Exterior Door Installers in Dane County

“In late 2011 my wife and I decided to do a major remodeling of our en-suite master bathroom of a 30+ year old house that we have been living in for the past 13+ years. Based on our awareness of Frey’s strong reputation for their quality of remodeling work and referrals, we made the decision out of many options to go with Frey. My wife worked closely with the Frey Designer over a period of a few weeks to develop the design, selection of all of the equipment choices of custom cabinets, sinks, fixtures, toilets, reconstruction of the shower area, lighting and color schemes – we were also helped by the Frey Designer for appointments to the various suppliers to make our final decisions. We were surprised how efficiently the installation and construction process took when there were so many sequencing steps needed. The crew was always polite and very careful about working inside our house. And the Designer/Project Manager was always available to answer questions that came up during the process. And everything was completed on budget! In September 2012 when we noted our 30+ year gutters were beginning to leak, my wife and I made a decision to replace our gutters quickly, including leaf protection, so we would not have to clean out our gutters in the Fall, this year or future years. As mentioned above, we previously had Frey remodel our master en-suite bathroom and this work made a huge difference and exceeded our expectations such that we knew Frey would be our clear choice for either inside or outside remodeling. It is quite amazing the difference a beautiful bathroom area makes as to how you feel when you realize how many hours of your life you spend in your bedroom/bathroom area. Until the Frey salesman explained it to us, we didn’t realize how many options we had to get the right mix of choice for gutters to meet our needs. We chose the Absolute Gutter because it carries more water and it is seamless so leaks don’t develop like traditional gutters. And the patented Big Mouth downspout connection for better water flow away from the gutter made a lot of sense. And when we included the Leakproof gutter protection we now don’t have to worry about cleaning out leaves and debris from the gutters. The Frey installation team did a great job doing the work, was very friendly and took extra care to look after our garden plants and bushes around the edge of the house. However, when the gutters were installed late in September we got a big surprise when the job had been completed. The new gutters added a great architectural impact relative to the standard gutters we previously had. We now recognized comparatively that the old gutters had visually interfered with the line between the roof and the wall. The lines and texture of the Absolute Gutters totally merged into the lines of the roofing and the wood walls. Not only do we now have better functioning gutters, an aesthetically more satisfying look, no leaves to clean out each Fall, I know we have added value to our house. And seven months since the gutters were installed and after torrential and for what seemed like continuous rains in this past Spring, we could not be happier about how the heavy water flows immediately clear our house area. These experiences with Frey Remodeling made them the natural choice to examine the attic area in March 2013 when we discovered that too much heat was escaping into our attic area. Scott Frey came out and went throughout the attic and discovered our 30+ year insulation was no longer effective and that heat was also escaping through ceiling light fixtures. And the most critical discovery was that the 30+ year ceiling light fixtures did not meet today’s code and in fact were a potential fire hazard. The Frey team completed the insulation and replacement of 40 ceiling light fixtures during the next week, a very quick turnaround for what had become a hazard concern to us. And we have already noticed our house is warmer and will also save energy during the summer months. It is without hesitation that I can recommend Frey for any remodeling job to change the way you will feel about your house and potentially increase its value. And they have been on budget every time for major remodeling work at our home. And each time it has been with the full support of their design and production teams who always had our interests in mind as they did their work. I. M. Madison, Wisconsin May, 2013”

“We used Jay Funkhauser to completely remodel two bathroooms and a kitchen and were so satisfied with his work that we hired him to install a finished attic and full bath the following year (2013). The things we like about him are (1) he comes up with creative, yet practical solutions to difficult design challenges (2) he is a good listener (3) he likes to do things the right way rather than cut corners (3) he communicates daily during the course of demolition and construction (4) for the most part, he hires very well qualified tradesman who are polite and respectful and (5) his pricing is reasonable, but not the lowest (see #3). For both the kitchen and the attic, he identified weaknesses in structural support members and took the time to reinforce floor joists and vertical support members. At the beginning of the first job, he asked us about the potential scope of all of the home renovation projects we had in mind. After each demolition phase, he installed extra piping and wiring in anticipation of future projects, which saved us a lot of money in the long run. His finished rooms are both beautiful and functional. His experience with granite helped us choose a tasteful blend of different stones which complement the surroundings. He was very helpful with picking out lighting fixtures and decorative hardware, but he always let us have the final decision. He has a good eye for color and style; he wasn't satisfied with the paint color we originally chose for a bathroom and, on his own, returned to the paint store twice to modify the color before he got what he wanted. As soon as we saw the final color, we know it was perfect. This is one of many such stories that illustrate his attention to detail and the pride he takes in a job well done.”

