Would recommend RM Pena to everybody. Will surely do more business with them again when needed.

I called them and they told me the easiest way to get the screens to them. The 1st work day after I brought them the screens they called and said they were repaired and I could pick them up. When I got there they were ready for me. I asked how much I owed and I was told since I had purchased them there they do not charge for these repairs. I'm not sure if any other business/contractor provides such a great warranty but I do know that after 13 years I was extremely pleased that I had hired Pena for the original work and that they honored their customers by doing this! I would recommend them to anyone wanting to replace windows and doors.

It was clear he took a lot of pride in his work and he made sure the work was going to meet my needs, knowing I was 2500 miles away and eager to close on the house. I absolutely recommend!

Highly recommended.

I do not recommend TNZ Everything Experts or Theodore Biddle, aka TJ, Ted, Teddy. The first day I…read moremet him he told me he was a carpenter by trade. About a month later, he told me he couldn't cut a hole for a deadbolt, because the wooden door was "too old". I easily showed Teddy how to do so, on the very same door, which was actually relatively new. As my tenant, he quickly became a nuisance, texting at all hours. I couldn't meet his expectations. Ultimately, I decided not to renew his lease, because he kept pressing for permission to make unnecessary repairs, thereby reducing rental payments owed. For example, he complained about a supply line leak above the shower within the first week. He said he replaced "all the plumbing" at a gym in Cahoes. I declined his offer to remedy the issue; the drips of water were produced by condensation, not a leak. He said he handled housekeeping for various Airbnb units throughout upstate NY. As I'm an experienced Airbnb host of 7 units, this falsehood became abundantly clear. My experiences with Ted Biddle would be laughable, if not for fear of sinister intent. I'm worried for the safety of my 80 year old stepmother, who owns and resides in the property where Teddy is holding over in my 3rd floor apartment, with all of my furnishings, which I regrettably subleased to him. TJ tried to drive a wedge between my family and me, as if he were a super hero, while edging the lawn with a pair of scissors. Holdover Eviction Proceeding Index/Docket No. 1222-23.

While I'm usually the techy in our home, occasionally I get stumped and have to call in backup…read more Fortunately for me, I stumbled upon The Computer Mechanic in Schenectady! Before I get into it, let me give you some background... In my home, an annual trend has slowly formed with the simple phrase, "Something happened to my computer". It started with a pricey Macbook, where liquid was accidentally spilled onto the device. The Apple store happily offered a fix that cost nearly as much as a new computer -- which led to me purchasing a newer Macbook -- only to have the motherboard die 9 months later with another hefty $800+ fix. So now we have significantly less expensive, and oddly more powerful Chromebooks! Well the other day, the same chilling phrase echoed in my home, "Something happened to my computer". I researched and tried everything I could find online, positive that I was following the right directions, but to no avail. So I decided to seek outside help (!sacrilege!) and came upon The Computer Mechanic's Google Maps result and website. I filled out the online form, and within minutes, I had a short and to the point response. It was after hours, so the next day I hopped into my car and drove over. Being an 80's Nerd myself, the business was exactly what I had hoped it would be. Quiet, lots of computers and parts everywhere, a beautiful wall of old motherboards, and uncomfortably bright glow of several monitors. The guy behind the counter took the Chromebook and said, "when do you want it back by?" To which I replied, "when could it be done? I mean, I have no idea how long it will take." He said, "it shouldn't take too long", and it was late afternoon, so I suggested the following day. Then I confirmed that I provided my email and phone number on the webform and left. The next day, I emailed to check in, and they said it was read. I showed up, cracked a few jokes that didn't seem to land, swiped my Credit Card, and was out the door in minutes. In all honesty, these guys were really great and seemed to know what they were doing. They were even running their "Wipe & Reload for $60" special, so it cost practically nothing compared to places like Geek Squad. It's definitely a no-frills experience. But when you just want to get your computer back up and running, without being upsold on a bunch of garbage you don't need, this winds up being the absolute best type of experience one could hope for. And because it was so inexpensive, I can afford to go to The Computer Mechanic instead of wasting hours trying to figure it out myself. The next time I'll absolutely be back for my annual, "Something happened to my computer" pilgrimage.
