"I forgot the guy’s name that came to look at the job. He was nice and quick to estimate and explain and not into ‘selling’ services like 2 other companies did. Ordered the slider I wanted and installed it when it came in . I had decided to use a company that specializes in door and window installation instead of the previously used 2 big box garden/supply chains in the area. Very happy with the quality of the slider and the professional installation!"
"Highly recommended! Onsite replaced our screen door and rescreened the porch using the No-See-Um mesh. The quality of workmanship is top-notch. The screen door operates perfectly opening and closing smoothly. The team was professional, punctual, and respectful of our property from start to finish. They worked efficiently and left the area spotless."
"Juan from GS CUSTOM REMODELERS LLC did a fantastic job. He communicated well about his availability/timing; he arrived when he said he would, he did the work quickly, and his fee was more than fair--even generous, I would say. He didn't consider the problem, which bedeviled us, too small to deal with. We were impressed, and we will ask him to do more work for us."
"Installers arrived on time and were professional and courteous. The quality of the windows and door exceeded our expectations. After all work was complete installers took care in cleaning up. They did an excellent job"
"I have used HGE for 2 major projects now (roof and windows) and they provide excellent customer service and great communication with customers. The roof job only took 2 days and the 15 windows replaced took less than one day. Very fast and professional work from Trey, Judd, and team."
"Highly recommend! He was punctual, professional, and paid attention to detail. The work was done efficiently and everything turned out exactly how I wanted. Pricing was fair and transparent, and he made sure everything was cleaned up before leaving. It’s hard to find reliable handyman services, but this one exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be using him again for future projects!"
"Wonderfully from talking to representative, ordering windows and window installment. Windows were installed in one day by a very knowledgeable installer. Hard worker, conscience, courteous and friendly. We would recommend this company to all of our friends."
"the contractor was on time, very polite, very professional, had all the tools required for the job, and when he finished, cleaned up after his work. I would totally recommend him for his excellent work."
Most solar screens last 10 to 15 years, depending on the material quality, exposure to weather, and the level of maintenance. High-quality materials and regular cleaning can extend their lifespan, while harsh climates or neglect may shorten it. Routine cleaning, inspecting for damage, and avoiding harsh cleaners can help extend the lifespan of your screens.
Tears, holes, or difficulty in opening and closing suggest a need for repair.
Installing a basement window generally takes a few hours, assuming there are no structural issues you need to resolve first. If you’re a novice DIYer, the project could take longer; on the flip side, a licensed and trained window contractor may be able to replace multiple basement windows in the time it takes a homeowner to replace one.
There are a number of ways to secure windows. You can add motion detectors or window sensors to detect movement and impact or change the window locks to make them stronger. Some of the ways you can secure windows are much like how you secure a home: closing the curtains at night and setting up security cameras outside so you can monitor your property even in your absence.
Yes, you can fix windows without replacing them. However, this will depend on the severity of the issue and what your needs are. Minor water damage, broken glass, damaged casing, and worn caulking are usually easy repairs. But if there is excessive damage, the windows are constantly foggy, or the windows are very old, it’s best to consider replacing them. Replacement windows cost between $575 and $1,475 per window, or an average of $850 per window.
