Get matched with top window shutter repair pros in Midland, VA

"Roofing repair & replacement, roof came out great!"

"Mr. Ryder performed the work himself ,and was able to save me some money by sugesting a better way to complete the repair."

"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

"Sunshine was amazing! Nate Sullivan and his crews were great to work with on our new roof and gutter installation as well as window replacement! Very professional, reasonably priced with quality work and products. Will use them for all future repair and renovations. Have referred them to many who have also been very satisfied as well!"

"Wilson and his crew are amazing! They fixed an armoire door (antique French, so no hinges) when no one else was able to do so, and restored its veneer and cleaned the glass on the doors which had 200 years of mineral deposits. Next, they reupholstered a barrel chair, doing a beautiful job; it looks better than when I first bought it. Wilson has over 40 years of restoration experience with the Catholic Church in Italy and Ecuador, and it shows. He is also very personable and diligent when informing his customers of their job status. I highly recommend d them."

"Michael was very knowledge and he explained to me what was wrong with the faucet. He was very patience with me when I was asking him several question. When I told him over the phone what was wrong, he knew exactly the problem. Now my faucet is working well."

"We are very pleased with the result, the success of which is attributable to the following:

1) Willingness to go beyond. For example,
-Robert was the only bidder to offer a color consultation, which proved to be invaluable in the end  (see below)
-I returned home one day to find Robert and crew fixing a drywall patch that had been applied years prior, even though it was out of the scope of our agreement; he told me he couldn't bring himself to just paint over it without properly fixing it first
2) Experience.  Before our color consultation, we had a general idea of the color scheme we wanted for the house.  Thanks to Robert's experience, we were able to avoid making some disastrous color choices given that we had no idea how much seemingly minor differences in color shading could affect the final product.  Without Robert's input, there is no telling what our house would look like today.  I should also note that we reviewed our final color choices with 3 different interior designers, who all agreed that we have 'impeccable taste.'  (A complement we shamelessly accepted even though Robert was the catalyst)
3) Straightforwardness. Robert acted with our best interest in mind.  For example, although we selected a particular name brand paint, he suggested we use a more cost-effective (yet equal quality) brand for certain ceilings that did not require a unique color, even though doing so would add to his workload as he now had to deal with 2 suppliers
4) Work Ethic. Robert was the only bidder who actually paints in addition to managing his business; managers of the competing bidders would not actually be onsite, which made us wary of quality control. 

Before Robert's involvement, we only thought of painting as a means to refresh the house.  In fact, our house has been transformed, and we have Robert and Competitive Painters to thank.

Some of the areas for improvement include:
1) Estimate of paint - Robert overestimated on the number of gallons of paint required for the job, costing us hundreds of dollars in wasted money.
2) Quality control - Although Robert was on-site daily, he did not perform high quality control as we had expected.  His own personal work is great; however, some of his crew made a lot of paint drips, missed spots, were not careful when taking off and putting back blinds and closet racks, spilled food, etc.
3) Attention to detail - When the drywall repair was done, they forgot to paint several spots leaving white spots on some walls."

"Needed a handyman quickly to fix a few things before putting my house on the market. He made time within my timeframe to schedule a visit and was able to complete my projects that same day. Would recommend this company (Francois) to others."

"Made an appt. with Castle Rep, James, for 17 windows and vinyl siding. He spent 1 hour talking about how great his company and windows are before finally getting down to the issue. We were told that CASTLE makes and services their own window, with all the best technology and technicians available. The price per window for energy efficient came out to over $1,200 per double-hung window! And since they make their own products, we could not find a way to compare quality and price with other manufacturers. But his per-window price exceeds the average price of $500-700 by A LOT! When we balked, he made a call to his "manager" to see if we qualified for a "special promotional" discount. If we were to commit right there on the spot, we would get an additional 10% off! Still way to high. We said we would think about it (he got sad and snippy), and that we wanted to hear about the vinyl siding quote before we made any decisions. He told us he could not give us a siding quote until his company did an "eagle view" measurement, which would require another appointment! We had no intention of sitting through ANOTHER high-pressure appointment. High pressure, long-drawn out presentation and he would not leave us with anything in writing! No brochures, prices, nothing! He refused to put anything in writing and we could not have a break down of labor and costs. I even asked him if I could have a copyhh of the window warranty and he said "only if you purchase right now." And they did not come prepared with references or previous job locations! When we further researched the company, we found they did make very excellent products, but the #1 complaint was by far that they did not honor their lifetime warranty and that customer service was horrible. In the end, we chose not to do business.."

"Art Woodstone Studio did a wonderful job and took great care of these chairs. They matched the re-finish to remaining pieces. The old chairs wiggled, and wobbled, and their veneer was cracked in places. Now, not anymore. The studio knew I had a time crunch and they worked to meet my needs. I would use them again in an instant!"
