Get matched with top glaziers in Colesville, MD

"I must admit, I had Unicorp replace all of the windows in our home with new vinyl energy efficient windows 10 or more years ago. Their installers were excellent. The quality of their windows were excellent. The proof in the pudding is that after 8 years not one of my windows has an air leak. Not one has leaked water. Not one window has had the vinyl or track break. In short, nothing has happened. Now that's a quality window! We also purchased a custom sliding glass door (in the kitchen to the deck) from Unicorp that to this day I believe is the best door in my entire home. That door is opened and closed constantly to let the cats in and out. If you own cats, you will understand how often that door is opened and closed on a daily basis. We have not had a single hiccup ever with that door. And in the winter, I sit right behind the door and no matter how cold or windy it is, I never feel a thing at the kitchen table. Because Unicorp did such a great job in replacing the windows in our home, my wife insisted that we use Unicorp to replace the roof last week. If you see my review on the roof, they did a 5 star job."

"This is the second time that we hired Zen Windows for a project, and we could not be more pleased with the service, professionalism and the results on both occasions. They are very responsive, helped us identify the right products and made the entire process as stress-free as possible. Replacing windows and doors is a big project, and having a company you can trust will do it right makes all the difference. Scott and his team are great to work with!"

Paul (the owner) was great. The inner side of the two panes of glass in my sliding glass door randomly shattered but was still in place (hadn't fallen out) -- after looking through Angie's list I decided to call him for an estimate. I think he said he could come by the next day -- but then 20 minutes later he called me back and said due to the situation that the glass could fall out at any time, he felt he should come by that day to look at it and give an estimate. And he did -- with duct tape in hand to see if he could help prevent it from falling down. He explained that a replacement door was unfortunately going to cost significantly more because the door was 8 ft wide and required Columbia's brown color on the outside.  He gave me the quote, some information on the product he uses, and his card and told me to call when I was ready.

I got two additional quotes before calling Paul back. One was by a guy who kept pushing me to sign the contract that night in order to get this great deal that I could only get by signing right then.

It took awhile to actually get the door from the manufacturer because I waited too long to call and tell him to order it -- the had manufacturer closed down for the holidays.  But when it came in, Paul called and we schedule the installation.  Two of his guys were actually early, got everything started and finished the installation with no issues.  Paul called me while they were there and came by when he was able to later that day to check the work and make sure I was satisfied.  He called me again a week or so later to check up and see if I had any questions or problems.

Issues:

The wait to get the door and have it installed was rather long (especially since the glass could fall at any time) but that was just due to poor timing and the time it took me to decide.  The only other issue was that a few weeks later when it was finally warm enough with no snow to go out and really look at it, I found pieces of broken glass on the ground outside -- I didn't watch them take out the broken door but it seemed like they tried to contain most of the pieces from when the shattered pane of glass came out.  However, there were still pieces, both big and small, that I'm having to pick up or do something about in the grass right outside the door.  It's annoying but not such a big deal to me.

Overall:

Going with Innovative Home Improvement (Paul Harrison) did cost more than the others -- possibly significantly more but I also got a high quality product.  And I'm not sure if the other quotes included EVERYTHING or if there would have been additional things like instillation added on (unlike Paul's quote).  I really liked that it's a small company and Paul does great customer service with no pressure sales.  He's the one you talk to, he's the one that came for the estimate and he's the one who came by to make sure the installation went well.  He's easy to get a hold of and calls a week or so after the work is finished to check up and answer any questions.  I think that's rare these days. 

I later called him for a rough estimate on replacing my other sliding glass door which has really bad drafts... it's on my list of things to get done, but it will have to wait until I can afford it.

"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.

"It was a job well done. Glad to choose them for my roof"

"I received several quotes to replace five windows in my home. Whiting Co was significantly less than other companies. I was a little nervous to go with the lowest bidder, but the salesman Ken was reassuring and explained the whole process. There were no heavy sales tactics and everything was straight forward. The installation crew was efficient and did a great job. They left the house clean when they were finished."
