"The installers were great. The salesperson made promises that he did not keep and he missed a window. When the person came to measure he also didn’t catch that I was having all my windows done except one. The windows look great. The response when I notified the co that one window was missed was very fast but added to my cost."
"My computer (Windows XP) was running very slow and had become almost inoperable. It was taking a very long time to process anything, especially anything to do with the internet. IE was taking 100% of the cpu most of the time. Jim worked on my computer remotely for several days defragging, cleaning, anti-virus, malware, etc., but could not get it to perform anywhere near where it should. We decided that I needed a new computer. Jim built me a new computer (Windows 7 with racing stripes). The new system works very well and I am pleased with it. When Jim switched my files over from old to new, the Kodak Easy-Share program with my pictures did not get transferred. He has promised to make that transfer when he installs a new door covering the DVD reader which was broken upon setup. I will update this review when this occurs. I am very pleased with the new system and would do it all over again if a similar situation were present. "
"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. "
"Reule Sun did a FABULOUS job on our house, with incredible attention to detail, extremely thorough preparation, total job-site neatness and cleanliness, lightning responsiveness to any issues which arose, and a very high level of craft. The workers were polite, respectful, friendly, and very conscientious. You will pay for this. But we found it more than worth the difference. After watching our job, the neighbor across the street has hired them for a complete stucco job and also new windows. (If your windows are within shouting distance of needing replacement, do these just ahead of the stucco 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."

It is generally recommended to remove window screens for the winter, especially in climates with heavy snow, freezing rain, or frigid temperatures. Removing them helps prevent damage to the screen mesh and frames that can be caused by ice and moisture buildup between the screen and the window. Taking out the screens also allows more natural light and warmth into your home during shorter winter days and makes it easier to clean your windows thoroughly. In warmer climates where harsh weather is not a concern, the decision is more about personal preference; some homeowners prefer the clearer view, while others leave them in for convenience.
Bifold windows work by using a track that allows panels to slide to the side and "stack" so they take up minimal space, leaving the largest opening. The sashes connect to each other with butt hinges or concealed hinges and to the window frame with the same type of hinges you’d find on a casement window. Some manual bifold windows also have casement stays or another piece of hardware to keep your windows in place when they’re open.
