"Recently we hired Ardmore to replace the glass in 2 of our skylights and install a new storm door. Other than rain delays the skylights were installed in less than 2 hours as Ardmore sent 2 crews for the installation. They even came inside to vacuum any debris that might have fallen into the house during the installation. (5 out of 5). The installation of the storm doors was different. It took over 10 hours for 2 men to finish the installation which I felt was excessive and felt they didn't do the installation correctly. The difference between a good company and a better company is how well they fix a problem and to this point they are doing a better job. When I called to complain the scheduler immediately suggested they send out someone to inspect the work and within 3 days someone came out and fixed 2 out of the 3 problems and said someone would be calling me and ordering a replacement part to fix the 3rd problem"

"Gosh, where do I start? We had a complete James Hardie siding remodel, and on the one hand, Opal did a great job. But, dealing with their constant miscommunications and failures to uphold their end of the contract is just too much for one to handle. After investing just under $50k into this project, we were doing the final walk around there were some things that needed to be touched-up. When they came back to do the work, they treated us with such disrespect as if we were bothering them to adjust some things that the crew so clearly rushed on during the install. One crew member showed up to our house late in the evening, just before dark to install something and did not even call first. Then he knocked on the door and said: *Check* for the final payment. We were not tricky clients, and we were hardly ever around during the day. Towards the end, we got nothing but rudeness because they wanted us to accept what they did and not want everything to look like we were paying $50k. Opals staff will tell you things that are not true, cause a lot of frustration and try to hold you accountable for it. They will also mail your address on a flyer out to everyone in your surrounding neighborhood. So be prepared for strangers to be driving by - though they consider this as *marketing* - without your consent, of course. Would I recommend Opal? No. We are now getting quotes for windows/doors and a roof but with a different company - though Opal does all of this."

"I stumbled across the owner, James, of Ultimate Remodelers in a panic during the summer. It was during a weekend of heavy downfall and my wife discovered a small leak in our upstairs bedroom moments before leaving for the weekend. We called four roofing companies, all giving us at least 4 or 5 days wait time until they could help us. My call to James was completely different. He understood the amount of rain we were getting and came over right away to take a look at our roof. Even though we were not home, James found the cause for the leak, repaired it, and on his way down from the roof, decided to clear out my gutters. It was an unbelievable act of generosity that quickly earned future business. We then turned to Ultimate Remodelers to install a new front door and, much like our previous experience, everything was done professionally and timely. The door was installed in a day and James and his company went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy. Whether that was picking up the door themselves from Menards or responding quickly with texts, I knew that my satisfaction was their top priority. I grew up with my father always telling me to "have a guy" when it comes to home/car repairs. James from Ultimate Remodelers has earned the title of "my guy" and someone I completely trust, and you should too. He cares for his customers. He will give a fair price and the work will not disappoint!"

"Robert was extremely responsive and timely. We needed exterior lighting to all be upgraded/replaced before our new siding and soffits could be installed. We were on a tight timeframe. Robert came to give a quote a day after we spoke on the phone, and a week later the work was done. He did it all in about 6 hours. Robert also gave us a quote on some interior work, drywall/ceiling repair and some other things in our kitchen. We will be contacting him soon to schedule this work. We have finally found our do-it-all person. Knowledgeable and so polite. Highly recommend."

"George and his team were awesome. They showed up on time and worked hard to install an exterior door and two storm doors. They made quick work of what might have been a tricky job, but they were extremely thorough, even spent the last few minutes ensuring the storm door closed absolutely perfectly and quietly. Highly recommend George and his team for any work you need done. Very communicative, friendly, and hard working. "

"I had an excellent experience working with Mr. Garcia who completed tuckpointing and fixed some siding for me. From the start, their professionalism was evident. They kept me well-informed throughout the entire project, ensuring I understood each step of the process. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship were impressive, resulting in a job well done. The tuckpointing work was expertly executed, restoring the beauty and integrity of my homeâ s brickwork. Additionally, the siding repairs were seamlessly integrated, leaving my exterior looking flawless. I highly recommend this contractor for their reliability, communication, and outstanding workmanship. Itâ s reassuring to know there are professionals like them who take pride in their work and deliver exceptional results."

"Quote given by phone and appointment scheduled. Guys communicated by text in advance of arrival on appointment day. Arrived as promised and quickly fixed door. Very friendly interactions. Only strange thing was the repair person said the price was $130, but I had been quoted $80. When I pushed back, he immediately conceded to $80 price. Not sure what happened there, but glad it didn't turn into any conflict."

"HomeBuild recently completed my windows, siding ,and doors, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From the very first job site visit with Steve, the experience was unmatched compared to others companies. Steve was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to walk me through all the product lines that fit both my home and my budget. The pricing was very reasonable, and he clearly explained the advantages of choosing HomeBuild. Knowing they use their own team of installers was a huge plus for me. When the crew arrived,their trucks were professional branded,which immediately set them apart. The installers were polite,respectful, and made sure to carefully cover all my furniture and floors. After the job was done,my home was spotless- no debris left behind! This was a refreshing change from past experience with plumbers and electricians where I always ended up cleaning up afterwards. The siding crew maintained that same level of care throughout their work. Once the project was complete, Danielle from office called to make sure I was fully satisfied with the results.She also provided me with their service number in case I ever need assistance in the future. HomeBuild offers a fantastic labor warranty, and their entire team is as amazing as the owner, Steve. I’m thrilled with the outcome and excited to continue working with HomeBuild for my next and final project-my roof! Honestly, I wish I had more projects for them because working with HomeBuild is easy,affordable, and truly worth every penny. I highly recommend HomeBuild to everyone! Cheers, Magda K."

FAQs for doors (exterior) installation and replacement projects in Des Plaines, IL

Modern steel doors incorporate protective coatings and finishes that significantly reduce rust potential. These treatments create effective moisture barriers when properly maintained. Small scratches or damage should be promptly addressed with touch-up paint to prevent moisture from reaching the underlying metal. 

Doors in coastal or high-humidity environments benefit from additional protective measures and more frequent inspection. With proper care, most steel doors resist corrosion for decades.

Steel doors provide superior resistance against forced entry attempts compared to fiberglass alternatives. The inherent strength of steel creates a formidable barrier that resists impacts and tampering more effectively than composite materials. 

While high-quality fiberglass doors offer reasonable security, steel provides an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and structural integrity. For maximum protection, look for steel doors with reinforced strike plates and multi-point locking systems.

Most manufacturers provide warranties covering manufacturing defects for periods ranging from five to 15 years, depending on the product line and quality tier. Hardware components often carry separate warranty coverage, often for shorter durations. Installation services may include workmanship guarantees covering proper fitting and operation. Always review warranty documentation carefully to understand coverage limitations and maintenance requirements that might affect warranty validity.

Provided your existing wood frame remains structurally sound and properly aligned, professional installers can often adapt a steel door to fit. The process requires careful measurement and potentially minor modifications to accommodate the new door's specifications. The frame must provide adequate support for the heavier steel door construction. A qualified installer will evaluate your current frame's condition and recommend appropriate adjustments to ensure proper function and security.
