    Front storm and entry doors
    Fredrick B.

    I had a difficult though not unique round top storm and front entry door to replace and was stunned at the difficulty I was having getting the work done. The guy who came out from Lowe's to measure basically wormed me not to purchase the door from them. Evergreen Windows & Doors wanted close to $3,500.00 for a storm door, and over $9,000.00 with hardware for the entry door, insisting that my internal framing had to be replaced. I remembered that several years earlier I got a card and catalog from an installer--Bob Wadkins--from The Door Store (Doorstore). I called. Bob came out. There were no high pressure sales techniques! We discussed what I wanted. He measured and a few weeks later a flawless installation. This was not inexpensive--$2,900.00 for the round top storm door and $3,550.00 for the round top entry door, but it was less than their competitors wanted for just the front door. By the way, the exact same door manufacturer- Home Guard. I was so thoroughly satisfied that I replaced the back entry and storm door immediately after the front installation. The multiple high security locks that were included in this installation work well. The people at The Door Store are courteous, knowledgeable, professionals, that were an absolute pleasure to work with. I unequivocally highly recommend The Door Store. You get what you pay for! PS. When the owner came to inspect the project he noticed the round top door window was off center. He had HGI remake the door and reinstalled it at no cost to me. That's the service one deserves when they pay for high quality products and services. Thank you Bob, Doug & Tom!

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.

We learned that the old windows were not even windows by today's standards, they were just huge panes of glass that gave no insulation. He measured the windows so quickly (like 2 minutes) that I wondered if the windows world 3 actually fit (they did!). The price was extremely reasonable; we had intended to get three estimates but my mom and I both lined Kris so much we decided to go with him right away. I chose a day for installation when Kris was going to be out of town on vacation so he let me decide if we wait to wait until he got back or if we wanted him to send his right hand man Daniel. We went with Daniel who showed up right on time on a cold morning. I thought removing the old badly cracked panes of glass would be very difficult. I was right but they got the old ones out quickly and the new ones in so fast and they finished about 30 minutes before their estimate. They only removed one window at a time and our house never got cold on a 33 degree day This was one of the best customer experiences for a project I have ever had. I chose EV Windows after asking CharGBT to find me a great window company with very good reviews and I'm so glad I did. I do not have one negative thing to say. I most strongly recommend Kris and his team.

    After getting quotes from three different window companies, I decided to go with Evergreen, and I'm…read morevery glad I did. 1. The Consultation: Alvano, the consultant, really stood out. He actually sat down with me, took out brochures from multiple window manufacturers, and walked me through the options. He explained the pros and cons and made sure I was making a choice that fit my home and budget. The other two companies I met with didn't do that--one (a well-known company from Orland Park) just took quick measurements and gave me a verbal quote for one brand, and the other simply emailed me a price afterward. Alvano even brought a small demo window to show how everything works. That level of effort and attention made a big difference. 2. The Results: I wanted to wait until I'd gone through both summer and winter before posting this review. I can honestly say the windows have performed great--much better than what I had before. My utility bills have gone down, and I'm really satisfied with the quality and comfort they provide. 3. The Price: Evergreen wasn't the cheapest or the most expensive--right in the middle. But I wasn't chasing the lowest bid; I wanted solid windows at a fair price, and that's exactly what I got. Final Thoughts: Big shout-out to Alvano. He's a straight shooter--honest, knowledgeable, and friendly. He pointed out details the other guys completely missed, and he was genuinely respectful toward me and my family. Meanwhile, the other two sales reps seemed like they were racing each other to finish the appointment. If you want someone who takes the time to do it right, ask for Alvano at Evergreen Door & Window.

I was really mad about the vinyl windows because the former owner had installed them pretty new, but they literally were about to fall out of the wall. We had to lock them to keep them in place. The previous owner had the original windows replaced, but the installer of the vinyl windows did not insulate around the frame and cold air kept leaking in. The wood windows would rattle on a windy day. I found out about Chicago Window & Door Solutions through a recommendation from another contractor who was repairing my original wood windows - he said he wouldn't work with anyone else - so that tells you something! Sue & Greg came out to meet with us, took measurements and talked about our options. They install Marvin windows. Know that they aren't the cheapest option. For that you can go anywhere, but know in about 8 years, you're going to be replacing them. But I found that they listened to what we were looking for - which for me was energy efficiency as a top priority. I liked that there was the chance to get a wooden interior on the windows. It allowed us to match the stain on sill and border opening - so now these windows look like they belong and do not look like replacements. We opted to stain the windows ourselves and they gave suggestions of how to do it. More importantly, they came out twice (next day!) when we had questions/concerns. Justin came to do the install and he removed and installed six windows and fixed a sill in a day and a half - plus he cleaned up after himself! If you've ever had workmen come into your house, you know what a mess they can leave. I am really happy with the new windows. They are beautiful, they are much more energy efficient than what I had and really block out the noise. I live on a two-way street in Chicago & they have made the house much quieter than the windows I had before.

They came out to measure everything we needed, quoted us on what we wanted and a few other optional windows as well since we were debating on doing everything at once. After selecting the quote for the windows we wanted to get done, a down payment was made and the windows were ordered. They came in a few weeks later and two of their team members came out to install them in the morning. Everything was done quickly and professionally with care. After the install, I had a question about one of the windows since it looked like there was a small crack at the top corner and they sent someone out to look at it right away. It turned out it was just some glue residue that was attached on the inside of the window that made it look like a crack and was easly scraped off with a razor blade. I definitley recommend using Semko as they provided a very reliable service and also beat out many other window companies with their competitive pricing.

    If you're considering Semko for windows, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. My experience has…read morebeen frustrating and costly. Here's why: Warranty Issues: Semko does not handle their own warranty work. Instead, they pass you off to a third-party, which adds complexity and delays. Poor Installation Quality: When I recently had siding installed, the contractor was shocked at the poor quality of Semko's original window installation--missing foam around windows and minimal caulking. Product Problems: I've had two leaking picture windows. Defects happen, and I understand that. A reputable company would acknowledge this and honor their "lifetime" warranty. Semko did not. They denied any responsibility and insisted the problem couldn't be their product. Customer Support: Rather than standing behind their product, Semko leaves you chasing other potential issues, only to discover the real problem is their windows and installation. Yes, Semko may save you a few dollars upfront, but peace of mind matters. I wish I had spent more with a company that truly stands behind its products and reimburses for damages caused by their failures.
