"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."
"We are extremely pleased with our experience with Wheaton Door & Window (WDW). We had interviewed a few door & window companies to replace our 1977-vintage windows and doors in a 2 level condo. While everyone could replace the windows, it proved difficult to find a provider for the French doors, which were of a size that nobody carries anymore. This regrettably put us in expensive custom-made land. Peter (the salesman) gave a great in-home demonstration of replacement windows and after a couple hours was able to find an option for the French doors and the screen doors (which surprisingly were even more difficult to find than the glass-paned doors!) This was in stark comparison to another contractor who had no solution for the French doors, and the price was substantially less than what a nationally-known window company quoted me for its windows and custom French doors. Peter was also cognizant of the condo community's architectural requirements and made sure the doors and windows would comply. After placing the order and putting 1/3 down, Joe came and measured. Before WDW placed the order with the custom supplier, Joe came back and measured a second time, which gave us great comfort that things would be done right the first time. After placing the order, our condo suffered a casualty that took several weeks to repair. When WDW received the doors and windows, they patiently held them until the restoration work was completed. Amber and Bobbie from the installation department checked in periodically while the work was being done to keep tabs on when the installation could begin. Once I gave the word, Chris and his crew installed the windows and the very tedious doors over a 1 and a half day period. They had great attention to detail, going so far as to repaint some nicked areas around the doors. The installation and the product are both proving to be outstanding. The condo now retains heat so well that the heat pump rarely kicks on (even when the outside temperature fell through the 30s last night), and sounds from outside are nearly imperceptible. On top of all of the outstanding work, they let us pay with a credit card for no extra charge, giving us bonus frequent flier miles. So from sales pitch to installation to the ease of payment, WDW was great to work with. We are now big fans and highly recommend them for door and window replacement. "
"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
The screen material you choose depends on your needs. Here are some differences to consider:
Fiberglass is the least expensive but needs replacing more often.
Aluminum suits almost any job and doesn’t stretch as easily as fiberglass.
Pet-resistant screens are more expensive than fiberglass or aluminum, but they’re also wind and weather-resistant.
Metal screens, like stainless steel, are the most expensive material for rescreening your porch or sunroom. However, they last for years and are golf ball-resistant.
You can trim an overhead garage door screen to fit your garage door opening. This is a particularly helpful hack if you have an irregularly sized garage door opening but are still interested in installing a garage door screen to keep pests and debris out. Trim the garage door screen carefully to avoid unsightly edges or an uneven fit.
Professionals clean window screens the same way a homeowner can—by removing the screens and cleaning them with a sponge. A window cleaning pro may come with better equipment, like a high powered wet/dry vacuum or pressure washer to speed up the process and achieve a deeper clean.
Yes, adding windows adds value to a brick house. Homeowners don’t shy away from more natural light and an opportunity to get fresh air. Adding a window is particularly beneficial if you live in an area with good weather for much of the year or if your home has a nice view. Keep in mind that many older brick homes have historic wood windows that add to the charm of the house. When you install a new window in a brick house, you’ll want to find one that matches the aesthetic of the existing windows.
While windows increase a home’s value, how much they increase it can vary. It depends on the age of the home and the type of windows. You can expect about 70% to 85% return on investment (ROI) when adding a window to your home.
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.
