"Kevin was very professional and answered all my questions easily. Green Valley was by no means the cheapest quote we received, but we felt comfortable they would do quality work. If the cheapest price is your only concern, then Green Valley is the wrong company for you. We were foremost concerned with quality, and we were willing to pay for the quality we expected. After all, the warranty on a metal roof is only as good as the company who installs it, so I wanted a company that is local and stands by their work. And, they had better financing options that our bank, which was impressive. Kevin was great, and he showed us exactly what brands they used for skylights (Velux) and metal shingles (Decra XD), and he showed us samples of the products and why they were better quality. And, it wasn’t just talk, the samples matched exactly with what materials were used on the jobsite. Believe me, I checked, lol! Green Valley delivered exactly what they said they would. Kevin answered my questions about how they handled jobs that didn’t exactly go according to plan (because customer service definitely matters when things go wrong). A metal roof is a big financial investment, and I wanted to make sure that Green Valley recognized the amount of trust necessary for that kind of expense. Kevin set a great, positive tone for the company. We felt comfortable enough to sign that day, even though I had two more appointments with other roofing companies. The crew that came out to tear off and replace the asphalt roofing was AMAZING. They tore off and replaced the entire roof on the house and garage, installed the giant skylight and my beloved sun tunnel, cleaned everything up, and were done IN A DAY AND A HALF!! I was shocked they were that fast. They cleaned up every single time before they left for the day, and they constantly checked for any nails, which I appreciated since I have dogs. They arrived promptly every morning and were professional and thoughtful to work clean at all times. David came back for the final inspection of the roof, and I thought he would do a cursory, “Ok, looks great, thanks bye” without really looking things over. Boy, was I wrong. David was up on the roof inspecting and touching up here and there for the better part of two hours, and it was hot as **** out. That’s the attention to detail that I chose Green Valley for over the other companies out there. If you are spending this much money, you want someone who is more picky than you are, and for this reason, David is amazing. One small thing that was a little frustrating was the fact they installed the sun tunnel at an angle, not straight down as we had previously discussed. Being hunched over in an extremely hot and cramped attic, trying to make the sun tunnel line up in the kitchen was not fun. Fortunately, David had ordered me the extension kit, just in case, so I was able to correct the problem myself. Regardless, I love that sun tunnel so much, and my only regret is that I did not get another one for the living room or office. It lets in so much light, but without the heat from a skylight! Win win in the summertime! I LOVE MY VELUX SUN TUNNEL! I am so happy with it. We are already talking about replacing all the windows in the house, and I will definitely be calling Green Valley when we do. I have recommended Green Valley to my friends and family, and I would use them again, without hesitation."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

"I cannot say enough great things about EJS roofing. If you intend to have any roof work done, you won't find a company better for the job.  I have a home under contract to purchase and the home required a new roof.  I had obtained a number of estimates and then, luckily, I found EJS roofing on Angie's List.  The estimates I had received from other roofers were much higher than the one from EJS.  Furthermore, these other companies did not perform the thorough inspection that EJS roofing performed.  Finally, these other estimates did not identify all the problem areas of the roof.  EJS is amazing.    
  What complicated this roof replacement is that I did not yet own the home.  So, I had to negotiate with my broker and the seller's broker to try to get the roof replacement done ASAP.  Again Ed, the owner of EJS roofing, was incredible.  The situation was a bit of a pain because of the negotiations and because I didn't yet live in Iowa City. Yet Ed remained patient and professional throughout the process.  His advice was invaluable and he was incredibly flexible in order to accomodate the difficulties of getting a roof replaced when I didn't yet own the home.
   Finally, EJS roofing just completed the roof replacement.  They did a beautiful job and started and ended as planned.  Furthermore, their estimate was completely accurate.
   If you ever need a roof replaced, or simply need repairs done, you cannot go wrong hiring EJS roofing.  Ed and his company are the most professional company I've ever worked with.  I couldn't recommend them more highly.

