Exterior Improvements was great to work with. I had seen their signs throughout our town and when they knocked on my door I knew they were not a scam. The examined my roof and immediately noticed hail damage. They worked directly with my insurance company to get my new roof covered under insurance and did an excellent job. The team worked through 95+ degree heat in the middle of the summer to get the work done and was extremely respectful while onsite, leaving my property spotless when done. I have no reservations about recommending them to anyone who needs a new roof.

I had a fantastic experience with my roofer! From start to finish, he was professional, reliable, and incredibly skilled. The quality of his work was top-notch—everything was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. He showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the project, and made sure the job site was clean when the work was done. If you need roofing done right the first time, I highly recommend giving Ken a call. Great job, and thank you again!

I couldn’t be happier with the work from Exterior Improvements! From our first conversation, Joe and his team were professional, friendly, and clearly experts in their field. They walked me through every step of the process, offered great suggestions, and made sure I felt confident about the plan before getting started. Joe’s craftsmanship is second to none — every detail was completed with precision and care, and the finished result has completely transformed the look of my home. He kept the work area tidy and respected my property throughout the entire project. What impressed me most was his reliability: they showed up exactly when they said they would, stayed on schedule, and delivered everything within budget. It’s rare to find a contractor who combines skill, communication, and customer service at such a high level. I highly recommend Exterior Improvements to anyone looking to enhance their home’s curb appeal. I’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects!

Redid my siding and had windows replaced and could not speak any higher of the company. Was recommended by a friend and contacted the owner, Ken, who was fantastic. He made the entire experience easy from start to finish and will be using them again for any future home needs.

Exterior Improvements recently replaced our roof, skylights, gutters (also added guards), and damaged siding, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the team was punctual, honest, and incredibly friendly. They truly transformed our house. Ken was great to work with — clear communication, fair, and very professional. The crew cleaned up thoroughly each day; there wasn’t a single piece of debris or stray nail left behind. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of roofing or exterior work.

"I thought they were very complete. They answered all of my questions and did what they said they would do. They did everything right. I was very critical and wouldn't let them come until I saw them doing other jobs. They met my standards. That's pretty good."

"I had a very special situation and they worked with me in every possible way. They did everything they could to accommodate me. They accommodated me like I was family. They did a lot of work for me and took all of the garbage away. The items that were on the roof were cleaned off as well."

"Great company, I would highly recommend."

"First I want to say that I did A TON of research before I decided on the right company to do the job of completely replacing my roof. I learn tons of stuff about roofs in my research, and in talking to many roofers. I chose Exterior Improvements because I learned of the high quality materials that they would be using (Owens Corning Duration) for my roof. Not only the shingles but the synthetic underlayment and all the high quality Owens Corning stuff that comes in the package that they put UNDER the shingles, like Ice and Water Shield, Flashing around my chimney and Drip Edges. They used everything that every roofer I talked to said was "state of the art" for roofs these days. The thing is that they did all that at a very reasonable price! The day they came they were on time, very accommodating and professional and did a high quality job. Since I heard how important the number of nails in each shingle was, I watched them all day and counted the nails, and they did not cut corners! In addition, they did the job so fast, they finished it in one day and they cleaned up everything at the end so nicely that my property looked neater and cleaner after they left then before they came! I love the look of the the high quality Owens Corning Duration shingles( I chose the beautiful Teak Color) however they also use the high quality Timberline, I just personally do not care for the look of the Timberline shingles. Exterior Improvements also did my gutters a bigger size than I had had before and they were done perfectly and look beautiful. Ken, the owner, seems to focus on high quality for his business at an affordable price. As you can imagine, I am super happy with their work and obviously HIGHLY RECOMMEND Exterior Improvements!"

"Exterior Improvements is one of the most professional operations I have seen to date. They are affordable, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. They made repairs and improvements that others missed or were too lazy to take on. They’re an A+ in my book. For quality workmanship and quality experience I would recommend Exterior Improvements."
