"This is the second time I have used this company, and I have been extremely pleased both times. This time I needed some repair work to my deck and previously they installed lights, a range hood, bathroom hardware and soffit repair and painting. They are prompt, professional and hard-working. I would rate them as exceptional and recommend them highly. I will definitely be using their services in the future."

"Greg contacted me almost immediately after I received the referral from Angie's List.  He agreed to come by my house and perform the work I requested and was very polite, well organized and efficient.  His work was excellent and he stayed in touch with me until everything was completed so that I was aware of his plans.  I would certainly contract with him again and/or recommend him to anyone in need of a painter/handyman.

"Great experience! Besides repairing two windows, Tim also repaired three cabinets, door handle, flooring and a closet door. Great care was taken with each repair. Both my husband and I are very happy with the quality of the service and are already planning on using them again for our next project. Highly recommended !!!!"

"DSR was great to work with and were planning use this firm on several future projects. Drew, the owner, is incredibly skilled at his craft and was simply fascinating to watch as he measured, demolished and ultimately replaced with great skill a wall we asked him to remove and replace with glass doors. He was efficient in his work, and patient with us in explaining what he was doing and what he needed from us at every step of the way. We found him to be very personable with a great sense of humor. But most importantly, his work was superior: from demolition; to installation; to finish; to clean up; to follow up, Drew left no stone unturned and was determined to make sure we were satisfied with the job. And we are VERY satisfied, so much so that we are discussing a few future projects. I cannot say this enough: my wife and I ENTHUSIASTICALLY ENDORSE DSR Builders!!!!"

"I hired Integrity 1st Roofing in September 2017 to replace my roof. I had a great experience working with the Shaun, the Production Manager. Everything was in writing and done to my satisfaction. It is now October 2023. I have had no leaks or damage to any shingles. The inside attic has remained dry. In fact, the roof still looks new! I am grateful that I chose Integrity 1st Roofing. Of the three quotes I got, theirs was in the middle. I liked that too. This was the biggest purchase/repair for my home. Everything turned out very well. The quality is still excellent."

"Eric needed to repair the cracked stoop, level the stoop, prep it for new tile and lay the tile. He was meticulous and the result was outstanding. He made many trips to our house to get this multi-step project done. We would hire Eric again; he's honest, skilled and hard working."

"This was my third move with Moving Ahead Services, and it went just as well as the first two moves. Each time I've used their services, the communication has been fantastic. It has been easy to contact them if I have any questions or concerns prior to the move. They call the day before to confirm things and see if you need any last minute boxes or other items. Luckily, they were able to bring a mattress bag for me when I realized I didn't have one. Each of the crews I've worked with have been polite, personable, and efficient. No items have ever been broken or damaged in the moves. They take care to wrap everything nicely and protect the items, but they do it very quickly. I will definitely be using them in the future if their services are required."

"I really like the online appointment setting. My water heater pilot light would not stay lit, starting on a Saturday night and I was able to schedule a non-emergency appointment for Monday right then. The technician was very prompt, courteous and professional. He was able to measure that their was no voltage coming from the thermopile and determine that the part needed was either the thermopile assembly kit or the gas valve assembly. He also was able to help me look up the warranty information, show that my water heater was under warranty for parts still and the number to call to order the part. He also scheduled an installation appointment for the day my parts were scheduled to arrive right then. I received the estimate the next day, while waiting for the parts to come the following day after that. The installation prices seemed really high considering the price of a new water heater. The estimate for installation of both parts when they arrived, the thermopile and gas valve assembly, was $700. I canceled my appointment, knowing that if my husband and I could not put the parts on ourselves or find someone we know with water heater part experience, then I could buy a whole new water heater for that estimate price. We drained our water heater ourselves, and from there our HVAC/Furnace family member was able to install the new parts, check for leaks, refill, and start up the water heater with no problems in under 2 hours. While the customer service from Flow-Rite was very good, the high priced estimate was very unreasonable. The initial service call was worth $50, but I would not call them again based on their service prices.

FAQs for security bars service projects in Cincinnati, OH

Window security bars create a physical barrier that discourages quick entry, making most intruders move on to an easier target. Properly installed bars can also help keep children and pets from accidental falls, giving homeowners added peace of mind. 

To maximize both safety and security, have a licensed professional install quick-release hardware that meets local egress requirements.

Installing window security bars is legal in most areas, but local building codes often require emergency-egress features and quick-release hardware. Some states and municipalities, including California, Mississippi, and Texas, prohibit permanently closed burglar bars to prevent occupants from becoming trapped in the event of a fire. 

Before installing window security bars, review local and state regulations for setback requirements, operable hardware, and fire safety compliance. This ensures your installation meets legal standards while keeping your home secure and accessible in the event of an emergency.

Window security bars enhance home safety features and appeal to buyers who prioritize protection. Properties with professionally installed window security bars often qualify for lower homeowners insurance premiums, offsetting some of the installation cost. This value boost is most pronounced in neighborhoods with higher crime rates, where buyers feel more secure. 

Choosing custom or decorative bars enhances your home's curb appeal, while quick-release mechanisms maintain emergency access, making your home both more marketable and safer.

To make window bars look attractive, select custom decorative designs that complement your home’s architectural style. Wrought iron bars with scrollwork, floral motifs, or geometric patterns can become an elegant focal point rather than a security eyesore. 

Incorporate planter boxes beneath your windows, allow climbing ivy to soften the lines, or apply a coordinating paint finish to blend bars with exterior colors. You can also install quick-release decorative panels or matching shutters that conceal bars when not in use, achieving both beauty and security.
