They were professional, always on time, and very hard working.Casey was very helpful with our selections due to his knowledgeand experience.I believe Michon has done about 7 houses on our block in the past few years and they all look great, also I have heard no complaints and only praise for their work.I would highly recommend them.Service: Window installation“

“This is a few years late but I did want to hold out and see how well the windows and sliding door performed during the winter / summer.Well, they're performing great. Prior to my house had an old single pane with storm window setup. The biggest problem was actually just not being able to open them all up as my house was a foreclosure and the company they hired painted over everything and I do mean everything. I scraped away what I could and got the windows to open a reasonable amount. Anyway, the breaking point was over time the expansion contraction made some cracks massive, caused breaks, etc and I had ran out of leftover panes and parts the previous homeowner had lying around in the shed.The whole ordeal was great with one side mention which I'll cover around the end and perhaps Phil can speak to it as well. But Phil was great, clear explanations and would always check in on and explain any questions we had.Installation was supposed to be two days but winter was coming in soon. Not sure if the installers were making good time and wanted to get it out of the way or if they didn't want me to deal with a cold house. Either way, they got it done in one day, one very long day. It was cold outside I told them they could have their lunch inside, they politely refused. After finishing their lunch they thanked me for the offer and then explained that if they did that, they would get acclimated and then when they go back out to work it would not be comfortable. I actually know that to be 100% true so told them I get it.Anyway at any questionable point the installers grabbed me and told me what was going on, what my options were, possible issues, etc. Most of these were actually pretty minor, but this told me the Varco installers cared enough about their work and my approval to loop me in. Good stuff.There were only two items which were a larger issue both had the same issue. The old windows were very old and over time water crept in and caused wood rot at the sill. Also I don't think the original installed used pressure treated wood, or it was that old, which is standard where wood meets concrete/brick/stone/etc. The sill still gets wrapped around with vinyl on the exterior side, the actual structure didn't have rot.The installers still wanted to let me know about this which was good to know but as they had solid structure and showed me, I was okay with them proceeding. By the way, that was a remnant of old construction, new construction doesn't even have that bit as we've come a long way with energy efficiency. They removed all the rot they could and continued on with the job.There was a concern that something broke offloading from shipping. Phil and I were concerned, Phil not so much, he had an idea it was a flange but wasn't 100% sure what it was. He called and found out they shipped the sliding door with a nailing flange for some reason or another. At my house, it's surrounded by brick and on concrete, a nailing flange isn't needed ... or going to work - unless you want an ugly sliding door installation.Now here's the side mention. Des Plaines follows the IRC (International Residential Code) and the IRC is applicable for all single / double family homes. Then there's mentions by the Illinois State Fire Marshall and the NFPA (Nat'l Fire Protection Association). It says you want an egress with a minimum opening of basically 5.7 feet squared in any living area when the primary means of exit is not accessible. I won't bore you with the minimum height and window requirements as there's more to this which I hope Phil and or someone at Varco can explain.I had several quotes of which I believe two mentioned egress rules and presented me with vertical sliding windows which would meet egress. I mentioned this to Phil and he said he could do vertical but that means something else. I didn't quite get it then, I still don't get it, but I wanted horizontal windows as my in-window fans and AC are built for horizontal windows, not vertical.So I didn't“

“Shamil and his team are who you call when you want your windows repaired and not simply replaced (like most other window businesses insist on). We have an older home with large Pella window panels installed in 1988. One of our fixed windows had rot on the bottom frame, causing the outer glass to slip down about an inch and a half. They built a new frame, and reinstalled the glass. You cannot tell it's been worked on, it looks and functions like original. Shamil also replaced a very large picture window in another room. The old one was foggy between the glass, and the lower frame also had some rot. They repaired the frame and installed a new 8'X6' window. They cleaned up after themselves completely. BEKA did not disappoint and will be our window repair company from now on.“

“They are very easy to work with and very accommodating group ,and will go out of there way to help if possible.......Thank u Mr Martinez and Fran......very much appreciate ur efforts !!!“

“I highly recommend this window replacement service.The crew was friendly and really paid attention to what we needed“

“We received quotes from 5 different companies and Semko's price was the best. They replaced 30 windows in our 100+ year-old 2 flat. Their team was friendly, communicative, and on time. They worked very fast, but nothing was rushed - it's clear they just know their stuff. Our windows are beautiful and they left our place as clean (maybe cleaner) than they found it. The weather is in the negatives right now and it feels warmer inside than it did last winter with our old windows when it was 30 degrees warmer outside.“

“I recently had an issue with my Pella window door which broke last Christmas due to the extreme cold weather. Finding someone skilled in repairing this specific type of door was a challenge, but Sovacchi stepped up to the task brilliantly. Despite the freezing conditions, their team arrived on time and worked diligently to fix the door. I was particularly impressed with their fair pricing and exceptional service quality. Highly recommend Sovacchi for their professionalism and expertise in handling such specialized tasks.“

