We were very pleased with Approved Contractor.  They were both responsive, prompt, and efficient--no surprises or set-backs.  We felt that the windows and the installation were quality at a reasonable price.  We would definitely use them again in the future.

Everything went great.  Our windows were presented a bit of a problem as they were really stuck into the stucco.  However, the guys took it in stride and even though it took a little bit more time, they finished all of them in less than a day and a half.  The workers were super - extremely polite, friendly and hard working.  This was a wonderful experience from the time Justin came out to do the estimate to the finished product!

An installer came out and measured the windows.  About a month later, as estimated, they called to schedule the install.  They showed up on the day I chose and did the install in about 2.5 hours.  The finished product looks way better than the last install another company did, and they didn't break anything.  Great experience (though it hasn't rained yet, so that will be the final test).

This might be the best contractor we have ever had work on our home. Justin is amazing, honest, and he provides clear and punctual communicaitons. Jesus and his team were top notch professionals. The prep work these guys put into our home was as good as it gets. Our house really needed a lot of work. The last paint job we got (lowest bidder) was terrible! Now, the neighbors keep stopping by to tell us how great the house looks. No better testimony than that. And with the incrediable Angie's list discount Justin gave us, this has to have been the best deal in town. My faith in contractos has been renewed. Thanks Approved Contractor. You guys are the best.

Great!   Jesus and his crew are great.  A real happy bunch of guys that works well together and gets the job done!   Very pleased with the professional job this crew did, and will be using them again next year for another project.  Justin the manager is great, steps you through the process and goes over the quote in detail so you know exactly what you are getting and what it is costing.   Recommend this group for any stucco or exterior painting needs.

They are excellent. I have never seen anyone work like this. If I had more for them to paint I definitely would. They are very fair, forward and up-front with pricing. They are very friendly and helpful.

Matt, Cody and Kyle arrived  right on time just as they promised and got right to work.  they had to remove old iron bars that had bee on the house over 25 years.  they then removed all the old windows and began installing new ones .. It was rainig a bit and thundering but they kept right on working.. They were here about 2 1/2 hrs and cleaned everything up and took even my old blinds with them .. these guys were extremely polite , clean and did a beautiful job!!! I would recommend this company (APPROVED CONTRACTOR ) to anyone that want professional workmen and pleasant people to work with Including  Justin (the Owner)  ...  ALSO the price was right!!!

Justin (company representative/estimator) and Jesus (work site foreman) were complete professionals.  They established a timeline and held to it.  They gave a fair quote for the scope of work and held to the estimates provided.  The contract explanation and signing was very straightforward.  Contact information was exchanged and both Justin and Jesus answered phone calls or returned them promptly.  The work crew was on time, tidy, and respectful of our house and yard.  The quality of work was excellent.  Our house looks like new thanks to Jesus and his crew!  All timelines were met, and there were no additional expenses.  I will gladly use Approved Contractors Inc. again if I need work done.

Over the years we have dealt with about half a dozen contractors ranging from painters, landscapers, concrete work; HVAC, remodelers, roofers, etc. They all started out wonderfully but in short order work became unacceptable, workers failed to show up, extra costs crept in, the general contractor became scarce. 

Approved Contractor Inc. is everything these others were not.  Our primary contact, Justin, delivered everything we wanted, as we wanted it, on time and at a fair price.  The crew was methodical and detail oriented taking care of everything down to the smallest thing.  The crew supervisor, Jesus, demonstrated outstanding supervisor skills; vast experience; and an encyclopedic knowledge of the business. 

Everyone at Approved Contractor Inc. was always respectful of us and our property.  This is the first time we did not feel the need to keep a watchful eye as their demeanor and behavior put us at ease and gave us a sense of their trustworthiness.

The finished product is superb and our satisfaction is complete. We wholeheartedly comfortably recommend Approve Contractor Inc.

The deal clearly stated it was good for 1,500 square feet. I thought this was for exterior painting square feet. The SP informed me that it was for the interior square footage and for my home there would be extra charges. I do not want this deal. Please refund.

Excellent, great service with great professionalism not to mention that they were quick and explain all our questions.
Our bathroom window has old wooden frame with LEAD, they are certified to work with lead so everything has handle appropriate.

Response from Approved Contractor, Inc.

"Thank you for your kind words regarding our prompt response and punctuality. With regards to the price, we're sorry the number didn't fit within your budget. Please note casement windows cost more than traditional sliders and therefore an additional charge was applied. If this wasn't properly explained to you we do apologize."

It was okay. They did the standard stuff just fine but when they put in the door, they put a funky little mold on the bottom as the trim and it is not standard and it looks a little cheesy. But as far as the product that they installed on the windows, that was good enough. It was just really the trim work around the sliding glass door that just does not look natural. I do not remember the date of the service.

We are extremely pleased with the outcome of our house.  Communication was outstanding from beginning to end.  What they promised, they did.  They repaired damaged eaves and repaired stucco.  Everything they did was meticulous.  They did a great job cleaning up at the end of each day.  They even covered the neighbors' cars so no paint was sprayed on them!  A professional, reliable group.  Very impressed.

Justin arrived on time for the estimate, he was very knowledgable & even brought a sample. John & Mat did the work & what a great job they did. They were on time, friendly & efficient. This is the third home that I have had to replace windows, & I have never had a better job done. They explained every thing they did & even removed window stickers, washed all the windows , patio doors & even vacuumed all of the tracks. I will very, very highly recommend the company & everyone that worked to get the great job done!!!!!!

Justin came out and quoted us on windows. 
He came early, which was nice, and was matter-of-fact about the whole process. There was no drama or noticeable selling tactics. It was what it was and I sincerely appreciated that. 
The Approved Contractor team sells Anlin Windows, which is one of the better known brands in the window industry with a very good quality and service rating. 
My wife and I liked another window type better and ended up going with another group, but this team's product, professionalism and price point make them very hard to beat. 
They also offer painting services and we plan to look them up in the future for those services.
