Fantastic! Great service, prompt and courteous, too. I called the #1 company in this category for a quote and their price was over double of what I was charged by Chris at Hurricane Proof. Highly recommended! Don't pay double - get it done right by Chris, and save a pile of money. Thanks, Chris!

No negatives.
Description of Work: He responded to my request for a hurricane proofing quote. Received a quote from Chris quickly. At this time we will not utilize his quote because of some unexpected developments.

Chris Carr of Hurricane Proof was great to work with in understanding the objectives, recommending alternatives and scheduling the work. The two people who worked on the job were also very personable and professional in their work. The cost was about the same as a competitive bid. For this project, they also rigged a way to insert a dog access door which I can remove/install as needed depending on the weather (this was done on a per-hour fee). They were creative in figuring out a way to make this work. All inspections passed. The only minor complaint is it was originally estimated to take 3 days, but it took longer which resulted in some last minute juggling to get time away from work.
Description of Work: Replaced 3 sliding entry doors (two 2-panel, one 3-panel) and replaced main entry door with sidelights, all windstorm rated. Also rigged fitting to insert dog door (removable in case of hurricane).

They were very professional, we liked them. It was pretty expensive. They were late but they called us.
Description of Work: We got a quote from Hurricane Proof but we haven't made the decision yet. It was for our two front doors, an entryway to the garage and possible hurricane shutters.

My experience with them was good. It was very professional. I did not use them because I live in a development where the home owner association controls anything you do to the exterior of your house, and they did not like the drawing of the design. They were very professional and prompt. That is a winner down here in south Florida. Folks do not tend to show up on time. They came with lots of literature. I believe it was one of the co-owners of the company that came and gave me the estimate. I was impressed with that, but I was just not able to complete the job.
Description of Work: I had Hurricane Proof come to give me an estimate for putting on two big awnings outside my patio.

Chris Carr personally came out and gave us an estimate for window protection. He had exceptional ratings on Angie?s List and was even referred to us by another vendor for an unrelated contracting job. Mr. Carr provided us with an extremely reasonable quote for accordion shutters on the entire rear of the home and clear louvered panels for second story windows. In the end, my wife and I chose another form of window protection. Nonetheless, we would definitely refer Mr. Carr and Hurricane Proof to other people considering window protection for their homes. He exhibited a great professional demeanor and knowledge of his craft.

Working with Chris Carr, at Hurricane Proof, made a very expensive investment a very good decision. He took his time and answered all our questions and the final product looks and works great.
Description of Work: We wanted to protect our front entry and back of the house with a hurricane product that looked good and passed code. Chris showed us various choices and went through several cost estimates before we decided on roll downs. Once we decided on roll downs we had to make sure our one large opening would meet code. Chris worked out all the engineering with his supplier and it passed the mitigation inspector with no problem.

Very well. Professional. On time, and easy to work with. Very nice people in all areas. There were a couple of weather delays because a large portion of the work was outside.
Description of Work: Hurricane Proof was a joint partner with R C Windows and doors. One partner did the windows, doors and hurricane shutters and the other did the awning. Both were excellent. I believe the total spent between the two was about $4000.00 without checking the old invoices.

Perfect. Installation was pretty quick and the weather was good that day for outside work. Chris was very good and the whole relationship from pricing to selecting the awning and the fabric was great. This company was referred to us by RC Windows and Doors (Ron Conklin.)
Description of Work: Install retractable awning to fit over both sliding doors (approx 17 or 18 feet wide) with our choice of fabric.
