Get matched with top new windows service pros in Hamden, CT

"Danny Rossa has it all together. He came to the house twice, once for rough measurements and a quote and again to get exact measurements. His windows are exactly what he said they would be. I've seen replacement windows that are more fancy and polished looking but these are very adequate and do the job very well. I have noticed a significant difference in comfort this winter. No drafts or air leaks. I'm sure, based on degree days, my heating bills will be lower this year . The two installers were amazing. They did 19 windows in one day including new exterior aluminum trim (which was part of the price). My only advice to the homeowner is to stay out of their way and don't ask too many questions. They have a routine and they don't want you getting in their way or slowing them down. They were here 10 hours and didn't even break for lunch. They did forget to clean a little saw dust out of my driveway but that is a minor issue compared to the value I received. If you decide to go with Finestra Rossa be sure you like the stock windows he sells. A bit of a price upgrade will get you windows that have a more formal appearance. In my case, I was looking for a high efficiency, well operating replacement window at a reasonable price. Finestra Rossa delivered."

"9/16/16 Signed contract to replace a bow window with 3 double-hung windows. 9/26/16 Technician takes inside/outside measurements. 11/9/16 Installers arrive. Job not completed due to defective/missing components. Installer and I reviewed work completed, I signed Zero Defect Form with installer notes, paid balance due, holding back 10% for work not completed. 11/10/16 Call from Rich Cavanaugh, CRM. I am disappointed project not completed. He said I would hear from Service in about 2 weeks. 12/1/2016 I called Service, left message, no call back. 12/2/2016 I called Service. Told me I should get a call next week to schedule. 1/3/17 I called Service and was told everything in. Will call back with date. 1/4/17 Call from Service with date. 1/16/17 Service tech arrives without all components to complete job. After a couple of phone calls and much discussion he goes to local lumber yard and buys what he needs to complete exterior work and installs it. Interior work must be delayed until a window sash is ordered. 1/16/17 I call Rich. I am disgusted. Why was I told all components were in? 1/17/17 Call from Rich. Window sash has been ordered. I will get a call from service when it is in. 1/20/17 Call from Service. Sash will be in on 2/3/17. Completion date set. 2/8/17 service tech arrives to install sash and replace damaged interior molding. All work completed, but just as tech is leaving the glass in the newly-installed window sash cracks. A new sash will need to be ordered. And so the saga continues. My comment is this: The windows are well-made, energy-efficient, and beautiful. The installers and service technicians are professional, skilled craftsmen and do excellent work. Service administration and scheduling is inefficient and unacceptable. Installation of 3 windows should not take three months! On a positive note, the 10% I held back was waived as compensation for my inconvenience. Not holding my breath for the new sash."

"Art did a fantastic job. On time, confirmed date ahead of time, called before he came. Met the estimate he had provided. Was very careful and I had no clean up to do. Used drop clothes, etc. He took his time and did ALL the work himself. He also identified a few things about the windows - e.g. broken pain and how the window could/couldn't be replaced; one bay window may have seal issues, etc. Helpful in preventing future problems. He also recommended actions I could take to protect my sun room windows in the wintrer. They are large and have no overhang protection from the elements. He is truly an expert in this area."

"Paul was very professional and was able to meet with us in early morning due to a difficult work schedule. His team was equally professional and worked together well; it was clear that he had had these guys working for him for a while. The new windows look great and they are obviously a lot more energy-efficient as well. I would happily hire PK Windows again."

"I had some roof leaks for a while as well as weakened plywood so finally bit the bullet and decided to take action for a new roof. I called four different roofers, all well reviewed in Angie’s List. Keith Gauvin was the only of the four I was able to talk to immediately. One of the others called the next day and the other two were never heard from. Keith gathered the information from me and sent his foreman, Jonathan, out to evaluate the job within a few hours. I indicated that I wanted to start as soon as possible and would appreciate a quick response regarding the estimate. Jonathan and I discussed where the plywood, shingles and dumpster would best be placed to minimize damage to the driveway and lawn. I believe it was the next day that said estimate was sent. I knew what my neighbors and relatives had paid for their roof replacements so had a rough idea of what I thought the price should be. Keith’s estimate was in the ballpark so I hired him. A portable bathroom was dropped off the day before work was to commence, a nice touch as I wondered where the workers would take care of such matters during the 10-11 hour workdays. I have a number of large, old shrubs around the house which I was anxious to protect. Jonathan, the aforementioned foreman, saw to it that large tarps hung from the roof to protect all shrubbery. They put blocks of wood under the dumpster in order to prevent damage to the driveway. Work began the first day on time at 7:30am. Communications from this point were with Jonathan, who clearly had successfully passed an Emily Post manners course which I’m sure was attended along with Mr. Gauvin as evidenced by the polite and expeditious communications I had with them. As the house is large with three stories and a double garage, it was a big job and took two days to complete. All existing shingles were torn off and a good amount of the roof had to be replaced with plywood. The five or six man crew worked very hard under the supervision of Jonathan. There was no damage to my shrubs; the tarp did its job. Their cleanup was excellent including picking up any nails and using a leaf blower for pieces of shingles and wood. The job was completed late on a Saturday; the dumpster and portable bathroom were removed on Monday. The next day, I noticed a wooden brace for one of my garage planters was gone. After notifying Mr. Gauvin, Jonathan came over, took measurements and returned at another time to replace it. During a heavy rainstorm a few weeks after the job, I checked for leaks in the attic. It was dry as a desert. Excellent job!"

"We would highly recommend David and his team to anyone. We are very happy with the quality of the windows and the service was exceptional. Smitty and Jason installed the windows and did a phenomenal job. A-1 Windows & Doors is a great company and we are very happy customers. It was a pleasure working with David and his team."

"Chris was responsive, professional, and explained in detail the work that needed to be done. He was flexible in accommodating scheduling changes and he and his crew did a fantastic job replacing my roof. Would hire again."

"Workers arrived on time and did an excellent job. They were extremely professional and hard workers, area was cleaned after the job was done. I will recommend them to anyone who is looking to get repairs done to gutters, or like me get new gutters to replace storm wrecked gutters."

"Justin responded promptly to my message and was on-site within 24 hours. He started the repair the following morning and completed it in stages (installation, filing, sanding, finishing ....) over the course of the day. Since it is a popcorn ceiling, he was also realistic about the probable success of painting/blending the repaired area with original paint job. He could have done his best and charged me - possibly still resulting in the whole ceiling being painted (that part of my ceiling runs the full length of the house across 3 living areas). He was honest and didn't want to take the chance. Would definitely use again and would recommend."

"We are very happy with the result. John Russell was a pleasure to work with from the initial interview through a sometimes unexpected build to the final inspection. There were problems with delivery of materials (specifically the bathtub) but John cheerfully worked with us and helped us get through the delay. Whenever something unexpected came up, he solved the problem. And even with the issues the project was completed on time and is of high quality. We are very happy with the final result and would recommend Russell Construction to anyone who has a project and wants excellent work."
