I just had Kelemer Brothers replace my 40 year old wooden windows and an exterior door in my bedroom, Gabriel was very helpful with my decision taking into consideration what I wanted and what my budget would allow. I love the windows and door and couldn't be happier with the quality and the installation, The wrapping on the outside was beautifully done and I have had several neighbors compliment the appearance. His employees were very pleasant and efficient. They cleaned up perfectly before leaving and even cleaned some of the dust on top of some my window frames. Gabriel came by again after the installation, checked each window and door and told me to call him if there were any problems at all, Quite frankly, I doubt there will be.
Description of Work: I had 14 windows and one exterior door replaced,

We chose Joe Kelemer, over the other contractors from whom we had received estimates, because he was so personable that we felt we could trust him and he would be easy to work with. He definitely met our expectations! We selected beige for the exterior of the windows, to match the siding, and they look wonderful! We certainly will be calling Joe when we replace the rest of our windows.
Description of Work: Installed 11 double-hung windows.

What a fantastic company! We were nervous about replacing all of our windows. We were not looking forward to sales pitches and companies trying to sell us stuff we didn't need. We are so happy we called Kelemer Brothers. Joe himself came out and first talked to us about OUR needs. After taking measurements, he came up with the windows that best fit our situation and price. No sales pitch, no high pressure, and a more reasonable price than we had anticipated!! He gladly answered all our questions and explained the whole process in detail. The day of install everything went smoothly and everyone was very professional. Joe even brought me flowers when the project was completed. What contractor does that?! We absolutely LOVE our new windows and only wish we could hire Kelemer Brothers to do all the work needed around our house.

The windows are custom-made, which is important for these old houses, which can be anything but "square". The crew of 3 came today and worked for about 5 hours until the job was completed. They were polite and very competent, and they cleaned up and hauled away all the old materials. Gabriel came by once in the morning and again when they were finishing up. This guy was a pleasure to work with and mentioned several times that, if we had any problems, either due to a defect or damage, as per their warranty, they would come out to fix it at no charge, whatever the problem. Two thumbs up the Kelemer Brothers!
Description of Work: Gabriel Kelemer was prompt in returning our call for an estimate. He was friendly, polite, clearly excited about his product (the windows), their warranty, the (local) manufacturers and his installation crew. He showed us samples and answered all our questions. At no time did we ever feel any pressure at all--no sleezy sales tactics!!!--to sign immediately or ever. After comparing with a Thompson Creek sales rep, who was obnoxiously "salesy" and whose price for the windows was more than double though equal in quality at best and possibly of inferior quality, we decided to go with Kelemer Bros. to replace 11 windows in our home.

They showed up on time and in one long sweltering day they replaced 24 windows. When they left, the place was spic and span. I was very impressed. Joe was a pleasure to deal with. When he saw that the next day threatened to be rainy and that I was not planning to be at home, he called in an extra crew so the work could get done in one day. Every member of his crew was polite and easy to deal with, careful not to let my dog out and respectful of our property. The eventual price was higher than I'd hoped to spend, but that was because I added two windows to the project that I hadn't planned on replacing; otherwise, Joe's estimate was very competitive. I would be happy to hire them again, and probably will, once we save up some more money to do more rehab around here.

They advised me on different types of window replacement, and though they did not give me the absolute cheapest price, I was impressed by Joe Kelemer's salesmanship and a suggestion that he made to transform my kitchen sink windows to casement--which I ended up doing, and really liked. He facilitated a last-minute change in our order, and when the windows arrived they got the work done in one day. It was amazing. More than a year later, when some projectile broke one of the upstairs windows, he promptly ordered a replacement and installed it for free. Can't do any better than that.

Joe did an excellent job replacing most of the windows in my house. Several months later I was having some construction done (completely separate from the work that Joe had done) and one of the workmen damaged the seal on a window which Joe had installed. I texted Joe a picture of the damage and asked how I might fix it. Joe came and personally fixed it himself. He was absolutely under no obligation to do this. I feel Joe goes the extra mile to take care of his customers and this is a good example of this.

Joe was an excellent provider from the estimate to the end of the job. He listened carefully and gave us an estimate that was comparable to the other providers we surveyed. The windows were delivered in a timely manner and the installation was as easy as it could be. The installers were courtious, careful and efficient. They were very attentive to cleaning up after themselves. The finished product is excellent quality and beautiful. Joe checked in with us every step of the way. Excellent customer service!

We had several original windows in our 1930s home that desperately needed to be replaced. Joe met with us and was extremely professional, pleasant, and easy to work with. Even though our job was relatively small, he made us feel very valued and got our job done in a timely manner. The installation work was performed quickly by courteous employees and the finished job is beautiful. The windows are perfect, and they left no trace of a mess behind. We had a truly excellent experience with Kelemer Brothers from start to finish, and we won't hesitate to give them our business again in the future.

Excellent service and great windows! After meeting with several other window sales guys, I was exhausted by the entire high-pressure sales pitch process. I was pleased with the Kelemer Brothers (Joe) sales approach -- informative yet low-pressure -- so I went with their product, Vytex. Although anything may have been better than the 30 years old sliding glass doors and windows that I previously had, I feel that the Vytex product was a solid option within my budget. The installers worked promptly and efficiently and the windows look great ... so far so good, no leaks! I will definitely recommend them to others and will use them again in the future for any window or siding needs. Great job!

