Gutters needed replacing. The guys from Pulse Exterior came out gave me a nice estimate which included leaf guards and of all the estimates this was the best since it included leaf guards. They sent pictures of the progress and even helped my neighbor out by installing a down spout for her before going to their next job. I've already recommended them to several people already hope they call you guys, but thanks for a job well done my gutters look much better now read more

04/20/2022 - Derrick finished our gutter replacement job yesterday. We lost the gutters on the south side of our little bungalow in the heavy snow last winter. His crew finished quickly and the job looks great. He also placed a rain barrel diverter on a downspout. It was smooth sailing - received estimate, signed contract, completed work, and done. read more

Derrick got my project done ahead of schedule and done professionally. He left my rooftop project cleaner than it was when he started and seriously upgraded my roof. I will be using his services again! read more

I needed to replace some siding on my detached garage, and contacted Pulse Exterior for an estimate. Derrick got back to me promptly, and arranged to come and evaluate the work. In addition to the siding, I also needed new soffit/fascia and gutters installed on a portion of the garage. Derrick gave me a reasonable estimate based on the work & materials. The work was scheduled and completed in a very professional and reliable manner. Derrick was able to exactly match the existing siding, and the gutters and soffit/fascia were installed with high quality. Everything went very well, and the end result on the garage is better than it ever was! I'm very happy with the outcome, and would definitely recommend Pulse Exterior for work of this type. read more

Hired this company for a second project after being very pleased with the first. They replaced my front door. All I can say is wow, what an outstanding job they did. Typical of an older home they discovered that my old door had been installed the wrong way with shortcuts. They removed the entire frame and placed a much more energy efficient door. They corrected the mistakes by building a new frame and adding much needed insulation. Cleanup afterward wax top notch. I should have less heat loss next winter. Thanks again to Derick and his team. This company is a true "find". read more

Derrick is one of a kind. Since the initial phone call, I knew he was someone that I wanted to work with. I went through about 10 other "experts" and none of them were able to pin point the problem and refused to look into it any further. Although what I needed done wasn't really considered siding, Derrick went above and beyond, actually got on the roof and figure out exactly what problem it was. Through out the whole process, he communicated exactly what he was doing, why it needed to be done, and the mechanics behind what was causing the problem. Not to mention, his price was more than reasonable for the level of quality and craftsmanship that comes along with his service. He's officially my go to guy for anything related to my house. If he can't figure it out, he'll do everything he can to get you the answers you need. A+ Business read more

I contacted Derrick at Pulse to fix our copper gutters and help with some exterior carpentry and painting. First, Derrick during the estimate brought his drone to take a look at all the gutters so he could be as accurate as possible with his estimate. I was thankful for this since the other companies that bid on the job didn't and I was worried once they got an actual look the price of the job would sky rocket! His pricing is competitive and I would argue well worth every penny given both him and his painter went above and beyond! The work was phenomenal! I would recommend Pulse for any exterior job that you may have! I will be reaching out to them next spring to do some more work for us if that says anything! read more

After our roof was replaced last fall, we realized that our house required new gutters. In search of a reliable contractor, I contacted several through Yelp and was immediately impressed by Derrick's prompt response. Upon visiting our home, he conducted a thorough evaluation and suggested solutions to address issues we had experienced with our old gutters. In addition, Derrick recommended some cosmetic enhancements that had a significant impact on the overall appearance of our home. The installation crew was highly skilled and completed the job in a timely and efficient manner without any hiccups. I was thoroughly impressed with the overall experience and highly recommend Pulse Exterior. Best of all, the estimate was complimentary! read more

Our addition needed new siding and Pulse Exterior came out to the rescue. The JamesHardie board they installed made a huge difference! Very professional work with great emphasis to every detail. Will definitely use them again for other projects. Big Thanks! P. read more

Called Derrick yesterday morning for the first time, as we had a slight emergency with some flashing in our townhouse. Extremely responsive, came within hours, and gave us a more than reasonable price. I definitely recommend Derrick and Pulse, and will call him for any needs, big or small, we have in the future. Thanks again, Derrick read more

