"Picture frame screen looks lovely. Company had to come back twice to adjust top areas (pull in screen and then not tucked in totally. They came out and adjusted. We then noticed that area where metal truss goes across to other metal was not flush. You can actually see the gap/space from the floor. Salesman came out and said he felt it was structurally sound. I shared that might be true but it surely does not look correct for a new job that cost $2,000. He said they already came out twice and they would never want do work for my ever again. Does that sound professional? a. Not willing to tighten metal areas b. Telling a customer you already came out twice and do not wish to work for them ever again. I called the office and was told that the head man, Tom would have to be informed. Alas, Tom is away at a two week convention (during Covid 19 virus) No one else could assist until Tom returns.

Once the job was completed we received an email stating the job looked great but they noticed there were 4 screw holes where the old chair-rail had been removed & asked us to come back & put 4 screws in & wipe down all the aluminum of finger prints. The 2nd email received there was a slight tear in the screen in the upper corner of the structure. Both these warranties were competed in a timely matter. 3rd email, the beam was not secure & provided a picture. Looking at the picture the 2x2 & clip were secure to the structure. We called & left a message stating everything was secure & there was nothing to worry about. We got an email the next day that they did not agree with us, the 2x2 was secure & demanded somebody out immediately. Jeff went out there on Fri, 5/22 & confirmed with [Member Name Removed] the 2x2 & clip were secure & that this was not a warranty issue. She then got extremely aggressive with Jeff. He tried to explain & show her but she wanted nothing to doing it, he left the property. [Member Name Removed] then calls the office saying Jeff was talking about a 3% fee to pay with credit card, that we no longer wanted to business with them, etc... None of which was said, why would we bring up the processing fee for credit payments, their invoice was paid in full at this point. [Member Name Removed] wanted the owner to come out immediately Chris advised Tom was out of town for the next 2 weeks but had already spoken to Jeff regarding the situation & agreed this was not a warranty issue. The lanai was secure & in code compliance. Chris never said Tom was at a convention/seminar just that he was out of town for 2 weeks. It’s convenient she wants throw out Covid-19 situation bc she was the one that told us 4/6/20 that we had to leave her property by 5 pm bc she had somewhere to go. This so happens to be the beginning of the nationwide lockdown bc of the virus & everybody was staying home. We have gone above & beyond for this customer to make her happy. Even giving her stuff for free. Nothing will make her happy.

representative came to house and provided estimate of $475 to replace frame and door in screen room. Faxed them signed agreement and agreed on a Monday a couple weeks out for instillation. We called them the Friday before to confirm and were told they couldn't do it until Thursday. On Thursday, we had not heard anything so called them to find. Had to leave message. Person finally called late in morning and said the installer wouldn't be there until late in day. Installer never showed up and we did not receive phone call. Very unprofessional.

Thank you for leaving a review, as we always welcome them. Yes, we did have to reschedule your appointment from Monday to Thursday due to the weather. However, when we received your voicemail stating you wanted to cancel your appointment because we had not made it to your house by 3:00 p.m., the installer was contacted immediately to find out his location and why he had not made it to you. The installer advised and also showed his phone record, that he placed a call to you to let you know he was on his way and you did not return his call. The installer was in fact pulling in to your neighborhood at the time your voicemail was received. Our company stands behind every appointment we make and we try to accommodate every customers needs. We are sorry you were not satisfied with the timing but unfortunately we have no control of mother nature.

Reliable Screens did an excellent job on the rescreening of my pool cage, at approximately half the price offered by the two competitors from whom I obtained estimates. It's a busy season for them, but we scheduled six weeks in advance and despite a rainy summer, they stuck to the agreed timeframe.

I spoke with Danny and set appt for Wed 4/18. He said Jeff would call when he was 30-45 minutes out. Here it is Sunday 4/22 and I have not heard from Dany or Jeff. I know this is a busy time of year for them, but is busy for all people and I sat at my house all day on 4/18 waiting. No way would I call this company because they do not value YOUR time!!

It went very well. The men arrived in a timely fashion and did the repairs in two days. It looks very good and the head of the repair team, (JR) explained exactly what needed to be done. He took my paint sample and matched it exactly so the new façade would be the same original color.
Description of Work: Our screened porch suffered some damage during Hurricane Irma and we consulted with Reliable Screens to repair the damage as well as re-screen the porch and replace a portion of the façade which was rotten, plus installa new screen door and a doggie door.

They promised that I wouldnt have the problem with rust streaks. They gave me a warranty and didnt honor it. After 3 more attempts to reach the company, I got a call back from the salesman to pressure wash the cage. He said the repairs would be free but I had to pay for the pressure wash which was 850 dollars. This was 4 times more than other quotes.

