"I purchased 14 windows from NEXT Door and Windows in October 2022, and they were installed on 6/30/23. Several problems make me want to never use this company again: 1. Two large windows (double hung) in my dining room were measured incorrectly (despite two separate measurements being performed), and these were not replaced on the original installation day. These needed to be re-ordered, and then a second installation date (9/2/23) was required 8 weeks later. 2. The bathroom window was supposed to be a new opaque window. The sales person mentioned that the new window would only allow a form to be seen, but that details would not be visible. However, after the bathroom window was installed, I noticed that details could be clearly seen from the outside. This window (now very transparent) makes the bathroom not usable unless I have the window covered completely. This was unacceptable for a new window that was supposed to provide privacy. The service team needed to return on 7/29/23 to perform work on this window to make it more opaque. 3. During the installation day, the installation team was asking me if I wanted the frames to be “picture frame” or if I wanted to keep the original style of the frame of the windows. In addition, the installation team wanted to know whether the outside color of the windows should be white or beige. This was concerning because I went over this in great detail with the sales team. This lack of communication worried me about the quality of the communication of NEXT’s teams. 4. Blinds were supposed to be re-installed after the windows were installed (according to my contract). However, there was a change in the dimensions of several windows: a picture window bookended by two double hung windows were changed to a picture window bookended by two casement windows. Since the dimensions of these windows have changed, I can no longer use the old blinds—I will need to order new blinds to fit these windows. This was not discussed during the sale of the windows. In addition, the old blinds were not installed. The sales manager mentioned that I was charged for this re-installation (since it was in my contract); however, no attempt was made to credit me after I brought this up several times. 5. On 7/1/23 the service manager came to inspect the problems with the windows, and he discovered that one double hung window that was installed was very difficult to open. This required a separate visit from the service team (7/29/23) to perform work on the window so that it could open smoothly. Despite these problems, it took multiple phone calls and sending pictures to the leadership of NEXT Door and Windows to convince them that there were problems. The transparent bathroom window concerns were initially dismissed since “everyone orders that window for the bathroom.” It took a photo before they agreed that there was a problem. Marvin windows are great; however, the hassle and frustrations of working with NEXT make me want to never use this company again. My window installation required 4 visits (6/30, 7/1, 7/29, and 9/2) to have windows installed that were working correctly. Despite this hassle, NEXT offered 2% discount on windows, and seemed to value their own profits over customer experience. I recommend going to [*** Link removed ***] and finding a local company with more skill in communication, installation, and professionalism. It would be worth this effort to avoid the hassle and frustration that come with an installation from NEXT."

Wood stairs and railings repairs FAQs

Hiring a professional to refinish your wood stairs costs an average of 20% to 30% of the total project cost. While this adds to your budget, it's essential for preserving your staircase's integrity and safety. A certified expert can complete refinishing a 10-tread staircase in about two hours, providing a flawless finish that boosts your home's appeal and value.

The time it takes to refinish stairs depends on whether you do it yourself or hire a professional. A professional team can finish the core work in approximately two hours, while a DIY project may take up to a week due to careful sanding, drying, and sealing. Hiring a pro ensures the job is done efficiently and with high-quality results.