I can't say enough good things about Kelemer Brothers. I contacted them based upon their Angie's List reviews and I was not disappointed! Joe explained in detail the work that would be done as well as the type of windows and doors that they used. We chose the mid-range windows/doors that best fit our needs and price range, btw his pricing was extremely fair for the quality of the windows and doors! He made us feel very comfortable with our decision. Kelmer brothers was the first estimate that I got for the job. I did get two other estimates just for due diligence but I felt most comfortable with Joe and Kelemer Brotthers from the onset. Joe gave us an estimate of 6-8 weeks after the contract was signed for the installation and he was right on point. Our windows were installed on the 7th week. Kelemer Brothers does not sub contract their work like many other companies - they have their own in house crew that performs their installs and they are all factory trained! The installation was completed in one day - about 8 hours total. Joe came by at the beginning and end of the install to make sure everything went smoothly. He explained in depth the operation of our new windows and doors. The factory did make a mistake as a screen for one of our sliding glass doors was missing. Joe contacted the factory immediately and re-assured us that the missing part would be installed within a week's time - and sure enough, one of the employee' s of the window manufacturer installed the missing screen door. I can tell the Joe really takes pride in his work and customer satisfaction is of utmost importance. If felt more like we were purchasing from a friend of the family. If you are looking for windows and doors, Kelemer Brothers is a fantastic company that does excellent work!

It was with great trepidation that I set out to begin arranging major work for my home. A previous bad experience with a window contractor made me dread having to attempt it again. I joined Angie's List to try to avoid that happening again, hoping to find providers that others had been happy with. I struck gold with Kelemer Brothers - all the good reviews here are well deserved. From my first contact with Joe Kelemer to the installation of the windows, everything has been smooth and low-stress. Joe always called when he said he would, showed up when he said he would, emailed what and when he said he would - not once did I ever have to chase him down. On our first meeting, he heard my plans and concerns and discussed the most viable options with me in a clear manner. He did not pressure me at all or try to upsell. He seemed genuinely concerned that I get the best I could get for my needs and budget. I took some time to research the windows he offered and found they were well rated, good quality windows. We met again and hammered out the contract details - again a low-stress experience with no pressure. The windows were ready within a few weeks, but due to some personal circumstances, I wasn't. Another unforeseen circumstance then piled on top of that, and it ended up being a few months before I could proceed. Throughout this delay, Joe was patient and accommodating. He stored my windows at no charge during this time. Yesterday was installation day (at last - hurray!). George and Vince showed up to do the installation and worked diligently throughout the day. They were friendly and personable and happily answered our questions. Joe came and went a few times, checking on the work and also at one point going out to get a wider molding for the bay window at no charge to spare me having to deal with the raised paint lines from the old one. It looks great. They also installed new shutters that I had purchased. The new windows and shutters are a massive improvement to the look of this old house. The windows are also attractive from the inside, and I am very happy with their quality and operation. This was an excellent investment, and I feel lucky to have found Kelemer Brothers to do it. Normally I would wait a bit to write a review to see how things go, but I'm writing this one right away because I believe from my dealings with Joe Kelemer that he is an honest man and I am confident that he would address any issues if they did arise. I will happily recommend Kelemer Brothers without hesitation to anyone looking for new windows.

Joe Kelemer came out to explain the process, options, and cost. He was through in explaining the details, but low pressure. He had samples and reviewed the difference in the window types. I found the price reasonable. The 2 person crew came out and replaced all 7 windows in one day and cleaned up all debris. I discovered a small hole in one of the screens the next day. I called and they had it taken care of immediately.

We received 3 quotes. Foretunately, one of our neighbors recommended we contact the Kelemer Brothers. Once I called them, Gabriel was at our home within days and gave us the most knowledgable and thorough presentation of their product and the process. He also told us how to finance the purchase with no interest for the first 12 months. Once he left, there was no doubt we would use their firm. What a wise decision! We thought we would have to wait until February but Gabriel and Joe were able to fit us in earlier and we had the job done on New Year's Eve.! A crew of 3 excellent workmen did all 17 windows in one day.....they arrived at 8 AM and left at 3PM and the house was cleaner than when they arrived! I knew we needed new windows but I didn't realize how badly until they were replaced.....the house seems so much brighter and much less drafty. (Not to speak of how much easier it is to open them!!!) It is such a joy to work with people who obviously take great pride in their workmanship.....BRAVO! If you need Windows replaced, be sure to call the Kelemer Brothers (Gabtriel & Joe)

This was a very satisfying experience. The proposal was clear and straight forward and Joe addressed any questions in a straightforward and candid way. Through out the project Joe was very responsive, and never made a promise he didn't keep. There were a few minor hic cups along the way, the sort that would happen on any project, but what impressed me was how Joe dealt with them proactively and just made everything right. I would have no hesitation using this company again or recommending them to a friend.

From start to finish Kelemer Brothers did an excellent job. Though I had never heard of Vytex windows, Joe explained clearly why they used them. Joe was very thorough with the process and explained very clearly how they would do the work which was very much appreciated. I was very pleased with the work done by their work crew: they very professional and didn't mind answering questions while they did the install. At the same time, I was also having my siding done by another contractor. Kelemer Brothers helped me navigate what work should be done first and was very amenable to work around this. I couldn't be more happy with the windows themselves. My wife and I are already noticing a difference!

Everything from start to finish was awesome. Joe stopped by and did the estimate personally. His price was extremely competitive and actually beat the other estimates that I received. He estimated 6 weeks to have the windows made and installed. I believe it actually took about 4 weeks. He called me when they were ready and set up immediate installation of the windows. Four guys came on the day of installation and started taking out the old windows. As one took a window out another was putting one in. The guys never stopped working. They installed 17 windows, trimmed everything outside and cleaned up in about 7 hours. The clean up was spotless. Joe's brother stopped by at the end of the day to make sure everything went as planned. Not only did they do a great job they also had six months no interest financing. I will certainly call Joe again when its time to replace my siding.
