When I first realized i needed to replace our french doors leading out to our backyard I had no idea how expensive they would be. I had a little bit of sticker shock from the first quote so decided this would be worth getting multiple quotes on. And Home Build was one of them due to their stellar Yelp reviews. I called them and they were able to send Oscar out right away. They told me to save 60 -90 min for the consultation, which seemed like a lot of time considering every other company just needed 5-10 min of my time. However, i was willing to invest the time for the right doors and right price. Oscar and i met for over an hour. He was super friendly and knowledgeable about all my door options. He brought along a presentation (via his ipad), as well as materials so we got it all done within that hour. The other companies took a lot less, but resulted in a few trips to my house and lots of back and forth via email. I honestly probably prefer the latter since less time all at once. In the end I went with a different company due to price, but thought this company offered a good product at competitive pricing so would be worth looking into them. read more

Everything was great. I tried getting a quote from Anderson and they didn't show, Next was twice the price, and Home Build was professional and everything was great. read more

Home Build is a great window company and I will be using them again. The buying process was easy. Diana was professional and friendly. There was no hard sales presentation, just quality information and pricing. Within days we had a measurement appointment and within weeks, new, beautiful windows. The installers arrived on time and were very efficient and detailed in their work. I cannot be happier with our new Pella windows. Do not hesitate to give them a ca read more

Last year, a hail storm came through my subdivision and did a lot of damage to my roof. I spoke with Max V. and he came to assess the damage with in 24 hours!

I highly recommend him and this company if you are in need of repairs, it is well worth the value. He goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy, that's hard to find anymore. Thank you, Max! read more

Had an original service door replaced. Every part of this experience down to the installation and outcome is 1st notch. Very professional and friendly from the 1st sales contact to their install team. Company owner came to measure and inspect job site. Very knowledgeable guy who takes pride in his work, offerings, and install team. I was expecting damage to the original door trim since it was the one that was built into this 1960's home. Was impressed it all went back together perfectly and the no more massive drafts into the house. Wish all contractor experiences went this way! read more

We needed to replace 2 windows in our home. They responded quickly to our request for an estimate. Nick was the representative we dealt with. He was friendly, very knowledgeable and helped me a lot with choosing the right kind of window replacement. He had several examples of colors and even samples of the windows with him. Setting up the appointment for the installation was quick and easy. The owner came out to do an official measurements for the windows before ordering. Nick had also done a set of measurements but I like that they double checked their numbers! The owner was very friendly as well. Other places I contacted had me do the measurements and gave me an estimate based on that. The installers were on time, called about 30min before they arrived. They worked quickly and had the two new windows installed in about 3 hours. They vacuumed up after their work was completed and showed me exactly how to operate the new windows and screens. Their estimate was in the middle of the other estimates I got but I felt very confident after meeting Nick and speaking to him as well as after reading other reviews. I would absolutely use this company again! read more

I highly recommend HomeBuild. I had all of the windows and 2 sliding doors replaced in my house a couple of years ago and they did wonderful work. This week I needed a downspout replaced and Steve was quick to respond, come do a color match, and within 24 hours I was scheduled. As before, service went without a hitch. If you're looking for a reliable, affordable, and fair company with pleasant people who are respectful and kind? HomeBuild is the one. read more

Home Build very recently completed a project for us involving the replacement of five very large Pella windows in our sunroom (former porch), located on the second floor of our graystone two-flat and siding. Steve, the owner was knowledgeable in explaining what was needed, and provided a clear, rational bid without the heavy sales pitch other firms gave us. Our project involved the removal of the existing windows, repair of the frames, and installation of the new windows. This meant the accurate placement of - in one case - a 350-pound tripartite window unit. A team of five men accomplished this in less than six hours, with skill and precision. The second team came in the same day and installed the siding, a composite cladding called Alside Ascend. This product is better-looking than vinyl, and has built-in insulation. Their attention to detail was complete and careful, and by 6:00 pm the following day they were done. Both teams took care to leave our garden in good condition, cleaned up after themselves, and were polite and informative. The entire process - from the original contact and estimate - to the completion was satisfactory in every way, and the cost was quite reasonable. This is a first-rate firm and they receive our highest recommendation. read more

I've had a lot of contractors come through my home in the last couple years, and HomeBuild is one of the few companies who really stand out from the rest. I put out a bid on Thumbtack and received a quick response from Steve, the owner, letting me know their team could assist with my window needs. We scheduled a date for a free estimate. When Steve arrived, he took care to put on some booties over his shoes to ensure he didn't dirty my home. Steve carefully listened to what I was asking for and made thoughtful suggestions on window selections for both my porch and kitchen. He measured and then plugged the numbers into his computer to provide me with an estimate right on the spot. I was pleased to see that the costs were very affordable compared to another company's estimate I received earlier that week. Shortly after I agreed to the project, Steve came by and re-measured the windows(good sign!), collected the deposit, and placed the window order. Not too long after the paperwork was in order, he scheduled the install date. AND, imagine, the day Steve scheduled for install was the day the install was actually performed!! The day before the install and the day of the install, there was constant communication of when the job was starting, who was on the premises, who would be arriving to pickup the last payment, etc -- AMAZING!! There were two workers, Tom and Matthew, who diligently and quietly worked all throughout the day to complete the job. I watched them level the windows, fill gaps with insulation, and effortlessly caulk all around the windows. The guys have perfected the craft of window install. Thank you, Tom and Matthew! The windows look beautiful!! At the end of the day, Martin (Steve's business partner), arrived to inspect the work. He made sure I was happy with the job and pick up the last payment. Martin also took care to take his shoes off when he entered the home. Such good manners! This is one of the most smoothly run projects ever completed in my home. I have high praise for Tom's and Matthew's workmanship. Martin and especially Steve took really great care of me as a customer. They made sure I had peace of mind from beginning to end. In these times, it can be very challenging to find dedicated, trustworthy, caring, on-time, fair costing, service-oriented contractors. Look no further because HomeBuild possesses all of those qualities. Thank you Steve and Martin! I love my new, beautiful, Pella windows!! I look forward to working with HomeBuild again in the future -- next time for siding ;) -- Lillibeth read more

Steve and his team were wonderful to work with, they came when they promised and were done when they said. The team was always polite and respectful of our family. Thanks again for your great work and we love our new windows. Cindy in Deerfield read more
