Get matched with top glaziers in Gambrills, MD

"

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.

"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!

"Great small business company. They worked me into they daily schedule same day. They explained the repair, were very professional and I highly recommend them for any of your glass needs."

"I am glad I picked the "Innovative Home Improvement" for replacing vinyl windows after shopping around with at least 5 other companies. Owner was very professional, the crew did an awesome job and cleaned-up place very nicely after installation. The owner personally inspected all the windows after installation and made sure that I am fully satisfied with their job. I am hoping these windows (Alside-Mezzo w/ low-E glass) with life-time warranty (glass, material, labor) for which I paid some extra $$'s upfront will turn out to be good long-term investment. Overall very happy with their job."

"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."

"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.
