"Excel told they could replace my roof without any leaking. First time it rained it started leaking in 1 spot. They came out next morning and attempted to fix saying it was probably from high winds while raining and put a little more sealant on a joint but now it’s leaking again and it’s not raining that hard nor much wind this time. I will follow up to let everyone know if they get this fixed. My confidence is fading and if you got a new roof from Excel Metal roofing I wouldn’t just assume it’s not leaking, investigate and pop a few panels to see it there are any signs of leaking, just b/c you can’t see it does not mean it’s dry underneath!"

"Insulation guys were great but the windows are horrible. They let cold air in worse than our old windows. We called them and they finally came out and put a little strip of Insulation on them and they still let in cold air and whistle when the wind blows. We have called and left messages and no calls back. I wouldn't recommend Rolox windows to anyone. Paid around 1000$ per window and still cold air comes in. Never again."

Second, we want you to be able to recognize value in the end product. It's our goal to make sure that all of our customers, if asked "would you do it again the same way & would be able to answer "Yes" absolutely" . 221 has a long history in: Residential and Commercial Management, Construction, Remodeling, Insurance Fire and Water Restoration, Facilities Maintenance.

One of our clients stated: "We really lucked out when we found 221, They helped us stick to our budget and guided us through the biggest project we've ever done. You won't find a harder working, more respectful, conscientious and quality focused bunch of guys anywhere. We won't go to anyone else" Mark H., Kansas City, MO. Free inspections, Free estimates! Locally owned and operated. Licensed and insured, 20 yrs of references.
"I should have listened to other reviews. Seems they are really great with some people, but others leave feeling ripped off. I was in the latter group. Paid $4,000 for "plans" that are incomplete and worthless. We told them our budget was $35,000 for a remodel job. They said they could do it for that, but then only produced floor plans (without engineering, plumbing, or material cost) and refused to get started until we approved just the floor plans. After clicking approval for the floor plans, they gave an overall estimate for $73,000. They refused to ever give a cost itemized. When we asked for them to fix the plans, they refused saying we agreed to the plans. So basically they charged us a ton of money to draw up plans for a $35,000 budget, wouldn't give us complete plans, and then said it would be twice that much to do what they drew up. I'd call that a clear case of bait and switch. I can't say they will treat you like they treated us, but if our experience is what they do even a 10th of the time, you've got to ask yourself if you'd risk paying for something that is worthless only for them to tell you that it would cost you twice as much as you can afford."

Yes, skylights can heat your house. Skylights pull in plenty of sunlight, and that solar gain raises indoor temperatures during bright hours. The extra warmth is great in winter, but can feel stuffy in summer. Keep the heat in check with shades, low-E coatings, or reflective films so you enjoy the light without driving up cooling bills.
A newly installed skylight lasts for eight to 15 years when built and maintained well. Regular cleaning, prompt repairs, and removing obstructions such as leaves and debris help keep the unit in optimal condition. Consistent maintenance prevents premature deterioration and keeps the skylight operating safely and efficiently over its lifespan.
Several issues trigger skylight leaks. The unit may not sit flush with the roof, letting water sneak in, or the flashing and weather-stripping could be breaking down. Sometimes it’s just interior condensation that drips when the AC runs hard against humid outdoor air. A quick inspection tells you which fix is needed.
Replacing a skylight takes between three and five hours under straightforward conditions, with professional crews ensuring safe installation. Larger units, custom shapes, very high ceilings, or hard-to-access areas add extra complexity, extending the work time accordingly. Careful planning and expert handling guarantee a secure replacement process even when complications are present.
It is not safe to attempt skylight repair or replacement on your own because the work involves dangerous roof access, handling fragile glass, and managing a heavy frame. Expert professionals provide the necessary skills and safety precautions, ensuring that installations or repairs are performed correctly while preventing injury and additional property damage.
