Get matched with top exterior trim installers and replacers in Silver Spring, MD

"Maxim Naftchi (owner of Fox Creek) came to our home as scheduled to have a look at what we wanted done.  He arrived at around 5 pm and stayed until close to 11 pm.  His routine includes taking rough measurements, drawing detailed sketches of the house along with pictures, measurements and other notes, and presenting the potential customer with actual samples of siding and windows (miniature scaled) and finding out our likes, dislikes and cost budget limits.  By the time he left, we had a final written estimate and a very detailed preliminary contract.  He was very low pressure, paid attention to our likes/dislikes and made great recommendations.
There was a couple of weeks delay in getting the job started while the products we ordered were being shipped, but Maxim's crew went to work as soon as all of the materials were staged on our property.  We had been under the impression that there would be several different crews working on different tasks, but all of the work was completed over about 3 weeks (it rained a few times during this period) by just two carpenters.  The only exception to this was a separate crew of around 5 or 6, who put on the gutters & downspouts (in probably an hour) and returned the next day to install gutter covers which they'd forgotten the day before (for all of about 20 minutes).  Freddy and Harold (the primary crew of two carpenters) took longer than we expected (since we were expecting a larger crew) but much shorter than what one would expect for only two workers,  All of the trim work was custom bent and cut meticulously on site,  The first day they were here they replaced every one of our 17 windows and the front door & sidelights, and nearly all sealed. Because the siding work had to be delayed every time they reached a window, light fixture or outlet for which trimwork was to be bent, cut and installed, it was a little painful having to look at exposed Raindrop (tyvec) on the house for so long, but the finished product was every bit worth the wait.  The exterior of our home was completely transformed and we're 100% satisfied with the transformation.  We feel that the total cost was reasonable for the job performed.  We'll try and attach a "before and after" picture to this review once we figure out how to do it."

"They did an amazing job on house exterior: rotten wooden trim was replaced and all wood wrapped with aluminum foil. Very good communication, timely updates, even extremely cold weather did not stop the crew from working. Itemized contract and reasonable pricing. I would highly recommend this company!"

"Home Genius Exteriors contracted to replace the roof. Emmanuel showed up as the Project Manager with a solid crew. They performed the roof replacement exactly as discussed in the contract. Highly professional, respectful and efficient. Thank you HGE!"

"The window replacement crew was very efficient. They were careful not to disturb anything inside or outside the house. They explained the installation process very well and did a great job of cleaning up when they were finished. And I love the new windows!"

"Calix provided us with excellent and highly skilled carpentry services on multiple occasions. They’ve done several projects for us now, including replacing a bannister on our stairs (which included a new hand rail design), replacing a step on our indoor stairs as well as our gazebo outside, and designing and building a set of built-in shelves and cabinets. Carlos’s work is extremely high quality. He has excellent attention to detail and is very professional and timely. We happily and gladly recommend him for any carpentry services."

"Professional and affordable, did a great job on our pergola install!"

"The process up to the QA Inspection was excellent. People were friendly and knowledgeable. Austin was excellent at giving honest answers to all our questions. When I asked him one he couldn’t answer he didn’t try to BS his way through, he simply said he didn’t know and then proceeded to make calls until he got an answer. At the Pre-install inspection we were told the install crew would arrive between 8-10. The install crew chief was very surprised to hear that when he arrived at 7. The installation was also excellent. Done and dusted by 4PM. The QA inspection cost you an excellent rating. It was little more than a high pressure sales pitch to replace my aluminum siding with vinyl. I just spent $20K on a new roof and he pressured us to spend another $40K on something that doesn’t need to be replaced. Not cool. I would definitely recommend Power, but with a caveat on the QA inspection."

"So please that I went with JW. The side entry porch had rotted wood throughout and the steps were sagging. Also, exterior house paint had been removed years ago but prior owners did not address one side of house, probably cause it was hidden behind crepe myrtles. Crepe myrtles are now gone and that wall is very visible on the street. Also there were some little jobs needed around the house such as replacing rotted boards above the garage. Got a quote from JW in late April and scheduled the work for the week of July 21 for 6-7 days of work. Two workers showed up promptly on the 21st and did a great job. Very pleased with the JW crew as they kept me posted on the progress throughout the job which was completed in six days. Wish I could post before and after pictures as it looks fantastic"

"Overall, I had an outstanding experience with everyone from John Krause Construction. Their customer service was most impressive. They asked about and worked around my schedule, were all prompt, courteous and friendly, and showed a true desire to complete the work to my satisfaction. Their explanations of the work to be done and the time it would take were clear and accurate. They started the work in less than a week after I signed the contract, and completed it in a week. This was well beyond my expectations since a lot needed to be done, including drywall repair and painting some hard to reach areas, shingle repair, gutter cleaning, and concrete step repair. Their cost estimate was competitive and fair. There were a couple hiccups along the way, including matching the interior paint color and trouble with installing a door handle, but everything worked out ok. I would certainly hire them again for any general home repairs/improvements."

"The project was to power wash cedar fence surrounding the property and to power wash the exterior vinyl siding of the house. After power washing, the cedar fence surrounding the property was sealed with Thompson's clear wood seal and white paint was applied to the wood trim on the exterior of the house. Two wood repairs and replacement were made to a door trim and the railing of the front porch steps. The owners Jose Fuentes and Edward Sanchez were absolutely fantastic. Their staff was equally great and I highly recommend this firm."
