Purchased my front entry door August of 23. Initially had some communication problems with Opal during the scheduling phase but then an employee named Katie stepped in and everything was perfect. Not only was she great with scheduling but also took control of the situation when we had some minor issues with the casing around the door. Katie followed up after the initial installment and after the repairs were done. The door looks great and the price was far better than the other door providers we spoke to. I appreciate a company that stands by their work as that is so hard to find these days. I would definitely use Opal again and recommend them as well. Special thanks to Katie!

New siding, portico, front door, Anderson windows

Opal just finished a very big project on my home. Overall I'm very happy with the project- the final product is beautiful. My project (3200sf home): Old stucco and siding torn off Wet/rotten plywood removed and replaced New exterior foam insulation and housewrap New Hardie Board siding New windows - all windows replaced with Anderson 400 series New trim around windows New gutters, downspouts, and leaf guards New soffits/fascia New ProVia front door New portico over the front entry Cost- over $100,000 My initial visit was with Jason who was awesome. He arrived on time and was knowledgeable and courteous. He presented me with a proposal and design for the home exterior which was great. It was definitely more expensive than I had budgeted for, but Hardie Board is pricey as are Anderson Windows (and apparently Provia front doors). I had several custom sized windows which added to the cost. I am sure I paid a premium for the quality of the work done, but as I state below, the crew was amazing. There was an initial miscommunication about the starting date. We thought the crew was starting beginning of June but they didn't start until the following week. After that, the crew arrived on time and was extremely courteous. They had their own porta-potty so they didn't need to come inside. They were quiet and courteous to the neighbors. The owner of Opal even brought my neighbors Starbucks gift cards to apologize for the mess (and the dumpster in my driveway). The work took several weeks to complete, but it was big job and the crew worked hard, often 9+ hours per day. If they encountered any issues they brought it to my attention right away. The crew leader, Miro, clearly prides himself in his work and does a great job. He and his guys were the best. A few days after the project was complete, I had an issue with one of my windows. I emailed Jason and within literally ten minutes, Miro was at my house (it was 7pm. I thought that was amazing.) My only complaint is the amount of damage to my landscaping and front porch that I wasn't expecting. The guys had to put some pallets on my front lawn, so there's a lot of dead grass. They had to walk in the bushes/plants to install the siding and windows, so those are all damaged. The paver bricks of my front porch couldn't withstand all the weight of the equipment either, so those are all loose. I understand that the damage is just a consequence of three weeks of guys and equipment, but I definitely wasn't budgeting for a lansdacping project in addition to the siding. Overall I was very impressed with Opal and especially with Jason and Miro. If you're looking for the cheapest work, this is not it. If you're looking for really well done work with the highest quality materials, go with Opal.

The alcohol that Opal employees took out of my fridge, drank and hid.

The installation crew was drinking beer on the job!! My husband and I got several quotes for replacing all of the windows in our home. Opal was one of the higher priced companies but seemed to have what we were looking for- good reputation, quality product, financing options and very attentive customer service. Once the delivery date came there was an issue and we weren't given 24 hours to make arrangements to be home before our delivery date was given to someone else. From this time everything seemed to become difficult with the company. We had to wait another month for delivery. During the installation the crew cut many corners on caulking, installed screens with holes in them, and tried to convince me that the work they did looked just like it did before if not better. I had to pull up pictures on my phone of what the home looked like previously and was put in a position to argue with the installation crew. I had to follow the crew around the house and ask them to make corrections as they were working. There was a sliding glass door that would not close unless you put a tremendous amount of force on it. The crew was not going to tell me there was a problem and when I brought it up one of the crew members tried to tell me it was fine and just needed time. I suspected they were drinking when I saw mysterious cans in the recylce bin outside but was too busy to say anything without being sure. The crew crammed a three day project into two very long days, they had to come back several times after that to bring materials and make repairs. Opal continued to try to process the full payment when the job was not done. I refused to sign the job completion form. I had to constantly tell the bank to not process the payments, I was texting and trying to coordinate the repairs needed to be made, and in more than one case the crew came to the home, took a look around and left. It took over two months for the job to be done and during that time I actually found a beer can shoved in a drawer in my bedroom. Nobody in my house drinks beer. I spoke with someone several times about this and they threw a gift card at me for taking the time to call them. They assured me the warranty will be fine and that they fired the crew. (After reading more reviews on the company this seems to be a common thing said to people.) I set up a time for someone else to call me because I was still concerned about the installation, upset about the crew drinking, and overall did not get the quality I had expected. That was a few weeks ago and no one has called me. I am a teacher and during the day it can be hard to take a call but I was texting with the company and did everything I could to voice my concerns. The windows are done and look good now, but because we are questioning the installation we are very worried that we may have problems in the future. We most certainly did not get what we expected or what we paid for and so far the company doesn't seem to care about it. Install should have been May 2023, actually started in June 2023, ended in August 2023, and the last conversation I had where I was told I would be called back was on 9/13/2023.

