Minnesota Exteriors Inc

Brian Johnson was our sales contact. He was very knowledgeable and always on time. All the installers were on time and very polite and cleaned up after each job. MEI did a great job in matching the color to the color of the existing siding.

I went with another company that could do insulation work in addition to the siding. Salesperson was very helpful and courteous with all my questions. Bid was very competitive on the siding and product was good quality. I would have been very comfortable using them.

THE WORK TEAM HAD GOOD CRAFTSMEN. THEY DID A GOOD JOB. THEY WERE FRIENDLY AND LISTENED TO MY SUGGESTIONS. THE OFFICE WAS MORE OR LESS RESPONSIVE. WE WERE ASSIGNED A PROJECT MANAGER, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS GOOD. WHEN WE HAD QUESTIONS, THEY WERE RESPONSIVE AND SENT SOMEONE OUT TO TAKE A LOOK AT OUR CONCERNS. THERE WERE TWO THINGS THAT WERE CONCERNING. YOU DON'T WORK WITH THE SAME PERSON THROUGHOUT (SALE TO INVOICE). THEY MISSED THE DEPOSIT AND BILLED US FOR MONEY ALREADY PAID AND WE ATTRIBUTE THIS TO MISCOMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT CONTACTS (SALES, PROJECT MANAGER, AND THE ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT). THEY WERE VERY RESPONSIVE ABOUT FIXING THE PROBLEM ONCE IT CAME UP. THE OTHER THING WAS THE CLEANUP. THE SALESMAN TOLD US THEY WOULD SEND A CLEAN UP CREW. AFTER WORK WAS DONE (THEY FINISHED LATE AT NIGHT), THE CREW WAS TO CLEAN UP (IN OUR CASE), BUT DID NOT. THEY CAME BACK A FEW DAYS LATER TO CLEAN UP, BUT DIDN'T CLEAN EVERYTHING UP(WE HAVE KIDS AND PETS), SO WE'LL HAVE TO DO THAT OURSELVES.

EXCELLENT WORK! EXCELLENT PRICE ! NICE SALESMAN AND INSTALLERS. NO COMPLAINTS AT ALL.

AVERAGE WORK. HAVE HAD ISSUES IN THE PAST. NOT SURE WHY I KEEP USING THEM, NEXT TIME I PLAN TO USE A DIFFERENT COMPANY. THEY ACT LIKE THEY COULD CARE LESS IF YOU USED THEM OR NOT. LIKE THEY HAVE ENOUGH WORK AND DON'T WANT MORE. HAVE HAD TO MAKE REPAIRS MYSELF SINCE DUE TO WHAT I CONSIDER POOR WORKMANSHIP.

I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE MEN THAT DID THE TEAROFF OF THE OLD SIDING, THEY SHOWED UP EARLY IN THE MORNING AND THEY WERE ALL DONE BY LATE AFTERNOON. ALL OF THE OLD SIDING WAS RAKED UP AND HAULED AWAY. THE MEN THAT PUT UP THE NEW SIDING SEEMED TO KNOW WHAT THEY WERE DOING ESPECIALLY THE PERSON DOING THE BENDING OF THE ALUMINUM AND CUTTING THE VINYL SIDING. YOU COULD CERTAINLY TELL THAT HE HAS DONE THIS TYPE OF WORK BEFORE. ALL OF THE WORKERS WERE FRIENDLY AND EASY TO TALK TO AND THEY WOULD GO OUT OF THEIR WAY TO EXPLAIN AND ANSWER QUESTIONS. THEY EVEN MADE A FEW CHANGES THAT WE WANTED MADE.

WE ASKED FOR BIDS FROM SEVERAL WINDOW COMPANIES BEFORE FINALLY DECIDING ON MINNESOTA EXTERIORS. THEY WERE VERY FRIENDLY AND FELL RIGHT IN LINE WITH PRICING WITH EVERYONE ELSE. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT WITHIN A WEEK, ONE OF OUR FRONT WINDOWS DEVELOPED A STRESS CRACK IN IT. WE CALLED THE COMPANY TO REPLACE IT AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT NO PROBLEM. THIS WAS NICE. THE PROBLEM WAS THOUGH THAT SO FAR THEY HAVE ORDERED 2 REPLACEMENTS AND BOTH HAVE COME IN BROKEN. THE 3RD IS IN NOW AND WE ARE SCHEDULED FOR THE REPLACEMENT HERE NEXT WEEK. HOPEFULLY IT WILL NOT BE BROKEN. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW WE CAN GET AN ENTIRE HOUSE OF WINDOWS BUT WHEN WE NEED JUST ONE IT TAKES MONTHS? OVERALL, I AM STILL HAPPY WITH THEM AS THEY ARE ALWAYS POLITE TO DEAL WITH AND THE QUALITY OF THE JOB IS TOP NOTCH. I JUST CHALK UP THE BROKEN WINDOW AS A FLUKE THING. I STILL DON'T LIKE LOOKING AT THE CRACKED WINDOW BUT IT WILL EVENTUALLY GET REPLACED.

