He was immediately responsive with the initial estimate and for any follow-up items. He was professional and courteous. We would definitely use Inspired Exteriors for any future work."
"I can’t say enough good things about the service provided by Geno and his company, Geno's Siding and Roofing in Holland, PA. They were attentive to my roofing needs, the communication throughout the installation was fantastic and the price for the excellent work can not be matched. If anyone is concerned about having roof work done, worry no more... Geno is the best!"
"Father and son have clearly been doing siding for a long time. They know the little tricks that make the job look professional. Add to that, they are really nice people. Was the price cheap? No. Was the price fair? Yes. They charged literally a third of the quote that I got from one of the big companies. With D&J the fellow who does the quoting is the same guy as the fellow installing the siding. This is the siding company that you have been looking for."
"My husband and I hired American Construction to replace the windows, doors and siding in my home. They did an amazing job. I normally do not write reviews like this, but this companys exceptional work is causing me to make an exception. I very highly recommend American Construction to anyone who needs doors, windows, siding or roofing work. One of my neighbors had their windows and siding replaced by American Construction. They were thrilled with the job and recommended the company to my husband and me. We called American Construction and two very nice, professional gentlemen came to my home to talk to us about our options with the windows, doors and siding. They were polite, respectful and very nice. They took the time to show us their windows, they answered our questions and they tell us about different options that were available. They never did a high-pressured sales pitch. They were knowledgeable about the product. The nicest part was you could tell the genuinely cared about my familys needs. They took the time to ask the right questions, to figure out exactly what we needed. And they actively listened to our needs. Their windows are very high quality and come with a lifetime warranty. All of the products they showed us were Energy Star rated and approved, which was impressive. Their employees are professionals; the quality of their work is exceptional. During the in-home demonstration it was clear this is a quality product. My husband and I were sold. We immediately filled out a credit application; we were approved and got the work done the following week. We cant be happier with our decision. The install crew was amazing. These guys left our home in immaculate condition. Joe, the foreman, absolutely took his time and did a perfect job. He is meticulous. The guys who showed up to do the install were so nice and polite! This was the best experience my husband and I have ever had with contractors. One of the most important things about working with American Construction was that my family felt totally safe around them. We felt safe, secure and comfortable. With young children at home, the safety and comfort level was very important. We knew we could leave these employees in our house unsupervised, without any problems or concerns. Once the work was done my husband and I were so impressed! We never knew how much of a difference new windows, doors and siding could make in our home. Our energy costs have dropped by 20%, and we finally feel safe with the special locks and reinforced glass. We were able to get a tax credit for the Energy Star windows, doors and siding. This is truly and investment in our home and future. The best part of this experience was after the job was completed. The operations manager, Chris, called us a week later to follow-up and make sure everything was okay. And the company has checked back twice in the last year to make sure everything was working properly! At the six-month mark t"
"Jim was here the same day and repaired my vinyl siding. He did a good job saving the siding that was blown off by the wind. The siding is very secure now ready for the next wind storm."
"I just had my roof replaced with Lane Roofing. Shawn Keys was very honest and helpful. He inspected my roof and told me everything that needed to be repaired and replaced and updated me through the whole process and shared photos from start to finish. The crew was great. They showed up early and cleaned up like they were never there. I would highly recommend Lane Roofing & Exteriors."
"Anthony and his team did a great job replacing my damage stucco. Anthony came out quickly to look at the damage and to figure out where water was getting in. He and his team showed up quickly to complete the work. I would highly recommend Derrytresk Plastering and Stucco for any stucco projects."
"We hired JW Tull earlier this year to replace our roof, install new siding and new gutters. The finished product is great! Our contact person was very responsive and any concerns we had during the process were addressed. We then painted the bring on our house white to complete the look."
