Terrible. We wouldn't even the salesman back on our property after we complained the first. We called and left messages and my husband emailed them. They would not call us back and fix the problem. We were overcharged for a terrible home improvement.
Description of Work: Worse home improvement experience I have ever had. Salesman was so dumb, I looked at my husband and whispered, does he know what he's doing? The job is so bad and they wouldn't correct it, they stopped sending a bill for the remainder of the balance. Some of the gutter pieces fell out, mismatch seams and caulking looks like a kid did it. I'm going to have to pay someone else come out and redo it. Stay away from this company. I can't stress enough how bad my house looks.

Signed the work order in September. The cover wasn't ready until early December. The entire job only took four days to complete. The cover had leaked during the first rain. They came out the next day and repaired all leaks. Very satisfied.

The doors and the shutters are mismatched in color. Yes, I chose the color from "chips". Could not the salesperson tell me that they would clash and I was making a wrong choice? I have since hired another contractor to paint shutters color of doors so everything will match. To say I am perturbed is an understatement. The sales person of Trim a seal got his sale, even though it was mismatched shutters and doors, but the customer (me) did not get what I wanted. I have to undo what I just bought and pay out another $10000 to have my shutters and doors match. Something is not right with this picture.

The people at Trim A Seal are great !!! Their product is superior and the service is too ! From Ryan the sales person to Deb the go-to woman to Rodney the installer, all of the people at Trim A Seal are a great group who are easy to work with. Even when the manufacturer misrepresented the color on the security door, the owner, Howard, drove four hours to the manufacturer to insure the error was not made again and took care of the problem in a highly professional manner. I can't say how pleased I am with their service and subsequent follow ups to be sure I am happy. The doors are secure and beautiful and the gutters they sold me are the best ! No more cold breezes in my entryways nor icicles of death hanging over my door for years and years to come !

Had Gutter Helmet installed on our home a couple years ago, havent had to think about my gutters since. Get a lot of compliments on the way it looks and functions just as described. Had some windows replaced this spring, very happy. Again, sales rep and staff were friendly and HONEST. Refreshing to see. Will be using them again in the future.

After my initial unfavorable review, I was contacted by a company representative that was nothing but apologetic and genuinely interested in making the problems I identified right. As a result, all problems with the initial install have been corrected. I am very pleased with the finished product. Although regrettable that the initial problems occurred, the end result to me is a company that genuinely cares about the service they deliver. I would definitely recommend Trim-A-Seal to anyone.

Salesman gave us discounted price on door, and sale price on other work we want them to do in near future. We had workman here installing door, and he spent entire time working with maybe a 5 minute break. He arrived on time, was polite, a good worker, and did an excellent job on our door. Where we once had air leaking around the door, it is now solid and much safer than original door. We highly recommend this company!

I called him about the quote and he explained it was only for a portion of the building. I thought the pricing was pretty high for that portion only. I thought the quote was poorly written up.They quoted $2600 for the entire building. I have known these guys for years. I had no problem scheduling the quote.

Called and made an appointment with this company for some new windows. Set up an appointment and the salesman was on time and very nice. He helped us figure out what kind of windows we wanted because they did carry a bunch of makes. Anyway they were a little high price wise but we decided to use them because they had great reviews on here and they seemed like a good company. Low and behold 6 weeks later we got our windows installed and love them. They are great, look amazing, and are energy efficient. Will def. use again for other projects we need done. I also felt that unlike a few other contractors we had out I felt like they didn't try to sell us on THEIR product. They straight asked us what we wanted and were looking for and helped us narrow down window manufacturers based on what we were looking for. So very satisfied and my wife loves the new look of the house too.
Description of Work: Installed new windows in our home. 11 windows all together.

After receiving a below average review from me on a gutter job that they were unable to complete, the owner was bending over backwards to try to make me a satisfied customer. We no longer needed our gutters serviced by them so we decided on some trim work which they discounted heavily. The gentleman they sent out to do this other job did fabulous work. Very meticulous. He was a couple of hours late (and didn't call) and we ended up leaving before he finished but they let us pay for it later. I am extremely pleased with this job. Thanks Angie!

Response from Trim-A-Seal Of Indiana Inc
Member, We are sorry that you were not happy with our estimate. Thank you for your feedback, as we are always trying to revise our price models in order to create a strong balance between that and the quality of our products, service, and workmanship. That being said, we do believe the higher price is due to a difference in the work you were quoted by us, and the work you received from others. In addition to the custom impression siding and new gutters, our papers show an estimate was given for a complete aluminum soffit & fascia system, aluminum wrap on the chimney, re-flashing of the home, a full aluminum porch-ceiling system, aluminum post beam wrap, and weather stripping with wrap on an overhead door. To be fair, while we continue to revise our price models to meet a competitive market, we do generally come in slightly higher than independent contractors who work with a single truck or crew. This may have contributed as well. We hope to remedy this extra cost by providing comfort to our customers through licensed and warrantied workmanship and products, as well as service from a reputable company that has been in the business for 60 years. In this respect, we also strive to provide exceptional service during and after our installation, in the near and far future. We are sorry to have not gotten to work with you, and we will take this review into account when updating our price models for 2015. Again, we are happy to offer you a Trim-A-Seal gift card to make-up for your wasted time, and to help offset the cost in the future should you choose to give us another shot :) Thank you again for your feedback.

Set up an appointment with the secretary sandy who was very nice and tentative to my needs. Had the salesman come out Drew who was great very thorough and his years in the business really helped up make out decision. They not only had sunsetters but also had aluminum awnings and patio covers so we had lots of options to choose from. Took a little bit longer than we would have liked for install but the awnings are custom. Installer that came out was holland who was a great very clean guy showed us who to use everything step by step and cleaned up his mess before he left. We love our awning looks great and overall the company was great and is family owned.

The contract stated the work would be completed between JUNE 12 and JUNE 26. When we hadn't heard from them by approximately June 23, we called and they set up installation for June 30, in the afternoon. They called at 1:15 that afternoon to tell us 1) that they wouldn't be able to make it because someone called off and 2)THAT THE GUTTERS THAT WE ORDERED AND GAVE THEM $500 FOR A MONTH AND A HALF AGO ARE NOT EVEN AVAILABLE!!!! ORDER CANCELLED! We're back to where we were mid-May and every time it rains, our front walk which we had repaired in June in anticipation of the new gutters, is sinking just a little bit more...

I would recommend him highly. He was the best bidder, best price. The work he did was excellent exceedingly. He also exceeded our expectations. The clean-up afterwards, you would have never known that they did anything. We were very pleased. I would give them the highest rating and would use them again in a heartbeat. They also showed up on time and that is what I am looking for with contractors. If they say they are going to be there at 8am, be there at 8am. Don't show up at one o'clock and don't call me, don't let me know. For these things, I take days off from work. I burn vacation days or sick days and that really irritates me because I am using up my precious time and the least that you can do is to call me and let me know if you had a delay. Just do what you say and these guys got here when they said they are going to be here. They also came within their quote.

The installers were very polite and professional. They explained everything that they were going to do before they did it. They walked the perimeter of the house to make sure no other areas of the house needed their attention before leaving. The product looks wonderful and the installation looks wonderful as well.
