Kelemer Brothers

If I had to choose one word to describe our impression of Kelemer Brother's work, it would be "WOW". We had a great experience working with Joe Kelemer from start to finish on our project. He is very professional, kind and considerate. When we entered our home following the replacement of our old windows (22 total) we were amazed. Not only at the obvious quality and expertise of the work, but the attention to detail and clean up of the work areas. What impressed us most was that even the smaller windows in our basement were given the same attention to detail, even though they were less expensive and basically out of sight. Joe followed up with a phone call that night to see how we liked the windows, and we told him we couldn't be more pleased. We have only had the windows a couple of weeks but they make such a big improvement to the look of our home, and we will most certainly see our heating bills drop. We would highly recommend Kelemer Brother's Replacement Windows.

Joe Kelemer is very professional and the company performed the work quickly and efficiently. The job was performed earlier than had been estimated, and the installation was top notch. The crew cleaned up well, and Joe inspected the work. I highly recommend this company. And thanks for the flowers, Joe!

Joe is great. He came out last year and gave me an estimate. I was not able to schedule the job at that time, but when I called back this year, he kept the quote at the same price. He explained what his crew would do and called me when the windows were ready to be installed. The crew came early, explained what they would do and got right to work. Joe came out a bit later to check on their progress. He returned later to walk me through the functions of the windows and doors, after they were done. Joe and his crew did everything they said they would do. They cleaned up after themselves and even finished early! They were professional and courteous and did a great job. Joe lives windows. You can tell loves his job and he loves people. I would hire Joe again in a minute! You should too. Tell him Venetia sent you!

Joe Kelemer delivered exceptional service and a high quality product, at a fair price. What more can you ask for? The windows look absolutely amazing and have improved the overall appearance of my home that was built in 1939. The installation and cleanup was top notch. Aside from the fact that I had new windows, it looked like they were never there. I had a general contracting company, that I was using for a kitchen renovation, quote me a price that was double what Joe charged me. I highly recommend this company.

I was very happy. Joe was spectacular. His crew came in and installed the windows, and then he showed me how to work them. Joe inspected everything and made sure all was completed. They cleaned up very nicely.

We had 8 windows that were becoming harder and harder to operate. So, we thought they should be replaced. I'd already had a phone conversation with Gabriel Kelemer, who had quoted me a price over the phone. Still, he needed to come out to see the windows in question. He left without selling me a single window. Instead, Gabriel fixed the problem on a few windows, showing me how to do the same with rest. Saving us several thousand dollars! I need to add that a salesman from another company (from Angies' List) had come to my home and told me the problem was that my "windows" are just too old." His recommended solution was a $700+ replacement window.

Gabriel was kind enough to come out to the house to look at a broken picture window I thought needed replacing. Most every other company I contacted refused to do so because they require a minimum number of replacement windows &/or the opportunity to sell you their services. Gabriel was very thorough & very professional. He walked me through my options, but in the end decided that the best course of action was simple glass replacement - something his company doesn't even do! I really appreciated his honesty & will not hesitate to call him when the time comes for me to actually replace all of my windows.

They came out to replace 2 doors after my house was broken into. They came out very quickly to give me the estimate. The doors are a bitexpensive, but the work is of high quality, which is well worth the extra money. I would definitely recommend them. They are great people.

I was very satisfied with the service and the product. The sales visit was no pressure - just the facts, measurements and an estimate. The install was as scheduled, quick and no mess was left. The windows they recommended look good, are easy to use and, hopefully will improve my energy bills - time will tell. I would recommend them highly. I gave a B for price only because its a big purchase and I'm cheap.

Professional, attentive to details, scheduled and performed work within our tight (and constantly changing) time requirements, and worked quickly to minimize the disruption to household. Excellent team of workers. We would definitely recommend them.

Fantastic service. Friendly staff. They were punctual, fast and professional. The windows look amazing, and they cleaned very well once they were done. They custom built the windows for our house, and still came in at a cheaper price than their competitors. They also sent progress updates throughout the day, and stuck around afterwards to explain our new windows and go over any questions we had. Strongly recommended - Tell Joe that Steve & Ashley sent you, and we said hello!

