"Josef does excellent work - I would hire him again. He replaced a 15 foot railing in front of my home. He took extra care to match the color of the stain (including sending me pics from the hardware store to confirm). Scheduling took a more back and forth than expected but it was worth the wait."

"We were so happy with McCann from start to finish. We needed to replace our front entry door. The whole process was smooth, communication was good, everything happened on the expected timeline, the quality of the materials was very high, and all of the staff (from the project manager to the installers) were highly professional and pleasant to work with. We also got some good design recommendations that led us to choose a blue door that we LOVE. Highly recommend!"

"My husband and I own two small income properties in Chicago.  One is a inherited 3-flat, the other a 2-flat in which we have lived for over 30 years.  We are not "land barons" by any means.  This year has been a horrible year for things going very wrong at both of these 100+ year old properties.  I am thankful I found Hansen Bros to help us out, especially because we are in our 60's and it's hard to find reliable, trustworthy contractors who won't take advantage.  Bob Hansen meets all of those needs, which is why I have gone back to him for jobs ever since his first job for me in May, 2014. 
The first job he did was a major repair to the open back porch structure and decking at the inherited 3-flat.  I called him in a panic when a neighbor noticed serious structural problems with the porch structure.  Bob came out to assess the situation immediately and provided a very reasonable quote for the repairs.  He began and finished all the repairs within a week at a very reasonable cost of approximately $4,000 - a very good price given the extent of the repairs.  Needless to say he eased my mind and took a huge burden off of me.
Less than two months later in July, we noted structural problems with the enclosed back porch structure at the 2-flat where we live. I again called Bob and he came out immediately to make an assessment.  He provided a very reasonable quote which I accepted. Bob and crew were out within a week to make the repairs.  Along the way, Bob made solid recommendations to do the repairs in the most cost-effective manner.  Those recommendations included replacing the 30-year-old back porch windows with new, smaller windows that would provide additional structural support to the back porch and be easier to clean since they are tilt-in windows.  Because of his recommendation, he was able to install the new windows to both floors of the porch without having to remove and replace all of the exterior vinyl siding.  The end result was a stronger structure, more functional windows, and a much-improved appearance.
Since then we have also contracted Hansen Brothers to make plumbing repairs to both buildings - all at a moment's notice.  He has also painted our ugly purple back porch (it's been that color since we bought the building 30+ years ago) to a pleasing neutral beige color, making the porch so much brighter.  Bob's next job for us begins on Oct 15th when he will replace and repair our seriously leaking garage roof. 
In sum, we have found Hansen Bros to be very fair with their pricing, and they are honest, trustworthy and reliable.  Bob Hansen actually returns phone calls, and promptly!  They do what they say they will do and when they say they will do it.  What more could you ask for?  We are happy we found Bob and cannot recommend him highly enough.

"Trying to execute a major outdoor renovation project during a time of global supply chain disruptions poses many challenges. Happy to report that Mal and PHI navigated that rocky path very well. Mal kept us informed of the many changes coming from the supplier as far as colors and delivery. It was a long process...8 months between signing the contract and having the work completed. In the end we are very happy with the product and the quality of the work. A major windstorm hit the area the day after the work was completed and put the installation to the test. Everything held up perfectly...no loose bits flapping on the house or flying around the yard. In researching this project ahead of time, we had spoken with many friends who've had their siding replaced and none of them were especially happy with their contractor. We had the best experience with Mal and PHI. Highly recommended."

"I have used Murphy's three separate times to replace doors and windows in my home, and I plan to use Murphy's and only Murphy's in the future. The staff are experienced professionals who are knowledgeable and courteous. They take the time to understand what you want and work to provide just that. These are not pushy sales people or amature carpenters; the craftsmanship that is put in to the installation of each piece is wonderful. To date I have had two exterior doors with screen doors, double entry with screen doors, and two sets of casement windows. I plan on replacing 9-12 windows in the next month with Murphy's and I know I will be pleased with the results."

