"I highly recommend Clifton Contracting. The owner and all his employees are great to work with and did an excellent job installing my egress window. They even worked with me to take care of some other home to-do's on the fly. I would happily use them again."
"Tony and Sons were responsive start to finish. Danny was awesome and spared no effort to make sure I was entirely happy with the end product. He’s the only contractor I’ve brought in who was able to adjust my front door to my satisfaction."
"We have had NovaExteriors replace all our gutters, windows, sliding doors and front door over the last several years from the contractor grade products that the town house was built with. We have been very pleased with everything. They installed our steel front door about 10 years ago and we started to have issues with the deadbolt not aligning with the door jam and the rubber sweep wearing out over time. I contacted NovaExteriors, made my appointment and they arrived right on time and performed the needed maintenance that was required. The door is back to being perfect. Once again, we were very pleased with NovaExteriors, their prompt arrival and the quality of work. You can't go wrong with NovaExteriors."
"The Glass Smith installed windows in my upstairs master bathroom and main level laundry room. They provided excellent, professional, and honest service. Devin, Head Manager, was engaging, friendly, and efficient. He provided exceptional customer relationship management. Jermaine Science, Master Technician, is truly a master in his craft. He was thorough and yet efficient. He also caulked several windows and corrected flaws of a previous window installation company. Without any reservations, I recommend Jermaine for any window project."
"REO ServicePro was great! Gary was friendly, responsive and helpful. He provided clear, descriptive quotes for various door options, and helped us to understand the real differences and implications between the options. He was understanding when we decided to purchase the materials ourselves (we wanted to use some gift cards/credit with a big box store). Michael performed the work, and was on time, friendly and efficient. He helped unload material (even though they did not source it), and did quality work. We are very happy with the work that REO ServicePro did, and with all our interactions with them. Good company!"
"Everything went AMAZINGLY WELL....FAST response on the submission. Within minutes they called me. They came out the same night to analyze my door and give me a quote. They scheduled the install for as soon as possible. The door and door frame were replaced and everything looks brand new. They are very friendly and professional. DEFINITELY HIRE THEM. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I will be calling them from now on when I need anything repaired....."

Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts
Screen repair is always worthwhile, as tears and holes in your windows and door screens are unsightly and allow pests and debris into your home, rendering the screen useless. The faster you repair your screens, the faster you can open your windows and doors freely to let the fresh air in. Consider repairing multiple door and window screens during one appointment with a screen repair technician to make the investment and labor costs worth it.
A vacuum with a hose attachment or a lint roller can easily remove dust from your window screen. Pressure washing window screens is another option, but you should make sure you have the appropriate nozzle and pressure setting to avoid doing extensive damage to your window.
The best type of window screen for your home depends on your region and your family’s needs. While fiberglass window screens are a popular, affordable, and easy-to-find choice, you may be looking for different benefits, such as a more high-end look, increased strength, or extended durability. The best window screen meets the demands of your home and its residents while staying within your budget.
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.
The screen material you choose depends on your needs. Here are some differences to consider:
Fiberglass is the least expensive but needs replacing more often.
Aluminum suits almost any job and doesn’t stretch as easily as fiberglass.
Pet-resistant screens are more expensive than fiberglass or aluminum, but they’re also wind and weather-resistant.
Metal screens, like stainless steel, are the most expensive material for rescreening your porch or sunroom. However, they last for years and are golf ball-resistant.
