    I reached out to Julian via Yelp to have my mom's door refinished. Julian was very patient in communicating. There were a few times my schedule was a conflict, but we finally set a date. Friday, I received a text from David. He communicated with me that he was running a bit late and what his ETA would be. I appreciated the text message as I was coming from my own home and had to head over to my mother's house. David & Andrew arrived promptly as stated the time. David went through the process with me and asked me to choose the color stain (he also helped). He stated how long it was going to take them. The whole process was a smooth transaction. Andrew assisted David and helped him take the door down and cover the front door with plastic. I notice how closely they worked together and how very commutative they were to each other. They were the true meaning teamwork makes the dream work! I was very pleased with their work, but most importantly my mother was extremely excited about her brand-new refinished door! I highly recommend Sturdy Doors to anyone. If you are able to request certain employees, please request David & Andrew. Soft spoken, efficient work, and commutative. I will be using them in the future and recommend them if any asks. I cannot thank you enough, Julian, David & Andrew!

    After 17 years, our solid wooden door was worn and the finish was dull. The hardware was tarnished and barely working. We called Sturdy Doors on Monday and were scheduled for mid-day Friday. It was a few minutes before appoinment time when Will phoned to tell me he was on his way. He and assistant Jesse introduced themselves and promptly set to work. Within three hours, the Sturdy Doors two-man crew transformed the portal of our home from worn to welcoming. I woul recommend Sturdy Doors to anyone seeking to refurbish their doors.

    Outside Doors Before

    DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!!. I took the bait in a mailer and scheduled them to refinish my double entry way doors. Pictures were sent and instructions given to match the inside of the doors and finish with a high gloss appearance. They took the job without mentioning that they did not think they could accurately match the color on the inside of the door. Additionally, they did not give my wife the opportunity to pick which color she thought was best (as indicated on their website) but was only asked if the color the technician chose would work. What was she supposed to say? In the end, the technician rushed the job to complete all sanding prep, staining, and final weather protection on 2 doors in 2.5 hours. This is not possible. Needed 100 grit, 150 grit, then 220 grit to prep. Then each coat of stain/urethane should have taken an hour each to dry but somehow this guy got it all done in 2.5 hours. In the end, my doors are ruined orange, the beautiful wood character is muted like it was painted and I either have to redo/fix it myself or find another vendor. During a lengthy discussion with them about the matter, at not time have they apologized that we are unhappy nor have they suggested any options for fixing it. This is 100% unacceptable. This work was done in San Antonio TX

    Overspray of stain/varnish after service performed.

    Larry with Sturdy Doors came out to provide a walnut stain/varnish service to our front double door on Feb 21, 2024. Doors look great, but there was significant overspray on to the adjacent white stucco wall when the stain/varnish was applied to the outside door trim all around the doors. I have not been able to remove the stain from the stucco. I contacted Sturdy Doors several times on this and they have refused to repair the damage by painting that part of the stucco wall arguing that the stain overspray was already there, and they are not responsible. However, pictures taken immediately before the work was performed showed there was no stain overspray on the stucco, but after the doors were stained/varnished, the stain/varnish is now there. I am now faced with the expense of repairing the damage myself that Sturdy Doors caused on this project. I would strongly warn against using Sturdy Doors as the finished quality of the project was poor, and their lack to effort to repair the damage caused by their service representative makes them an unreliable service provider.

    Troy and Emery came out and did a fantastic job on our front door! They were very courteous and professional. I highly recommend them! I don't think our door had ever been redone in 25 years and it looks brand new. They were very careful throughout the whole prI was and cleaned up everything as well. Thank you!!

    They did a fantastic job in refurbishing the outside and refinishing the inside of our front door. They even straighten out the weather stripping on the door so the door will close better.

    Reached out to this company via text, guy I spoke to asked for door pics, I sent them and was able to get an estimate over the phone, he sent me a link to set my appointment. Dell and his partner came out to our home this morning and not only refinished our door but also replaced the weather stripping that was preventing our door from closing smoothly. Fantastic job for a fair price, highly recommended these folks. Job took about 1.5 to 2 hrs.

    My door needed refinishing. I was going through neighborhood news magazines and several reviews for each company on line. I decided to call Sturdy Door for the appointment. They had to call me to reschedule because the worker's car was broken down on the road. They were very courteous and explained about the refinishing, then text me the time for me to confirm. The worker, Johnny called ahead and told me approximately the time would arrive to my home. He came earlier than the scheduled time. Removed my door carefully and set upstairs my front yard. They stripped the original paint very carefully and included each corners and finished several coats of finishing. My husband and I very please with their beautiful work. Since they had to replaced my bottom door seal, the total cost at the completion was$300. Yes, I definitely will call them again next time.

