Entrance doors, garage door, siding, railing

I highly recommend Albern! I had initially signed a contract with a large windows and doors company. The same day, Paul from Albern returned my call and asked me to allow him to come by and show me what his company could offer me, with no pressure to change my mind. Thank goodness Paul came by. In the end, the price wasn't much different, but the small details sure were. The other company suggested I go to Home Depot and buy the locksets for the doors and their installer would install them. As Paul pointed out, it would be my problem if something went wrong. There would be no warranty, except the one from the manufacturer. I had ordered a burgundy front door, and little did I know that the caulking that the other company"s installer would use would be white, not burgundy to match the door. I had also ordered a back entry door as well as a screen door for the back. Paul suggested a steel door with a window that also included a screen. It would allow the air in, allow for privacy, and there would be no need for a acreen door, which would hide the beauty of the door. Because the landing area inside my back door is small, Paul suggested that the door open out. What a terrific idea. There are many more cosmetic details that Paul included that the other company didn't even mention. With Paul's help, I cancelled my contract with the other company and went with Albern. Albern installed 3 entry doors, a garage door and opener, siding on the front of the house, and a railing on my front porch. Everything was installed over 3 days, the installations were very well coordinated, and the installers were terrific. I have only positive things to say about my entire experience with Albern, and I am extremely happy. Paul came by later to take pictures and to make sure that I was completely satisfied with the job they had done. Paul even threw in screens for my basement windows at no charge. My parents were so impressed that they ordered doors from Albern. When their doors were installed, neighbours came down to have a look. About a year ago, the neighbours had new doors installed by "my other company." The first thing the neighbours said was "___ didn't offer me anything like that." They had wished they had seen what Albern had done before they had purchased from the other company. I highly recommend Albern and I would not hesitate to use them again. A wonderful family owned company and everyone made me feel that my happiness and satsfaction was of upmost importance to them. This is certainly difficult to find in this day and age. A definite 10+.
