    You'd think that if a company got an order wrong on the first try that they would take particular pains to get it right on the second. Sadly, that wasn't my experience at Dan White's. When I took one of my window screens down for annual window cleaning, it was clear that it needed to be replaced. Dan White's had done well on a similar job for me a few years back, so I took the old screen in to them. The people there seemed to be in a hurry, but they said that they were familiar with the screen's style and were confident that they could make a replacement. Their quote was on the high end of reasonable, but since their shop was a short drive from my home, I accepted it. A couple of days later when I went in to pick up the new screen, I noticed that they had neglected to cut the 2 slots in the frame that accommodate the clips that hold the screen in place. Without the slots, there is no easy way to secure the screen, and it can fall out when the window is opened. When I explained this to the person behind the counter, I could tell that she was dubious, but eventually she was able to find my old screen and saw what I needed. She was very apologetic and assured me that it would be ready the next day. When I went in the next day, I found that the slots had indeed been cut in my new screen. However, upon comparing the positioning of the slots to that on the old screen, it was clear that they were cut in slightly different positions than they were on old screen (see accompanying picture). Since these slots have to align with the corresponding slots in the window frame, there really isn't much leeway in where they are cut. When I pointed this out to the woman behind the counter, she explained that it isn't easy to cut the slots in just the right places. (Arguably, misplaced slots are just as useless as no slots at all, but I kept this observation to myself.) When I installed the screen, neither slot was close enough that the clip would go in, but I wasn't about to return to the shop for a third try. I managed to wedge it in tightly enough that it stays in place, however inelegantly. I would like to point out that I have had a similar screen fabricated at a competing local screen company in the past, and they had no trouble noticing the slots and getting them cut them in precisely the correct locations on the first try. Everybody makes mistakes. I understand that. However, making basically the same mistake twice suggests either apathy or carelessness. The folks at Dan White's seemed nice enough if somewhat hurried, so I'll go with the latter assessment. Either way, they certainly would not be my first choice for future screen replacement needs.

    Big shutout to Doug and his team. They did an INCREDIBLE job installing screens on my patio. Everything was done in one morning and they left everything clean and neat. They even came back a few weeks later to adjust the custom door. To be fair, I was afraid the screens would darken my living room, but they are barely noticeable. They look BEAUTIFUL and the quality is impeccable. Add outdoor flooring, a nice sofa and a couple ceiling fans and BANG you got yourself a killing patio. Couldn't be happier with this decision. No more bugs! *Job was done in January 2020*

    We used Dan White Screens and Things to install a screen enclosure a couple of years back. They did a great job then and were responsive and fast. Fast forward to today, our dog scratched on the the screens looking for bunnies outside and we had a large rip on one screen. The strong winds also loosened a small section of another screen. Reached out to Doug White, who was able to help us get our screens fixed quickly and at a reasonable price. Not only did they get both screens fixed quickly, they also noticed out door wasn't closing easily - we didn't even ask for it but they fixed it for us and it closes super smooth again now. Highly recommend them!!

    I had a great experience with Front Door Company. I was given plenty of options and guidance when…read moreI needed it. I found the person that came to measure very knowledgeable. The installer was equally as competent. I upgraded builder grade hollow doors for solid core in some of the areas of my new home. I'm overall very happy with the product and the service. The only negative was the price. I felt they were overpriced across the board. If I had more time before moving in, I would have searched a little deeper for more reasonable prices. No regrets, though!

    Ok, let me start with the name of the company, Front Door! Well I needed a back door. I called the…read morecompany talked with Francisco.he was great and listened to what I wanted and needed. He helped emailed me a couple doors and things that I would need or want done. Golly he was spot on. Then Lance came out to measure and checked out what would be needed,,,,,,,,this was the original door over 50 years old, so things were old, weather worn, but lance said oh it's not that bad. After lance measured and turned in the paper work, door ordered and about 4 weeks later David showed up exactly at 9:00am. He was oh so efficient, he really knew what he was doing , was meticulous, a perfectionist, knew his job and went right to it. He even installed the lock and key pad I got and explained it all to me. He really .......like the say crossed his "T's" and dotted his "i's". The front Door Company is great because of the people working there. Oh as far as the cost goes it was within my ball park. I was very surprised and pleased. Thanks for listening.

    I cannot say enough good things about Gary and the work he does!…read more From the very beginning of a substantial remodel to our house, he was prompt, professional and did a great job. He was able to start right away and had a bid for me very quickly for a lot of different projects. He removed one wall entirely for me, shortened another wall, widened a doorway to 7 feet, set 4 cabinets to make an island, repaired the sheet rock in my ceiling and leveled the floor in our converted garage. I basically have an entirely new house because of Gary's amazing work! His bid was very fair and better than any of the larger construction companies that I spoke with. He was also able to start quickly and finished my project in 2 weeks. The work is gorgeous and I could not be any more proud of our house. He is very honest and will help you figure out the best way to make your ideas work within your budget and the quality of his work is unquestionable. Gary was great to deal with and very respectful of our furniture and the rest of the house that was not being remodeled. He and his crew were very helpful, knowledgeable and wonderful to work with. I would hire them for any future projects without a second thought. In the middle of our remodel our entire house flooded and Gary came back after they were through for the day and helped us get things off the floor, etc. He brought additional help the next day and spent the day cleaning the disaster that the flood had made of our house. Because of Gary and his crew, our entire project ended within the scheduled time and the flood did not set things back more than a day. He also saved us from a substantial amount of water damage and other issues. I truly cannot stress enough the quality of work Gary does, he completely transformed my house for a price I was able to afford and did so in a timely and efficient manner. He was completely willing to help with issues that came up and his attention to detail is amazing. If you are remodeling this is definitely the guy to hire!

    I didn't know Gary Ferber of Ferber Construction when I asked him for a bid on a bathroom…read moreremodeling. I'm glad I found him when I did. The job was going to involve both plumbing and carpentry, and Gary made it clear that he and his crew could do it all, and they did. I am very pleased with not only their excellent work, but they are good people to invite into your home to perform their professional work. Gary has a unique ability of aesthetics - I had a simple idea, but he made me see that it would look better if he could do a slight variation of my initial concept. I feel that I have a new bathroom! I have invited Gary back to do another job, this time it involves masonry in my backyard, and again Gary made me see that my idea would be better if he could tweak it. And so Gary has tweaked it, and it indeed looks better. You won't go wrong getting Gary to do your work. Plus he and his crew are nice and respectful.