    Jordan and Kris did an amazing job!! Very professional, quick, and efficient. My door looks amazing!! Highly recommend!!

    Miguel did an amazing job refinishing our front door! He was courteous, professional, efficient, and the prices were reasonable! Miguel provided recommendations based on our requests and was able to stain the door in a way that complimented the exterior of our home. We will definitely contact Sturdy Doors for any future refinishing jobs. Go with Sturdy Doors for all your refinishing needs, you will not be disappointed!

    I've recently used their service. While I was skeptical about interior painting (as it's something…read moreI've never had done before), the finished job came out nicely and I appreciated their service. There was a miscommunication at the start of the project, but in the end, I left satisfied. Julio and his guys did a good job and I feel like my place has more life to it than it did before. For that, I am thankful. Fortunately, I did my own research when it came to the type of paint I felt I should get, where to get it, and approximately how much. Tips/pointers were provided by Julio which I feel were helpful to a newbie customer like me. Overall, I'm happy I chose to use these guys. Pros Courteous and prompt Reasonable pricing Communicative Honest & Helpful Quick and mostly efficient (completed in 1 day) Cons Ended up paying more for paint than what I needed Slight damage to furniture (this was compensated though) Would I recommend? Yes. Would I use again in the future? Yes.

    Took me a while to post this review. I found them on Yelp hoping the reviews are legit. Some of…read morethem probably are. And as much as I would like to give them a good review, them being our last contractor before we finally moved back in our house (after 20 long months of being displaced after Hurricane Beryl), it has been stressful cleaning up after the mess these guys have done to our home. And to this day, we're still finding paint splatters on floors, appliances, furnitures, doors; unpainted areas; uneven paint; it never ends. If you own a home, and you have things inside your home, don't hire these guys. They don't respect your property. Shoe prints on top of our table cover, it's so bad we had to throw it away. We had just installed wood floors on our stairs and there's a lot of scruff marks a thick dirt that we had to scrub it clean. They painted over nails. Paint was dumped on our toilets and sinks, and on our lawn. A simple search confirms that these are ILLEGAL. They tried to deny it but then later admitted to it when confronted. We brought up a lot of these issues shortly after they "finished" and they did come to try to correct many of it. And for that, I give them credit for. But I'm still finding paint splatters on several items, to this day, as we're working our way towards fully settling back in our home. ADDITIONALLY: before they came, we had our home thoroughly and professionally cleaned twice by another contractor specializing on air quality. And those cleaners have video proof of their work so we have evidence of the condition of our home (cleanliness-wise) before these painters roughed it it. I'm truly disappointed and I don't recommend this company to anyone at all.

I was in Sugar Land to help my mother-in-law…read moreget her parents' home ready for sale while she was also helping get them set up in an assisted living facility. I was only supposed to be in town for 4 days but on the third day, during a medical appointment, we discovered that Grandpa had cancer and that he would need a biopsy in the next couple of days. The morning of the medical appointment, I had called Next Door Painting to see if they could come out that afternoon to see our small project. We only needed the entry way freshened up and I was worried it would be too small of a job for them. They were able to schedule me for the same day for an estimate, and then they kindly moved the time back when the medical issues made us run late. Customer service called their agent in the field while I was on the phone to coordinate everything for us. When Judah came to the house, we were beyond tired and his kindness and professionalism was clear from the beginning. He had a good eye for the jobs that needed done, and a clear understanding of what we wanted. He didn't try to up-sell us on more than we needed and advised us on some other projects that could be done in the future if desired. Even though the job was small, Judah treated us like we were important to the business and sent us a professional and reasonable quote. Bad weather had pushed their own jobs back for some projects, so they could not come for about 10 days, but they communicated that clearly and helped us come up with a day that would work in between all the other things we had going on. Finally, the paint that we thought would work ended up not being suitable - I think it might have been old, but when Judah and the team noticed it wasn't right, they went and bought better paint for us and didn't even charge for it. They said they wanted it to be a gift to us given everything the family was going through. The night before they came to paint there had been another difficult medical procedure for Grandpa and my MIL was alone in the house. They were schedule to arrive early, and I asked Judah to coordinate to be let in by our realtor because I wasn't sure that my MIL would be up to the task of engaging with a painting team that morning. Judah handled it all with ease and grace, and the finished job was absolutely beautiful. This company didn't have to be so kind to us, but they have made a hard time easier and we are very grateful. This might be an unusual review to leave for a painting company, but I think it's important to let folks know when a business does a great job and shows such heart. I wouldn't consider using any other business for my painting needs.
