Door Installation — Austin Lake Hills, Austin, TX
Mi · Entry Door
Cupcake replaced 14 windows and my front door. Every detail on the install was discussed during the initial consultation and throughout the ordering process. They advised on different window styles that matched the house (we switched out some sash windows for picture windows and frosted the glass in the bathroom).
Their “no payment until complete” concept was super attractive to me since I have been burned by contractors before.
The quality of the workmanship was exemplary and communication by the project manager and cupcake team along the way was outstanding!
The original single front door was replaced with one that had sidelights, so the opening need to be widened and that meant a new larger header along with additional jack studs, followed by a new threshold step, new exterior stone work, new interior drywall, baseboard, texture, and paint. Oh and the light switch and outside light both needed to be moved. So not an easy project.
We did have one challenge with door trim that came damaged from the factory, that was nothing to do with Cupcake, but they sorted it out. it cost them a delay in payment but they took it in their stride.
All in all, I couldn’t be happier with the project and outcome! I will go to them first for future household projects!

Cupcake Home Improvements

- Honest people and did a great job.
-
- We cannot say enough about our whole process with Cupcake. … More I found them at a home improvement show where I connected with several companies. Cupcake wasn't the least expensive but their no-pressure approach was a big selling-point with us. They gave us all the time we needed to make our final decision.
We initially planned on just replacing 3 doors but then decided to also replace 13 windows. The job was planned for 3 days and completed in 2-1/2. They were punctual, professional, courteous, very tidy and extremely pleasant to work with.
During the whole process, we were constantly updated on the manufacturing status of the new doors and windows. At any point, if we had questions or concerns, they were simply a text or call away.
If you're thinking of new doors or windows or need your roof worked on, we highly recommend consulting with Cupcake!! - Our experience with Cupcake was great, and ours was … More a big job! Cupcake replaced windows, doors, and siding; added gutters; and painted the whole place. Matt Koger was exceptionally patient with us while we worked out several estimates involving four different crews. Our project manager Cory was on top of everything from start to finish and was very responsive when we had questions or requests. The crews were professional, efficient, tidy, and pleasant to work with. It's also important to note that the timeline met our expectations. We couldn't be happier with the people we encountered at each phase and the quality work they delivered.
- All around great service, quality windows and easy … More install.
- I got my Pella replacement windows installed by Cupcake … More Home Improvement, the new windows looks great and thanks for Jonathan showed me how to submit the Windows Spec for my HOA approval, also Kenny help make sure everything look good after the installation, I would definitely recommend them to anyone I know for their home improvement needed.