I WAS EXCEEDINGLY HAPPY WITH EVERY ASPECT OF A THIS PROJECT. WAYNE DREW UP THE PROPOSAL, AND GAVE ME ALL THE INFORMATION I ASKED FOR AND WAS FLEXIBLE IN DISCUSSING DIFFERENT OPTIONS. HE NEGOTIATED A VERY FAIR PRICE, AND EVERYTHING I REQUESTED WAS DONE IN A PROFESSIONAL, TIMELY MANNER. EVERY CREW (WINDOWS - SIDING TEARDOWN AND CONSTRUCTION- GUTTERS - CLEANUP - INSPECTION) WAS FRIENDLY, PROFESSIONAL, AND HARD WORKING. I HAVE NEVER SEEN PEOPLE WORK SO HARD DURING THE HOTTEST WEATHER IN YEARS (MID-JULY). WHEN I NEEDED CHANGES AND ADDITIONAL WORK, PRICES WERE QUICKLY NEGOTIATED AND THE WORK WAS DONE. ANYTHING THAT NEEDED ADJUSTING OR A FOLLOW-UP CHECK AFTER THE WORK WAS COMPLETED WAS QUICKLY ADDRESSED AND TAKEN CARE OF. I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH POSITIVES ABOUT MINNESOTA EXTERIORS. THEIR PRICES WERE VERY GOOD, AND THEIR WORK ETHIC, PROFESSIONALISM, AND RESPECT FOR CUSTOMERS IS ADMIRABLE. I WOULD CERTAINLY USE THEM AGAIN AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM.

THE ONLY NEGATIVE WAS IT TOOK THREE PHONE CALLS AND AN EMAIL BEFORE MAKING INITIAL CONTACT WITH THE OFFICE PERSONNEL TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE ESTIMATE. EVERYTHING WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL FROM THE POINT OF THE MEETING WITH WAYNE THROUGH THE INSTALLATION. INSTALLERS WERE PROFESSIONAL AND VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE. THE FINISH MOLDING IS TIGHTER THAN THE ORIGINAL WOODWORK!

THEY ALSO PUT IN SOME WINDOWS FOR ME. THEY DID SIDING ON THE FRONT OF MY HOUSE AS WELL. ON THIS PARTICULAR JOB THEY COULDN'T HAVE BEEN BETTER. VERY PROFESSIONAL AND EXCELLENT WORK. THEIR PRICES WERE COMPARATIVE TO EVERY ONE ELSE. IT WAS A GREAT GROUP THAT PUT THE DOOR IN.

THE CREW DROPPED SOME SIDING ONTO OUR AIR CONDITIONING UNIT, BUT MINNESOTA EXTERIORS WAS VERY ON TOP OF THINGS, VERY PLEASANT AND WILLING TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT. TO ME, THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT THE COMPANY THAT THEY ARE WILLING TO FIX PROBLEMS.

MY WIFE AND I WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THE WORK AND THEIR PEOPLE. THEY DID A FINE JOB, IN A TIMELY, PROFESSIONAL MANNER. AND I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS QUITE REASONABLE.

WAYNE WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH - PROVIDED GOOD OPTIONS WITH THE DIFFERENT PRODUCTS FROM VINYL TO ALUMINUM TO STEEL. WE CHOOSE THE STEEL OPTION. BECAUSE WE WERE CONCERNED WITH THE SIZE OF THE PURCHASE WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE LIKED THE COLOR. WE WERE GIVEN A 2' BY 4' SECTION FOR OPTION 1 AND OPTION 2 OF OUR COLORS. THE CRAFTSMANSHIP ON THE INSTALLATION WAS EXCEPTIONAL. WE HAD MANY UNIQUE ANGELS AND THE PRODUCT PROPERLY COVERED ALL OF THE NOOKS AND CRANNIES PROPERLY. THE CREW PUT THE OLD HOUSE SIDING INTO A WAGON THAT KEPT THE CLUTTER AWAY FROM THE HOUSE AND KEPT THE WORK AREA NEAT. THE HOUSE WAS INSPECTED BY THE TEAM PRIOR TO THE CITY INSPECTING IT TO ENSURE THAT EVERYTHING WAS DONE PROPERLY.

WE WERE VERY HAPPY WITH THE SALES PERSON WHO WALKED US THROUGH THE PROCESS. WE ALSO RECEIVED A QUOTE FROM A VERY SMALL, INDEPENDENT COMPANY, AND THE PRICES WERE VERY COMPARABLE. THE CONSTRUCTION WORKERS WERE ALWAYS PLEASANT, WORKED CONSTANTLY WHILE ON THE JOB, AND CLEANED UP THEIR WORK EACH DAY. A FEW DETAILS WHICH NEEDED CORRECTING AFTER THE JOB WAS FINISHED WERE HANDLED IN A TIMELY MANNER. WE WERE VERY HAPPY WITH THE SERVICE FROM MN EXTERIORS.

