"The owner of the company was not involved in much of the transaction other than to answer the initial phone call and make contact for the balance of payment even though he was working out of his home. The salesman who the owner was anxious to get to our home, once we called, was quickly sent out. The salesman resided in Ohio. The salesman, Hari, was super complimentary and well-schooled in salesmanship. He made it his business to waste time promoting affability and friendship, as well as tiring us out before getting to the details. Two hours into the smooze and conversation, Hari, "the closer," began to discuss the work, quality of materials, and price. He simulated bargaining and knocking down costs to get us to sign that evening before getting other estimates. By that time, we were so tired of Hari and so not wanting to talk about siding anymore, we agreed. Besides, Hari said that if he had to come back, the cost would be greater since he traveled from out of town so he could only offer the special discounted price that evening. Totally against the cardinal rule of getting more than one estimate but by this time, Hari had worked his charm and sales training mojo so well, we succumbed. Hari did measurements in the dark with a flashlight before writing up the contract. He later provided homeowners names and addresses (not phone numbers to protect their privacy, he said) so we could go by and see samples of the workmanship. We next met Jerry, the installation manager, who came to introduce himself and get our siding selection. Hari left a sampling of materials, which were not large enough to make an ideal selection so Jerry brought by larger samples, which were helpful. Jerry told us to take our time and to let him know if we needed anything else and contacted us a few days later to get our selection so he could place the order and provide us with an estimated installation date. The work began earlier than estimated and Jerry and his crew arrived on time and ready to work. Jerry kept us abreast of their progress. I questioned the shutters that were taken down and their replacement color to which Jerry replied they were not included in the job. Harry never mentioned there was an extra charge for shutters. in fact, he never mentioned shutters but he was there in the dark, assessing the work and the shutters were black. He talked in the dark about the porch not being included for sofft/facia, nor the columns, which were round that they could not cover adequately, but no shutters. Jerry provided measurements for getting new shutters at one of the home improvement suppliers (at our expense) and said he would put them up for a price because the owner was not agreeable to paying him to do it since it wasn't in his contract. Key Exteriors was contacted. We got a call from Hari who acknowledged his oversight in the name of saving us money. Our dissatisfaction resulted in Key Exteriors agreeing to putting up shutters we purchased from Menards. A different contractor came to replace the gutters. Fewer downspouts were put up than originally in place. The explanation being the newer ones were wider and therefore less were needed. Were the original number in Hari's estimate? We never received an answer to that. A landscaper we contracted a few years prior had placed in ground conductors at the bottom of the downspouts to direct water to the landscaping they installed. These were left off. When we questioned why they were not put back on, we were given the explanation that it might be against a city ordinance. We had to contact our landscaper to find out that they were within code and adjustments were then made. When the work was completed, Hari told us we would do a final walk around with Jerry and the owner. Before that happened the owner called asking for the payment balance. Taken aback, Hari was called. He once more smoothed thngs over by ingratiating himself and promptly seeing to obtaining the check. There were minor corrections to be made that were noted and fixed. We chose Key Exteriors because according to Hari, it was a local and fairly new company that was trying to be competitive and make it. We expected personalized service and honesty. Hari, the salesman did work to portray that image, whereas the owner appeared to want to be hands off. We received the impression that with all the different contractors, including Hari, that the business operates no different from its larger competitors in that it coordinates contractors and makes a profit by doing so. There was communication breakdown between all the players at different times. My husband questioned why no sign was placed in the yard to identify who was doing the work.The workmanship is satisfactory. We called Key Exteriors in the spring to report some minor flaws and Jerry was sent out to correct them. So far their guarantee is being honored. If you meet Hari, just one thing. Make sure he Buys You Dinner First. Hari promised to take us, his new found "friends," out to dinner five or six times. We're still waiting. We wonder if he uses that line because he knows what he's going to do to his customers."

Atlantic Siding began when they said. The job was very extensive and labor intensive as there was a considerable amount of replacement wood involved. They were very professional and always available for questions we had. They let us know about major problems and how they would be handled and whether we approved or not.

The job was completed quickly and the final result was absolutely wonderful. We would definitely recommend Atlantic Siding to others.

"The price was fine. I had the Angie's List deal with them, so it was good. I thought Barrier Windows final product was very good. We had a couple of hiccups, because they had to scheduled along with with siding people. There were a couple of scheduling hiccups. I did end up having an window broken. The guy slipped. His ladder slipped, and something ended up fallen into the interior window. Some of the discussions about the windows it all was finally fixed, but it certainly didn't add to the experience, and he got hurt. He got a really big gash, and had to go to the hospital with his arm."

"Eric and his crew did a great job installing new siding on our home, along with associated work on windows and trim areas.  The work was done well, and the final cost was at quoted amounts.  I would certainly recommend Maximus to friends and family."

"They power washed the house, prepped it and then applied the coating

"We had used Legacy previously for windows and we called them about our kitchen project. Mark came back out and we discussed the goals we wanted and what our budget was.I showed Mark online the things we liked and he came back with a proposal that was workable. Legacy is not a huge company and we always spoke with Mark when we had questions. That was nice. The project was involved. In addition to the kitchen needing a new floor, fixtures, counter tops and cabinets, we cut a hole in the side of the house and put a large window there. More light in the kitchen is fantastic! The project took more than 2 months from start to finish. It was a little longer than we anticipated but we understood. Legacy has talented carpenters but not a lot of them. Mark and Robert both told us it would be nice and that can take a little time. They were right. The attention to detail was awesome. And as the project unfolded we did make small changes on the fly. Those were a difference maker. we love our new kitchen and we look forward to getting our master bath done next by Legacy. If you're considering a project, call these guys, nice people, easy to work with and the results have been great."
