"Overall, extremely pleased with outcome. Windows and exterior trim came out excellent. Also had exterior doors and deck sliders done with awesome results. The windows come with a lifetime guarantee, and Morgan likewise guaranteed the installation. PJ the crew chief was a craftsman and highly skilled carpenter. Had 21 windows installed and the Morgan guys really worked hard and efficiently. Money well spent."
"We had a top to bottom, excellent experience with the local team from Universal. My wife and I had an in-home consultation, a measurement and the install completed in a little over a months time. As stated in a prior review, the cost is reflected in the quality of the workmanship. Our family could not be happier with our experience. Big thanks to Kyle, Ron, Mike and Dennis for the top-notch service. I can wholeheartedly recommend Universal Windows Direct to any homeowner in need of a new door, installed quickly and by a friendly, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Thank you again!"
"Augi is extremely professional and completed the job on time, as promised. I couldn’t tell they were at the house at all, except for my excellent new door."
"I got some windows from Power and LOVE their work so we ordered 2 doors too. The doors are amazing and they were very professional and courteous during the install. I continue to be impressed by Power and will continue to reach out to them as needs come up."
"Both siding and windows were done for our entire home. Great work all around, great crew, and finished on time. I would absolutely use their services again!"

"We inherited a very old rental-grade neo-angle shower in our upstairs bathroom when we bought our house in 2006. We did some minor patches ourselves to make it more attractive, but we knew we had to take serious action when the plastic floor of the shower cracked. Asa Wagner was one of three contractors who provided estimates. Other estimates were lower, but we chose Asa because as he discussed the project with us in order to provide his estimate, it was clear that he was foreseeing all the complexity of it and thinking through solutions already (e.g., it wasn't a full bathroom renovation which is often simpler, it's an old house so angles are never plumb, we didn't want to replace the tile floor but it was uncertain if some might get damaged in the process, etc). It was obvious he was approaching it from a perspective of anticipating all possible problems because he was the type of contractor who would make good on any future problems, and leaking showers can cause massive damage. He was also asking a lot of questions, clearly wanting to know what we wanted so he could give us what we wanted. He is also a very good communicator -- discussing the complexities in non-contractror-speak, but also addressing the details in a way that made clear he cared about the aesthetics of the final outcome as if it were his own bathroom. Lastly, we chose him because his proposal was detailed, the price was reasonable, and he was very approachable in addressing questions of money and project scope. We just plain liked him and felt we could trust him.
Asa provided significant consultation up-front during the process of shopping for tile and a 36-inch neo-angle shower (there aren't many out there!). He's very accessible via his cell phone. He agreed to receive shipment of the materials since we were going to be out of the country for a week when they were due to arrive. He also was flexible in terms of scheduling -- we had to reschedule 2 or 3 times due to late deliveries and our own travels. Once the work began, Asa was very conscientious in setting up his workspace in our upstairs guest bedroom by protecting furniture and the floor. He was also very careful to clean up messes he made at the end of each work day. As our house is very old (early 1800s), there were many time-consuming difficulties that arose in the process of the work, which he had known would only surface once he got into the work. Asa took them all in stride and never requested a change order because he had accounted for contingencies in his bid. He was very patient and collaborative with us as we made decisions throughout the process (where to put the new shower head, how to lay out the tile, etc.). Asa also did an excellent job of securing and coordinating the plumbing and electrical subcontractors -- both were outstanding, polite, and conscientious. We know that coordinating subcontractors is often difficult and frustrating, especially on a small job like ours, but Asa had an easy-going, positive attitude and made it all work.
A story from the end of the project will give you an idea of Asa's integrity. Because the grout needs to set for a couple of days before running the shower, he wasn't able to test the shower for leaks. In fact, it did leak significantly the first time we used it. When we called to tell him, he promised to come by and take a look and said, "My instincts told me I should use silicone calk inside the whole glass surround, but the instructions said not to, so I didn't." In spite of it not being his fault, he was there the next day to calk it all. Again, we had to wait a day to test it. It still leaked, but this time less so. He came by again, and spent several hours this time taking apart the whole glass surround and calking it all inside (after calling the manufacturer who contradicted their written instructions and recommended calking inside.) All this, AFTER he had been paid in full AND with no complaining. In summary, the final product is excellent (leaks gone, beautifully aligned tile). Asa pays very close attention to detail and everything he did was high quality. He is committed to customer service, and this was evident to us throughout the process. (One more case in point -- on one of his hardware store trips, he bought a package of the special light bulbs required by the new light/fan, something that we were going to do, but he wanted to save us the trip.) We highly recommend Wagner Home Renovation and we will not hesitate to call on Asa again should we do another renovation project. "
"Dustin C. @ DaBella Boise helped us choose the right windows for our application and personally monitored progress from order to completion. The finished product looks great, but the best part is instantly seeing and feeling the difference between modern tech vs. 40y old aluminum framed windows. No more drafts or condensation! Thanks DaBella!"
Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts
Common problems include leaks, broken glass, and damaged frames. Regular maintenance prevents extensive damage.
Yes, you can absolutely put a screen on a casement window, and most casement windows come with screens. Unlike with a double-hung, single-hung, or sliding window, the screen in a casement window sits on the inside of the window so that the sash can freely open outward. Screens are especially important for casement windows because the large window opening the window provides leaves your home more open to bugs and outside debris than most other types of operable windows.
No, but removing window screens will achieve a deeper clean. If you aren’t sure how to remove your screens, you can still clean them while in your window. You can follow the same cleaning steps, but you may not be able to get into corners or struggle to clean the entire screen if the window is up high.
Screen repair is always worthwhile, as tears and holes in your windows and door screens are unsightly and allow pests and debris into your home, rendering the screen useless. The faster you repair your screens, the faster you can open your windows and doors freely to let the fresh air in. Consider repairing multiple door and window screens during one appointment with a screen repair technician to make the investment and labor costs worth it.