I called Kelemer Bros as one of my first actions as a first-time home owner. They responded to my inquiry quickly and we set a day and time for them to see what needed to be done. On that day and the day they came to put in the windows, they let me know their ETA and it was really close if not a bit earlier than what we had set up. Though they had employees putting in the windows, joe stopped here a few times checking things out making sure it was going well and no problems were encountered. Their staff who installed the windows were courteous and very professional. The speed that they were performing their work was incredible, but it wasn't speed due to laziness or just shoving them into the wall, but a speed and accuracy because they must be doing this a lot and know exactly what they were doing and are quite proficient at it. The windows are more than ok, they're beautiful; the installation looks so good i don't really want to put the curtains back up. It's very nice to have my first home-owner action turn out so well. I have already and will continue to recommend them to friends and coworkers.

Punctual, Efficient, Thorough, and Clean! Updated 5 months later - I'm not pleased with the caulking as dirt is getting trapped in it. Window quality is great though.

It's a pleasure to work with a company that takes pride in its product, its service and its employees. On top of that, their prices were dramatically lower than the competition's. I got the vinyl windows with the wood veneer on the inside so that they can be stained to match the downstairs and painted to match the upstairs windows--and look appropriate (and good!) for my 100 year old house. I was quoted nearly 3x as much from Anderson for their vinyl wood composite windows, which I didn't think were attractive. What's funny is that the salesman from Anderson didn't follow up with me after I told him what I was considering with Kellemer...I guess they get that a lot. Because I was traveling and only home for a few days when we scheduled the installation, Joe brought his whole crew so that he could complete my house in one day. They've been with him a long time and it shows; they know their stuff. I've never had windows replaced and something I didn't consider was providing a tip for the crew. Joe insisted it wasn't necessary but if a tip for the crew was ever appropriate, it was on that very hot day.

Excellent job, strongly recommend, they were courteous, punctual, budget oriented,

They came to my home several times, & explained to me all my options. They were very patient & thorough. The order was placed & the material arrived earlier than I expected. The installation went very smoothly. Before they left they made sure that everything was cleaned up. I highly recommend them & would certainly hire them again.

The service was fine. We purchased it. I think it was like a three-month window. We had to contact them. So, we did not contact them immediately about it. After we have contacted them, they were able to schedule it pretty promptly. There were no extra charges after they came. We like them. The windows are great. They keep it warm in the winter. We used to have glass. You could see the curtains blowing in the winter time, no more of that. It is quieter. It is a good quality window and they did good work. They work fast. They were very professional. They cleaned up after themselves, and they provided a good product. I think the price was very reasonable for the product and the service. I have always used them twice. I am thinking about using them for some windows downstairs.

Joe came at the time promised to give the estimate, answered all of my questions and kept in contact with me throughout the whole experience. I could not have asked for a better contract experience. The crew came about 9:30 am and were done by about 2:30 pm the same day. I am very happy with the new windows. They are beautiful and well made. They are easy to open and close and fit perfectly. They went the extra mile. I was very nervous about hiring someone to do work on my property, but the Kelemer Brothers did a fantastic job and I will call them again, when needed, and definitely will recommend them to my friends and family.

We needed to replace our 40 yr. old windows and doors. We were not looking forward to this because of stories we had heard about high pressure tactics from window salesmen. We went to Angie's list, looked at almost all of the reviews for replacement window companies and, based on the reviews, decided to call Kelemer Brothers. Gabriel Kelemer came to our house and spent over an hour with us, listening to what we wanted from our new windows - it was very important to us that they were made very well and kept out air, smoke and odors. He then suggested his Fortis Series because of its outstanding construction and additional insulation. He showed us a cross-section of the window and we were able to see how well it was made. When we talked about the entry doors, we again emphasized a tight fit and our concern for safety. Gabriel told us that he was told that most burglars gain entry to a house by kicking in doors, and that with a steel door in a steel frame, this is almost impossible. He also told us that we could get the doors pre-painted, both sides, and showed us the various options for style and color. We ordered the Fortis windows and two pre-painted steel doors. Gabriel said that they would probably be ready in about 8 weeks and that the pre-painting of the doors is what takes the most time. A few days after signing the contract, my wife started worrying that the low e window coating would keep the sun from coming in the house. On a sunny winter day, our heat does not have to be on in the afternoon because of our southern exposure. Also, my wife has seasonal affective disorder and benefits from sun streaming into the house during the winter. I called Gabriel and asked if there was anyway we could have two clear double panes in the windows instead of one with low e coating and one clear. He said he's never had that question before, but that he would certainly call his supplier and find out. Gabriel called the next day and said we could have the clear windows and the glass in the two doors would be clear as well. My wife was ecstatic! When the windows and doors were ready, Gabriel called and we set up a day for their installation - it was about 6 weeks from when we signed the contract. Gabriel said it would probably take one day. Gabriel and his four employees showed up exactly when Gabriel said they would. The whole job took about 5-1/2 hours. We were home while the work was being done and were able to see the professionalism of the workers and their attention to the smallest detail. One of the workers noticed that the bricks on our house were tilting toward the front windows, so he adjusted the flashing in front of the windows to make the water drain away from the house. Gabriel's workers are long-term employees of the company and this shows in how they do their job and in the final result. All the windows and the two doors fit tightly and perfectly! When the job was completed, the crew perfectly cleaned up both the inside and outside of the house. The experience of replacing our windows and doors, that we dreaded, went flawlessly, easily, and perfectly, from the first phone call through the completion of the job. We are thrilled with our new windows and doors and highly, enthusiastically recommend Kelemer Brothers!

