Built on Integrity, Reliability & Local Expertise
When it comes to upgrading your home, details matter. At Preferred Upgrades, our detailed workmanship in Jacksonville FL sets us apart. We combine precision installation, durable materials, and a customer-first attitude to deliver exterior improvements that last.
Whether you need new windows, doors, siding, or a full lanai or sunroom conversion, our experienced craftsmen handle every project with care and accuracy.
A Contractor You Can Count On
Any contractor can say they’re “obsessed with detailed workmanship.” But at Preferred Upgrades, we walk the talk. Here’s how…
Here’s an industry secret: Many window, door, and siding contractors use the cheapest materials possible so that they’ll make more profit. But this almost always costs YOU more in the long run. They break down faster, lead to product failure, and do not stand the test of time.
At Preferred Upgrades, we use only the finest materials to install your windows, doors, sunrooms, siding, and lanai conversions. This means we use a 50-year sealant instead of a 10-20-year sealant like some other companies. And we use high-performing spray foam to insulate around your new windows instead of cheaper roll foam insulation.
For us, it’s real simple: high-quality materials = high-quality results.
Did you know it takes special skills to retrofit your windows? It’s true. New construction window installation and window replacement require two very different skill sets.
Fortunately, our window replacement team has those unique skills. They know precisely how to cut out your old window without damaging the structure of your home. They know how to work correctly with stucco (a popular home material in our locale). And they know the dangers of caulking over a mistake instead of truly fixing it as some inexperienced window installers often do.
No. Retrofits are not for the faint of heart. It takes an experienced retrofit expert to replace your windows. And we’ve got them.
Some other Jacksonville contractors are okay with the bare minimum when it comes to install standards. But not Preferred Upgrades.
Our install standards go above and beyond the call of duty. Each of our projects is assigned a Team Leader who ensures your project is completed to the highest of standards, leaving you with quality results and a stress-free experience.
And because our teams know how to communicate with each other, everyone knows what their specific task is, how to do it expertly, and is held accountable by our Team Leader. This keeps your project moving smoothly, while our final walk-through ensures nothing goes left unchecked.
What’s another way our window, door, and siding replacements are detail-obsessed? Our cleanliness!
Before we start our projects, we lay down drop cloths to protect your home, as needed. Then, we clean as we go, ensuring our work area is tidy before moving on to the next. And we always conduct a final sweep to ensure no scraps or debris are left behind.
Maybe it comes from our owner’s (Ray Ewing) background as a Marine who scrubbed showers with razor blades. But that’s the level of detailed cleanliness you can expect from us.
Our motto? “Leave the property better than you found it.”
The state of Florida requires exterior home improvement contractors to give customers a one-year labor warranty. We give you THREE YEARS. That’s our Preferred Promise.
Our Preferred Promise states that if ANYTHING arises within the three years after your project is completed, we’ll come back out and make it right. And if that wasn’t good enough, you can rest easy knowing many of our products are covered by their trusted manufacturers for LIFE.
Plus, our window, door, and siding limited lifetime warranties are transferable, adding even more value to your home. And with our established manufacturers, you can rest easy knowing your investment is protected for the long haul.
