They were good.  They're not cheap but for around New York and Queens it's not too bad.  They're about the only people I could recommend highly.  It was a couple thousand dollars and the work was excellent, it was really good.  They were very clean and they, I had a problem with the storm door wasn't closing or it was broken and the lock on the door, this was after the job and they actually sent somebody, I called them up and I think one of their mechanics to look at it.  The mechanic says that it's not their fault, it's the manufacturers fault.  So I thought we were out of luck but they have a representative in the area once a month or so and sure enough he came like they said a month later, well you know within a couple of weeks.  The guy examined the door and he said I was right and the thing was a manufacture defect so essentially to make a long story short, they replace the whole glass storm door and screen all together.  They were good with that job.  They did a good, you know, the call back thing was cool,  but they did, so I'm happy with that experience actually.  I was actually more happy with it afterwards, you know, that they followed up and that's why I would recommend them in dealing with them.  I would definitely use them again.

The provider was excellent.  We were seen very quickly at Wendel's office and were able to conclude the purchase on our first visit. When the door was ready we were able to make an appointment that was convenient for us with no problem and the installer showed up precisely on time.  Ours is an older home and the door jamb naturally has become out of alignment over time.  The installer took the time (over an hour) to set and reset the door so that there was absolutely no gap (which existed on the previously installed door) and the door function smoothly and properly.  Also, all debris was removed and the area was thoroughly cleaned.  We would definitely use them again and certainly recommend them to others.

I had gone every where to look for a front entry door and storm door.  When I finally decided on the particular doors I wanted, ProVia Sinet  Entry door and Pro-Via Deluxe storm door,  I again when searching for the perfect company to purchase and install my doors.  When I got two estimates one double the price of the other, I decided to go directly to ProVia to ask for their dealer who installed most of their products and if they had a recommendation as to who I should use.  Without hesitation, they recommend Home Center.   I am so glad I listened to them.  Anna the sales representative was wonderful.  She was patient answering all my questions and concerns.  She knew all about the ProVia doors and was able to answer questions that the other dealers could not.   I purchased the doors July 18th and had them installed Aug 27th.  I love them!  And so does everyone who visits.    The two gentlemen who came and installed the doors were prompt and professional.  When I am ready to do the siding on my home, Wendal home Center will be my first phone call.

It went great! From start to finish. Met at the showroom where Doug explained everything to me. Their estimate was almost $600 less than another estimate I had received. He called to follow up which was really great. He came out to do measurements and was prompt and courteous. The installer was on time, polite and very efficient! He took away the old doors. They did warn me that sometimes new panels around the door have to be made and repainted, but that was not needed!! Would absolutely hire them again.

We was very happy with them. They did a really nice job and the crew was really good. The price wise they are probably about the same as anybody else. They were not high or low they were right in the middle. There was a lot of work to be done. The way the houses were constructed they make a very long there was like a foam board that they attached instead of doing plywood I think so it became like a bigger job than it probably needed to be but the houses in the particular area on the antel where we live it is just the way they were dealt and so they had some extra work that they had to do so there lot of nails and garbage afterwards. I mean I can't blame them entirely as roofers I am sure contributed to that but with coming up to the summer and it is like I ask them to come back since we bought and they did, but they are not going to the job that I did to try to get all the jump ups. These guys they were pros. I think we had the A team. They finished right before the snowstorm. We were very very pleased with the job that they did. They also made good suggestions in terms of how where to the down spouts. We are going to use them again when we do our porch, but I have to wait a year to do it.

Prompt and efficient.  They came when they said, and did what they said they would do.  They walked me through the whole job to explain what and how it will be done.  They were neat, and always cleaned up the area where they were working.  I would (and will) use them for any work I might have in the future.

I called them in May to get an estimate for a new awning, since my old one came down during one of the Snow Storms last February.  I dealt with Don Hoffman who was very nice and explained everything to me.   We agreed on they type I wanted and the price and later another gentleman came and measured.
On August 2, 2014, two workers came and installed the awning.  They were very professional and cleaned everything up when they left.  The awning I chose has an insulated roof and can be converted to a closed in porch in the future.

We had a sunroom installed by Wendel on 7/12/06. Installation went fine BUT now years later the whole roof leaks. Several years ago a repair man came out and caulked the area where the sunroom meets the house since at the time there was only a small leak which we were able pinpoint to this area. For the most part the issue was fixed but if we had a severe rain storm we still had leaks. This year the problem is back..not only is the original leak back but the seams of the insulated roof panels are leaking. It appears that the panels have separated a little bit. While both my husband and I understand that this could be a normal issue due to the age of the roof we reached out to Wendel to have repairs made to correct the leaking issues. My husband originally called and was advised that someone would call back. He never received a call back! He then called again last week and explained again what the issues are and was told that someone would be at our house this morning, They showed up but could not fix the problems since they did not have the appropriate materials with them. I cannot believe that they showed up without any materials when my husband specifically called twice and explained what the issues are. The serviceman spoke to my husband about two possible options for repairs but did not give him any quotes for the repair options. The serviceman also mentioned that we should have maintained the roof better. I explained to him that we never had a sunroom before and no one mentioned that the roof need regular maintence at the time of installation or during the consulation when we signed the contract on 4/3/06. He looked at me and said you check your windows on your house for leaks therefore you should check the sunroom. I have windows in my house for 15 years and never had to do any maintenance on them. If we were advised from the beginning that there this room required certain maintenance we certainly would have taken care of this on a regular basis. So now my husband once again has to call their office. In the meantime we are afraid that there maybe more rain before this issue is resolved and our furniture and flooring is going to get soaked again. Because of this we have put a tarp on our roof to protect our furniture and floor from any further water damage. We originally reached out to Wendel to ensure that the issues were corrected properly and we have gotten nowhere. We are very disappointed and I would not recommend Wendel to anyone based on the way they have handled this situation. At this time we still do not have a remedy for our situation and we do not no where to go for help

At this time a representative from Wendel has spoken with my husband and we have a date of October 4th for repair work to be done. Will update again after the repairs are completed


Repairs were done on October 21st and we have had several bad rain storms and no water!!

Response from Wendel Home Center Inc
"Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear your sunroom leak has been repaired. I would like to mention that our office had communicated with your husband at all times. When he initially called to report a leak he was told he would receive a phone call back within a certain time frame to schedule an appointment. Yes, he did call again, before that time frame. When our representative spoke to your husband to set an appointment he was informed a mechanic would be coming to your house to assess the leak & see what repairs would be needed. If it was a small repair the mechanic would have caulked, etc at that time. However, this was not the situation. Therefore, the office was able to set up another date to make the necessary repairs. We hope you continue to enjoy your sunroom & please feel free to contact us if we can provide any other services to you. Thank you, Wendel Home Center"

"Thank you for your feedback which is important to our company. I'm delighted you were pleased with Don's presentation at your home & felt confident in choosing the right patio cover for your needs. At the time of their estimate, our customers are given a time frame when their job will be installed. Actual installation dates are scheduled by the office closer to the installation date. Grading our company an F because you did not receive a phone call back from the person who handles the scheduling until 2 days later is a very harsh criticism. Overall,your job was installed in the time frame you were quoted & I'm glad you were pleased with the quality of your patio cover and your installation crew as well. We look forward to serving you again soon. Wendel Home Center"
