and respectful of my property. I am very pleased with the quality of workmanship and would use them again and recommend them to friends and family."
"Technicians were able to perform partial repairs during the primary visit, and returned later the same afternoon to complete the repairs. We are cool again!"
"Jay came out within hours of my call. He advised me that it would not be cost effective to repair my old doors. I will follow his recommendation and get new doors, but I appreciate his responsiveness and advice."
"Oddly enough, it was when Home Services - VA was reporting to my home to complete a scheduled project that a crack in the casing around the bay window was identified. Home Services - VA commented how easy the project would be to complete and recommended the work be corrected as soon as possible to minimize the water damage.
The project was completed in a day. Home Services - VA arrived with all the equipment needed to remove the old material and repair the damage. All damaged material was removed by Home Services - VA. The project was conducted in the front of the townhome. The project drew an audience and several neighbors enlisted Home Services - VA to get their bay windows repaired."

Window Screen Repair questions, answered by experts
It’s possible to make minor screen repairs yourself using a waterproof adhesive for small tears or a screen patch kit for larger tears and holes. However, it’s usually a better option to call in a professional window technician. It’s very easy to use too much waterproof glue, resulting in a messy appearance that might demand a full replacement anyway. A screen repair technician will not only be able to carry out clean repairs and patches that aren’t obvious, but they can also let you know if replacing your screen is a more cost-effective option.
While the telltale signs can vary for different types of screen doors, it may be time to learn how to install a screen door if you're noticing rotting, warping, or splintering accompanying the sagging. If you’re unsure whether to replace a sagging screen door, consult a local screen door pro for an inspection and final decision.
Drafts, condensation between panes, difficulty operating, or visible frames or glass damage are signs of needed repairs.
Most window screens last for about 10 to 12 years, assuming they are made from quality materials and receive proper care. The lifespan of common materials like fiberglass and aluminum can vary based on weather exposure, as constant sun or harsh winters can accelerate wear and tear. Regular cleaning and basic maintenance can help extend their life. Signs that a screen needs to be replaced include rips, tears, brittle or sagging material, fading, or a bent frame. While small tears can often be repaired, larger areas of damage typically mean it's time to replace the entire screen.
Rescreening your porch can take a few hours to a whole day, depending on the size of the enclosure and the amount of screen that needs replacing. If you decide to have a professional handle the rescreening, be sure to get a timeline and a cost estimate so you know how long you’ll be without the screened-in space.
