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":10}]}

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 sliding glass door is awesome. They also took down an overhang that was in the way of the sliding glass door. The only problem is they didn’t replace the steel corners on the siding that was removed & I am having a hard time doing it my self. The window had to be ordered so it hasn’t been...

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...

Security Doors questions, answered by experts
Yes, if you’re replacing a door slab, it must be the exact size of your existing door. If your new door is too small, you’ll need to purchase a new door to fit or hire a handyperson to make your frame smaller. Or if it's too big, you’ll need to return it or shave it down to fit.
The vast majority of hinges are symmetrical, and either side of the hinge can go on the door or the frame. Occasionally, you'll find a hinge specifically made for right or left-handed doors with different attachment hardware or larger plates on one side. In most cases, the large side of the hinge goes on the frame.
It is possible to install hinges backward, so be careful when placing them. Position the hinge so that the hinge pin faces the direction the door will swing. For example, if you're standing on the side the door will open into, the pin should be visible. Be extra careful when installing exterior doors, as placing the hinges on the outside for an outward-facing door makes your home much easier to break into.
Clean glass and frames regularly, lubricate hinges, and inspect seals for wear to ensure functionality.
You can determine what size storm door you need by measuring for the storm door. Take the width at the top, middle, and bottom of either your front door or an existing storm door, then measure the height on the left, center, and right of the door. Buy a storm door that matches your measurements' smallest width and shortest height.
The best patio door material comes down to what matters most. Wood doors win for custom looks and natural warmth, but need regular maintenance. Steel options offer better security and low maintenance; however, the design choices are slim. Vinyl is an easy pick—affordable, low-maintenance, and energy-efficient—even if it’s not the most high-end looking. Ultimately, the right material for your patio door depends on whether you’re chasing style, security, simplicity, or a little bit of everything.
