"Chuck M. came to our home and sole use the windows. Everything happened as he told us it would. From the installers contacting us to coming out and doing the measurements for the windows. Even the Financing. ended up with a slightly higher interest rate but was warned it could happen. They worked with us on the down payment, and the installers from Alside went above and beyond for us. I am so glad DaBella is who we went with. Everyone in my house loves the new fog window in our bathroom."
"Bill provided a clear and reasonable quote on the job when the windows arrived Kenny and Kelton on did a fine job on the installation, trim replacement and cleanup. Very happy with this job and will certainly use them again for phase 2."
"Everyone at Elevated was super friendly and professional! The owner, Ian, was a part of the process from start to finish which put me at ease. Super happy with the work they did and love my new windows!"
"Jim with North Alabama Technical Services removed some items from my computer so that I could send emails and attend to items I needed to address that day. As planned, the next day he thoroughly cleaned my computer, he also made helpful suggestions while working on my computer. I would call him again if needed and I thought the fee was reasonable."
"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."
"I love my new door! It took us a few weeks to get in synch to get the door measured and ordered, but once the scheduler was back from vacation, everything went without a hitch. The installers were professional and fast! They cleaned up completely before they left. And because I was able to be flexible, they called me when they had a cancellation, so my door was installed at least a week sooner than I expected. I am very happy with their service and price."
Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts
The screen material you choose depends on your needs. Here are some differences to consider:
Fiberglass is the least expensive but needs replacing more often.
Aluminum suits almost any job and doesn’t stretch as easily as fiberglass.
Pet-resistant screens are more expensive than fiberglass or aluminum, but they’re also wind and weather-resistant.
Metal screens, like stainless steel, are the most expensive material for rescreening your porch or sunroom. However, they last for years and are golf ball-resistant.
While sometimes used interchangeably, screen doors and storm doors have key differences. Screen doors are simple structures, typically composed of just a frame and a screen, designed to keep out bugs while allowing air circulation. In contrast, storm doors are heavier and more complex, built to protect your home's main entry door from weather and intruders. They usually feature an aluminum frame with interchangeable tempered glass and screen panels, allowing you to switch between ventilation and insulation. A storm door offers more protection and versatility but generally costs more than a basic screen door.
Drafts, condensation between panes, difficulty operating, or visible frames or glass damage are signs of needed repairs.
The steps to replace a retractable screen can vary, but these are the general steps: First, remove the screen cover to expose the screen mechanism and remove the clip that holds the screen in place. Next, depress the end of the screen mechanism so it releases from the door frame. Take your new screen and fit one end into the frame. You may need to rotate the mechanism to engage the spring before inserting the other end into the frame. Finally, pull the screen down the length of the door’s opening and lock it in place with the clip.
Yes, if you have ventilated skylights, you can install insect screens on them. Insect screens for skylights cost $10 to $50 each, depending on their size and quality. Most pros highly recommend insect screens for ventilated skylights because they keep pests outside of your home while allowing fresh air inside.