Derrick and his team are excellent at what they do. They did a great job at removing and replacing my gutters (w/ gutter guards). Derrick is very honest and really believes in quality work. He even gave me great tips to give the roofers I hired to replace my shingles prior to the gutter installation, which helped save me money in the end. Would definitely recommend him to friends/family! read more

Pulse was referred to me by a contractor who uses them for projects. They didn't disappoint. Derrick was prompt in replying to my inquiry as well as providing me with a quote and answering my questions. Their pricing was very in line with other contractors I had contacted. I had a fairly simple project of adding gutters and downspouts to my standard Chicago garage. Derrick scheduled me and his team was on-time, completing the job quickly and even clearing away any debris they created. read more

Pulse was wonderful. We had new gutters installed last year--they always leaked and this spring started to overflow. We finally gave up on the old company to fix them. Our neighbor, an architect who manages commercial construction projects, recommended Pulse. Derek came out, explained how our gutters had been hung poorly, which caused the leaking and overflowing. He gave us a reasonable bid. Then, the workers started when Derek told us they would. They worked on the job till they finished it and they cleaned up the debris when they were done. Our gutters now work great! Thanks you, Pulse! read more

100% recommend this company. I haven't had good luck in Chicago with finding reliable people who are honest with me and have good intentions when they get projects done. However, pulse exterior does just that. When you call you don't get passed to some secretary. You get the boss! He came out quickly for an estimate, and THEN AGAIN for another one on a different part of the house before he sent the contract over. Once I signed the contract he started on my house in a week! When him and his guys were completing the house he kept open communication and when problems that you couldn't see up front were found he was fully transparent. He even fixed them to the best of his ability. Gutters are amazing quality! Pulse saved my house and garage from the rain! Will be calling back when I redo the siding! read more

Derrick and Pulse are lifesavers. Part of my gutters fell off my 3-flat and the other half barely hanging off with the winter storms. I needed help quick! Derrick came out on a Friday and I had all new gutters on Monday. Good price and installed by true tradesmen. Thank you Pulse! read more

Water was getting into our basement when it rains. We suspected it was a siding issue so we contacted Pulse Exterior since they've helped us with a different project in the past. Derrick and his crew were able to remove the siding around our basement door and install flashing where rainwater was getting in. He explained the process in detail and provided pictures as he removed the siding. They did a great job overall and we would definitely contact them again for any future repairs we might need. read more

I just got my gutters done today by Derrick and his team. I got my gutters on the house taken down and new gutters with guards put up there. Also, I got gutters and guards put on my garage. His initial quote was very reasonably priced. He was knowledgeable about gutters and answered all of my questions, including the questions I asked after I got the quote. I also felt that he and his partner gave me a thorough assessment. They actually went up there and looked at them. Derrick also came with a little model of what the gutters would like like and gave a quick rundown about what quality gutters look like.Much of what he was saying I have heard before which was comforting. He also gave me additional recommendations which were helpful ie. putting brown gutters on my garage since the trim was brown and changing where some of my downspouts were located to make things flow better. They gave me my quote quickly and shortly after I signed the contract they set up a date. They arrived on time and got right to work. They were friendly as well. They were in and out in about 4 hours and cleaned up their supplies. And it was very easy to send payment too. I am very happy with the work that was done and would highly recommend them. read more

Darek and his team were fantastic to work with. We hired them to fix our downspouts to improve water flow away from our foundaton. From the start, Darek was very communicative and easy to work with.

