From the beginning of Tom's initial visit to bid the work, he was friendly and highly professional. He completed an estimated using either the standard or higher quality mesh screeing and did an excellent job of explaining the difference. He was open to follow up calls and willing to negotiate on costs in order to meet our budget. He provided excellent information of ways for us to cut the cost to include power washing solutions and efforts we could do ourselves. He was willing to reduce the amount of screening we actually replaced and his crew was professional and competent. He made recommendations to improve the original work effort such as screening around the rocks which showed me his knowledge of the issues causing potential dissatisfaction of homeowners. He provided additional window screens into the house at minimal costs in order to provide high quality service. He was unable to complete the slider doors but they were damaged from prior use and not part of the original scope of his job. I would recommend Tom to family and friends.
Description of Work: Estimated and then completed the rescreening of multistory screened pool enclosure to include replacing screen over open pool area and down sides of 2 story enclosure attached to home. Completed repair of some of pool enclosure doors and partially completed rebuid of slider door into home.

No where near enough room to explain everything that went wrong. The contractor when replacing the screening let all the debri that was on the top of the lanai fall into the pool nearly ruining my pool pump. When they pressure washed the pool deck, they lost decorative tile that cannot be replaced. Twenty-five tiles in all came up. I am still looking for them all. Some I've found in the pool, side yard, and even in the pool filter area where they had been sucked into the skimmer of the pool. I had asked that a dog door be installed in the lanai, but I did not get it. I called the owner who had originally provided me the estimate and he stated that he did not realize when I was talking about the dog door, that I actually wanted one. He told me the guys would clean up before they left, but I could not get him to understand that I could not find all the tiles and that it was important to find them because I thought the tiles may be too old to buy replacement ones. His solution was to have his company completely redo all the tiles and that he could get me an estimate on that. When it was all said and done, the workers asked for an additional $100 over the estimate because when the estimate was done, the pressure washing had not been included. They also offered to bring a dog door back the next day and install it for an additional $175 which I refused. The one good thing about the whole thing is that the screening on the lanai has been fine so far.

Response from Reliable Screens Inc
I would like to address this complaint. I have twenty-five reviews on Angie’s List and they speak for themselves. Most of my customers have been referred to me by previous customers. If I did not care about my work and professionalism, I would not be on Angie’s List. I advise my customers that I am on Angie’s List and that they are welcome to post comments. This woman’s account of the job that we performed for her is simply false. When I gave her an estimate, for only rescreening, the customer mentioned to me, when I was walking to my truck, that she may be interested in pressure washing and a dog door. We discussed it and she told me she would let me know about the pressure washing and dog door. She agreed to the price for the rescreening and pressure washing and never again mentioned the dog door. Of course, pressure washing does cause a small amount of debris to get into the pool and I always advise my customers of that in advance. We are very careful and try to keep that at a minimum. If this customer would have told me that her pool pump may not be working, I would have made sure, in advance, that the pump was operating properly at no extra cost to her. The customer already had replacement tiles for the loose ones on her window sill. She knew about the loose tiles and advised me that she was going to replace the tiles herself. My employees did not ask for additional money. They asked to be paid the amount that was agreed upon between myself and the customer for rescreening, pressure washing and cleaning the gutters. We never discussed a dog door after the first time she asked me about it when I gave her the initial estimate for rescreening. I am disappointed that a customer is posting inaccurate information about our work; however, I have been in business for a many years and never had an unhappy customer, as is reflected in all of my reviews on this website, and I am proud of that. We always clean up after our work and I personally always call the customer the day after the job is completed to confirm that they are satisfied and happy with our work. I did call this customer and left a voice mail. She never returned my call. Should you be interested in hiring us, please do not hesitate to give us a call and we will be happy to provide as many references as you want.

