Grand Entrances

Casa Azul esta vivo! Process: We worked with Cesar and his team in designing the perfect door for our remodel. Cesar knows his trade well and gave us wonderful advice that we took in designing our entry door. Door - Amazing craftsmanship - Yes you pay for what you get. The attention to detail is amazing - this will increase the value of our home. Installation - Honestly, we got a quote from a third party Grand Entrances recommended and it just 'seemed' high. We were doing a complete remodel and had a bid from our General Contractor (GC) that was 1/2 the cost. I shared this with Cesar and he asked me one question that changed my mind. He asked if any of the doors my GC had installed moved by themselves? If you open a door 45 degrees it should stay at 45 degrees. So I wandered around the house where we had 20 interior doors installed and several of them...."moved by themselves". Over the week I took to decide each time I would walk in and out of doors I noticed movement and it frustrated me. Once the door is in, there isn't much you can do to replum it. We decided to use Marco for our installation and couldn't be happier. When you invest in the quality of a custom door which will change the entrance of your home, we felt it was best not to 'cheap' out. I worked from home for the 2 days that Marco was doing the install. I watched his attention to detail and was impressed. There was one squeak in the hinge and it drove him crazy. Frankly, I would have been fine, we have a ton of squeaks in the house but Marco solved it before he left. No, he didnt use WD-40. I'm a fan of the whole experience.
