What we DON’T do (we’ll refer you)

🪟Glass replacement

Broken glass panes need a glazier with the right safety equipment and glass cutting tools. We’ll refer you to a trusted local partner.

🏗️New window/door installs (cut new openings)

If you’re cutting a new opening in a wall to add a window or door, that needs a contractor with permits. We do replacements in existing openings; new openings need on-site estimate.

🪜Anything above 2 ladder steps

Upper-story window work, 2nd-story door repairs — for crew safety we don’t use tall ladders.

Need any of these? We’ll connect you with a trusted specialist partner.

FAQ

Common questions

My door sticks at the top — can you fix it?

Yes — usually it’s either a loose hinge, a settled jamb, or paint buildup. We diagnose on-site and fix in the same visit. Most door-sticking jobs take an hour or less.

Can you install smart locks?

Yes — we install smart locks, video doorbells, and connected hardware on existing doors. You provide the device; we handle the install and basic setup.

My window screen has a hole — do you re-screen?

Yes — we re-screen aluminum or vinyl-framed window screens. About $150 per screen including the screen material. Bigger jobs (re-screening a whole house) get a bundle discount.

Can you replace broken window glass?

No — broken glass requires a specialty glazier with cutting equipment and safety gear. We’ll refer you to a trusted local partner.

Do you install brand-new doors in new locations?

Replacing an existing door: yes. Cutting a brand-new opening in a wall and framing it for a door: no — that needs a licensed contractor with permits. We can do the door install once the framing is done.
