"Jim responded promptly to my order placed on Angie's List for the Remote Computer Tune Up & Repair Deal. He cleaned up the computer remotely, which was running very slowly, and required frequent re-boots. Computer is running much faster now. Great service. Would highly recommend.
"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."
"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
Whether you should repair or replace a screen door depends on the type and extent of the damage. It is easy and economical to repair a small tear in the mesh using a widely available DIY patch kit. However, if there are large tears, multiple damaged spots, or if the screen is made of a specialized material, replacing the entire screen mesh might be a better long-term investment for a tidier appearance. You should also consider the condition of the frame; if the frame itself is damaged, it's likely time to replace the entire door. Other factors to weigh include whether you want a new style or need a more durable door.
While the benefits of garage door screens usually outweigh the downsides, there are some cons to installing one. First off, they can be quite expensive, especially if you’re having a professional install a retracting screen or a custom size screen. Second, they let fresh air and natural light in, but they also don’t provide the same privacy from people in the neighborhood that a solid door does. As you might guess, screens also won’t insulate your garage, so they’re often not usable in colder weather.
The cost ultimately depends on size, but roughly, the most popular screen materials will set you back anywhere from around $0.25 to over $25 per square foot. Fiberglass and aluminum are usually less expensive at around $0.25 to $0.70 per square foot. Solar screens cost about $7.50 to $15 per square foot, while security screens range from around $10 to $25 per square foot.
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.
If you’re not keen on using a traditional doggie door, there are some alternatives. One popular option is a solid, insulated door that you can lock when you’re out of the home for added security. You can also opt for a doggie screen, which you can lift and lower to allow your pooch access to the outdoors. These are a bit more convenient to use than a regular exterior door, although security could be an issue. You can also install a screen door with a small opening for your pup to prevent bugs from coming inside as your dog exits.
