Morgan Exteriors is a family-owned home improvement company with over 30 years of experience, specializing in high-performance windows and siding solutions. We offer a variety of options, including energy-efficient, impact-resistant windows, and both vinyl and fiber-cement siding to enhance your home's beauty, durability, and value. With factory-trained installers and a commitment to excellence, we deliver superior craftsmanship and customer service on every project. Backed by a lifetime guarantee on our products, Morgan Exteriors ensures lasting results that you can depend on, no matter the weather or the season.

"DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! Be warned: If I could give zero stars I would! THIS IS MORGAN EXTERIORS, after at least two FAILED INSPECTIONS. The crew is not Morgan employees they are sub-contractors naming Morgan as additional insured. After more than three thousand dollars in damage I have not been made whole as stated below from Ben Love. When I questioned their bill and put a previous review on Google Susan and Kirk Morgan threatened me. Sorry this is truth, no lies and wouldn't be considered slander! I say bring it! Morgan will lose! I have 43 emails and over 100 photos of poor workmanship (failed sheathing inspection for using drywall screws and staples, another failed inspection for single nailed trim) From Ownership to actual employees this company is rude, threatening and does not care. These people are clowns! See below ME: "Kirk. I have been thinking about my conversation with Ben Love. Dropping an "F" bomb in conversation is not swearing at him. The word was never aimed at him but answering his silly question. Ben is in the wrong business if he feels the need to scream at a customer for using the word f*** . I have engaged Precision Garage Door, A-1 Screen and Plummer Paint for painting replaced garage door, expense on top of door and install. I will be purchasing and paying a contractor to replace my shed tomorrow. The removal and assembly will run more than expected. Also the $2,200 garage door is going to be $400 more to paint with the correct materials. The cost are going to be higher than first expected due to contractors pricing. Just the door and shed and screens are at $4,050. I have more contractors coming next week for estimating the remainder of your damages to my home. Before Ben FLIPS OUT screaming at a customer maybe he should put himself in my shoes. This is my home. That is why I am being in your words agressive. All BEN needed to do was fulfill HIS promise to call me before close of business yesterday. I have been forced to engage contractors to remediate your damages and will add a reasonable charge for my time, at an hourly rate." MORGAN RESPONSE: "Dan, sir, I apologize if I came off crass earlier, I have nothing but the best intentions for your house in mind and we will get you made whole expeditiously and your job will shine. In regards to the workers, in the state of Florida, Morgan Exteriors insurance company requires that all of our workers be independently insured under their own entity. The siding crew that was at your home today has his own insurance under his own company name but has done work solely for Morgan Exteriors as an in house contractor for 4 years now. We use our own contractors that are independently licensed and insured per the agreement with our insurance company."

As your local Simonton and Wincore dealer, BeeLine Construction was formerly EcoView Windows of North Central Florida. Delivering the unsurpassed value for which both companies are known. We are now offering professional installation of quality replacement windows and doors, including impact windows and doors. We do not offer broken glass service or screen repair. Why should you upgrade to better windows? Here's just a few reasons: Energy Efficiency: Replacement windows often come with advanced technologies and materials that provide better insulation, reducing energy consumption. This can result in lower heating and cooling costs, making them a cost-effective long-term investment. Cost Savings: While the initial investment may seem significant, the long-term savings on energy bills and potential maintenance costs can outweigh the upfront expenses. Replacement windows can contribute to a more energy-efficient home, saving money over time. Increased Property Value: Upgrading to modern and aesthetically pleasing replacement windows can enhance the curb appeal of your home. This not only makes the property more attractive to potential buyers but can also increase its overall market value. Reduced Energy Costs & Increased Comfort: Improved insulation and advanced window technologies help regulate indoor temperatures, creating a more comfortable living environment. Replacement windows can minimize drafts, reduce noise from outside, and provide better control over the indoor climate. UV Protection: Many replacement windows are designed with coatings that block harmful UV rays. This not only protects your furniture, flooring, and other belongings from fading but also provides lower indoor temperatures saving on AC bills. Low Maintenance: Modern replacement windows are often constructed with durable, low-maintenance materials such as vinyl. This means less time and money spent on upkeep, painting, or repairs compared to older, traditional windows. Improved Security

"These guys replaced 2 windows at my elderly mother’s house. Quick and very professional. Also affordable. She highly recommends."

Security Doors questions, answered by experts

High-tech solutions and strategic placement can help ensure the safety of your pet door. Pet doors can pose security risks, as well as the risk of stray or wild animals entering your home, but modern pet doors offer options like collar-based sensors to ensure doors will only open for your pet, and installing a pet door in an out-of-sight location or in a wall rather than a door can help to avoid intruders using the door to gain access to your home.

You can use wood, metal, or plastic as a door shim, but keep in mind that wood will rot easier than the other two materials. Your local hardware store should have at least one type in stock. Alternatively, you can trim a piece of cardboard to fit underneath your door hinge and work as a temporary, makeshift door shim.

A door sill is the bottom portion of your door frame, while a threshold is the transition piece that separates the two types of flooring between rooms, or serves as the transition between the interior and exterior on an exterior door. The threshold sits on top of the door sill. A kick plate is a protective plate that sits against the face of a door to prevent damage to the door from feet and shoes. You’ll usually only find kick plates on exterior doors, while every door has a door sill, and most exterior and interior doors have a threshold.

Security experts recommend deadbolt door locks on entry doors because they provide the best security. Deadbolts can prevent most types of forced entry and make your doors harder to lockpick.

Most of the time, a squeaky door is the result of dry hinges, where metal parts rub together without enough lubrication. Dirt, dust, or rust can also build up inside the hinge and add to the friction. Loose screws or slight misalignment can shift things just enough to create that irritating squeaking noise. Worn-out hinges or swelling wood from humidity changes can also be part of the problem on older doors. A good cleaning and proper lubrication usually take care of it, but if the squeak sticks around, it’s worth checking for bigger issues with the hinges or alignment.
