Description of Work: HX installed 10 New Marvin windows in my townhouse, on 3 different levels, some singles and some 3-window banks. They did great work, were very punctual and knowledgeable about what would be best for my situation and their install was very high quality. A couple months later I’m still getting compliments from neighbors about my new windows.

It didn't go.
Description of Work: I invited them to come out and do a bid from my house which was clear and precise and laid out very professionally. He did an excellent job going over everything, the problem I had was on his follow-through. we never got past the bid process because he failed to return several calls. When I finally got a hold of him and asked him to take another look he failed to call back to set up an appointment and I never heard from them again.

Description of Work: Replacement windows by Marvin, including 3 bays. Finish coat paint on interior. Also, rebuild roof over one bay. They had to deal with a lot of wood rot inside one wall, and did a great job dealing with the "surprise" and redoing the exterior wall. We are extremely pleased and would highly recommend them.

Description of Work: Hacker's Exteriors did an excellent job of residing our two-story house as well as replacing some exterior windows. They recommended some stylish but inexpensive changes to our siding choices. The prices were reasonable for quality siding, but the main reason we chose them was their professional organization and recommendations by previous customers (references were provided). I was concerned about the weather when the job was started in November, but the workmen performed quickly and professionally in the cold temperatures. Now that the long winter has passed, I am able to appreciate the attractive improvement to our house exterior.

It went as expected.
Description of Work: Hired to help with water damaged Hardy siding. Had to fix a job done by Herion Roofers - who did not want to help in fixing the installation. Hackers had the expertise and experience with Hardy planks to come out and fix the job. They were prompt, did what they promised and cleaned up. Job was done in a timely manner. Wish I had used them in the first place. Herion may be ok at roofing, but they are terrible at anything else, and should not even think about offering other services. I will review them later.

They did an excellent job on the roofing. It went very well and we were very pleased. They did the job in eight hours just as they said. They did everything that they said they were going to do. They came in at 7 in the morning. They cleaned up after themselves and they did the job very professionally. We would use them to replace our windows and siding in the next two years. They were recommended to me by my son who had his roof and gutters replaced by them. He was very pleased with them. They were very helpful and gave suggestions. They were here when they said they were going to be. I would certainly recommend them very highly.
Description of Work: Hacker’s Exteriors just finished replacing my roof on Tuesday. They removed the old shingles and replaced it with new. They hauled away the existing roofing material. They installed ice and water shield to the bottom three feet edge of the roof. They installed aluminum roof vents and new lead vent pipes. They also installed a roof fan with thermostat control. They removed metal chimney housing and installed galvanized heating vent stack.

We felt that he was extremely professional and was presenting very high quality products and high quality work. We got several estimates for the work we wanted performed and essentially we made our decision based on prices. We felt that we didn't want the extensive work that they were going to do. There were no concerns about quality or professionalism or anything we just decided to go with some other companies. If there was a factor, price would be it. They were a little higher than the other companies.

The installation of the windows occurred without any problems. The installation crew, Mark and John, were kind, courteous, and professional. They worked the schedule originally promised. They announced their arrival each morning and informed me when they wrapped up work for the day. A couple of days, they needed to work around thundershowers. They worked until the last minute and then made up time after the storm passed. They took extreme care when working inside the house. The job included the installation of new window sills and aprons. They moved any furniture required to access the window and then moved it back when completed. They vacuumed any area where they worked and it looked clean when finished.
Description of Work: Replaced all windows in the house, first floor, second floor and basement.

I was concerned that the installation crew might cut corners because the windows were installed on the coldest days of this winter. My concerns were unfounded. The crew was very professional and did excellent work despite the weather. My new windows are beautiful. This is the second time I have used Hacker Exteriors. My neighbors have also been very pleased with their work. I would recommend them to anyone looking for good value and excellent service.
Description of Work: Hacker Exteriors replaced seven windows in my home with high-efficiency, vinyl, double-hung windows.

So far, everything has been positive. The price of the bid, length of time they have been in business, the referrals, and the type of work I have seem them do stands out.
Description of Work: They haven't done the work yet, they have done the estimate. They will be doing siding and gutter work for me.

This company responded promptly and flexibly to our request for an estimate. They were willing to deal with me individually, rather than insisting that "the man must be present". The work was done professionally, quickly and cleanly. The owner stopped by to check the work after the job was completed, and had the crew come back to make meticulous corrections. The cost was a bit higher than our other estimates, but having the job done RIGHT was well worth the added expense. We look forward to working with Hacker on a siding job in the future.
Description of Work: Replacement of all of our windows (6) including interior and exterior trim. Replacement of all gutters and downspouts. Vinyl sheathing of all soffits, with replacement of some wood.

I did not even have a chance for an estimate, as the woman who answers their phone was incredibly rude. We needed our fascia and soffit covered in siding, and when I explained this, the woman said, "Well, that's a small job". "We're booked through October." But she still called me back the next week to make an appointment for an estimate. When she called back, the time did not work for me. Referring to Dave Hacker, she said, "I'd have to ask him, and he's on the phone." She said she'd call back and never did. I would never use a company that makes it so difficult to speak with someone knowledgeable and friendly. I have already seen three other siding companies who dealt with me in a professional and helpful manner. I can not speak for Hacker's work, but they never gave me that opportunity.
Description of Work: All exposed wood on our house needed covering with siding.

They are exceedingly reliable. They are also incredibly nice to work with and very professional. My house looks wonderful! All their work came out beautifully. They did a great job of matching the siding and the roofing. They added nice architectural detailing to add interest. They also removed wood that he thought would cause problems in the future. Two of the architectural details and a storm door were done at no charge. Also the window they ordered for me came in wrong. It was actually a better model and they did not charge me for the upgrade. They stuck with the proposal from the beginning. It was a very special experience. You don't often get to say that about people who work for you. They go above and beyond.
Description of Work: They did siding, put on new gutters and downspouts, replaced doors and a window, and did tyvek insulation. They also subbed out the roofing to a company they work with frequently.
