My name is Gary Tallman, and I am a semi-retired General Construction Remodeling Contractor of 35 years to Eastern Iowa. We are the home of the perfect install. A few years ago I decided to slow down a little and to simplify things a bit. We did this by narrowing our business advertising focus to primarily market for the repair and replacement of residential and commercial doors, windows, and skylights. It's been a perfect match for me because it takes a full skill set to do this work, and it helps to keep me off the taller ladders..and that makes me a happy craftsman :) I'd like to mention that we chose to honor the community by offering senior and military discounts. D.B.A Cedar Rapids Entry & Window.

AW HOME IMPROVEMENT since 2011. I have been doing construction since I was 14 years old. I have worked with all types of materials and all types of designs. I personally work 1 on 1 with the customers to make sure they are getting what the want and how I am planning on making it happen. Let me help you make your dream home come true.

"I couldn't have asked for a better contractor to complete our roof project. I obtained two other estimates but Adam was far and away the best option. He was priced the best but what really sets him apart was his prompt responses and professionalism. He was the only contractor I didn't have to continually followup with to get answers or schedule a meeting. Everything was on time and completed when he said it would be. Thanks again Adam!"

Alarm or security system installations FAQs

If you terminate your security system before your contract ends, you’ll likely have to pay a cancellation fee—often a percentage of the remaining contract balance. To avoid these fees, consider choosing a brand that offers contract-free plans, like SimpliSafe or Vivint. You can also negotiate with your provider to see if they provide pro-rated cancellation fees or special exceptions.

Paying for a security system is a valuable investment because it enhances your home’s safety and deters criminal activity. With millions of property crimes each year, having robust security measures helps protect your property and might even lower your insurance premiums. It's a worthwhile investment for lasting peace of mind.

The average cost to install security cameras ranges from $125 to $3,500, depending on the amount, type, and placement. To install a complete setup of four cameras, homeowners can expect to invest an average of $1,300 for labor and equipment. Installing multiple cameras gives you comprehensive coverage of vulnerable entry points and enhances overall property security.
