"They were really easy to work with. They talked me through different options and answered my endless questions.  They were flexible in scheduling my installation.  The installation was challenging, so they sent out some extra people to help. They were done on time, and cleaned up quickly.  They answered my questions and addressed some minor concerns post installation.    Their prices were competitive with other companies in the area. I chose them because they were the easiest to deal with <br />"

"the job went well and the results are quite satisfactory. wayne and the crew were highly professional and pleasant to work with. they had to remove the old, narrow side porch and save as many of the clay tiles as possible for reuse. the construction was well planned and executed. there was easy communication with wayne and his associates and in general, there was consultation with us. the only quibble we had was that in a few instances wayne made some decisions without consulting with us. for example, some of the materials used (metal sheathing vs. exposed wood) were decided by wayne without our input. as it turned out, we are satisfied with the look and feel of the porch, so his decision did not cause problems, but we might have chosen otherwise, if presented with chhoices. in the future, i would pay closer attention to such details and request options. another problem we ran into, not wayne's fault, was that we ended up short on the number of clay tiles. these were of an old vintage, and wayne had great difficulty in finding suitable replacements. this search went on for close to a year, until wayne fabricated the missing tiles from residual tile fragments. this part of the project was not resolved when the porch was done, and we got quite frustrated calling wayne repeatedly to finish the job (it WAS finished, except for the missing tiles, and we were enjoying the new porch). over all, i would use wayne's services again and would recommend him to others."

"Mr. Baker answered the phone the first time I called.  I did not have to leave a message and wait for someone to call me back.  He was very flexible with scheduling the estimate for a time that was convenient for me.  He came out at 8 am on a Saturday morning looked at the issue and immediately provided me with the estimate.  The work was then completed the following Wednesday, which was within four days of giving the estimate.  Did not have to wait a week or two to get the job done. <br /> With the help of an assistant, he took out the door and releveled the opening so that the door would close and lock properly.  This require the removal of some siding from the house as well as a little bit of the interior molding.  After the door was reinstalled, he spent a lot of time adjusting it to make sure the door closed securely.  It is now working better than before I had the issue.  The entire job took about 3 hours. <br />"

"We had been to their location twice to check out soapstone and look at their selection. As we got closer to the start date for our project, we called Joe two or three times to try to get a sense as to when would be the best time to come pick out an actual slab for our counters. He was never clear with us as to when would be the best time to come (e.g. he couldn't tell us when he would receive his next delivery of slabs). What was problematic for us was that he had said (in two separate phone calls two weeks apart from each other) that we should contact him in "another couple weeks." Then, when we called him most recently, he informed us that his shipment had arrived a few weeks prior and he only had a few slabs left. We would have greatly appreciated him calling us to inform us when the slabs arrived. We decided not to go with this company. While his prices were competitive, we decided to go with a competitor due to the fact that Joe attempted to raise the price by $10/sq.ft. at the last minute due to the fact that he had sold out of the product we were interested in. He had also seemed overly concerned that an initial phone call from our designer would somehow reduce his overall compensation for the job, despite her assurance that she was calling to simply confirm pricing information. Overall, we found Joe to be somewhat challenging to work with. The soapstone product itself is beautiful."

FAQs for door or window screens install or repair projects in Townsend, DE

Most off-the-shelf screens come in fixed sizes, ranging from 18 inches by 20 inches to 36 inches by 74 inches, which fit the vast majority of residential windows. If your opening falls outside that range or has a unique shape, you’ll need a custom screen built to the exact measurements. Going custom ensures a secure fit, a solid barrier against bugs, and a clean, finished look.

The decision to repair or replace your screen depends on the extent of the damage. Small holes or tears in otherwise solid mesh can be patched, and a sturdy frame usually doesn’t need to go anywhere. However, once the frame is bent or the mesh is brittle and fraying in several spots, replacement becomes a more sensible option—and often proves to be less costly in the long run. Take a close look at both parts before making a decision.

To rescreen a window, start by prying out the old spline, then lift the torn mesh from the frame. Lay the new screen over the frame, allowing about an inch of excess on all sides, and hold it in place while pressing fresh spline into the groove with a roller. Check that the mesh is taut—many pros rest a small brick on it while they work—then trim the overhang with a utility knife.

Most window screens last for 10 to 12 years. Time, sun, and weather gradually make the mesh brittle, so you’ll start to see sagging, rips, or thinning spots that let bugs get through. Check the screens each season; if the mesh crumbles or the frame warps, it’s time to replace them to keep air flowing and pests outside.

Most pros can swap out a screen in 10 minutes to an hour. A quick pop‑in replacement goes fastest, while fitting new mesh into an existing frame or working on a hard‑to‑reach upper window adds time. Either way, plan for at least a few extra minutes per screen so the installer can verify the fit and ensure the spline is seated correctly.
