The reason for the lower mark on responsiveness is that we had to ask for our key back more than once. I didn't get a response until the third or fourth time, and the owner apologized and said she was busy. I don't think this is a bad company, but they could use some tightening up of processes. One never knows the full story unless you walk a mile in their shoes, but the cleaning services market is competitive, and we found another service.

When I met him, I said the most important thing I needed was doors that were easy to open and close.
He got started right away, but his regular job prevented him from being in town for the next day that he was going to work on our doors, and he forgot to call and tell me. So, I sat around all day waiting for him.
When he finished all the doors, I asked about the doors not closing properly. He said I was pushing the door up against the door jamb too hard. When we said and quot;good bye,and quot; his last comment was, and quot;Give me a good review on Angie's List,and quot; but the last comment should have been, and quot;If you have any problems call me.and quot;
I was still having problems closing doors so instead of calling him I ground the edges off the latches so that they would slide into the strike plate easier. Later, I found out that he should have installed the strike plate closer to the door jamb to allow I have now.

Their prices are reasonable and many years we have found them to actually be a tad bit less costly than several of their competitors when we were "price shopping." They even offer a pre-pay option (for multiple applications) that, if chosen, amounts to something like a 5% discount on each application.
After each application, they do mark the yard with a "stay off lawn/no pet, children for 24 hours" sign and they also leave a "lawn spraying record" in the door for our review. The lawn spraying record indicates the date/time of their visit, the wind direction and speed at the time of application, the square footage treated, the applicator's name and license number, etc."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/mn/owatonna/owatonna-groundmasters-reviews-4757692.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"JACK'S NURSERY & LANDSCAPING","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"MN","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Heather G."},"reviewBody":"Overall, my husband and I were very pleased with Jack's work. He was professional, timely, and the finished product was exactly what we were expecting. We will be completing another landscaping project sometime in the next year or so and Jack will be our "go to" person for that project too.
Other notables:
1. Jack's work also came with a "one year guarantee," which we almost took advantage of when we thought that our hydrangea tree hadn't made it through its first winter. Jack came out and took a look at it and offered to replace it if we weren't happy. We decided to give it a bit longer before uprooting it and replacing it with another...as it turned out the tree blossomed and has looked great every year since.
2. Jack was willing to work with my husband (a fast-learning "do it yourself-er") and offered a small discount on the labor portion of our bill.
3. The only "downside" to the entire project, in my opinion, is that the sedum plants were planted next to the walkway to our front door. I specifically asked that these be placed elsewhere due to the fact that even though they are pretty they do tend to attract flies, bees, etc. When I got home from work I found them planted...next to the walkway. Had we asked Jack to move them elsewhere, I'm sure he would have done so in a heartbeat. However, my husband and I decided to "live with it" since they only bloom once and do so late in the season. We decided that if it turned into a problem we could simply remove them ourselves and plant something else in their spots.
As I previously mentioned, overall the project went very well and we will not hesitate to use Jack's Nursery and Landscaping again in the future."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/mn/owatonna/jack%27s-nursery-and-landscaping-reviews-5791427.htm"},"position":9},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"The Garage Door Guy Inc","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"MN","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Les A."},"reviewBody":"They came very quickly and got the job done.

DO NOT RECOMMEND!! We paid them $1550 as a down payment for new garage doors in April/23. I had to follow up in May & June on when they would be installed. He set 3 dates and made excuses as to why he never showed, then stopped returning our calls and messages. We worked with our credit...

The project went very well. A licensed contractor with 2 other men came to install the door. Both doors were extremely heavy. It took all of them to get the old door out and new door in. They measured the door and space and the contractor had the necessary wood and trim to fit the door...
We initially purchased the Angie's List Deal for four hours of cleaning. The initial cleaning went well. The girls did a great job (3 of them for 1 hr 20 min), and I began a schedule for every other week on a day that we weren't home. The first time back, they did great. The time after...

FAQs for security door installation projects in Elmore, MN
The average cost of a home security system is about $700, ranging from $280 to $1,150. Costs to consider include equipment, surveillance fees, and other additional features. Cost factors that determine your system’s price include the type of security system, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly fees, and permits.
Additional features and upgrades may include:
Video surveillance monitoring: $40–$65 per month
Smart home locks: $150
Smart home lighting: $15–$90
Smart smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide alarms: $35–$100
Smart thermostat: $130–$500
Door installation usually takes three and four hours, including removing the old door and frame, fitting the new door and frame in place, shimming it to make sure it’s perfectly level, and making adjustments to the hinges and locking mechanisms to ensure proper functionality. A door-hanging professional can replace an interior door in between one and two hours. Door installation will take significantly longer if your installer needs to create a wall opening, and it can take less time if the existing door frame remains.
The average cost to install a door is around $1,100, but you could pay anywhere from $150 for a hollow-core interior door installation up to $2,000 or a high-end exterior door installation. There are a few cost factors to consider to get an accurate price, including whether your wall opening exists, the type of door, the quality and security of the door, whether you need to replace the frame, and the door size. You can expect to pay $150 to $700 for a standard 36-by-80-inch door and between $400 and $1,600 for an80-by-48-inch door.
Yes, a home security system can be worth it for your peace of mind alone, but it can also save you up to 20% on your home insurance. The insurance savings will help defray the initial setup costs and subscription costs over time. Locations with higher crime rates also make home security systems a valuable investment, but it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and asset values.
It’s possible to install a door yourself if the wall opening already exists, but the work is rather complicated, and a professional installation is usually well worth the investment. For your door to work and close properly, you’ll need to shim and level the door frame in your wall perfectly, which can be difficult. Additionally, we recommend you always hire a professional door installer to place an exterior door, as mistakes during the installation process can lead to poor security for your home.
