We are not taking any new customers at the moment. Thank you.

"Big job to re-grade property to allow for proper drainage and prevent flooding during the spring thaw. Also installed some underground drainage piping to help drain some hard to reache spots. After a couple spring thaws, everything is working great. I would highly recommend this business and won't hesitate to have them come back for any future work needed."

Vinyl by voiles inc. Is proud to announce it has joined Window Depot USA. Never before in our 30 years of business have we ever had a greater window to sell and install in our customers homes. We've always taken pride in having some of the best products and providing great service. Energy efficiency is important to us that's why we offer windows, doors, and siding that far exceed energy star standards. For additional email info@vinylbyvoiles.com

"We started out hiring John to replace windows. In discussions, he asked if he could bid on some siding we wanted done, flooring installation and kitchen cabinet installation. He also was going to replace the garage door. Along with replacing the garage door, he agreed to wrap the trim around the garage door with the same wrap that he used on the windows. His rates were comparable. He wasn't low, but very close to other bids we had. John was on site for the window installation and the siding. Once the flooring installation started and the kitchen started, John was no longer on site. If I needed an update, I had to call John. I should mention that the largest window in the order came in with the inserts crooked. John reordered the window but said it was only 1/8" off. He made it clear he wasn't happy that I wanted the window replaced. The garage door was tentatively scheduled for 3 weeks. I called after 3 weeks and John said it would be in the next week, Thursday or Friday. He came and tore out the existing trim around the garage door and put the new trim on. When he did this, it left a gap all around the garage door. This is a heated garage. It's been very cold in this area but I thought it was only going to be a week. Thursday went by and Friday went by. On Monday I called John to ask about the garage door. He said he had forgotten to call me. The door had come in with a damaged panel and had to be reordered. I will admit that this made me angry. I mentioned to John that the wind was coming through the garage and in the house because he hadn't blocked around the door. He said it "wasn't his fault" the door had come in damaged. He didn't know the garage was heated. Then he said that I couldn't talk to him like that and I was calling him a liar when I said that every person working in this house knew the garage was heated because we kept reminding them to keep the walk door closed. I went to Home Depot and bought insulation and stuffed it all around the door to stop the wind from coming in. I cancelled the door with John because he couldn't tell me when it was going to be delivered. I ordered through another company. The door came in when they promised and it was installed with no problems. Things went downhill from there. The trim on the flooring was done really poorly. The nails weren't punched in and the corners weren't cut nicely. We asked that it be corrected. The wall in the kitchen that they had to shim out to allow for the cabinets to be installed had a problem. They made sure the wall was good for installing the lower cabinets but really messed up the wall above the cabinets where the windows were. When it was pointed out by my husband and son, John said no worries, they would fix that! We kept asking John's workers when they were going to fix around the windows. They kept saying they would get it done today or tomorrow. We asked them 3 times. The last time we asked, they said John told them they weren't supposed to fix that. It took a heated argument between John and my husband with John saying, "I supposed you're calling me a liar too," John agreed to come and trim the window frame so that the trim could be put back up. He made arrangements to do this when the new window came in. Despite the kitchen turning out really nice, if it hadn't been for our designer staying on the installers, there would have been several items not completed, such as trim not finished. I really appreciated the involvement of our designer, Denise Schultz. Well, the new window was bad again! John trimmed the window alright. It's is such a bad job. It looks like they took a chisel around the window. I really think it's payback. Remodeling is difficult enough without having to keep track of the contractor. There are always unforeseen problems. I would not recommend John to do any work. If you encounter any problems, it's not his fault. Therefore, it's not his responsibility. He told us that we were nit picking him. And, if you have any conversations with him, make sure to take notes and have him sign the notes. Otherwise his memory is vague."

FAQs for projects in Madison, WI

A shadowbox fence arranges boards on alternating sides of the rails with small gaps between them, creating an identical appearance from both sides while allowing some airflow between the boards. Standard privacy fences place all boards on one side with no gaps, creating a solid barrier. The shadowbox design requires more lumber to achieve the alternating pattern, but provides the benefit of an attractive appearance for both the homeowner and neighbors.

Installation timelines depend on the length of your fence, site conditions, and weather factors. Professional fence contractors can complete standard residential projects efficiently, while DIY installations require more time, especially if you're learning the techniques or working alone. Factors like rocky soil, slope challenges, or the need for multiple gates can extend the timeline for any installation project.

Maintenance requirements vary by material choice. Pressure-treated lumber requires the most attention, needing to be stained or sealed every two to three years. Cedar and redwood need treatment every three to five years. Composite and vinyl options require minimal maintenance, with only occasional cleaning needed. All fence types benefit from periodic inspections to address any developing issues before they worsen.

Shadowbox fences perform well in windy conditions because their design allows some air to pass through the spaces between boards, reducing the overall wind pressure on the structure. This partial airflow makes them less susceptible to wind damage than solid privacy fences. For maximum stability in particularly windy locations, ensure posts are properly set according to recommended depths based on your fence height.