Joe was a gentleman and his prices were very competitive. We ended up choosing a carpenter to perform a new window installation - 14 new windows and a 3/4 window door. Kelemer only does replacement windows, no molding, painting, or carpentry, and options for replacement doors are limited to his "custom" size so we choose not to do the work with them. All in all, it was a positive experience and we recommend Joe. Side note, Joe was leaving the country for a week and a half and went out of his way to provide me with an estimate before leaving. The entire process was a very professional experience and the gesture was appreciated.

Kelemer Brothers were very nice and not pushy. They were also very knowledgeable. We had actually gotten an estimate from them, and we liked them, but we had gotten some estimates from other companies that were a lower price. We told them this and they lowered their price for us. They really did an excellent job.

What a great experience! In December, my home was burglarized and our back door was destroyed. While the police were doing fingerprinting, I remembered that Gabriel once mentioned to me that he does doors too. I had his phone number in my cell phone and gave him a call to see if he could do an emergency repair to get my door to close and be secure until a new door could be ordered. Within 2 hours he had his crew at my house to do the emergency repair. They did such a great job, the adjustor for the insurance company commented how good of a job they did. In the next few weeks I met with Gabriel several times to discuss door options. Each time there was zero pressure and complete willingness to accommodate my needs. He had great suggestions and in the end we decided to replace all of our doors (five) with steel doors and steel frames. The steel is wood textured so even when you are up close to it, it is impossible to tell that it is steel. I also brought in two other superservice award winning companies from angies list to competitively price, and Gabriel's price was much better. Since we had used them previously for windows, and still had 3 windows that needed replacing, I also combined it with this job. Most of the time, I do not trust contractors with being in my house with no supervision, but for some reason I completely trust Gabriel and his crew. When the were ready to schedule installation, I was too busy at work to take time off so I gave Gabriel my keys knowing he'll take care of everything. Throughout the 2 day installation, I kept getting emails with pictures and video of the installation to let me know what is going on. I have lead paint in my house and was insistent that strict lead paint precautions were taken. They did a great job with this. If you are looking for a company that sells a great product at a great price, communicates effectively and timely, and does a great job installing, definitely give this company a try. I've used them several times now, and each time they've exceeded expectations. I wish more contractors operating like them, P.S. As soon as I process my pictures/video, I'll try to update the review with them

Everything went very smoothly. Everything was well coordinated, we negotiated the contract, Provider was flexible on reviewing some clauses which i felt needed to be added. They were always on time and everything went as promised. The job was done well, the workers were listening to our concerns and when i asked that all the clothing items be covered with plastic to avoid any dirt - they gladly did that.

Joe Kelemer followed our project from beginning to end and personally supervised the removal and replacement of all our windows. Since we were on a tight schedule Joe expedited the order and what normally would take a 4 week lead time, he was able to get the windows produced in 2 1/2 weeks. Their work is clean, efficient and component . They're not the lowest price contractors out there, but if you want the work done right the 1st time, then these are the people to use. Very highly recommended !!!!

They were amazing...in one work " Flawless". Not one thing went wrong. I am now having them install new windows on my second floor.
