Dec 2018

12/20/2018 We were at our wits end after reading, taking notes and researching what would be best for our "near the water" location for 6 exterior doors on our new construction. We are writing this review because we unexpectedly stopped in the Design Center yesterday to see samples on display for the Therma-Tru doors on our contractor's order. We had dozens of questions about keeping cost down and the more than 8 pages of bulleted configuration options with so much unfamiliar terminology about everything from weather strips, rough openings, multipoint locks, finishes, frames, astragals, ultra jambs, on-guard sills, plates, composites, PVC, insulation, materials, slabs, face bores, hardware and that's only part of it! We had visited the Little Silver store earlier in the day and met Johnny P, one of the sales people there. He was so helpful and pleasant and I told him as a retired teacher, I give him an A+ for great service and superior patience. In the past we were told also that Builders Gen'l had a Long Branch location nearby which was a design center and had lots of samples of the products we were asking about.... so we drove there again and this time spent a lot of time with the manager, Gabriel I. Well, we were thrilled at his willingness to review every item we had a question about. He was so polite and patient with all our inquiries and went way beyond what we ever could have expected. After an hour or two that went by quickly, my husband & I left feeling that we had hit the jackpot! Gabriel was so understanding, knowledgeable and practical. He actually listened to our concerns and immediately gave us new options to consider and warned us which options would cost more or less hopefully in the long run. Exactly what we needed! My husband and I rarely write reviews because life is so busy with a big family, 6 grandsons and building a new home, but this was an opportunity for KUDOS that could not be missed. Our son Nick always recommended Builders General for any of our renovations and projects, and now at this point in our lives with a huge retirement project at hand, we wanted to say WOO HOO.... this is as good as it gets for sure. Merry Christmas to all at Builders Gen'l! J & A Poruchynsky
