"Ean was responsive and receptive to all our requests throughout the entire shower remodel process. His work is excellent and pricing was very reasonable for the shower door install. We plan on using Ean again for a possible outdoor grill redo."

"Lazer Construction did an amazing job fixing our roof. They were very timely, paid great attention to detail and all for a great price. I would highly recommend them!"
"Northwest Home Repair responded immediately when contacted about a water leak that I couldn't locate, but could hear. Two technicians worked to finally locate the leak (unfortunately it was in the crawl space under my house) and a third plumber made the repair. I was informed up front of all costs. The repair was completed within 5-6 hours of my call even though the responding plumbers were almost 60 miles from my location on Whidbey Island. I HIGHLY recommend Northwest Home Repair Solutions...they are five star professionals! Kit McCartney"
"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."
Doors are made from a variety of materials, including fiberglass, wood, and steel. Fiberglass is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a durable, long-lasting, and energy-efficient option that comes in various colors, although it’s not eco-friendly. Steel provides durability and maximum security but is not eco-friendly or energy-efficient. Wood is an energy-efficient, eco-friendly door solution, but you’ll spend more.
The average fiberglass door that you purchase from your local door company or home improvement store will last around 20 to 40 years, so fiberglass doors are considered durable compared to other door materials. When properly maintained, it's not unheard of for a fiberglass door to last up to 80 years.
Professionals guarantee a secure fit, weatherproofing, and enhanced curb appeal.
The best material depends on what’s more important to you: Cost? Durability? Looks? Steel cellar doors are tough, water-resistant, and heavy, while fiberglass or composite doors can give you the outdoor aesthetics you crave. Most people favor steel because of its strength against storms, but steel is also one of the more costly options.
You can use any wood to make an interior door, provided it’s the right thickness. Common options for painted doors include pine or poplar for the stiles, rails, and mullions, and paint-grade plywood for the panels. You can also opt to make your own panels out of pine or poplar if you intend on staining the door instead. Opting for oak, maple, or another hardwood is another great option for a high-end door that will last for decades, but the wood will cost significantly more.
