Get matched with top window shutter repair pros in Ector, TX

Hi, I’m Michael, a hands-on problem solver with experience in everything from carpentry and home repairs to tech troubleshooting and custom DIY projects. I’ve led the construction of my own home as a Texas general contractor, and I enjoy helping people fix problems the right way without overcomplicating things. Whether it’s installing, repairing, building, or figuring out frustrating computer issues, I focus on honest communication, quality work, and treating your home like it’s my own.

Recently relocated to Grayson County. We've been serving Texas and other states for 13 years in building ground up commercial buildings, additions, and renovations. We specialize in structural steel fabrication and erection, custom steel fabrication, gates and entryways. We were designing and building Barndominiums before people knew what they were. We do the job right or not at all. We guarantee our work, and we often takeover failing or abandoned projects and get the project completed. We've built and have tore down and rebuilt many very large churches. We've done a lot of historical renovations and dealt woth the historical regulations, etc. We've done a lot of work at The Grandscape in The Colony Tx. We worked on The Dallas Morning News, The Statler Hotel as well as many other hotels, high end retail and entertainment districts. \n We have worked and a General contractor holding responsibility for a project from conception to planning and development, through completion.

I would like to introduce myself as Leonel Gonzalez, with 7 years of experience in the construction industry. I’ve worked in remodeling of courthouses in Texas which consisted of carpentry such as installing baseboards, cabinets, window trims, custom doors and other furniture. Therefore I also have experience in paint and stain jobs. \nConsidering my self a responsible, honest, and respectful person towards others everything I do is to provide for my family.

"The shutters we ordered, were made overseas.  When the shutters came in, we were in the middle of a remodel of our house.
The owner was very understanding, and kept the shutters until we had completed the painting, of the inside of our house.
These shutters were installed without marring any of the new paint.  The installers were very professional, and left the house in the same shape as when they arrived.  We are very happy with the results.

"We've used this company 2x at least in the past. Still providing good screens at competitive pricing."

"Went really well. We used A Better Shutter for about 25 jobs now. It has gone smoothly and the have done very well."

"I'm very tough to please, and Charles and Larry Means and their crew couldn't have made me happier. They began with a thorough and professional estimate and then scheduled the job as soon as I gave them the go-ahead. While working, they arrived on schedule each morning, took great care of my home and went above and beyond the agreed job scope by noticing (and fixing) lots of issues that we'd never discussed beforehand. They left my home clean at the end of each day and, throughout the day, walked me around to make sure I was satisfied and that I understood their approach.
It makes a big difference to have experienced company owners on site (and working!) the entire time. These guys know their business and are committed to doing things the right way. I've been doing a major house renovation for several months and have had a lot of hiccups along the way. Means Painting renewed my faith that there are quality vendors out there who take pride in their work and also price their services fairly.  They'll be my first call next time I need painting help, and I'm excited to recommend them to my friends.

"He stands by his word, if no repairs to be done - its no cost.  He took the piece found on the roof, which he can use in the future.
Turns out that the previous company just left a boot and the storm moved it to an area we could see it.

" Original Review
I had roof damage from the hail storm that moved through the McKinney area in March of 2017. I contacted Braden from Acclaim (he had previously been by my house & did a roof inspection & wanted to repair the roof at that time but I hadn't owned it when I'm guessing another storm had been through) and setup an inspection. So far, so good. Braden was out to inspect within a day or two & we worked with my insurance adjuster to get that part done. When my insurance came to inspect they noticed screen damage on all of my windows so that was written in as well. I bring this up to say that the sub-contractor they used to have this work done was extremely professional and took great pride in his work. Sorry for the digression: back to the roof repair review. Boiled down, during the roof replacement a small section of decking was damaged (see attached pictures). I sent the pictures to my insurance company & Acclaim also contacted them to ask for additional money to repair the damaged decking but my insurance company noted that the damage wad not part of the storm damage that it was caused by the contractor's that were working on my roof. So I'm putting this review out here to show the damaged decking (see attached pictures) & hopefully I can come back and edit my review to show that Acclaim fixed the damage caused by the repair. To date I've been unhappy with how this has been handled - Acclaim says that the builder used "cheap material" to put the roof on originally & that that is the cause. However, it is only damaged in the areas I've shown & if the decking was in such bad shape why wasn't this mentioned on the original inspection of the roof. In any case, I'll follow up here and list the final resolution with pictures and more details.

Acclaim (Lloyd & Whitney) got back with me and they arranged to replace the decking that was damaged and make my roof look (internally & externally) awesome. I appreciate them for taking ownership of the issue because in their view it was something that my insurance company should have paid for. They came out, pulled the old damaged decking out and put in new decking and shingles. Everything looks as it should."
