"It took him just a day to reach out to me after I purchased the deal. He only does shower doors and I needed a tub enclosure so I got a refund from Angie’s List."
"Pleasant voice when I called about leaking shower door; helpful discussion of whether I needed a service call at my home or whether I could do it myself. I decided I needed a service call. Staff made 2 visits: first one assessed what needed to be done and got door adjusted. Second visit 4 days later repaired the fixed panel of glass. All workers were friendly and professional. Results are good: no leaking and both glass panels line up properly. "

"Allen quickly responded and scheduled a timely appointment to come to our home and provide an estimate. He was thorough in assessing the situation in our bathrooms, and provided helpful education and information. He ultimately repaired the grout in 3 bathrooms and referred me to another resource for further (more extensive) repair work in one of our bathrooms that was outside the scope of his services. He notified me via text when he was on his way and how long he expected to be there. He protected the areas he worked in and was neat and cleaned up the areas afterwards. He also assisted in removing a shower door in anticipation of another contractor who was to begin work in a couple of weeks."
"One structure in the form of a arbor with a gate completed our fence. The other structure a small deck outside of the lower sliding glass doors, with a pergola added, gives a quiet shady respite to the yard. We also had Hal design and build a fountain feature added to the garden area itself. Which gives a soft and flowing water sound near the small deck. The work overall is outstanding with a very finished look. It was also accomplished as per estimate of time and cost. They were very considerate to make the work space neat and clean each day at finish time.
We would "highly" recommend these contractors to anyone wanting this type of excellent yard work done. "
"Professional and knowledgable. Communicated promptly and often. They put new hinges on a drafty front and a garage door and sealed the drafts, to get through the winter."
"he was very pleasant and helpful but had a family emergency so wasn't able to complete the list but promised he would come back later to do some painting I needed done on deck and garage door."
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.
Yes, basic dusting of doors, door hardware, and door glass is usually included when you hire a house cleaner to clean your home. A house cleaner may also vacuum door frames or clean tracks in sliding doors if these tasks are requested. However, house cleaners generally will not touch up scuffs or other markings on doors. Consider hiring someone who repairs doors to handle these issues for you instead.
If you’re installing a pocket door into an existing door opening, the new space will need to be twice the width of the existing door, plus an inch. You'll need to double that number if you’re adding dual pocket doors.
Yes, pros adjust frames and guide rails to fit unique dimensions.
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.