He respected our home and completed the job in the time he estimated. He even went above and beyond to make sure we were using the best materials and he didn't cut any corners. I would recommend Pulse Exterior to anyone looking for their services. Thanks Darek! read more

Haven't used them for service yet, but they were quick to get an estimate out and very easy to do business with

Derrick and his team were fantastic! I needed gutters on the front of my house and my garage. During the estimate, Derrick gave me several options and explained what needed to be done in detail. He really gave me the information I needed to make a good choice. The day of installation, Derrick and his team had a quick game plan meeting. This may sound small but it was great to see. Everyone talked though what was happening and what to watch out for. When the install started, there were no questions and no one bothering me. The end result was amazing, better than I expected! The cost seemed on par with others but honestly, just call Derrick. The experience was as positive as any home project I have ever had done. You won't be disappointed!! read more

Came out very quickly for a quote. Very responsive and helpful

Derrick and his team were amazing. They arrived on time, were efficient, and did excellent work.

The team got the work done quickly, minimized disruption to neighbors, and left the area clean. I highly recommend Derrick and Pulse Exterior!! read more

I had fascia rotting and buckling, so it was time for a new fascia and good gutters. Derek was responsive to my call, made the appointment easy, in a time when there is a lot of spring work starting.

Derrick was recommended to me by my go-to contractor, Punchlist, because they told me they don't do exterior work when I called them about fixing our garage car door siding/aluminum flashing that had been badly damaged by someone driving their car into the space. Derrick called back very soon after I left a voicemail for him and came out to look at the damage later that afternoon. First of all, he was professional, friendly, and helpful. He told me that this was a pretty straightforward job and he had a minimum service charge, but he offered to include the cost of the material and he ended up fixing two other minor issues on the exterior of the garage and house as well when he came back a few days later. He arrived on a Saturday morning, just when he said he would, and fixed everything just as promised, and he didn't mind taking a little time to explain a couple of things to me so I understood better why (for example) something needed to be nailed down or caulked. He was a pleasure to work with and I'm only sorry that his work is apparently limited to the outside of the house because I would hire him in a minute to do anything inside the house as well. I'd recommend him to anyone who needs exterior work done. read more

Pulse Exterior - Gutter Services Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The back deck on my 2-flat was having a serious issue with water coming down from the roof. In the summer, this wasn't so serious, but in the winter it was turning to huge sheets of ice all down the stairs, which was absolutely treacherous. We couldn't even use the steps because the ice was so bad. It's a flat-roof building, and I could tell the water was coming down from the gutter and downspouts. Enter Derrick and Pulse Exterior! They gave me a free estimate, which seemed quite reasonable, and told me the gutter would be ready from their fabricator in three days. Two days later, I got a text first thing in the morning: The gutter's ready; we're on our way! Next thing I knew, the team was up on the roof, taking down the old gutter (which was RIDICULOUSLY too small for the house, as were the downspouts--hence the overflow!) and putting up bright, shiny, appropriately-sized new gutters and downspouts. As soon as they finished, I could already see water coming out of the new downspout, so clearly the new system is working. There was an issue with the deck sinking on one side, as a result of all that water; Derrick not only told me what the issue was, but also what I could do to fix it. He knows his stuff! The whole team is friendly, polite, efficient, and knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend them for any work like this. read more

Derrick is a very pleasant person who was very reassuring about the work he could provide replacing a corner piece and siding for my garage. He quoted me a flat rate with parts and labor which I agreed to. He was even willing to drive all the way out to Indiana to a distributor that had the hard to obtain part for my garage siding. when he found out that I was able to get the part on my own via an old contractor I had used, he knocked down the flat rate we already agreed to since I was saving him a trip. On the scheduled day for the fix, he contacted me and explained that the below freezing weather may cause cracking to the vinyl siding pieces during the install but he would be very careful and move slowly. Because he set expectations up front before the work, I asked to reschedule to a forecasted "warmer" winter day which he gladly obliged. When he came that following week, he was wearing a mask. The worker he brought didn't wear one but we were outside and he kept a good distance away from me so it wasn't a concern. The work was done very well and very fast to replace a damaged corner and a set of siding. Great sense of humor while being professional as he explained what he was doing...they cleaned up the area before they left and I couldn't be happier. Thank you Derrick and Lukas for the quick and quality work....with a 5 year warranty no less!! read more