This is the second job I've had Reliable Screens do on my lanai, and I was 100% satisfied with all aspects of the experience, from the prompt response through the quality of workmanship, including the installer, Devin's, professionalism. Devin introduced himself at my doorstep, invited me to inspect the installation, and on his way out mentioned that he could also enclose my small front porch. I know that sales is the mark of a good "field" or customer service employee, but I have been thinking about enclosing the front porch for years. He gave me a reasonable estimate and directed me to their 10% off Angie's list coupon, and, although I hadn't yet printed it out, marked on the estimate that I had the coupon and would get the discount. When I've saved up the money in a couple of months, I will definitely call Mr. Pooler and ask for Devin to return and do that job. I mention Devin specifically for a reason. For the first job I had Reliable Screens do, Mr. Pooler's repair person didn't introduce himself, nor did he give me a receipt. He did do a solid job, replacing the latch on the screen door from the lanai to the back yard, timely and properly. But his professionalism was far less than Devin's. So be sure to ask for Devin to do your work.
Description of Work: On the date for the service of this report, I had a section of ground-level screen replaced on my lanai enclosure. Devin arrived on time, verified the $40 price quoted would cover the job, and completed it quickly and with excellent quality.

I called and Tom was out to give the estimate the next day. His installer came out, and was helpful in pointing some things out that I had missed going over with Tom the previous day. I agreed to the new price and he began work right away. I'm satisfied with the work, very professionally done. I would use this company in the future if I had any other issues with my screened enclosure.
Description of Work: I had some screen panels replaced, a new door constructed to make room for a downspout they installed, as well as new hardware and screen for my other door.

My husband left a phone message. The owner, Tom, returned his call the same day. Tom gave my husbnad a resonable quote and said that he could come out the following day. Unfortunately, we missed his call for directions. We called, again, and then new arrangments were made. Tom did a great job. We will use his services again in the future and recommend him to others. BTW, Tom asked where we had heard about his service and we mentioned Angie's List. He was pleased.
Description of Work: Tom was so responsive to my husband's call. He was able to come out the next day and make the repair to our satisfaction.

Called the company yesterday and phone was answered right away. Told the man what was wrong and he said he could send a person out the next morning. Young man called today when he was en route and arrived promptly. He quickly repaired the broken screen panel and then checked to see if we had any other problems. He said everything was in good order. I was pleased with the quick response and the work and will use the company again for any future work.

We are extremely pleased! The screens look beautiful - nice and tight with no wrinkles. We received 3 estimates for the job, and all were competitively priced. Tom impressed us with his knowledge and professionalism, and we immediately knew we had the right person for the job. All work was completed as described, on time, and at the quoted price. We definitely recommend this company. Should we ever need screen services in the future, this will be the only call we need to make.
Description of Work: Tom completely rescreened our pool enclosure, using "super screen" on all bottom screens. Tapcons were replaced and new door hardware was installed. 2 heavy-duty tie-downs were added. We also asked Tom to return a week later to install a second screen door on our enclosure, which involved adding the framework needed to accommodate the new door.

Daivid and Jake did a fine job. Called Tom about a week prior, described what I wanted done, he gave me a price over the phone. Set a date and time for the work to be completed. They called the night before to confirm and that morning to say they were on the way. Did a great job, cleaned up after themselves, and were very polite. They also pointed out some problems with my pool enclosure frame that I did not realize but were not pushy about having it done.

He was punctual and came when he said he would. He not only fixed my door, but did extra work on my other porch door which was more work than he thought. He replaced a couple of screens for a nominal price and I gave him extra for the extra time he put on the other door. I was EXTREMELY pleased with his professional manners, work ethic and prices. I would definitely use him again and I would refer my friends to him without a hesitation.
Description of Work: I had a kick plate damaged on my porch screen door. I went to Angie's List and looked at the A rating companies. I chose this company and Tom said he was right down the street from me and came by within an hour. Assessed the situation, gave a quote and possible solutions and after looking at my options, I called him and told him to come fix one door and replace the damaged door. He came back the next day.

Excellent. Tom promptly returned by call inquiring about repairing a large screen on my lanai. He was even able to quote me a price over the phone. Turned out that I found another screen that needed repair and called him back. He came out and repaired both screens while I was at work. He even checked and tightened the cage cables. I would recommend him to anyone. He does an excellent job at a price far below others.

