What recent reviews say

Five of seven reviewers praised fast service and professional installation, with one noting Derek's honest approach to repair assessment. A single one-star review flagged a spring replacement charge of $950, roughly double the typical $350-$400 market rate.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Crews arrive punctually, finish on schedule and within budget, and keep job sites spotless. Project managers like Elson and Elden communicate through texts, emails, and daily updates; crews including Tony, Josh, Dan, Rob, Matt, and Aiden work efficiently and know their trades. Two reviewers flagged unresolved warranty issues and past installation oversights (soffit height blocking door function, buried window screws), yet the dominant pattern across 43 five-star reviews highlights consistent professionalism and careful attention to finishing work and customer satisfaction. DKI-TIL-KA operates across doors, windows, siding, eavestroughs, and garage builds over 30 years. Elson managed a well-documented garage build praised for planning and crew coordination. Storm door, window replacement, and kitchen renovation projects earned repeated praise for fair pricing, rotten wood repairs at no charge, and disaster recovery work (flood damage removal, drying, rebuild coordination with insurance). Two one-star reviews raised concerns about builder qualifications and legal responses to defect claims.
