Windows Installation near Skokie

“After several unsuccessful calls to other window companies. I decided to give Skokie Windows a call. I’m really glad I did. We used this company to replace some standard size windows and a custom window. The price was right and the service was top notch. They were professional and the job was done in a timely matter with excellent results. I highly recommend Skokie Windows!“

“I would like to share that Beata was wonderful in the follow up and making sure that I was completely satisfied with the replacement door. Her Customer Service is outstanding!“

“When it came time to replace our 20 year old siding on our 55 year old home, we knew we needed help in modernizing it. We took a chance on Real Exteriors based on their 5 star reviews and we were not disappointed. We liked Joe’s advice and price so much we didn’t feel the need to pursue other bids. Joe and his crew were professional, communicated well and worked hard to complete the job in a timely manner. After removing the old siding they identified and repaired several areas that had not been done properly by the previous siding company such as poor caulking, lack of insulation, window trim not installed correctly, etc. They took pride in their work and went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied customers. We have received so many compliments on the new look and couldn’t be happier.“

“Michon Windows replaced 4 windows. They did an excellent job. They were thorough and completed the job with care. I would definitely hire them again.“

“After many years in waiting my wife and I decided we needed new windows for our home. We had a lot of windows including some picture windows. My wife asked me to find a Chicago area contractor. Thinking about this and knowing that there were lots of Ukrainians (prior experience working with Ukrainain software developers who are considered some of the world's best programmers) living in the Chicago area I started looking for window contractors that were Ukrainian base...... and I found one. The name of the window contractor was E. V. Windows & Doors. Our first meeting with Chris was great and somewhat unique. At the end of the meeting, I asked Chris why we should hire him. Chris responded saying they were the best ... ... ..and he said he had a team of Ukrainians working for him.... which was the best, most concise value proposition and greatest sales close I have ever experienced. For those who have never had the Ukrainian worker experience I strongly suggest you use E. V. Windows & Doors. Allow Chris to prove to you the masterly great Ukrainian work as they do window installs for your home. The only negotiation was discussing how soon he could start. Starting date became the main thing. While waiting for Chris's team to come a couple months later we would contact Chris and ask him questions about the project. When we had a question, we would email, or call and we got a near immediate response with a brief and accurate summary. They always responded quickly with great suggestions and updated us on the manufacturing and supply chain process for new windows. Being introduce to the window manufacturing-supply chain process with updates on each was very different from other prior service providers In the middle of September, Chris's Ukrainian team came to our home. Stefan, a nice and very smart guy was the crew leader. Introduicng himself in a professional manner, Stefan described the process they would use, a first for me. Other contractors for other jobs never explain in length in the manner Stefan describe to me. Then they went to work. Instead of being gabby like other work crews we had in our home from prior work they were heads down getting the work done. They moved fast, being very neat and tidy, always picking up anything that fell. When I came by and asked a question they immediately answered and then went right back to work. One thing I noticed as they were working was how focused and effective they were as they installed the larger picture windows on the second floor of our home. Despite the window size each crew man was able to install the window by himself. When the windows were installed, Stefan as they were finishing up explained how we should take care of the windows. As he was describe what, how, and why, I started noticing the window frames. Their structure looked very solid compared to other window designs I had seen at other retail locations. One of the other facts about Stefan and his crew, it took them only a few hours to get all the windows and everything in our home clean up. We were told by other vendors that our window project would take up most of the day. So I say try out E. V. Windows & Doors.....and enjoy the Ukrainian work experience. It will be a most interesting and wonderful experience.“

“We had numerous windows and a sliding patio door replaced by Nu Concepts. They are very efficient, neat, clean and honest. We are also very pleased with their pricing. If an issue comes up they are extremely prompt in addressing it and correcting it in a very timely manner. I highly recommend them for any product or services they offer.“

“2.5 years ago our basement flooded the day before we moved in. As a first time homeowner it was an uphill battle. After we replaced the sewer line, installed drain tile, and got the rotting supports replaced we had finally resolved the flooding problems. However, there was no desire, and frankly no Reason, to celebrate.

The basement was now mangled. Dust from the unfinished concrete was visibly building up on the filters. This was merely the Battle of Helm's Deep part of our journey with much more to go. We began planning how we wanted to (re)finish the basement, called the number for Marion Street Services, and talked to Tony. He came at the first light on the first day with a few other members of his team to look at our situation. They took the time to fully inspect the basement, not just the few things we mentioned. They listened to what we had been through and were empathetic throughout. Within a few days they sent over an extremely in-depth itemized list of estimates for anything we could have wanted. Instead of playing whack-a-mole with problems as they popped up, we now had a checklist with details and rough costs. This was so immensely helpful and allowed us to put together a longer term plan, figure out which parts were cheaper than we thought, which were more expensive and worth DIY-ing.

We decided to proceed with finishing the basement floor, for which epoxy was recommended. They connected us with Jim from The Garage Store who came out WITH the Marion team and they used a laser level to see where the ground rose and sank, finding differences of over 3 inches in some areas. Instead of just pouring epoxy and calling it a day they came up with a plan to grind down the high points and trowel in material at the low points so we could have a more usable and enjoyable space at the end of the day. Kierra with Marion Street Services took care of the communication with Jim from there, and forwarded me their estimate which was more than fair. She worked with The Garage Store to schedule the work, facilitated the communication on color and timeline, made payments simple with an online link, and checked in on the progress throughout the work.

I couldn't be more happy with how the floor turned out. I put a few before and after photos next to each other to show just how wild the difference is. The floor is more level, the finish is spread evenly flush with all edges and even around the difficult plumbing, furnace, and framing.

If you have a little, or a lot of work you need to get done, do yourself a favor and get help. I spent a lot of time searching for plumbers, electricians, architects, structural engineers, the list goes on and on. Multiply that by at least two if you are looking to compare opinions and estimates. I wish I had found Marion Street Services much sooner. I have a few things I am finishing on my own, but am going to need a lot of help in the months to come. When I do, Marion Street Services will be the first number I dial, because it truly feels like you have Tony and the rest of the team in your corner.

I'll admit the LOTR reference was dramatic, but that last photo is my wife's and my first shoe-less steps in our basement in two and a half years of living here. Whatever situation you are in, you don't gotta face it alone. Marion Street Services are as honest as they come. They are there to help, not to shake you down for as much as they can. Do yourself a favor, or do your FUTURE self a favor, and just give them a call. You won't regret it.“

“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.“
