I contacted Window World and Windows Again and McDaniel Windows before I contact Bama Windows and Doors. Window world set up an appointment to come out and measured all my windows and gave me a price of 333 dollars a window? What happen to the 189.00 window I asked! Well after a bunch of this and that I figured each company has a gimick. To get the windows a house should have I had to pay 60 extra dollars a window for Low E and argon gas? Plus fees for wrapping the window and a disposal charge. Then there was Windows Again...Again??? Three phone calls to get him to show up, then he was late. He was almost the same price as window world and I asked him where the 189 dollar window was and I got darn near the same speech as the first one 331 dollars. So I called McDaniel Windows and he was just plan Expensive. When I contacted Bama the man was there in a few hours and he did like the rest showed me a window like what I could get but the one thing he did was beat everyones price. 296 dollars a window and that was with installation and the Low E and Argon gas was included they were double hung double pane windows with a white vinyl frame. I paid for the windows and they were delivered in 7 days. The installation crew came out and in about 6 hours they were done. I can already tell the difference and my utility bill is darn near dropped in half. Erik Denton and his crew are nice men they worked hard and got my job done. Please call Bama Windows and Doors if you want new windows or replacements.

We have a 12 x 12 deck then 4 stairs to a 4 x 8 running deck that leads to 7 more stairs. The wood was rotten and needed replacement. Last Christmas we had a guest fall part way through some of the decking, It was dangerous to sit on, let alone walk on it. We wanted to go with a Choice Dek composite wood to replace the decking and repaint our hand rail and replace any bad ballusters. I knew the material alone was going to run over 2000 dollars. The first Contractor was way to cheap, beside the fact he was inconsistent when describing how the work would be done, I had a feeling he didn't know what he was doing. The second company was very expensive at 9000 dollars. Then Sweet Home Repairs bid came in at 4500 for the third and final estimate . I hired Sweet Home Repairs immediately giving him a down payment check, signed a simple contract agreement to which he scheduled us in and arrived at the day and time he gave. The work was complete in 3 days and looked better then we had hoped. I would gladly use Sweet Home Repairs again and have plans for other project later. We enjoyed our deck all summer and no one fell through!

The job went very well a little longer then we excpected but that was due to all the water damage our shower in the other bathroom caused from years earlier. The bathroom was completely tore down to the studs in one day. The next two days were replaceing the floor studs in the floor that hold up the floor. Then on the second day a Jack and support beams wear placed on both ends of the bathroom under the floor to give better support to the floor, and all the plywood was replaced along with all the plumbing and electrical was redone. The Third day all the drywall boards were hung and in the afternoon anther man and helper showed up to "mud the walls" as Mr. Denton put it. On the fourth day the bathroom was painted with a first coat of paint and then the new tub and surround was installed. On the Fourth day the vanity and sink was put in place and a second coat of paint was applied. On the Fifth day the mirror and light switch was installed and concrete board and some orange membrane thing with a German name was put down. The following Monday the tile was done Then on Tuesday the grout, towel bars and toilet went in along with all the final touches were done. I was very impressed. GREAT JOB!!!

We have a home built in the early 80s and at almost 20 years old things are starting to fall apart and need repairs. I am a religious watcher of DYI T.V. shows. I have even read Mike Holmes book " Make it Right" and that is how I learned how to hire a good contractor. I had contacted several companies before I settled most of which were to busy doing other things when they were suppose to be at my house on a scheduled day to give me a estimate. Then again some would show and I could tell they had no idea what they were talking about. Then there was the 2 that stood out and so I chose Sweet Home Repairs. Mr Denton the owner took the time to discribe each step that they would do and how they would put it all back together. Day 1: They started and they totally dismantled my entire bathroom minus the drywall on the ceiling. Day 2: Started off with them repairing the floor supports because the old tile leaked, re-running new water lines and replaced the unsafe receptical that was located in the lower wall near the bath tub to a safer place near the vanity and with a GFI. Last they installed plywood on the floor Day 3: Installed all new drywall on the walls and concrete board on the floor and walls where tile would go back up. All the concrete boards were sealed with a orange stuff called Kerdie . Day 4: They installed the new bathtub and laid all the tile on the floor. Day 5: Came in that morning and installed all the tile on the tub wall and around the wall of the bathroom. then grouted everything. Day 6: came in installed the pedistal sink , toilet towel bars and new toilet paper dispensor and cleaned everything. By 2 pm they were done and on there way

I had contacted several fence companies around the area and each one that would show up would take the information I would give and never contact me again. I knew I had a difficult fence to construct and a real carpenter would be needed to do the job. I got Sweet Home Repairs phone number from a neighbor Mr. Denton built a wooden deck for. Mr Denton is a professional he arrived on time neatly dressed and spoke properly and handled himself well. I showed him a drawing of what I wanted gave him the mesurements and showed him where I wanted the fence to start and end. That evening Mr. Denton contacted me with his price which I knew was a fair price since I priced the cypress lumber myself. I told him I would hire him and a contract was drafted, I signed it along with giving him a down payment and a date was given for the start of the job. Mr. Denton and his workers showed up on the date they had set and in 3 days my fence was constructed and complete. Mr Denton did exactly what he said he would do and his price stayed the same. I was so happy with his work I hired him do build me a deck.

Just like the first job Mr. Denton drew up a contract took a down payment and started to workthe folowing Monday. Mr. Denton and his men were on the job each and every morning at 530 and went home at 4 pm monday thru friday. The job took 3 weeks and was wonderful to watch it come together. Mr. Denton used pine for the frame and cypress for the deck top. It is so well built if feels like concrete when you walk on it. Mr Denton also laid a small concrete pad area when you step off the deck it mets with my exsisting sidewalk.

Hired Mr. Denton for a 3rd time. Needed all my 22 aluminum windows replaced. Mr Denton came in measured each window and gave me a price. I hired him and in a day he and his crew were able to remove all 22 windows and replace them with the new windows. He returned the next morning to caulk, trim and finish insulating the windows. two days later the door came in with the window lites and he came over and put it in. I was so happy my little house is just coming together.

I had found Sweet Home Repairs through a lady I knew from church she said he was the best contractor she had ever used. After I contacted the company he set up an appointment to see the job. He measured it and a few days later he contacted me so he could drop off the bid. Sweet Home Repairs came in at 12500 I hired him and his company the next day. I gave a check for 6500 dollars down and got a contract in return. I had contacted several companies and each bid varied by 1000s of dollars, I had one bid over 20,000 dollars and my lowest bid being 9000. I knew those were just not right and so I entertained a few more. From what I had been told from friends and relitives that material and labor should be 2.5 times the cost of material alone this would make my job around 12 to 13 thousand dollars. Mr Denton and his two helpers came in a gutted the whole bathroom in one day. By the time I got home from work they were gone and the bathroom was too. There was not any mess either, they had cleaned everything. The next morning Mr Denton arrived and asked where I was going to want the pot lights in the bathroom, as I pointed his helpers hung them. As I left I saw them reinsulating my walls with new fiberglass insulation and by the time I got home the bathroom had been redrywalled and covered with cement boards in the place that tile was to go. After a week of watching my bathroom develope into what I dreamed of we finally got to see tile being laid. Mr Denton laid down Hardie cement boards along with a system by Shuluter called Kerdi that went right over the cement boards this waterproof the bathroom from any leakage coming through the floor and runing any part of my house. Nine working days later all was done and my bathroom was ready to be mine again. I wrote Mr Denton a check for the remaining 6500 and we were done. I am so happy with my new bathroom and i cant wait til January cause i am going to have him do our house bathroom down stairs next.