Response from Reliable Screens Inc
We replaced all the external screws on this customer's cage with stainless steel screws. These are not the screws that are leaving rust drip marks. The screws that have the rust issue are inside the beam (internally screwed) and are not accessible to be changed out. We advised the customer of this at the time the job was being completed and that there was a possibility of the streaks. One way to keep them at a minimum is to clean the cage every 6 months (pressure washing). We normally charge $450.00 to pressure wash a cage of this size (2 story). The reason we charged more is because the cage has not been maintained. It would be necessary get on top of the enclosure, remove some panels and try to remove the rust streaks. We didn't hear back from this customer until last month (February 2017). We sent out the paint representatives to take a look and see if it was a paint issue or the internal screws that were creating this problem. Three different representatives; one from Reliable Screens, one from the Painter and one from the Porter Paints all stated it is the fault of an internal screw that is creating the issue. The only way to get to these screws not to rust is to tear down the cage and rebuild it. We have stayed in contact with this customer every time he has called. This is not a warranty issue and there is nothing more we could or can do about this problem.

The salesperson/estimator came exactly when he was supposed to. The work was also completed in a timely manner and on the day they stated. As far as I can see, the work looks well done. I had to adjust the hydraulic door closer myself since it closed very slowly and did not latch properly when it closed. Overall, this company was very convenient and reliable. I feel like their prices were higher than I've paid for screen replacement and sheet metal work in the past, so next time I will get additional quotes before selecting the contractor. I was short on time and not able to do that in this instance.

The screen installation was not done improperly. This customer has a round spline groove on his enclosure and because it is round spline not flat spline it doesn't have a way to lock into the spline groove. We advised him of this at the time of the estimate and explained that is why we only give a 30 day warranty

Fellow met with my husband promptly, was courteous and professional and, while their bid for gutters was nearly twice that of the company we selected (Boyles), their quote for replacing the screen cage(s) was lower by $235. Because Boyles was doing our gutters, we asked that they 'match' Reliable Screen's bid for the cage(s) and were pleased to have them do so. If they had not, we would have, on the basis of cost and reputation, gone with Reliable Screens for JUST the screen cage(s) and had Boyles do the gutters. Boyles obviously considers 'Reliable Screens' to be worthy competition and trusts that they, too, do good work. I have already recommended to family member they call Reliable Screen for replacement of their own screen cage.
Description of Work: Quoted for providing gutters & downspouts as well as for rescreening back and front of home 'cages' with screens, door hardware.

The provider send a group of workers to my home to build the screen room. they came in to work at my home and began working. They were plugging all types of things to my outlets including a stereo system to blast music which had nothing to do with the job. Once they were finished with the work they left so i went to check everything out and i noticed that the light outside was no longer working so i changed the light bulb still was not working. I than attempted to use my outlets outside and i noticed that they did not work either. Now knowing very well that everything was working before they got there it was obvious that when the workers were working they had plugged in many things from stereo systems to power drills in the outlets that clearly had caused an issue so i decided to call the company and have them fix the issue which they caused. I call them the next day and they send an electrician to look at it who claimed that the workers did not use that outlet and that they were not responsible for the damage. I was being nice and polite the entire time i even gave the electrician 10$ for gas just for driving all the way out to largo. Than we call the company and the so called owner was taking no responsibility for her actions what so ever and she was so rude and it was the worst customer service i had ever experienced. If that was not enough they threatened to put a lean on my home if i did not pay them the remaining balance and they would not help me in any sort of way to fix the problem for which they are obviously responsible for. Imagine you hire a company to build a screen room and they end up messing up your electric and not only do they not try to help but instead completely deny it, give attitude, act unbelievable rude and hang up on their customers. I would not suggest anyone to do business with this company because they are very unprofessional and do not take responsibility for their mistakes and love to make threats when they are clearly at fault.

The majority of what this customer has indicated in his remarks is not true. Our service men did not plug several things into several outlets. Only two outlets were utilized. The first outlet plugged into was under the light. It did not work so we moved to the plug on the other side of the house. It did work and worked after we left and was still working as of Wednesday, when our electrician tested it. Our guys did have a radio but did not blast it. My guys are allowed to play music as long as the customer doesn't object to it. Only the son was there and never came out with an objection to the music. This job was completed on Friday and that evening is when the customer tried to contact us; however we did not receive the message till Saturday. At that time we advised him our electrician was out of town but we would get him out there on Monday between 10 am – 11 am. The electrician was there at 9:55 am and waited for over an hour for the customer’s son, who never showed up. The gate into the back was locked and we were unable to access the property to check the electrical outlet. It was necessary to reschedule for Wednesday and asked if the electrician could receive a service fee of $10 since his time was wasted on Monday. Customer agreed and was very apologetic that his son never showed up. On Wednesday, the electrician checked all outlets with only one not working. The outlet under the light was not working and it was also noticed the light bulb was burnt out; the son did not have a replacement bulb so it could not be tested. When looking at the light and the outlet the electrician determined they were two separate issues. They weren't even on the same connection. When we did the job we had no reason to use the light, so we don’t know if the light was working or not. With the outlet, it was not working when we tried to use it and had no issues with the outlet we did use. We do not believe it necessary to fix or deduct from his bill for something we did not do. I was not rude to the customer but did advise him that if he didn't pay his balance in full I would be forced to place a lien on his property. I did become protective of my company when he said "You don’t want me to ruin your reputation over this, do you?" I told the customer I would not take any more of his threats and that he had so many days to pay us or a lien will be placed on his property. I then said have a Good Day and Good By. The customer also isn't telling you that this was a permitted job and passed county inspection on Wednesday with no issues. Final payment has not been received.