Not happy with this company. Had 3 windows and one patio door replaced at my condo. Because of an issue with the trim, they wanted to stop the work until I paid them $30 to replace the damaged trim. That is completely unacceptable to leave a customer's home uninhabitable and exposed to the elements for a $30 cost and for the record it cost me $7400 to replace those 4 items. And the constant harassment to leave a review and refer others to friends. Read the fine print when signing a contract with this company, you will be signed up to receive countless calls and junk mail to advertise for them. I would not recommend this company again. Again this is not a cheap project or replacing multiple pieces of damaged trim, this is completely stopping construction until the customer forks over extra money. Also see the photo for the response from the owner. I would never do business with this shop ever again.

Gnats over the window because there is no seal between the sliding glass.

Let's just say I had to hire someone after Opal was done to fix the issues left behind that they refused to resolve.

The old backdoor was, kind of, a joke, because it didn't really close and cold wind could come in…read moreeasily and one could clearly see that was extremely outdated. I contacted "American Thermal Window Products" and wanted to get this house project rolling before 2022 came. Unfortunately, due to labor and material shortages, I was informed the door installation would be at least a three-month wait. Hey, that wasn't the company's fault and I always received a good service and prompt responses from the office. Nick was assigned to get in touch with me for an estimate. Nick and everyone else in the office were very friendly. Nick explained everything about the estimate (free in-person estimate) and answered any questions we had. He emphasized that everyone involving with the installation process worked for the company. With that being said, there would be no third party contractors hired off the street! I understood the virtue of using the company employees. I have been part of the gig economy for some times. I wouldn't say the contractors wouldn't do a job, yet there could be a lack of accountability on their part of work certainly. In late February 2022, I received a voicemail from Linda and immediately called the office. She scheduled the installation date for me and provided an arrival window. The crew came in prepared within the window and was ready to work! The installation was rather quick. The cleaning was thorough. Everything was painless. The crew leader told us that adjustment could be made if there was a need. That door...let me tell ya...was a godsent. It helped conserve the heat. It did have an energy-star icon, for those who are into the energy-efficient appliances. It is also esthetically pleasing. Overall, I'm very satisfied. I'm going to inspect the windows for the rest of the house and to see if I can get "American Thermal Window Products" involved again.

Ordered new entry way doors from them because we had ordered metal screen doors from them years…read moreago, and we were pleased. The whole experience has been a nightmare. We ordered new doors for our house including a new front door. Following installation, the front door was snapping and popping when the sun hit it, and started to fade and paint was flecking off. We called to have it replaced because it was under warranty. They replaced it with a door that looked worse. You could see the unpainted inside window trim thru the windows. We went back and forth, requesting our money back, but we were not able to make any progress other than they would order a new door for us. This took months, many phone calls with service and general manager. Finally they said they had 2 doors for us, and that we could pick. It's not lost on us that if we picked between the 2 doors, that then they could come back to us and say, "you picked it". One of the doors had sand inside the windows-clumps of sand. The other one looked better, but it was obvious that it was the first door that we had returned, just painted. We were done! This company has gone down hill since we ordered from them back in 2020. Avoid them at all costs. They are sneaky and don't have good customer service. Nor do they have effective management.