"    All went perfect! The price was slightly higher than a couple quotes I had, but the other guys didn't explain much of anything & seemed impatient about answering questions I had. Now, my roof looks great & since it's properly ventilated, my new shingles will last longer! Mike & his crew did a great job & were wonderful people to get to know. I am very greatful Mike & his crew were willing to drive from Moline, IL to Wilton, IA to do work for me. Talk about going the distance for your customer! 
    Mike was on the job from start to finish. He came to give me an estimate & spent about an hour explaining what he was going to do and what the different products were that I asked about to use. I also asked for his opinion, which he gave & explained why.  He was very patient in answering all the questions I had and never acted like he was in a hurry to leave. I am greatful he took the time to explain things to my understanding & satifaction without making me feel rushed. I was also impressed to learn that not only do the shingles have a great warranty on them, but Mike has an 8 yr. warrenty on  his work as well!
    While doing the job, Mike & his crew worked well together & were quick, yet they paid attention to details. I was especially impressed when I looked out my window a few times, and saw that the guys that smoked would put their cigs. out & disposed of them in the trash & not all over my yard! Thanks guys! When the job was finished, Mike went around my home to double check everything to make sure that everything was cleaned up & finished correctly. My yard was as clean when they left as it was before they started! He made sure they got every nail they could find & every little scrap of paper, plastic, shingle, etc. that they could find. They also took extra precautions to check my driveway when ever I left or came home to make sure I didn't get nails in my tires. Job Very Well Done Guys!
     Any time I talked with Mike or his crew they were always polite & they were very friendly. Mike is a very respectable man & I would trust to hire him again in a heartbeat! I have some projects in the future I plan to do, & will definatly be calling him when I'm ready to do them. Thanks again, Mike!

"The inspection service was excellent. Trenton explained the inspection process, findings and recommendations clearly. He represents the company professionally, and went above and beyond to help fix another issue that is unrelated to the roof."

FAQs for home inspection projects in Illinois City, IL

Most mobile home inspections require two to three hours to complete properly. The timeline varies based on your home's size, age, and overall condition. Inspectors need sufficient time to examine all major systems, document their findings, and compile their observations. 

If the inspector discovers concerning issues that warrant deeper investigation, the process may take longer. For the most thorough assessment, try to schedule your inspection during daylight hours when visibility is optimal.

Pay close attention to water damage indicators like ceiling stains, warped flooring, or musty odors. Structural concerns, including uneven floors, sagging rooflines, or doors that won't close properly, suggest potential foundation issues. Electrical problems such as flickering lights, warm outlets, or outdated wiring present serious safety hazards. 

Impromptu modifications or repairs performed without proper permits often signal deeper problems. Windows that don't seal properly may indicate structural shifting or water infiltration.

Yes, professional inspectors evaluate the foundation components and anchoring mechanisms during a thorough assessment. They examine support piers, blocks, and tie-downs for proper installation and condition. The inspection includes checking for appropriate ground clearance and adequate ventilation beneath the home. 

Proper anchoring is essential for stability during adverse weather conditions. Foundation issues can affect everything from door alignment to plumbing function, making this a critical part of any comprehensive inspection.

Industry professionals recommend scheduling maintenance inspections every two to three years for manufactured homes. Homes in regions with extreme weather conditions may benefit from more frequent evaluations. Consider arranging an inspection after significant storms or if you notice any unusual changes in your home's condition. 

Regular assessments help identify minor issues before they develop into major problems. Maintaining documentation of these inspections also provides valuable records for insurance purposes or future sale considerations.

Search for inspectors with certifications from recognized professional organizations in your state. Specialized training or experience with manufactured housing is particularly valuable for these unique structures. Ask potential inspectors about their familiarity with HUD standards for manufactured homes. Professional membership in industry associations often indicates commitment to ongoing education and ethical standards. Request sample reports from prospective inspectors to evaluate their thoroughness and clarity of communication.

Many insurance providers consider inspection results when determining policy rates and coverage terms. A positive report demonstrating well-maintained systems and the absence of hazards may qualify you for better rates. Addressing issues identified during inspection demonstrates proactive maintenance that insurers often reward. Some companies offer specific discounts for homes that meet certain safety and structural standards. 

Contact your insurance provider before scheduling an inspection to understand exactly what documentation they require for potential premium reductions.