"Everything exceeded my expectations.  
I called Chris in the morning and he was out to give me an estimate by that afternoon.  Chris walked me around the house pointing out what he suggested in terms of surface prep, paint, and minor repairs.  I had an estimate in hand prior to him leaving.
While CQ was ever so slighly more than the other estimates I received, I appreciated the high energy level, professionalism, and sharing of how he would suggest doing things.
Everything went according to schedule, the team was on time for all aspects of the job.
Time:
About 2 hours for power washing
2 days for painting
1-2 hours for the garage door trim and the painting of the house numbers - an unexpected nice touch!
Results: 
The team did an amazing job - far better than if I had done it myself (and I did the prior 2 times).  The team paid attention to all the details, and cleaned up everything after each phase of the work.
We used a low temperature paint as we were doing this late in the season.
It was the little things that made the experience especially positive, from offering to install the new front door lock set to the garage door trim repair to the painting of the house numbers to the attention to detail and precision of his crew.
Chris was easy going and very responsive via email or telephone.  He took care of everything we asked for.

"We hired Paul/PJ Construction last summer and were very pleased with his work. We decided to do another project this winter (rehab basement half bath and create a new finished hall and room in the basement in part of the previously unfinished area) and he recently completed the job for us. It took about a week and a half to complete. WOW!  I am again 110% satisfied with Paul/PJ Construction's work.  Again, his work was of the highest quality and reasonably priced. He transformed the basement bathroom from an eyesore to my favorite bathroom in the house. The work is of the highest quality. The drywalled walls are smooth and seamless; the soffits built around basement pipes are masterfully done and fade nicely into the walls. The floor and backsplash title is even and precise. The painting is meticulous (a soft blue on the walls, white baseboards, and flat white paint for the ceiling). The new toilet, vanity and facet work perfectly. The new bathroom is gorgeous! I am so picky with things like title and painting and I cannot find even a tiny flaw in the work. For the second part of the job, he transformed part of the utility area in the non-finished part of the basement into a new room. The walls were expertly framed around ducts. The drywalling is expertly done. The new walls are plumb perfectly smooth. Needed access panels to certain pipes are expertly placed and blend in nicely. We had him remove a door and part of wall so that the new room and new hall could "flow" into the already finished part of the basement. The work is expertly done. There is no evidence of where the wall used to be. The ceiling (where there used to be a wall) flows seamlessly into the previously finished part. There is no slope in the ceiling etc. and it is perfectly smooth. The electrical work was extremely well done. The relocation of the water heater (which involves soldering pipes etc.) was expertly done. As you can tell, I am pleased with Paul and his helper's work. In addition to excellent work, PJ is flexible and adaptable (we added a few things to the job along the way like recessed lighting in the hall) and he of course gave us reasonable prices for each thing we added. He is also very thoughtful (installed a little hook at the top of an access panel so that our little boys would not be able to open it--we didn't even ask him to!) He is very tidy, lays down tarps to walk on nonwork areas, and cleans up the areas very well. And, he and his helper are very polite. Really nice guys. In sum, my husband and I couldn't be more thrilled with PJ Construction. They can handle a variety of different work (soldering, electrical, tiling, and electrical). This is the second large project we hired PJ Construction for, and again he did an A+ job. We highly recommend his services and will use him again for our next construction project."

FAQs for exterior shutters installation and replacement projects in Lake Villa, IL

The best material for exterior shutters depends on your preferences. Natural wood offers a classic and timeless look but requires more maintenance. Vinyl, composite, and aluminum shutters provide low-maintenance options with modern styles. Consider your design goals and maintenance preferences to choose the material that ensures both beauty and durability.

Professional shutter installers handle the installation of exterior and interior shutters. They ensure precise fitting and secure mounting so your shutters function properly and enhance your home's curb appeal. Hiring an experienced professional guarantees your shutters are correctly aligned and built to withstand environmental conditions, providing long-lasting protection for your home.

Estate shutters cost an average of $2,990, with prices ranging from $300 to $8,400. Their total price varies based on size, material quality, and installation requirements. While they come with a higher price tag, estate shutters enhance your home's security and add a luxurious aesthetic to your house.

Exterior window shutters are worth the cost for many homeowners, offering aesthetic and functional benefits. They enhance your home's appearance, add security, improve energy efficiency, and protect against severe weather conditions. Investing in exterior shutters can increase your home's value, make it more attractive to future buyers, and provide long-term benefits.

Whether it's cheaper to buy new shutters or paint them depends on their condition. Painting shutters costs $200 to $500 on average and can refresh their appearance if they're in good shape. However, replacing your shutters may be more cost-effective in the long run if they are significantly worn or damaged.

Double-hung, casement, and slider windows are most suitable for exterior shutters, as they accommodate standard dimensions and allow for secure attachment. Unique window types like bay, dormer, and picture windows may not work well with functional shutters due to their shapes and incur higher labor costs due to the complexity of installation.
