"We had discussed replacing our windows so when PK sales representative showed us the type of windows they used and showed some of their former work we decided to go with their company. He gave us a quote that seemed reasonable for all that we wanted to do. Within a short time Peter Larson, the owner, came to take measurements, answer questions and give his expert advice when asked. He was extremely easy to work with and very honest. The team worked quickly yet very careful to do every job correctly. It took about two weeks to complete our project. We are extremely pleased with the appearance of our house as it looks so updated and fresh with all that was done. We would definitely recommend this company to others and plan to use them in the future for other construction jobs. "
"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."
"Sales process was good, courteous and helpful. Installation instructions were easy to follow. Did have a small issue with one sensor which was easily solved with a call. Control panel is easy to use and well constructed. Phone app is the best part. Not a big fan of a 2 year contract and the monthly rate feels a little high, but definitely a decent system. I had emailed them a question pertaining installing on double hung windows and never received a reply, but other than that their phone support prior to that was good."
"I called the day on Thursday, got a few details and asked if they could detail my car on Friday. We set up an appointment at 2pm at my house. (Cool, points for availability). I had some errands to do on Friday but thought I could do them and make the 2pm. At 1:50pm I got a call from them saying that I was late for my 1:30pm appointment. I explained that the appointment was for 2pm and that I would be there in 5 minutes. I arrived at 1:55pm and they started detailing my car. I went in the house to wait. I checked on them a couple of times and it seemed that they had teams of people that specialized in different things because I saw different faces each time. After 2 hours, they rang my door bell to let me know that they were done. I examined the car and my first impression was that it looked like it had just been driven off the car lot. Looked great. When I looked a little closer I found a few issues. First, the front window was badly streaked. I mentioned it and they immediately started working on it. I then noticed that the head lamps had not been cleaned. They said that they would work on it but to really do it right I would need to purchase an additional package where they buffed the head lamps clean. I thought that I was paying a premium for the detailing service and expected this to be a part of the package but apparently not. (Negative points). I paid them the money, signed some paperwork and prepared to drive my car into the garage. I then noticed that I was missing my foot mats. Luckily, they were still in the driveway and I asked them about them. The guy said that they had put them aside so that they could dry and had forgot to put them back. He said that they were still wet and suggested that I leave them out so that I didn't develop mold in my car. He then got in the van and left. I examined the foot mats and immediately realized that they weren't wet. In fact, they were dusty and had never been cleaned. Disappointing! So, overall I was happy with how the car turned out. The car looks great. I have never had my car detailed before so I am not sure about my level of expectation. I did ask around and a few friends mentioned $200 for detailing. I had one friend that had a groupon for an $80 detailing. For the price I paid, I expected very minor issues. I didn't like that the guy lied to me about the foot mats and the head lamp cleaning should have been part of the service. Otherwise, I am happy with the service. The next time I detail my car, I will try a different detailer just to see if this is par for the course or that I should have demanded more. "
"They replaced 11 windows, a patio door and re stuccoed 3 sides of my house. I was impressed when they came out, they showed me the windows and what they would do and how they would look and work, Since there was brick in the front those had to be inserted differently then the other ones. When they came out to measured they measure the top, bottom and middle to make sure they would get the right size and the windows look very well, they work very well and the stucco is great. It was just a wonderful job."

"This is a first class operation. From the moment I walked in I was greeted by one of the owners, Phil. They did the work quickly and professionally. I've had several windows tinted over the years, and the quality here was outstanding. I've recommended them to other people. "
"I have two homes and both homes are under the contract. I had one situation that left me almost in tears. I still do not have my air conditioner fixed that broke in June. I had ten scheduled appointments with them. I always tried to listen to the technician so I could pass along information to the next. I wish they would relay the information back to American Home Shield. It got to the point where I purchased two window units to keep us cool. One of the providers frightened me and I called American Home Shield to have them never send that provider out to me again. This experience really soured me towards them."
Most modern egress windows installed in basements open outward into a window well, although some older homes have in-swing windows. Egress windows, like casement windows used in other parts of the home, such as bedrooms and bathrooms, may open inward, and these windows are often larger than outward-opening windows.
The most likely cause of smearing or streaking after cleaning your windows is residue left on the glass from the cleaner you’re using. Consider diluting the solution and cleaning them again, or use old newspaper to dry the windows after cleaning, as this will soak up any residual material. Additionally, aim to clean your windows on a cool, cloudy day, as cleaners will dry more quickly on the glass if it’s hot and sunny, promoting streaking.
Yes, you can always make an existing window bigger, but the job complexity varies widely depending on the location of the window and the framing around it. Exterior walls are always load-bearing, so making windows wider will require structural changes that make for a more complex but doable project. Making windows taller often won’t require structural changes.
To tell if a window is single or double-pane, focus on the edge. Double-pane windows have two glass layers separated by a spacer, which you can usually see around the edges. For single-pane windows, it’s just one sheet of glass. Another easy trick: shine a light at the window—single-pane glass reflects once, while double-pane glass reflects twice. Lastly, if you feel both sides of the glass on a cold day, double-paned windows will feel warmer because of the insulating gap between the panes.
Most homeowners prefer to service their windows during the spring or fall when temperatures are the most bearable, and having large openings in your wall won’t drastically increase your heating and cooling bills. However, while these seasons are the most convenient, you’ll also tend to pay more for window repair due to the increased demand. If you want to reduce labor costs, consider making window repairs in the off-seasons. Avoid waiting until the heart of winter to do repairs, though, as you could run into leaks and heat loss issues.
