"I wasn't really satisfied with the work and the cut was not done properly. I would never use this company again. The guy was great, but the work was not."
"This company has excellent windows, doors, and service. The installers did a fantastic job with installation and clean up. I would highly recommend this company to anyone!"
"They were cost effective, compared to other companies. Their work was on time and professionally done. The look of the window compared favorably with my original wood windows. I am happy with my decision and with their work."
"The job was done not only at a reasonable price but the finished results were beyond my expectations. I couldn’t be happier with work done by Aaronson Repairs & Improvements and will certainly not hesitate to use them again when needed."
Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts
Professionals clean window screens the same way a homeowner can—by removing the screens and cleaning them with a sponge. A window cleaning pro may come with better equipment, like a high powered wet/dry vacuum or pressure washer to speed up the process and achieve a deeper clean.
Awning windows can have screens, but it depends on your manufacturer. If your awning window does have a screen, it will be on the interior side so it doesn’t get in the way when you crank the window open. Having the screen on the inner part of the window also makes it easier to clean from inside your home.
No, it’s not safe to leave a doggy door open. It might be more convenient, especially at night when you just want to lay in bed. However, when you leave it open, it increases the chance of other critters getting in without your knowledge. Also, it leaves your pup unsupervised for hours at a time.
Typically every 10-15 years or whenever they show signs of wear and tear.
If you’re not keen on using a traditional doggie door, there are some alternatives. One popular option is a solid, insulated door that you can lock when you’re out of the home for added security. You can also opt for a doggie screen, which you can lift and lower to allow your pooch access to the outdoors. These are a bit more convenient to use than a regular exterior door, although security could be an issue. You can also install a screen door with a small opening for your pup to prevent bugs from coming inside as your dog exits.
