ServiceMagic.com Verified Rating for Doors (Exterior) - Install or Replace
JK, Lakeway, TX

Rating: 4.7

Reviews:
Mr Miller provides a professional on-time service and makes the extra effort to ensure the customer is informed of all the options, cost breakdowns and timetables. I had a custom external door replaced. Each time we set up appointments (for the quotation, for the actual work etc.) he was absolutely punctual. Why does the cable company have to tie you down with a 6 hour window when they have an army of technicians? They could learn a thing or two from Mr Miller. The job was completed to a high level of finish and all trash was removed. I wouldn't bother shopping around if I have future construction projects.

Overall, we had a good experience with Mastercrafts. Charlie was enjoyable to work with and the painters did a good job.

Lakeway, TX

Rating: 1

Reviews:
ZERO rating! Quick to respond to request. Promised delivery of new door in 2wks. started getting run-around, blamed Home Depot (gas prices prevented shipping less than full truck from Dallas). 4 wks still waiting, called owners out of state. They seemed great, but still no door. After 6wks, promised appt on 2 diff days, no call/no show on both. Contacted company again, excuses still, told them (Brent) was not allowed on my property; contacted Austin Better Business Bureau; contacted company owner again, finally, THEY SUBCONTRACTED the work out to another company who picked up my door Amer 1st Choice Ordered...He ordered the WRONG DOOR!
