"Painted entire bathroom, put up linen closet wood shelves, put up 2 mirrors, 2 light fixtures, toilet paper holder, hand towel holder, regular size towel holder, 2 robe hooks, had to make a hole for jacuzzi tub to get to motor if we ever have a problem, put in a glass shelf above the tile around the tub, put handicap rail up, put in shower seat, put fixture in shower handle and shower head, tiled entire shower, above the tub, had to move the light switch like half an inch up, put on light switch covers, put up new blinds I had, painted door and put on new door knob.. I think I got it all lol.. It had a lot of little things that needed done, then the tiling, the floor tile was already done except the step to the tub which was a small step. All my sink & tub fixtures were already done. Everything that was put in I already had that we picked out years ago. I wish I could attach photos it's amazing! "
"Eddie was highly knowledgeable and helpful after my kids broke my window during a winter storm. He replaced the glass in a challenging situation. I highly recommend him."
"Brian is easy to get a hold of and easy to work with. He came out on a Saturday to take a look at a leak around my sliding glass door. Worked hard for 4 straight hours installing a fix. Would recommend."
"Presidential Exteriors is a well-managed company. We had twenty-five, very large, windows, two large sliding glass doors and the front door replaced. Everyone, starting with the young man who approached us to talk about the company, the salespeople and the team doing the work was professional, polite, honest, pleasant and super careful. The windows, sliding glass doors and the front door look amazing. Our house is fifty-two-years old and badly needed to be "refreshed". The quality of their products is excellent. While the work was being done, several people from the company came by to check on the progress. After the job was completed, we met with Ben who came by to do a final inspection and answer any questions or concerns we may have. The crew cleaned up and vacuumed before they left. We will use Presidential Exteriors again to replace another door."
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.

"We had a few different windows we were looking to replace, including a set of living room windows, with our stated goal of maximizing glass. I provided a photo of the design we wanted, including the limited separation between the panes for site lines. We selected Whiting after several back and forth questioning to confirm that we would be maximizing glass. We were told that the separation would be 5.5" (they knew another contractor stated 6.5", and we thought that was too wide, would disrupt the site line, and looked too chunky). Turns out by 5.5", they meant 8" from pane to pane (vs. about 2" for our original windows)... I noticed during install and told them that was not what we were told we were supposed to be getting. I immediately sent an email to our salesperson and the installer said I would hear from the owner. The response from the sales person (the next day) was essentially, "Sorry you are unhappy, vinyl has a wider frame (NOW THIS COMES OUT?), please send us a check." I sent the owner an email the afternoon of the install to let him know my issues. The owner did not call until the next day, and said that he was not there to hear our conversation so couldn't do much without talking to the sales person. The next communication was to set up a "final walkthru" by the salesperson. I told him that I wanted the owner available by phone so that he can listen in to the issues, I was told he would be, but he was not dialed in during the scheduled walkthru. Again, the salesperson stated the issue was a wrong assumption and miscommunication. He knew exactly why we didn't select another contractor (their window setup was too chunky). We are now stuck w/a window setup that is clearly not maximizing glass. If you know exactly what you want or live in an HOA community, they may be a fine contractor - as the install went pretty well the team was nice and pretty neat. BUT if you are looking for something that isn't specifically designated by HOA limitations -- I would take what they say the product will look like with a grain of salt.
UPDATE: The company offered us a discount to the contract price due to the "miscommunication." I really appreciated the fact that they promptly sent someone out after the fact (including my initial review) after I emailed them about a draft coming in by the windows. They did what they could (which helped), but seems the main issue was that our siding contractor (not Whiting) had yet to caulk the outside."
"Everything went great. My windows and sliding glass doors look wonderful. The crew was very clean and professional and went through the whole project with me from start to finish. Would definitely recommend."

A window may fail because of age, defective mechanisms, or moisture. Depending on the issue, the window may be fixed with simple repairs. Otherwise, you’ll have to invest in replacing it. You can avoid damaged windows but keeping up with window maintenance.
The cost to remove a mirrored wall from your home ranges between $100 and $3,300, though the average price is only $500. You can save money by doing it yourself, but make sure you have safety equipment such as goggles and gloves, as well as the proper tools (drywall knife, wire saw, and a plastic sheet or tarp to cover the floor).
Bathroom mirrors weigh between 6 and 13 pounds, depending on the size. A 16x20-inch mirror weighs 6 pounds, while a 24x36-inch bathroom mirror weighs 12.5 pounds. Large mirrors, such as a 30x40-inch mirror, weigh 46 pounds. When installing or hanging a bathroom mirror, have a neighbor or partner assist you in lifting and holding the mirror in place. A second set of eyes can also help ensure the mirror is centered and level.
Yes, it is possible to repair a damaged or cracked mirror, but whether you should do it yourself depends on the extent of the damage. For minor issues like small chips, cracks, and scratches, you can use a DIY approach. Resin-based repair kits can fix minor cracks, while scratches can often be removed with metal polish, nail polish, baking soda, or a glass polisher. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the best results.
However, for more significant damage, DIY repair is not recommended. Repairing and resilvering mirrors is a delicate process that can involve caustic chemicals and requires a high level of precision. The materials for a DIY attempt can cost over $100, which may not be a significant saving compared to hiring a professional. Since a failed attempt could result in more damage and higher repair costs, it is often better to hire a mirror repair expert from the start, especially for large, valuable, or extensively damaged mirrors.
If you decide to forgo your old windows and upgrade them to modern day technology, there may be some people interested in the old windows. You can try selling them on an online marketplace for around $50 to $100 each (so long as the window wasn’t damaged during the removal). This can also help off set the overall price to replace them.
