    We recently had almost all the windows in our house replaced by the team at Scientific Home…read moreServices, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Not only do the new windows look sleek and modern, but the entire process was top-notch from start to finish. What really stood out to us was their honesty. While other companies tried to sell us on full-frame replacements, SHS actually advised us to go with insert replacements. They pointed out that our house has high-density older wood framing that was worth preserving. Following their advice preserved the character and strength of our home while saving us a significant amount of money. Their communication was excellent throughout the project, and the installation crew was fantastic: punctual, respectful, and meticulous about keeping the worksite clean. On top of that, their guarantee is rock-solid. I feel completely confident that this was a lifelong investment and that they will stand by their work if anything ever comes up down the road. If you're looking for high-quality window replacement with an honest team you can trust, highly recommend Scientific Home Services.

What I appreciated the most was his complete honesty. Jon listened to what I wanted to achieve and gave me advice on how to preserve the original doors and character of my house. That level of customer service is rare these days and greatly appreciated. Moving forward, I would certainly recommend Jon and Scientific Home Services If you're looking for expertise from an honest team you can trust.

    Max and his team are #1!! We were in the market to replace our old windows and saw Max's reviews…read moreand we were impressed. When I called to speak to Max he was very genuine and upfront with all the information he provided and honestly he had the best prices in the North Shore. As a Realtor in Northbrook it is always great to have access to a company / CEO who cares about his clients. Max delivered exceptional service and great pricing. His installation was flawless and the people who did the job were very respectful. They wore masks and cleaned up very nicely. I highly recommend Max and all Star for your homes window and sliding glass door replacements. I even got to shoot some Billiards with Max wow. Besides being a great window businessman he is also a great pool player. A+ Thanks Sam Rosengarten Coldwell Banker Northbrook / Home owner

    In fall 2024, I hired All Star to replace 6 older windows on the southwest facing side of my house,…read morewhich had been impossible to maintain at a consistent temperature. My experience working with All Star was great from start to finish and exactly what you would hope for in a contractor. Dave responded quickly to evaluate the project, he was attentive to my concerns and what I needed, and he presented me with a range of quality and price options. Based on my research and competing quotes, the cost for my chosen option was reasonable. I wanted better windows and I knew they would take a while longer to manufacture. Unfortunately, we were up against a deadline with winter coming and weren't able to sneak the job in before the weather turned consistently bad. It was definitely worth waiting for though. On the day of installation, the crew arrived on time, were very professional, and they did a fantastic job. I would definitely hire All Star again for another project based on price, quality, and service. (This next piece will not be of interest to everyone, but if you are a single female homeowner, I think you know what I'm talking about when I say that a genuinely respectful contractor who listens and doesn't just flex, lecture you, and then try to hard sell you something you don't want is a gem. Dave never asked where the man of the house was either, so thank you for that. Amazing that I have to be grateful for being respected but that's where we are. Thank you, Dave.)

It estimated to be a 4 -6 week lead time. So will update again once we go through the replacement process... I was trying my best to avoid having to write this review but since I cannot get any updates or response pertaining to a quality warranty issue with my exterior door window frame, I felt I had no other choice but to share my experience that I have had with McCann Windows and Exteriors. I purchased 2 ALBANY exterior doors from McCann back in June of 2024. In October of 2025 I noticed that the window frame on one of the doors had shifted and instead of a uniform space around the window frame the bottom right portion now was flush against door frame with a portion overhanging the door frame. I contacted McCann in October and that is when my now almost year long odyssey began. I have spoken via email, text and voice messages with at least four different representatives including the owner, the production manager, a project manager, service tech and others who seem to all follow the same playbook....they apologize for the delay, promise to get back to me with an update and then nothing. I have had to continually go back to them for an update, a status, anything to put this behind me. The last I heard from them was on June 4th, 2026. ..Waiting 10 months to get a resolution is not what I call good customer service. During this period I received regular marketing emails and texts talking about how they treat all their customers as family and appreciate us, but based on my experience this has not been the case. The true measure of a company is how they treat their customer after the sale and specifically how they handle any issues. The doors have a 10 year warranty and specifically a section pertaining to door glass frames. Apparently it may take me that long to get a solution. I am not looking for any more apologies I just want a straight answer. I have all the emails, texts and occasional voice mails that they have sent me and plan to provide regular updates on my experience until it is resolved.

