Arrived on time to give the estimate. Was very friendly and professional, inspected all that needed to be done and was honest about what he could not do for us. Gave me a written estimate on the spot. I paid a deposit to order the replacement windows and I was told I get a call as soon as the parts are in. They contacted me to set the appointment and worked with my schedule. Again, arrived on time, the two workers were very professional. They worked h****** a difficult door and they did an excellent job. Left everything clean. Got a call a day or two later from their office to check up on how everything went. Great experience, actually the best experience I had with a Miami contractor so far. Will definitely recommend and use again.
Description of Work: Replaced one broken window. Replaced glass on sliding glass door as well as the rollers. Repaired two sliding glass door screens that were inoperable.

Representative was ill prepared for the interview, lacked samples of screening materials offered. Had to wait two weeks for an appointment to do the job. Late in the afternoon the day before the job was to be done, I got a phone call stating that they could not find the heavy duty screen material I requested for the job, and could they do it in the standard material instead. This smacks of the typical bait and switch tactic used by contractors in this town.

Response from Sunshine Doors Specialists Inc
Thank you for your review, [member name removed]. Please take your time and consider the following: You had to wait 2 weeks for the appointment because we would not and will never disappoint any customer just because someone snaps his/her fingers demanding to be served the moment he/she calls. We work on a schedule and would never skip a customer to serve another one no matter who he/she or how important he/she is or think he/she is. There is no such a thing to be "prepared for an interview" on screens. We do not manufacture screens and are not responsible for their availability in the market. Should our behavior "smacked of the typical bait and switch tactic used by contractors in this town" we wouldn't set an appointment for two weeks from the date you called us. Kind regards, Carlos

What are you talking about? We DO NOT install doors or windows. I have NEVER advertised door or window installation, so I don't understand why you contacted me, to start with. Even so, I kindly replied to your email the day after which was a SUNDAY. And what do I have in return is you just trashing my company like that? God bless you. Carlos, Owner Carlos, Owner

Our Technician ALWAYS give the prices to ALL of our Customer BEFORE starting ANY JOB and yours was no exception. What happened was that you were so happy with the door that you ordered him to do a SECOND door. Thank you for your business and remember you have one full year warranty for BOTH doors.

The service was excellent. I was called a couple of times to confirm the appointment. On the day of the service, the technician, Fred, arrived before the scheduled appointment and completed the job before he was due to arrive. He was courteous and knowledgeable about his work. I will use them in the future should the need arise. I like this company!

When I booked the job it seemed from the way the office manager spoke that "a crew" would do the installation. I booked for Thursday morning and the office said the work might run into Friday morning latest. Not so. They sent one technician only - who sauntered in at 1030am the first day which was Thursday, then left without informing us in the early afternoon. The old South Florida trick - work two jobs at the same time. Should have seen that one coming. On Friday, he strolled in again around 1000 am and said he must leave soon after lunch to work in Aventura. (I am in Kendall) . When I protested, the technician called his office and bitterly complained. I managed to persuade him to stay and work the whole day. Saturday, still working. Sunday - job finally completed late afternoon. So a "one day job" lasted from Thursday to Sunday. The quality of the work is good.

Response from Sunshine Doors Specialists Inc
The work was excellently performed with and we did a great job and not only a good one. The Front Desk Clerk – and not the office manager that spoke with you at no time at all affirmed that “a crew” would be doing the work. And as you could see, one man did, and greatly, by the way. Of course he would have finished it sooner wasn’t for you keeping asking him to explain you every single step of the process. And this was precisely the part where he called the office and was bitterly complaining about. And the only thing that persuaded our technician to stay working late afternoon on a Sunday was his sense of responsibility and commitment to my company, not you. We serve about 12 to 13 hundred customer on a yearly basis and we are one of few companies in South Florida to have built a solid reputation based on honesty and keeping our appointments. So when you refer to us as part of “The old South Florida trick - work two jobs at the same time” you’re being neither honest nor fair. Merry Christmas, [removed member name]. Carlos Habib

Very good experience. The company answered the phone in a friendly manner and scheduled the work for later in the week. They offered to send me a foto of the tech via email and called the prior afternoon with a friendly reminder. The tech actually showed up a bit early!!! He diagnosed the problems and provided several alternative solutions. He then got quickly to work and within an hour a door which had been annoying me for months was better than new. The tech was professional, friendly, fast and neat. The company called after the tech departed to see if all had gone well. I would certainly recommend these folks to friends.
Description of Work: The provider installed a new stainless steel track and rollers on a glass patio door. The tech also re-screened a sliding screen door, repaired the rollers, and properly re-installed it.

