Family owned in Cedar Falls since 1962 · Two stores · One service bench
Aisle 8 & the back bench · Main Street
The bench Earl built in 1962 still re-screens two hundred windows a summer.
Drafty doors, torn screens, sticky locks: this aisle and the back bench handle most of them. We cut glass to size, re-key locks so one key opens every door, and sell the weatherstripping that keeps January outside.

Service bench · Main Street
Lou runs the back bench Earl built: screens, lamp rewiring, re-keying and glass. He'll show you how he did the fix if you ask, and he'll probably show you anyway.