    I can't say I was thrilled when we were in the middle of a bathroom renovation and already pouring…read moreway too much $ for our home and we discovered (thanks to a few rainy days) that we needed new french doors leading out to our backyard. I'm usually not one to spend time getting a bunch of quotes and just rely on Yelp reviews to make a purchasing decision, but this was pricey enough purchase that i figured I should do my due diligence.' Siding & Windows Group was one of the 4 companies I had come out for a quote. We ended up with them for a few reasons: - Their quote was competitive - They were able to spray paint the interior trim with our existing paint color - They were able to match the exterior trim as closely as possible to our windows outside - Anthony at Siding & Windows Group was very responsive We placed the order on August 22nd, which is my bday. I can't say new doors was what i wanted for my bday, but i guess this is being a homeowner in your 40s. The new doors weren't installed until November 6th and we just hoped for no big storms and got lucky. Anthony checked in a few times on when they'd be installed and pushed it back a few days due to other projects. The actual installation took about a day, which wasn't too bad. A week later they came to spray paint, which honestly seemed like a much bigger project than installing the doors. That took 2 days and went smoothly, although there was a little confusion about them not knowing what color to paint, etc. It turned out beautifully and while the doors look very similar to our old doors I like the look of these even better. The exterior finish isn't a perfect match, but i think a big part of that is our old paint on our windows as faded. One day we'll touch it all up, but for now we're looking forward to a break in paying for anything for the house. I learned there are a lot of companies in the area for new windows/doors, but we were satisfied with this one and would use them again.

    Siding & Windows Group was great start to finish. Rocco was very helpful answering all our…read morequestions and helping us to make selections for siding (and soffit, facia, window framing etc.) which let us realize our vision. They were prepared for bumps in the road as well (weather) and kept in good contact throughout the process and actually listened to us when we had questions or momentary concerns they put us at ease with the information we sought. It's a big purchase, but they made us feel confident in our decision by their actions, and we LOVE how the siding looks, and what it's doing for us since the install (Alside Ascend vinyl). We went ahead and replaced soffit, facia and even had new gutters formed and installed - and not once did they pressure us for those additional items. Just a great experience and we're so glad we went with SWG. Thanks!

The only downside to the experience was that we found nails/screws in our driveway for weeks after, and we had to have them come out and fix the gutters (the downspout needed to be extended for proper drainage). It wasn't a perfect experience, but we're happy with our siding and I'd be happy to use them again.

Contracted with them to replace…read moreseveral entry doors in our home back in 2019, Covid happened and the install got delayed perhaps a year? Not their fault at all, it seemed like they subcontracted the work to some other company when it came time to install, though. Part of the back door wasn't done right so I had to make the comment to the installers that I will have to wait to pay until it was fixed, it got fixed immediately after that. After that, gave them another try to remodel our master bathroom. Met over Zoom June of 2022, met in person later that month, we were ready to sign a contract that day if they had one, but we waited, and waited, and waited. Reached out in early July, then again in late July, told in early August that they'll have the bid for me shortly. Never heard from them again. Decided to try one more time this year for a siding project. Filled out their online form, was called by someone and reached back out mid-June and never heard back. I really don't mind if a company doesn't want to do business with a particular customer, just let me know so I don't spend time trying to reach out and spin my wheels. The ghosting is really unprofessional.

It took us a year to make all of our decisions about the scope and details of our project and Jacob patiently, expertly discussed every decision-point with us, over time, via text, phone and several stops out to our house..

All team members were timely and friendly through the process and Jacob followed up to ensure every detail was top notch. The beautiful results are the talk of the neighborhood. Highly recommend!

From the initial consultation, to providing a…read morequote, answering questions, install day, and follow-up, he was responsive, and a perfectionist. We had two condo units in our building update windows as well as two back hallway windows, and Jacob provided a highly competitive quote. He was kind and patient when we waited for other unit owners in the building to decide, and did not push us to move quicker or make a decision when we were not yet ready. Ordering windows took a few weeks and teams on install day moved swiftly and kept the area clean after! I also want to note that we live on the 3rd floor of a condo building and many contractors said they could not install and/or needed additional materials, external infrastructure and costs to do the project, but Jacob made it seamless with bringing windows up the stairs, and doing an internal install, which incurred no extra install costs. This was also great as it did not impact our neighbors and kept the project contained and clean. Jacob really cares about being transparent and has earned our trust, and I would 100% recommend him and his team to anyone looking to install new windows in their home. Overall, we really highly recommend Jacobs 1 Construction! I cannot say enough great things about the quality of their work, competitive pricing, and their dedication to their customers.

She was pleasant at first then called me back and told me her worker said he was told by the gentleman here that they did not have to worry about there mess he would take care of it, he didn't want them on his property... 1st off there was no man here ( no one was home at all...) 2nd one of the guys was already on the property picking up the big pieces of trash they let go. She said well he did run his magnet over your driveway, There's NO possible way he did with all the nails that were left and we also have 3 cameras that face our driveway 1 points straight down it one across it and the other the front and the only time it picked anyone up was when he was here picking up the big mess! She did tell me they would be here the next morning between 7-8 am I am still waiting for them but when I called her to ask if there was an eta she blew up on me, was Cussing me out and Hung up on me, Again this was all caught on camera, when I told her I am leaving a review. I have been NOTHING but nice and understanding of them... THIS IS NOT EVEN A COMPANY THAT WAS DOING ANY WORK FOR US BUT A NEIGHBOR!!