“Patrick S - reviewI am very happy with the service Patrick provided to my roof. He was on time, polite and knew exactly what needed to be done to repair my roofing problem. I will not hesitate to use Patrick and All Roof again in the future - if needed. Mike R.“

“I had a few dozens of windows replaced by McCannn Windows. The crews led by Valentin did quality work in a timely manner. Overall the communication with sale & McCann is very good, and they are responsive. The estimated lead time turns out to be quite accurate also. So McCann Windows has my recommendation.“

“We are extremely happy with the work done on our house. I can’t tell you how many compliments we’ve gotten from our neighbors to even the inspector! The entire crew really has an amazing skill and we’re so professional throughout the whole time they were here. We were also so impressed with the amount of communication Opal has with their customers so thank you!“

“I’m back to leave another glowing review! My family and I always come back to this company when we need home improvements because they are trustworthy, reliable and honest.We originally used them for a bunch of interior work ~7 years ago and we were very happy with the results. When we moved a couple years later, the house we purchased had unforeseen roof damage that needed immediate repair. I called C & R, who came out very soon after to give us an estimate. I felt that they were very understanding of our situation (new home, unexpected expenses) and were clear on what repairs needed to be taken care of immediately and what could wait. They were knowledgeable about the materials that were used and answered the questions I had with patience and clear explanations.Highly recommend! We plan to return as customers this summer for some interior cosmetic work.Services: Roof repair“

“We had a tremendous amount of exterior work done recently at our home by Chicagoland Builders. My wife and I could not have been more pleased with their team of professionals. They completed the needed painting and repair, replaced our siding, gutters, fascia and soffits with high quality material (Hardie siding) on time and under budget. They cleaned up and left our home’s exterior never looking better. We highly recommend their team and would not hesitate to use Chicagoland Builders again.“

“Steve, Alex, John and the entire installation crew are wonderful to deal with. First Steve (the President) came to our house, discussed our siding options and presented us with his personal design ideas to really make our house pop. He succeeded beyond our expectations. We chose the James Hardie fibercement siding. The entire exterior has transformed into a home to be proud of with enhanced curb appeal. John and the installation crew showed up on time and stayed until the sun set every day. They also cleaned up every day. Their attention to detail and quality really stood out to my wife and I. If you need siding, windows, etc contact Nu Concepts and you will not be disappointed.“

“We had foundation problems with the footings of our brick pillars in front of our bungalow. Gary came out and assessed the problem and confidently talked us through the process. The quote was right where we expected it to be and the team of two who did the work were exceptionally skillful. All our neighbors commented on the quality of work they were doing. Apparently the standard brick size has changed since our house was built. The search for the right size proved to be a challenge which they were successful in finding with their dedication to get the job done right. They also squared up our concrete stairs. Highly recommend and will keep calling the doctor when the need arises.“

“I'm glad I chose these guys for my window replacement project.i would highly recommend them.“

“We highly recommend A & B Environmental Construction. Francisco was very knowledgeable and reassuring throughout the testing process. Javier and his crew worked hard to get our remediation done in a timely manner. Iris and Mireya were great on the administration end. It’s a stressful situation when your home has asbestos and needs remediation, but A & B’s team made the process much easier with their professional and friendly service.“

“Very good professional and honest people he installed my window And did amazing job“

“I finally decided to have my skylights replaced after 16 years. My first call was to Houseworks. From the initial call with LeAnn my experience was phenomenal. Their foreman Larry came out quickly to measure and explain everything I needed to know about the skylights. I accepted the proposal and was scheduled immediately. Their installer Tom showed up early and preped the inside to begin the job. After the job was completed you couldn't tell that we had work done because of how clean it was, Tom was awesome. I could not have asked for a more professional and knowledgeable company then Houseworks. The price was right and my experience was great. If I could give them 6 stars I would. I would definitely refer them to family and friends. Thanks for a Job well done.“

“We got several quotes from companies to replace our siding on our 100+ year-old home. Many were from companies that have done almost all of our neighbors' homes, but the Siding & Windows Group was the most responsive, professional and detailed by far.Our salesman, John, answered all of my questions to make sure we got the look we wanted. Our project manager, Anthony, communicated throughout the whole process. Our team leader, Rene, could not have been nicer and the whole team was meticulous and respectful. We also decided to replace a couple of windows and they are beautiful!No extra issues or hidden costs. We would highly recommend them.Service: Window installation“

“These guys are great! I run an antiques restoration company and we recommend Peterson to all of our customers, in addition to using them ourselves. They're friendly, do great work, and can source hard to find materials all for a reasonable price.“