Very personable phone contact and ease at making the appointment. The technician was friendly and on time and honest. He analyzed the problem and resolved it in the most economical way. I thought I needed an entire new door however his suggestion of repairing the door with an alternate handle while retaining my locking mechanism was ideal. My existing handle with locking mechanism had to stay in it's fixed position but he added an entirely new pull mechanism. Simple,but I wouldn't have known it could be done without his suggestion.

The tech called to ask if he could come earlier than the originally scheduled time since he had completed his previous job early and was already in the neighborhood. Wow, a novel idea that anyone would arrive EARLY to a scheduled appointment! That was Gold star number 1. The tech was very polite and explained everything before he began his work and took the time to explain what he found as his work progressed. I enjoyed working with this company and would highly recommend them to any of my neighbors.

I told them that I was leaving town for a few weeks in about 3 days, and I needed the work done before then, so that I could secure the apt. They came over gave me an estimate and made the repairs that very day. The rep was a great guy, and did a good job. I would not hesitate to use Sunshine again. .

From the date I first made contact with them by phone, their professionalism showed through starting with a very courteous receptionist. The person who showed up was very professional. When I explained that my problem was a leakage that I suspected under the door, he explained to me that this kind of problem is not within the scope of his work; that he deals specifically with the mechanical aspect of sliding doors. He explained that he wouldn't feel right taking my money for a job that is not necessary in my case. I expressed to him how sorry I was that he had to come all the way from SW Miami to City of Hollywood, he put me at ease by telling me that it comes with the territory. I also had a window to be replaced, he told me he would get back to me for the estimate. I have not yet heard from him regarding the window. Hopefully someone will get back to me as promptly as they came for the sliding door.

Fred, the tech that worked on my door arrived exactly on time. He was very pleasant and professional. He reviewed what had to be done, gave me the estimate, and with my agreement, performed the job. He showed me the best way to keep the tracks clean, and replaced rollers on a very old, heavy sliding glass door in my family room that gets a lot of use. Sunshine doors, the day before, e-mailed me a photo of the technician (Fred) who would be coming to my house as an introduction. I thought that was a very nice touch. My door slides effortlessly now and I am very pleased with Fred and Sunshine Doors. I highly recommend them.

Based on reviews in Angie's List and a neighbor I contacted the vendor and scheduled an appointment for an estimate for two separate matters - repair to a sliding glass door and to replace screens on a screened patio. The office staff couldn't be nicer to deal with and on the day of the appointment I was given two estimates; the glides to a very hard to open/close glass door were repaired that day; quite satisfactorily - the vendor had all necessary replacement parts with him and the door now glides with a push of the finger, no effort at all. The vendor was paid for that repair that day which I considered a fair price and was about the same price my neighbor paid who agreed that the price was fair. We discussed replacement of screens and many panels were pointed out by the vendor as not needing repair and I shouldn't have the extra expense when it wasn't necessary. We also discussed changing the swing on two patio doors and raising the door handles to be in compliance with the county codes for a screened patio as a swimming pool barrier. We scheduled an appointment for the work and that day the vendor arrived on time and did a very good job (especially considering family members had come to use the pool.) There have been no issues with the screen work and the patio doors look like new and are to code. The vendor was professional and a pleasure to work with and I would certainly recommend the company.
Description of Work: Repaired a sliding glass door that was difficult to open and close; and, replaced various old/ripped screen panels on screened patio.

Highly recommended. They worked hard putting new rollers on a very large and heavy tempered glass sliding door. When I said the door did not operate as smoothly as I expected after their repair, they immediately redid all the work and the result was great. These are nice, clean, professional, accommodating folks.

I found them professional, responsive, knowledgeable and punctual. I have used them in the past. The only reason I won't use them now is the price is high for the work needed. They even helped me fix a minor problem. Sure it only took a couple of minutes but to do it during an estimate is really positive reflection on the company. I was impressed.

He was very professional, cleaned up after he completed the installation and was very polite. The price for this job was very reasonable and about $40. less than other companies that I contacted.

A rear sliding door?s glass panel had to be replaced do to a resent break in. They cleaned all the broken glass still attached to the panel, the small pieces outside and in the door?s rails.
