Get matched with top storm door installers in Carolina, RI

"I am an avowed DIY-er, but I know my limitations ! In our version of "This Old House", our recent purchase of a 1910 home was in desperate need of new windows. The quotation appointment was prompt, on-time, with options offered for different grade of replacements and features. The price seemed fair (not a bargain basement offer, and VERY far from the 'ridiculous' numbers always put out by an un-named famous national chain). The expectations for installation date range were clearly set (as we all know some of the supply chain challenges we are all currently living with). Installation date was arranged, once they had the units from their supplier. Friendly reminder call the day before, crew of 2 showed up exactly on time, and the work was efficiently and professionally executed. 15 replacements completed on 1st day, and 2 more days (per plan) to complete to work for installing 2 brand new openings for 2 additional windows. Only a few days in, so far - but we could NOT be happier. The work was completed with craftsmanship (see below, as a portion of the work was more than just installing replacements)."

"Dennis is the absolute best! I recently had a bathroom vanity installed, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The entire process was smooth from start to finish. Dennis was professional, punctual, and clearly skilled at his craft. Dennis paid great attention to detail, ensuring the vanity was perfectly aligned, securely fitted, and seamlessly connected to the plumbing. The workspace was kept clean throughout the project, and everything was thoroughly cleaned up afterward. The finished vanity looks fantastic and has completely elevated the look and functionality of my bathroom. I truly appreciate the quality workmanship and would highly recommend Dennis to anyone looking for someone reliable and efficient."

"Tom called within a few hours of us signing up for this site. He was here the next day to give a quote. Due to the uniqueness of our request for door placements and sizes, the job took longer than planned, so he came back another day to finish. Very satisfied with his work, and our son is now safe and doesn't have access to areas of the house which were previously unsafe for him. Kitchen/bath remodels are next and we will, without hesitation, call Harrop & Son."

"Our front stairs needed to be repaired and we had some wood rot that needed to be replaced along the back doors. They did a great job on both projects and the cost was very reasonable."

"Material delivery only. A bit expensive but a quality door that is sturdy."

"Excellent experience from the estimate to completion. Work was expertly done, with attention to detail. The wooden doors now look better than when they were new. All of the crew were professional, pleasant, respectful of the property and did outstanding work. Over the years we have done our own painting and the work of this team exceeded our expectations."

"The guys who came to do the installation were wonderful, very nice and professional. The only problem is that I really didn't notice any difference in the before and after. My garage doors are still so loud that if I'm in my bedroom (above the garage) they scare me every time they open. I'm just not sure there was any way for them to improve the sound - I guess I wish there had been more discussion the install or follow up afterwards.

"UPDATE #2:
Windows, sliding doors and front door are finally finished.  The installers did a fantastic job.  The windows we ordered were not the ones we received.  We ordered the SoftLite Pro window and received the Imperial LS.  The LS is a better made window as it's one of the upper tier SoftLite windows but with the standard glass package ends up with a slightly higher u factor (0.28 vs 0.27 for the Pro).  Plus, the opening is a little smaller as the Pro has a thinner sash.  But it really isn't enough of a difference to gripe as the windows look terrific.   SoftLite offered us a credit for the rebates so we could purchase a new AC unit that would fit the narrower sash, which was a solid gesture on their part.  

The sliders we ordered were not even offered by SoftLite.  So we ended up with a triple pane 0.26 u factor slider for the cost of a double pane 0.27 u factor (which is not made, it's actually a 0.28 u factor double pane slider).  The sliders are seriously heavy.  I'd recommend anyone considering sliders to get the triple pane slider since it's all glass, there's a lot of heat transfer - better to have the extra protection here.  

The ThermaTru door had a couple cosmetic dings from the manufacturer - extra caulk, a slightly cracked frame.  Again, easy enough to just fix those issue than to get bent out of shape about it.  

All in all, it wasn't the smoothest job and there were real communication issues.  The owner had other issues he was dealing with so I can understand it to some extent.  Still, as a business, communication is key.  The installers were great - really courteous, really professional.  They worked right through for two and half days to get the windows and front door done.  Then came back for another full day to do the sliders.  

Most contracting jobs will have problems - this one had more than it's fair share.  But the key is to acknowledge the problems and make them right.  They did that.  And in the end, the product - the whole reason for the job in the first place - turned out beautifully.   


UPDATE #1:
Received a call from the owner on Monday, 27 July.  He acknowledge problems and is trying to make things right.  There were very real issues with communications, scheduling, and ordering as the sliding doors we ordered were only just submitted on Monday 27, July, even though we ordered them back in early June.  The 4-5 week project we were quoted will end up being an 8-10 week project and the window and front door portion will be installed (I hope) the first week of August.  I will continue to update as the project progresses.  I'm hopeful the worst is over.

After calling several times to find out the status of our install, since we were a few weeks past the original time quote and I still hadn't been contacted, the run around started on 17 July.  Apparently the windows were manufactured and were shipped to the contractor but there were no sliders.  In fact, no one seems to know where the sliders are or if they were ever ordered (I say apparently because I have no way of knowing or verifying this) .   Still, the windows were in so we were told we would be able to at least get that portion of the job done and when the doors were available, they would come back to do those.  The first date we were told they would be installed was Monday, 20 July.  The owner, Steve, called and asked me to call him to confirm the Monday install.  That call was on Friday the 17th and I returned his call on Saturday AM and left a message saying that Monday would be fine.  Monday AM I still hadn't received confirmation about the install so I called Monday AM.  The installer was doing another job and he wouldn't get to me until the following week (27 July).  On that call, I was also told that Steve would get to the bottom of the mystery of the disappearing slider doors.  I have called 3 times since Monday the 20th to get an update about either the window install or the sliders.  It is now Monday, 27 July and I still have no idea if my windows will be installed or if the sliders we ordered and paid for were ever actually ordered."