VERY FRIENDLY AMBIANCE CREATED BY MINNESOTA EXTERIORS. THEY ASSESSED MY WINDOW PROBLEMS AND CAME THROUGH WITH A COMPLETE SOLUTION IN A SHORT FRAME OF TIME. VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE.

I FEEL THAT AFTER THE WORK IS DONE, THAT THE SOFFET VENTS DON'T DRAW AS WELL AS BEFORE THE WORK WAS DONE. I WENT INTO MY ATTIC & ADDED CHANNELS. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THEY PLUGGED UP WHEN THEY WERE UP THERE. I CAN'T BE 100% SURE, BUT THE PROBLEM OCCURRED DURING THEIR WORK. THEY DENY RESPONSIBILITY AND I'M UNCERTAIN THAT THEY ARE WILLING TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. THEY USE A RIDGE VENT, WHICH SEEMS OK OVERALL, BUT I WAS ABLE TO FIND IMPROVEMENT TO THE PROCESS THAT THEY DIDN'T KNOW OF.

EVERYONE FROM THE PERSON WHO GAVE US THE BID PLUS THE PERSON THAT WAS IN CHARGE OF THE REMODELING TO THE PERSONS THAT DID THE PHYSICAL LABOR WERE ALL FRIENDLY, HELPFUL AND VERY PROFESSIONAL. ALL OUR QUESTIONS WERE ANSWERED IN A TIMELY MANNER AND ANY SUGGESTIONS THEY MADE WERE VERY HELPFUL AND APPRECIATED. THE HOUSE LOOKS GREAT!

ON TIME, EXPLAINED THE PROCESS, DID VERY NICE WORK, CLEANED UP AFTERWARDS, DID A FINAL CHECK WHEN WORK WAS DONE.

THEY ARE A GOOD COMPANY. PRICE INCLUDES TEAR OFF, INSULATION, AND NEW SIDING.

WE HAD A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE WITH MN EXTERIORS. ALL OF OUR PHONE CALLS WERE RETURNED VERY PROMPTLY. EVERYONE SEEMED VERY FRIENDLY AND PROFESSIONAL. THEY COMPLETED THE JOB IN THE TIMEFRAME THEY QUOTED. THEY DID A GREAT CLEAN UP JOB DURING AND AFTER THE PROJECT. THE PRICE WE WERE QUOTED WAS WHAT WE ACTUALLY PAID AND AFTER CHECKING AROUND, WE ARE CONFIDENT WE RECEIVED A GREAT DEAL! WE WOULD DEFINITELY HIRE THIS COMPANY AGAIN!

EVERYONE AT MINNESOTA EXTERIORS, WAS WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH. THE WORK WAS DONE IN A VERY TIMELY MANNER. ANY TIME I HAD A QUESTION SOMEONE WAS ABLE TO ANSWER IT ALMOST IMMEDIATELY. THE PEOPLE THERE ARE SO NICE TO DEAL WITH AND THE INSTALLERS DID A MAGNIFICENT JOB, EVERYTHING LOOKS JUST BEAUTIFUL. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND WORKING WITH THEM ON ANY OF YOUR PROJECTS.

WE ARE JUST THRILLED WITH THE LOOK OF OUR NEW HOME! THE SIDING IS BEAUTIFUL AND WE CAN NOT BELIEVE HOW NICE THE WINDOWS LOOK. MINNESOTA EXTERIORS (AND DAN BENNIS IN PARTICULAR) WERE WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH. THEY CALLED WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD, SHOWED UP WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD AND JUST DID A GREAT JOB ON OUR NEW HOME. WE WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE.

WE CHECKED PRICING WITH 4 COMPANIES AND DECIDED TO GO WITH MINNESOTA EXTERIORS BECAUSE OF THE BID AND A RECOMMENDATION FROM A CO-WORKER. THEY STARTED ON TIME, DID A GREAT JOB AND EVEN CLEANED UP EVERY LAST SCRAP FROM OUR YARD. THE NEIGHBORS ARE ALL RAVING ABOUT OUR "NEW HOME". WE ARE VERY GLAD WE PICKED MINNESOTA EXTERIORS AND WILL USE THEM AGAIN!

I WORKED FOR A HOME BUILDER WHO USED THEM EXCLUSIVELY BECAUSE OF THEIR QUALITY WORK!

THE CREWS DID SUCH A BAD JOB THAT I HAD THEM REDOING THINGS BEFORE THEY WERE EVEN HALF WAY. THE SIDING QUALITY IS TERRIBLE(ROLLEX) AND THE INSTALLATION STILL LEAKS. I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND WAS TOLD TO TRY SUING AS THEY DO NOT RESPOND TO THEIR OFFICE EITHER. THIS COMPANY IS THE REASON I JOINED ANGIE'S LIST. GREAT SITE, JUST A LITTLE LATE IN MY CASE. THEY WERE CONSTANTLY TELLING A DIFFERENT STORY WHEN I DID GET SOMEONE TO TALK TO ME. THEY CHANGED STAFF NUMEROUS TIMES THROUGHOUT MY INSTALLATION AND WERE ALWAYS MISPLACING MY FILE.
