Business owner Mary Lou Martino is wonderful to work with from initial project planning through completion of all final details. She is professional and extremely responsive. The Better Homes Siding & Improvements crew installed new vinyl siding, windows and doors transforming my home from old and dated to a neighborhood showcase. They also converted an unused back porch into a lovely sunroom. Thank you for a great job!

We would highly recommend Better Home Siding. We had all the siding, trim and shutters replaced on our home. The end result was absolutely beautiful. The attention to detail was exceptional. Andre and the crew went over and above with their professionalism and their desire to provide a quality end result to our project. The owner, Mary Lou, was on site several times a week to ensure that every aspect of our project was up to our expectations and performed at the highest level.

I retained Mary Lou (& her company Better Homes) just over 10 years ago to replace my roof, my gutters, and almost all of the windows in my house. I had been having a lot of problems with leaks in the roof and drafts from the windows. Her company came in, was extremely professional and neat, and did a great job all around. Mine was the third house in our family that she had done major work for, and we have all been extremely satisfied. This past April my bay window must have broken a seal and became foggy. I called Mary Lou, who got back to me right away and even though it took six months for the window to be replaced, the delays were mainly related to what we have been hearing all around with covid related construction issues regarding materials, transportation, etc. She kept on it and communicated regularly as to what was going on. My window was replaced right before Thanksgiving in time for the holiday and winter and looks phenomenal. I would hire them again (although knock on wood hopefully I wont have to!)

Kenny and Connell were great -- very personable and the work was excellent. They replaced all the windows and shutters on my 200 year old house, They also replaced the front storm/screen door and even put up two more pairs of shutters where they had never been before. They also replaced all the windows in my detached garage. They went above and beyond, helping out with other small tasks which needed to be done. I really enjoyed having them work on my house and they did a super job.

Better Home Siding was wonderful. Their price was reasonable but more that the work and the customer service were fantastic. Mary Lou is the owner and always checked in by calling or coming to the job several times a week. Andre was meticulous in his work and always pleasant and on time. He even fixed one of our windows. I canâ t say enough good things about a company who takes such pride in their work.

We hired Better Homes and Siding to install new windows and vinyl siding. We are very pleased with the materials they used and the quality of the craftsmanship of the contractors who did the install. Every person from the company that weâ ve been in contact with, from the owner Mary Lou to the installer Kenny has been completely professional. We will be using them again and would highly recommend.

Our project involved roofing, siding, gutters and trim. Due to unforseen circumstances the project took longer than anticipated but the end product was well worth it. Mary Lou took our "vision" and the workers delivered . Andre deserves an award for his thoughtful and meticulous work. A mix of lap and shake siding adds a bit of character to our typical 1970's colonial. If you want a job professionally done, this is your company.

Mary Lou, the owner was kind, very experienced Mary Lou kept us abreast for the time of delivery of products and dumpster. She checked in often on how the work was going. She works very hard. Our installers were very patient and didn't mind us watching. Not for concern of workmanship, we were just amazed how they did their work with such ease and suburb workmanship. They were prompt. They were funny and very down to earth. We enjoyed their company. We also had our gutters done. That installer was also very kind and an expert. Thank you for all of your hard work. We love our "new" house.