We contacted Reliable Screens in the morning and left a message. They returned our call and gave us a estimate of what the job would cost and set up a window of time to come over. They contacted us again by phone within the time setup and confirmed they were on their way. The repair man was polite and provided a receipt upon completion of the job which was within the estimate of cost. We would not hesitate to call them in the future for more work.

I picked out 4 companies I found on Angies list to give me estimates on re-screening my pool cage. I called all 4 of them and left a message to call me about the job. 3 out of the 4 called me back within hours and set up appointments to come out and give me an estimate. The 4th one I never even heard from at all. The 3 estimates I got were all within about $100 of each other. After thinking about it for a few days I selected Reliable Screens to do the job. No particular reason, I just got a good feeling about Tom from the conversation I had with him when he came out and gave me the estimate. I called Tom on a Monday morning and told him he got the job. He said he could be out on Thursday to do the job. On Wednesday Tom called me and said they were running behind on their current job due to rainy weather and wouldn't be out until Thursday afternoon or Friday morning. I said that was fine. He called on Thursday to let us know that he wouldn't be there until Friday morning. That's the first time I've had a contractor keep me up to date on when they would be at my house as much as Tom did. That was much appreciated. There's nothing I hate more than taking off of work and waiting at home for a contractor that doesn't show up or even call. On Friday morning, Tom showed up at 8:00 to drop off the supplies for the job. He said the guy's would show up about 8:30 to start work on the screen. Tom then took off to go and do some estimates. His guy's showed up right around 8:30 and started work. They removed all the old screening and spline. I had my roof replaced a year ago, and when they did that, a lot of pieces of tile and other roofing materials fell into the gutters. They didn't clean out the gutters because of the way they were mounted on the roof and a splash guard that prevented access to the gutter. So I asked Tom if they could help me get the splash guard off so I could clean out the gutter while they worked on the screen. I had spent my previous weekend working on removing the splash guard and was able to remove one section of it but I was not able to get the other section off because of a hidden screw. They found the screw and got the splash guard off and then we discovered just how much trash was in the gutter. It was completely filled up. Right about that time we got a nice heavy rain to fill up the gutter and make a nice big mess. After the rain stopped, we worked on cleaning out the gutter. We removed the end cap so we could just push the trash right out the end of gutter into a bucket. So the 3 of us worked on cleaning out the gutter for the next half hour or so. What a pain that was. After all the garbage was out of the gutter, I gave the guy on the roof my pressure washer hose to spray out all the muck that was still in the gutter. I hadn't planned on having Tom's guys clean out the gutter but because they helped me out with it I gave them a $50 tip. After that the guys were able to focus on getting the new screen put on the cage.
Description of Work: I had them re-screen my entire pool cage.

When the roofing company finished, they came back and replaced the gutters. They also replaced screens on my doors, and enclosed patio. I had to call them once to come back to fix a problem, they did not have a problem coming back. The price was fair for the large amount of work that was done.

It went fine. As described above he was prompt, did the work quickly, it looks fine, and he threw in extras that he did not charge me for.
Description of Work: At 2pm today I called Tom and it is now 4:25pm and the job is complete. I needed to repair several panels of screening covering our pool and deck. Tom was available so he met me at 3pm, gave me an estimate, I OK'd the price and he quickly went to work. In addition to repairing 5 panels, he also threw in the repair of two screen doors, installing a latch on one door and a hinge on the other for no extra charge. Two of the panels were somewhat tricky as they had 45 degree angles that had to be cut and properly attached.

Tom was extremely prompt and efficient with both his initial estimate and the work. He took extra time to assure that both sliding doors were working properly and well fitted. He focused on the most effective and least costly repair and made suggestions that I would have not considered that were a great improvement. He recommended screen replacements only where they were needed.
Description of Work: I needed to have two sliding screen doors repaired and one window screen replaced. Although Reliable is a screen repair company, Tom readily agreed to work on the doors to repair them. He assessed the best option to repair the deck door, as it was the worst, so that it did not have to be completely replaced and did the same for the second door. He also custom built and fit the side window screen that had been damaged.