“knowledgable, responsive, creative. they delivered at every stage of the project. they understood the goal and stayed on task. a good experience throughout.”

“We've had Waunakee Remodeling work on our house several times, and the experience has been fantastic. They replaced all the windows in our house, and what a difference! Not only was the product fantastic (cut our energy bills, absolutely no traffic noise and beautiful windows) but the crew is efficient, polite and very skilled. The firm is now replacing the siding on our home, and it is a pleasure to work with them. The price is right, the consultation was informative and scheduled very conveniently. I know the work will be completed promptly with the highest skill. We wouldn't hire any other company to work on our house--they're that good!”

“SCS Building & Remodeling was hired to remodel our kitchen some 10 years ago and did an amazing job. Due to the quality of Brent's work we referred to others who also hired him. This past year, we hired Brent and his crew to install new windows. The window labor came in under what Brent had bid so we showed him some drywall work that we needed done and 4 trips later the drywall was repaired at no additional cost. SCS Building & Remodeling is always our first choice when hiring work to be done in our home. Trustworthy, professional, honest, and friendly!!”

“Our boat house back wall was caving in. We hired Washa Construction to replace the wooden wall with concrete block. Since the driveway is quite a distance from the lake, there was a lot of manual work hauling dirt from the boat house to the dumpster and concrete block and cement to the boat house. They also had to build temporary walls to support the roof during the construction project. The guys did this during the hotest part of the summer. The job turned out great! We've used Washa Contruction before and have been very satisfied with the professionalism and craftsmanship of the workers. We'd highly recommend them.”

“This company is led by consumate professionals. We hired them first 10 years ago and since have used them 3 more times, including a complete kitchen remodel. We were so satisfied that they are currently working in our home doing a complete master bath remodel and in our second home doing a bath and kitchen renovation. They are invariably on-time and on-budget. There is no 'punch list'. They are perfectionists--seeing things we miss and won't settle for 'just OK' or 'good enough'. They take the time to find out what we want and what our goals are and then use their experience and wisdom to help design the best way to reach them. They offer options and can innovate. They have guided us to solutions we hadn't even considered; they listen to our ideas but focus on our goals and can use their wide experience to meet them, whether it's moving walls simply replacing a cabinet. Our kitchen project resulted in years of smiles for our family and accolades from everyone who sees it. If you want a project done right, done professionally, done seemlessly and without grief, this is the group to use. Again and again without no regrets.”

“Beckman Builders, LLC with Karl Beckman as the owner recently competed a couple projects for me and delivered an exceptional job in quality workmanship, efficiency and cleanliness during and after the completion of the projects. Beckman Builders provided guidance and selection for replacing 2 bathroom exhaust fans which needed a retrofit and they perform exceptioanlly well. A garage service door replacement was also needed and Karl advised and recommended a solution that is functioning very well and will provide a very long and maintenance free service life. The details of the finishing touches when it comes to appearance, function and cleanliness were well above my expectations. Thank you Karl and crew for your craftsmanship and attention to detail.”

“I highly recommend Pat Byrnes. We had just bought a new home and wanted to have the basement finished before moving in. I met with a several different contractors before Pat. I was impressed right away with his knowledge and ability to easily communicate his ideas for our basement. He was a true pro every step of the way, finished the project on time and within our budget. He will be my first call the next time we need a contractor.”

“Under budget. On Time. Over quality. This was the third home construction project my wife and I did and by far the best. The Urso team clearly earned our business after interviewing several builders (including some "big name" local builders). What impressed us the most was their honest "open-book" pricing, 100% unique and custom work, and collaboration throughout the build. I strongly encourage you to contact Urso Bros for your next project. I'm confident they'll do an amazing job for you.”
