This experience was great from beginning to end! Joe, from Shading Solutions contacted me, we made…read morean appointment. He was accommodating with my schedule and showed up on time- actually early! We talked, he shared the history of the company (30 yrs in business, I remember correctly) and reviewed what we were hoping to replace- he showed me what Shading Solutions could do- measured, twice, and we were on our way. The date he told me to anticipate our awnings should be delivered and one week before, contacted me to say we are on schedule! The awnings were delivered and we set a date for installation. The day before, Kurt Lamothe, the installer, came to look at the awnings and to check out the job site, impressive! Not waiting for 'day of ' - being proactive shows professionalism ~ so appreciated in this day! The installers show up, again, professional and friendly and EARLY! Again, I was impressed because as they're installing, Joe, my sales guy, shows up just to make sure all is going well and that I was satisfied. He even texted me after to say there is a windy storm rolling in so make sure to roll up the awnings as they were just installed. The guys picked up all the wrappings and left not one piece behind. Oh- and the price was fair, no hard sell or upsell. Will post pics later ~ but we are VERY satisfied to find a company and people who are professional and are great at their jobs! Thanks Joe, Kurt, Kurt Jr and Cliff (?) I apologize if I got the name wrong!

We hired EDG, which is connected to Midwest Arbor (father and son businesses), to install a…read morelouvered pergola in 2020. A few months later, half of it stopped working. They came once to repair it, never finished, and we've had a partially functioning pergola ever since. As we prepared to sell our home in 2025, we hired them to fix it for the new owners. After two service visits, the pergola went from half working to not working at all. They couldn't locate the wiring they had installed themselves and still billed us for both days. Never have we had a service come to our house, be completely unable to help, bill us, and leave it worse than before. When we asked (multiple times) to speak to Jacob, the owner, he refused to email us back, refused to call us back, refused to come out to fix what his guys left unusable, and said our emails were "less than friendly," even though they were perfectly polite and representative of a frustrated customer. I would be happy to share the emails with any potential customer. Overall, we found the company unreliable, unresponsive, and completely unprofessional. We would not recommend EDG (or Midwest Arbor) to anyone looking for lasting work or dependable customer service.

We recently had an aluminum fence installed by Fence Connection, and we couldn't be happier with…read morethe results! From start to finish, the experience was excellent. The crew paid close attention to detail, made sure everything was done right, and left the property spotless when the job was complete. The fence itself looks wonderful and really elevates our yard. What impressed us most was how quickly they were able to start--weeks faster than other companies we contacted. Even though it was a big project (about 400 feet of fence), they completed it in just two days without cutting corners or rushing the work. Their pricing was very competitive, and the entire team was professional, friendly, and easy to work with. After getting several quotes, we felt Fence Connection offered the best balance of value, speed, and quality.

Kyle is amazing, if you are looking for shades stop looking and get on his list because in my…read moreopinion you will never find a better shade company. He is honest, informative patient experienced and in my opiinion was made to be a shade contractor. He is all of those things and more. My wife was loosing her sight and we called his company. We needed some one who was going to help us with our problems and he did muuh more than we expected. He was about half done in our living room whem my wife noticed a bit of light that was bothering her, we did not say anything because he did everything that he said he was going to do. But Kyle over heard us and with a good deal of extra work he changed the installed ones and fimished the job where every thing was completel perfect and never charged us a penny more.

Very poor experience. Nate showed up and reviewed my $10k project and said he would get back to me…read morethe next day with an estimate. A week later, after not hearing from him, I followed up and he texted back "sorry for wasting your time. We simply don't have time in our schedule until fall..." I told him that would work and he said he would get quote out next day. I agreed to the proposal. A couple weeks later they wanted to come out and review with us again. They set up a time and Nate showed up and supposedly rang my bell on the side, not the front door, and left. I asked if he was coming, they said "Nate rang bell and went around back for 5-8 minutes before leaving". This was a blantent lie. I have cameras recording on my driveway. I reviewed and he rang a non-working side doorbell, waiting for 1 minutes, sat in his car for 2 minutes texting and left. He never went to the back which is where I was working in the basement waiting for him. If he had used the front door, my ring would have alerted me he was there. They said he would come back at 4:15. I asked Jackie if he was coming back. She said yes at 4:15. I asked her to call me. This was 2 months ago and I still haven't heard from them. Glad I didn't use them.
