Professional as they used grout between the blocks, not pre-made glued blocks. Fast as they replaced 5 basement windows within a couple hours. Clean as there was little if any cleanup after they were done. Finally they were cheap as after eight quotes were almost exactly the average of the max and min quotes. The change was desperately needed as the old windows were single pane, metal framed, and leaking air. This reduced the heat loss in the home significantly.

They were great. The price is fair and their service is good. They are quick and prompt. The guy came in, he did four windows and he was done in four hours. We told them there was a leak about six months later, we called them and they came back out and they patched up the areas. They're probably a small company but they were professional. They guy came out, did it, explained everything to us snd when we had an issue they came back and repaired it. I recommended them to other people.

this company does not seem to want any business, judging from the lack of responce from them
Description of Work: I've had the same problems with this company: Sean would make an appointment and not arrived; did not respond to my phone calls, so thusly, I just joined Angie's List to read reviews of this company and to find others.

called the main office to schedule an appointment for an estimate. The salesperson responded in less than 12hrs and was at the house within 24hrs. Written estimate was given and based on it the contract was signed. The next day after the deposit was made, the scheduler called with our installation date. Unfortunately, due to the wet weather, our installation was delayed an additional 2 weeks. The scheduler made sure to constantly update us of any changes. The installers arrived on time and went right to work. They did a phenomenal job. The clean up was suberb too. I would recommend them to everyone.

Arrived on time, but weren't super careful with existing exterior plants near windows. The windows were installed well, held up well, but they left out a part for the dryer vent, and didn't clean up after themselves very well. Left bits of old wood and nails in the driveway.

I was told the guys would be at my house between 9am-10am and they were there at 9am! They promptly began their work. The main guy was really friendly, didn't speak to much to the other guy. Both worked extremely hard with no breaks and finished a little after 12pm. They did clean up after themselves but it wasn't the best. I needed to clean the walls and scrub the floor but that's a little consequence to the wonderful work they did.
Description of Work: I had seven glass block windows installed in the basement.
