Project of the Month - January 2013 - EL PORTAL

CASON'S RESIDENCE 
Corner Windows are great to really open up a 
space to allow lots of natural light into your home. 

Last January, We, ASP Windows and Doors completed the  installation of CWS Energy Efficient and Impact Rated Windows and Doors.  We were very excited about working in historic El Portal residential community because we really love the character and beauty of these homes.  We knew that this job would come with certain complications because of our experience with older buildings so we saw another opportunity to show our superior talents and professionalism. We showed our clients just that! Our attention to detail and expertise proved to be above and beyond our client's expectations. We were able to complete the installation with minimal damage to the existing architecture and we preserved the original character of the home.  But don't take our word for it. Here is what our clients have to say about the experience.

 "Our house was built in 1938 and is located in a designated Historic District.  All of the windows and doors were original.  We replaced all exterior windows and doors with hurricane/impact resistant door/windows.  After obtaining another estimate, we signed a contract with American Storm Protection Corp. ("ASP") based on the incredibly professional presentation that President Jonathan Rodriguez gave.  He arrived at our house with samples, a estimated floor plan diagram, and his iPad and spent a few hours discussing our needs, likes and dislikes and giving suggestions about what would work in our home. "  Client

Picture Window with Grids. - We can design just about any grid configuration.
   "Of course, "project creep" came into play and we later chose to expand our initial contract to include every window.  Jonathan and his team were helpful every step of the way and never complained about the changes! " Client
French Doors and Windows
"I was particularly impressed (and grateful) with Jonathan's assistance in dealing with the Historical Board.  He arrived for the director's initial inspection of our home,  supported our decisions to update (and secure) the house and proposed changes which the Historical Board would approve (since they simply don't make windows today like they did in 1938).  He was instrumental in reaching an agreement with the Historical Board that day and satisfying its requirements Without the need to appear at a public hearing!  The new windows and doors look beautiful and the house still has that period charm.  Definitely a win win for everyone." Client
We go above and beyond the call of duty!
"The actual installation was easier than I expected - considering they ripped every door and window out.  I'm afraid the job was bit difficult, since the window frames were steel and covered with years of stucco.  I still can't believe how careful the crew was.  They picked up broken glass and stucco outside and even cleaned the top layer of concrete dust from the work area.  They even cleaned years of grime off the old Cuban tile  window sills before reinstallation!   Quite honestly, I assumed the old sills would be broken apart in the process and would have to be replaced. -- that was not the case.  They even re-hung the 2 blinds they had to remove.  I'd call that above and beyond the call of duty for sure.  Best of all, they were a pleasure to deal with." Client
Beautiful, Safe, and Energy Efficient! What more could you ask for?
ASP Windows and Doors continues to grow and demonstrate superior quality and service in the Impact Window and Door market.  Our dedication to performance, quality, and professionalism shows in every one of our projects whether they're big or small. We invite you to visit one of our projects or visit us at our beautiful showroom in Doral next to the Dolphin Mall.

Thank you for taking the time to read our blog posts and to take a look at our recent project we are so proud of.  Breath deeply, Live happily, Laugh hard, Love passionately, Recycle

Park Plaza Apartments - Miami Beach

Picture Windows, Sliding Glass Doors, and Exterior Glass Partitions
 "There is definitely something to be said for a company that can successfully work in Historic
Miami Beach, FL. There is nothing simple about matching mullion designs, colors, and glass with photos of how the structures originally appeared in the late 1940's when they were erected. There is nothing easy about replicating privacy partitions on balconies either. ASP was able to do all of this for my project and I am happy to endorse this window subcontractor."  Client

Colored Pane Windows, Picture Windows, Horizontal Sliders, and French Door
 I gave ASP the opportunity to put a complete price package together to include all permitting, engineering, drafting, material, installation, and warranty. I was pleased to receive the package and we were quickly underway. Client
French Door, Sliding Glass Door, Exterior Glass Partitions
 "Not only did ASP complete the new install work at the three above referenced addresses, I have
also relied upon them for "corrective glazing" and a multitude of punch items left by previous
contractors on a 5 story condo (2155 Washington Court) and a 6 story condo (2100 Park Ave) which I am also responsible for." Client
Sliding Glass Doors and Exterior Glass Partitions 
This project consisted of the coordination and installation of TM Florida's Best products for a 2 story multi-unit residential building complex. The inventory of products consisted of  41 Single Hung, 11 Picture, and 3 Horizontal Sliding Impact Windows, 8 French Doors and 8 Sliding Glass Doors, and 16 Exterior Glass Partitions.

The East Coast Braces for Hurricane Earl

 It could hit the Northern East Coast of United States.

Hurricane Earl Threatens Caribbean

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Filed at 8:06 a.m. ET

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) -- Hurricane Earl lashed the northeastern Caribbean with heavy rain and strong winds Monday, causing flooding in parts of the low-lying Leeward Islands and emptying the streets and beaches as people waited out the storm.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said Earl, which formed on Sunday, already had sustained winds of 110 mph (175 kph) and was likely to keep growing.

''It is possible that Earl could become a Category 4 hurricane as we get into the middle to late portions of the week,'' hurricane center specialist Michael Brennan said. Category 4 storms have sustained winds of at least 131 mph (210 kph).

The storm's forecast track would carry its center north of the Caribbean, then forecasters say it is likely to bend to the north, moving roughly parallel to the U.S. East Coast.

Hurricane warnings were in effect for Antigua, Barbuda, Montserrat, St. Kitts, Nevis, Anguilla, St. Martin, St. Barthelemy, St. Maarten, Saba, St. Eustatius, the British Virgin Islands and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

In Antigua, powerful wind and rain destroyed at least one home and at least eight people had to be evacuated, though there were no reports of critical injuries. Local weather authorities reported at least 5 inches (13 centimeters) of rain and 10-foot (3-meter) waves.

In St. Maarten, the storm toppled trees and knocked out electricity to much of the island but there were no reports of serious damage. Heavy gusts of wind swirled debris across streets that were empty due to a government-imposed curfew.

Early Monday, Earl was about 25 miles (40 kilometers) north-northeast of St. Martin and headed west-northwest at 14 mph (22 kph), according to the center in Miami. Hurricane-force winds extended outward up to 50 miles (85 kilometers) from its center.

Earl has grown rapidly in strength, fueled by warm ocean temperatures of 86 F (30 C).

Earl could bring battering waves and storm surges of up to four feet (1.2 meters) above normal on some islands, as well as downpours that threaten to unleash flash floods and mudslides.

Forecasters say there is a chance the hurricane could brush the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region toward the end of the week, with its closest approach to North Carolina on Friday.

In any case, the U.S. East Coast is likely to see pounding surf.

''Folks from the Carolinas northward through the Mid-Atlantic and New England need to be paying attention to Earl and the forecasts as they get updated through the week,'' Brennan said.

Meanwhile, the Category 1 Hurricane Danielle was weakening far out over the north Atlantic.
