About us

Chris Swisher went to work for Herzing Roofing in May of 1985 after a couple of years of friendship and multiple job offers by Horst Herzing to come work for him as a salesman. After only six months Horst decided he wanted to retire. So Chris, along with another salesman became partners and bought the company. After eight years, Chris’ desire for superior customer service and quality led him to begin his own company that reflected his core values. On June 1st 1993 Chris started Swisher Exteriors. The company is now celebrating its 17th anniversary and still going strong, with a focus on providing the best quality workmanship, materials and service to its customers. All of the estimating and scheduling is still done by Chris. Due to his dedication to quality, Swisher Exteriors has never taken a deposit in 17 years. All work is billed upon completion. Some people in the business think that’s crazy, but Chris is extremely confident in the workmanship of his crews that he knows the customer will be satisfied with the work.

I was very happy with the roof that they put on. I was very happy with the workers too. They came when they said they would come. They cleaned up really well after themselves. The workers worked very hard and they did a good job. It was a positive experience there. I think their price was reasonable. I will use their services again in the future.
Description of Work: I used Swisher Exteriors Inc for my roofing. They finished with the work in the beginning of June. They put on a new roof for me as well as gutters.

Swisher was a second tier sub to a roofer I contracted with to replace the roof, gutters and siding. Swisher showed up for one day which was just long enough to remove all existing siding, they did not return for almost two weeks and left a pile of garbage (with nails) in the driveway and backyard. After complaining, the owner Chris showed up and removed the garbage while stating they usually do not leave a job before it's complete but they had to in this case. I did not appreciate my house looking the way it did knowing it was only a two to three day job. Why not just finish the next day? Also, his field foreman took $250 cash to install a plywood backer which he said was the correct way to do the job even though the owner said it was not, it's a long story but the whole experience was shaddy and frustrating. If it was not for the roofing company my experience with Swisher would have been even worse. I highly recommend to NOT use Swisher for anything. They are dishonest and you have to argue and fight to get a finished product that you are just somewhat satisfied with. In the end, Chris deducted the $250 from the final bill and the roofer finished what Swisher would not.
Description of Work: Removed existing siding and replaced with James Hardi Product.

Response from Swisher Exteriors Inc
We did not have a contract with this person. We where hired by the general contractor and he was well aware of the delays that would be involved. the homeowner bribed the installer to do something that was not contracted to be done.

We used Swisher Exteriors in the past to replace of all of our windows. The window replacement went very well and the work was excellent. We did receive a few quotes for the patio doors. Swisher's was the best quote received. Not only was the quote good, Chris Swisher went the extra mile to find aluminum siding to match what we had. Since we decided to put in two windows where the patio door had been we needed siding to close up the wall. The only problem I had was the new patio door was very hard to open. It was a Marvin door and a Marvin rep came out and removed gunk from the tracks. It had nothing to do with the installation of the door.
Description of Work: Two patio doors needed replacing. We decided to replace one of the doors with two windows and close up part of the wall.

Price was a bit higher than company we hired. But the main reason we hired the other company is because the reference work we viewed seemed a little less precise, especially at seams and corners... not sure how long ago work had been performed.
Description of Work: Estimate was for aluminum soffits, fascia, frieze over existing cedar, and capping garage door frames ($6200).

THANK YOU FOR THE FEED BACK. THE .024 TRIM COIL WE USE FOR THE FASCIA IS 25% THICKER THAN WHAT MOST CONTRACTORS USE. IT ALSO COSTS ABOUT 35% MORE, BUT YOU DON'T WIND UP WITH FASCIA RIPPLING IN THE SUN LIKE YOU HAVE NOW ON YOUR DORMERS. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE YOU WITH A BID. CHRIS SWISHER, SWISHER EXTERIORS

Very friendly and informative. Excellent customer service. Chris Swisher came to look at our house for an estimate. He was very helpful in offering prices for other possibilities, as we were also considering sliding doors. Instead of having him do all of the door measurements and bring in samples, he was able to give us a vague cost estimate that let us know we would have to wait until next year to do that project, We appreciated that. We then received a complete written estimate for the soffit system. When the work was done, the workers were very nice. They cleaned up everything outside of the house and finished the work within two days. The house looks great.
Description of Work: Swisher installed all new aluminum soffit and window and door trim.
