We make a list at the beginning of the year of things we want to improve around the house. We did very little in 2020, so we had a bigger list than normal for 2021. All the main jobs required bringing in outside services and/or involved contact with workmen, so naturally we were nervous about this due to the covid.
One job we did in April was put a new insert into our front door. We knew this could be achieved with very minimal contact and the company we hired to do this job turned out to be a super company to deal with. This is the before photo of our front door:
There was plastic on the top part of the door because it was Spring and the robins were determined to build a nest on the ledge above my door. I was equally determined that they didn'tš
The company that we dealt with is called Distinctive Glass Inserts and the owner's name is Grayson and a very pleasant man he was/is. He does business in a wide area of Southern Ontario.
We chose the Ashbourne insert. Not too fancy, but gives us plenty of privacy, while letting in a lot of light.
We get a lot more light in our front hallway. It only took a couple of hours to change both pieces of glass. It wasn't too expensive and has made a lot of difference.
