"Excellent service, very fast response to my request for service, picked up laptop, diagnosed issues. Initially thought it was an OS update issue but the hard drive had failed along with other components (including 'CPU). Because other components were involved, a new solid state hard drive was put into a laptop with a working processor - same type CPU as in the failed unit. The laptop was repaired and returned in less than a week. This company picked up and dropped off the laptop (driving from Huntsville, AL (about 60-70 minutes)-- great service in this covid environment. I would recommend this company to my family./friends and will use again."

"Solar screens came out and gave a very reasonable price and custom measured each window. Once our shades were in, they came back and installed them very quickly. Now our great room is much cooler. I would definitely recommend them."

"I had a cabinet door with broken hinges and several others with loose hinges.  Oscar replaced the broken hinges and exchanged the loose hinges.  I also had a section of caulk in a shower panel that needed to be removed and replaced.  He did not have the actual white caulk that I had expected him to have (I had called to verify he would have bathroom/waterproof caulk but did not specify the color because I thought the caulk only came in white and he would know what I need).  He did have clear caulk or maybe it was a glue.  I do not remember that detail at this moment but I do remember he said it would last longer than the caulk that he removed.  I also had a ceiling fan light that was not working that I wanted him to fix.  I had read in the owner's manual that flashing light bulbs means the electrical wiring needs repairs.  I had also asked if this repair could be done when I was scheduling the appointment and was told yes.  Oscar could not fix it and said a part, I think it was the transmitter or something like that, needed to be replaced.  I had him remove the ceiling fan and reinstall the original light fixture (I needed light in the room).  I rated punctuality with a B because he was a little late.

Oscar was more than willing to do the work I requested and he had a very good attitude.  I was a little disappointed that he could not fix the ceiling fan and that he did not have the white caulk/glue.  But, at the same time, it was a very good price for the amount of work done and he was very polite and cooperative. "

Screen Repair questions, answered by experts

Many kinds of window screens, such as solar screens, are designed to reduce the amount of harmful ultraviolet rays that pass through them and enter your home. The materials typically have UV-blocking properties. However, they may not completely eliminate all UV rays from passing through your home. Different window screens are designed for different purposes, and not all are designed to block or reduce UV rays. Do your research to make sure you’re getting the type of window screen to suit your needs.

If your door has interchangeable inserts, you’ll likely want to swap the glass out for a screen during the summer months. The process to do so will vary by door, but you’ll follow these general steps: First, use a flathead screwdriver to pop out the retainer strips—the plastic strips running down both long (and sometimes all four) sides of the door. Then gently pull them out by hand. Carefully remove the glass insert from the door and replace it with the screen. Finally, push the plastic retainer strips back into place, working from top to bottom.

Window screens are available in several standard sizes. Common dimensions include 24 to 36 inches wide by 36 to 48 inches tall, as well as sizes like 18 by 14 inches and 20 by 20 inches. These often correspond to standard window sizes, such as 2 feet wide by 3 feet tall or 4 feet wide by 6 feet tall. Screens are also sold in replacement rolls to accommodate various dimensions. It is always best to measure your windows for accuracy before a repair or replacement. If your windows are a non-standard size, you will likely need to order custom screens, which can increase the cost. However, a screen does not necessarily have to fit the entire window, so you may be able to use a standard-size screen even if your window is slightly larger.

The screen on many screen doors is held in place by screen spline. Screen spline is typically a thin vinyl tubing that fits into the groove of the door’s frame and holds the screen in place. To install the spline on a screen door, you’ll need a spline roller—a tool that presses the spline and screen into the door’s narrow groove. Note that old spline can crack and break, so replacing your screens is a good time to replace the spline, too.

If you’re not an experienced DIYer, consider hiring a local patio repair contractor to rescreen your porch or sunroom. Unless you’re only repairing a small rip or hole, this project is not an easy job. A professional can also make recommendations for materials that will work best for your porch.
