"Our white doors are made of steel and ugly rust spots were showing through the paint. Once the work began, we discovered that the original owners had covered the rust with paint so the job had become much more complex. Carl had to strip both coats of paint off, take out the rust and repaint the two doors. Carl worked almost the entire day and did an excellent job. He has a great deal of knowledge and skill and was very pleasant to work with. The doors now look like new and we would hire Carl again for any type of construction work.

Update:
Less than an year passed and rust spots began to appear on the doors. I called Carl and he was disappointed that the paint job had not kept the rust out. Carl had expanded his business and now he is a "Construction Specialist and a Licensed Home Inspector and he had quite a full schedule. Nevertheless, Carl said he wanted his customers to be happy so he agreed to return and take care of the problem at no charge.  Both of us had conflicting schedules and weather interrupted some dates so he did not return until April 16, 2016.  He brought a can of rust spray and a can of paint spray . Carl spent the morning treating the rust spots. Then he told my husband to leave the doors dry overnight and then cover them with the paint the following day. We paid him $14 for the 2 cans he left behind and the next day my husband sprayed the doors and now they look like new. We are so happy we hired someone with integrity and not a painter who would refuse to stand behind his work. I stand by my A ratings for Carl.

"After getting quotes from a few different companies, we chose Tad Newman and his exceptional people. We had all the openings of our 30 year old home replaced with PGT vinyl impact, plus a double front and a back door. 22 openings. This includes a triple opening of french door and lights, and two other french doors. I will always remember Tad's comment while he was finalizing the planning at our house, "if you liked the buying process, you'll love our people". Very true. His teams do excellent work, with great attention to detail, and were very easy to live with. A very important aspect considering the scale of the job. Quality products, great installation and wonderful prices."

"quality is always excellent. Delivery has always been on time. this is the third time I have used Arkansas wood door"

"Installers arrived on the designated day, seemed experienced and went right to work. I had to be away for a few days, so I missed the completion. When I returned my wife said the installers had put everything up, cleaned up, showed her how to operate the accordions, the inspector had inspected, the inspection report had been received and filed. I wanted to see the report so I got it out and it said we had failed; my wife hadn't read it. I called Gulfstream and they didn't know we had failed. The report said fasteners for the panel tracks on the arched windows had to be "6 inches oc maximum spacing." I was disappointed because I believed Gulfstream should have known this. The installers came back a day later and concluded that all they could do was put another fastener between each existing fastener, which would, unfortunately, double the number of fasteners. A few days later another inspector came. By the time I saw him he had completed the entire inspection again; he had been unaware we had been inspected before and failed. He pointed to all the fasteners on the arched window tracks and said he had never seen anything like that before, it was silly, unnecessary and probably weakened the structure as much as it secured the panel tracks. Apparently the rules are subject to individual interpretation.
 Later, because we planned to be away for a few weeks, I believed it a good idea to close all shutters, just in case a storm arose. I got out all the instructions Gulfstream had given me and went to work. I noticed what I thought were a lot of nicks and scratches on the accordions, so I called Gulfstream. The woman who answered assured me that was normal because their weight and unwieldiness made them awkward for installers to handle. She offered to send someone over, but I accepted her explanation: they're all aluminum, so not a big deal. While installing the removable base tracks for the doors' accordions, I noticed that some of the anchors were so deep in the concrete that only a few groves of the bolts engaged. The installers and inspectors must not have been concerned, so at some point I'll buy some longer bolts, if I can find them, just to ease my mind.
All the accordions closed nicely, but installing the panels was hard work. If I had this to do over, I would try harder to overcome my wife's objections to accordions on the bay windows on the back of the house, because schlepping the panels back there is more work than it seems. All the panels were numbered and fit nicely until the last four: they were too long, and no way would they fit. I called Gulfstream and they sent a man over that afternoon. He said the panels should fit because they were all the same length, but he couldn't get them in either: the track dipped a fraction. He cut an eighth of an inch off each panel, and they slid right in. So, closing everything up took me the better part of two days and a fair amount of sweat. I'll need help if I ever have to do this in a hurry, but at least I know now that everything fits..
I'd say Gulfstream did as good a job as anyone could expect. They certainly responded promptly each time I called. They did everything they promised.

"Luke was a gift! I moved from Colorado into a new home in Prattville, walked in the door and immediately realized I couldn’t live with the existing DIY paint job. I called Luke’s Painting, their estimate was $1400.00 less than their competitors, he started painting two days later. Luke was professional, honest, hard working and always cognizant of the fact that I was working from home while he was painting. The finished product is amazing, a realtor commented on how clean the lines are. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Luke’s Painting!"

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."
