"Sam was great, he does excellent work and cleans up after the work is done. He is very thorough and does the the work like it is his own house. Highly recommend he did two windows and a door."
"EcoView has been absolutely amazing to work with. They gave us an amazing price on the siding and all our windows and doors. We didn't feel pressured to sign a contract like we did with other companies. We were so lucky to work with Anthony, Rob, Steve, Diana and Carlos's crew. Not only did they do an amazing job on our siding but we happened to have another company at our house to give us an estimate on our doors and windows (we didn't know EcoView did doors and windows as well) and we were so lucky that Steve had stopped by to see how the job was coming along. EcoView ended up saving us $10k compared to the other company. Carlos's team did our siding and they did such a great job that we requested his team again for the windows and doors. Rob and Steve were very quick to respond when we would call or text with any questions or concerns. We loved our experience with EcoView so much that we recommended them to a friend within days of getting the work done!"
"They addressed all of my concerns without hesitation and to my satisfaction. They gave me a fair price. I thought the workers were experienced and had a good technique of capping the windows to prevent water leakage. They exceeded my expectations."
"Sheldon and his staff were courteous, attentive and timely in my project in replacing 3 closet doors They were very detail oriented and completed the job to my satisfaction."
"CSS Glass was great. Very timely and responsive in communication. Extremely pleasant and courteous and he did great work. I would definitely hire them again."
"I was extremely happy with this company. I liked the fact that he would come to install one door. (Good to his advertisement, he goes to Suffolk county) It turned out to be more than the one door.. He returned my call, the same day. I found Greg, a pleasure to deal with. I chose his company to call, over 3 other names I felt fortunate, it worked out so well, and I made an excellent choice. Now have the name of someone who handles all types of home repairs, that does excellent work. I was extremely impressed, that upon walking up to my door, he removed the snow, off the steps. Top notch company!"
"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."
"When I am having work done on my home, I want folks that are knowledgeable, reliable, and punctual. I had a REALLY good experience with Zavza Seal. They are an incredibly well-run organization. Before any work is done they provide you with a PDF estimate with photos and detailed descriptions of the work being done. You then receive an invoice (that agrees to that estimate) payable by checking or credit card (via Quick books). Their billing department is separate from their workers, and all workers were supervised by a manager who was also responsible for doing the estimate. From the start of the estimate, I felt taken care of. Dice their admin was incredibly responsive to all my questions, emails, and texts. Jake the manager of the team was incredibly thorough when overseeing my project, and Andersen (who was doing a lot of the project work), was incredibly professional and always took the time to explain to me what they did and what was left to do before they left my home each day. Everyone always showed up on time when they said they would. I had a relatively large project - waterproofing my exterior and then replacing a sinking floor in my porch from old water damage. They tackled outside first to ensure no more water would get into my interior. I was sealed up outside with base create (concrete used for pool settings), and sealant. They addressed every single spot I wanted to be covered, and also sealed up spots I had no idea needed sealing. They worked around my schedule, and it was great that I had a point of contact outside of the day-to-day workers (Dice their admin) that I could reach out to for scheduling, questions, invoicing, etc. I love the fact that these are two separate parts of the business. Each part does its job very well and it makes a great customer experience. My porch floor was a larger project since the beams holding the floor up were rotted and needed strengthening. The floor needed to be ripped up and with that - we went with all new tile. I was talked through every step of the way, and where project costs needed to be increased, it was very transparent and I was always consulted and presented options and reasoning. Every quote for all work done was incredibly reasonable. I never felt gouged or nickeled and dimed. It was always a fair price for the work and materials. I could not ask for better communicators. Before I settled up the final payment I was walked through all the work done, and they understood I wanted to run my water test before paying the balance to ensure all the leaks I was having were settled. This required them to wait 48 hours (for the base to create and sealant to cure) for me to do that, and I never felt pressured, or questioned as to why I wanted to do that. The basement is dry now, and I have peace of mind! This company cares about doing good work, standing by that work, and ensuring the customer is satisfied. Every question/concern I had was addressed and answered. I always try to be a good partner to the contractors I hire (being clear and transparent about what I want done, limits to my schedule/budget, honest assessment of the situation, paying on time when work is done, etc.), and I appreciated that Zavza Seal recognized that, and reciprocated it, not all contractors do. The work done on my home came with a 5-year warranty. I hope that I never have to use it, but I know this team stands by their work, and I am confident I will be taken care of if I have any issues. This is incredibly rare these days, and I will be recommending, and using them in the future! Seriously the best experience I have ever had with a contractor."
Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts
Many windows carry warranties from the manufacturer or installer that may cover the cost of repairs for a fixed amount of time. When installing or replacing windows, ask about any applicable warranties, what kinds of damage and repair they may cover, and what the procedure is for making a warranty claim.
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.
Yes, a variety of screen materials cut out glare from the sun. Solar screen material can block up to 90% of the glare and heat from the sun, saving on cooling costs. It also offers privacy yet unlimited outward visibility. The cost depends on the size of the screen roll, but solar screens cost between $25 and $90 per roll.
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.
There are a number of ways to secure windows. You can add motion detectors or window sensors to detect movement and impact or change the window locks to make them stronger. Some of the ways you can secure windows are much like how you secure a home: closing the curtains at night and setting up security cameras outside so you can monitor your property even in your absence.
