The new doors, windows and siding are a great improvement and we thank Ray Ewing for making this process go so smoothly!Posted on Ben Baker2024-07-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Received more window quotes than I’d like to admit given the cost and amount of windows. Went with Preferred Upgrades and was not disappointed. Felt Ray was the most straight forward and honest, and he didn’t try any high pressure tactics like the others. I was nervous about replacing 18 windows in a 100 year old home, but install only took two days and nothing was added on top of the quote. Installation crew was on time and efficient, they cleaned everything up and even put all the blinds back up. Superior service and quality, would highly recommend.Posted on Ian Northcutt2024-06-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend!! Everyone we worked with were extremely professional and helpful. Everything was on time and smooth. We are very happy with our new windows and 8 foot sliding door. They also did excellent work on our siding repairs, even going above and beyond and repairing a couple extra spots of trim around my garage.Posted on Tanya Engelbrecht2024-05-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can not say enough how happy I am with the service I received. Ray was fantastic and you can tell that he values his customers. He stopped by almost every day. We had 53 windows replaced. The end results were beautiful. .
