Patrick,I also want to let you know I am really impressed with HES, from the office staff to the guys working in the field. Communication has been excellent at all levels. Leslie and Vicky were very responsive when I called. Paul, has been on top of everything and has been great to work with. The foremen in the field were very easy to work with and I appreciated that they took the time to listen to my inputs and we worked together to find any underlying problems while do the siding that were roof related. This really was big deal to me and was one of the main reasons I chose to have you guys install my roof. I actually had another contractor lined up. I saw them do a roof on another house and noticed their inattention to detail and was concerned I would have to practically check on them every ten minutes to make sure nothing was overlooked. After seeing your siding crew work I was confident that the roofing crew would be just as diligent and attentive to detail and they were. Jesus and company were quick without compromising quality. Lastly the touch up done after the roofing job was done was greatly appreciated. Angel even took the time to clean up items that no one would have even seen.I have already recommended HES to my neighbor who is looking to have siding installed. Hopefully he gives you a call for his own benefit.I will be sure to let everyone know who worked on my house. HES has been the best contractor I have worked with.Regards,Paul P.

They did a fantastic job! they were on time and professional!

Great job! We made a few changes along the way and they were extremely helpful and accomodating.

Kudos to the salesman Bart, he was excellent in presenting the product and making it user friendly. Also, the foreman George, he was very helpful in answering any questions I had. He took time out to satisfy my questions. Excellent job for both of them.

From the initial sales meeting until final project completion, Home Exterior Systems, LLC kept me fully apprised of their scheduling and material deliveries. I was able to communicate with company representatives at any time via phone calls, emails, and the BuilderTrend software that they use.

The quality and professionalism exhibited by Home Exterior Systems was excellent. This includes the entire experience including sales, front office and most especially the project manager and crew. We highly recommend them to any one considering exterior upgrades.

The whole organization worked well together.

After several quotes, HES produced a detailed and thorough quote for the work of residing my entire house. The price was very reasonable, the work and crew assigned to me were hardworking, thorough and kept things clean, before and after job. There was no slack, they worked as soon as they arrived 7:30am/8am until 6pm.Very attentive, very respectful/polite, questions were always answered. Jorge, Project mgr, was especially very detailed oriented which I greatly appreciated. No pressure, they let me have time to decide.Recently retired, this was a BIG deal for me since i will live here the rest of my life, and i do not accept work "halfway" done or just to get by.There are no perfect jobs of this size, but I would say this job was 99.9%. I would 125% recommend HES w/Bart, Leslie and Jorge, and his crew, to anyone who wants a great facelift for their home.

They are very professional and do a good job.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Prompt and curtious

I can not effectively express in the written word the level of satisfaction I have with Home Exterior Systems. The entire process went as advertised. The proposal was extremely detailed and priced out several items that may have been required on the vinyl to hardi conversion of my 30 year old home. The materials arrived and work started with adequate advanced notice when promised. The work crew was absolutely amazing - working hard, smart and safe like a military deployment of Seal Team Six with the mission objective to leave me highly satisfied - Mission accomplished! Change orders were minimal and very well explained and documented. Credits for items not needed were applied without me having to ask about it. Project timeline was advertised as 6 days and ready to paint. I was 100% complete with paint and a LOT of additional soffit framing in 7.5 days. That's what I call nailing the schedule. Total net add to original proposal with change orders and credits was less than one point five percent (1.5%). The same crew handled everything from demo, install, and paint. The job site was maintained in a clean and orderly fashion throughout the process. These guys treated my home as if it were their own. The only experience I have had with a contractor that I could be gone from home all day to be at work 60 miles away and not worry one time about the work taking place at my house. The use of builder trend was a neat plus as well. All project documents, proposal, and progress photos available to you 24/7 anywhere in the world with an internet connection. A great company, great people, high level of commitment and professionalism. This is hands down the best experience I have had outsourcing needed work at my home. Home Exterior Systems - engage them with confidence void of headaches and surprises! I am so impressed with the overall process, I would not hesitate to work for them! 100% satisfied. 100% value for my money.

Follow Up

Bart Marnitz did an exceptional job of outlining what to expect out of the proposal process and project execution. The proposal was nothing short of the best I had ever seen, and the cost details were superb. The whole process start to finish was exactly as advertised by Bart. I could not be happier. Easy going, has the technical details, answered all my questions immediately. A great communicator and representative of Home Exterior Systems and James Hardie Products.

Project Manager Professionalism

Jorge Correa was total awesomeness along with his crew. Jorge kept me apprised of what the daily work plan was day to day, and managed the effort to the plan while working in and around rain showers to exceed my expectations. Extremely professional as with the rest of the crew. The few change orders I had were explained very well and priced fairly. Jorge and crew are welcome at my place anytime they are in my area.

Quality Of Workmanship, Materials, Crew

Again, I can not say enough about Jorge and the crew. I was asked multiple times daily when I was out and about watching the magic happen if I was satisfied and if things were going in-line with my expectations. I was ecstatic to see one of the crew ( the other Jorge - uncle Jorge) have his son on staff. Its a great thing to give a young man an opportunity to learn a craft while spending time with his family. The entire crew functioned in perfect unison, like the 'Seal Team Six' of siding and paint.

Value

I solicited 3 bids. Home exterior systems fell just under the high bid and somewhat above the low bidder. The low bidder generally is the low bidder for a reason. I am very happy and relieved I went with Home Exterior Systems.

Areas For Improvement

My expectations were met 100%. If I was asked for anything I would change say if I owned the company, my only change would be a wrap or nice paint job on the tool and dump trailers. That's it. I wouldn't change a thing about the process, people or techniques used from start to finish.

Areas Of Satisfaction

A companies best asset is its people. Home Exterior Systems at all levels from the receptionist, sales, owners, and anyone of the guys on the work site presented themselves and their company in a very professional manner, were very diligent with their time on the job site, had an amazing 'economy of motion' in organizing materials / tools for the work at hand. I feel as if everyone involved in my project treated my property as if it were their own. The workers left me with the impression that they treat the company as their own company rather than just working for someone. They were very proud to be affiliated with Home Exterior Systems. Nothing but positive energy from all the crew and staff.

I am very happy and pleased with them.

The workmanship & materials were both excellent. I expected that, based on ratings from other people. However, I was extremely pleased at the EXCELLENT communication they had with us. They were far and away the BEST at keeping us updated on progress and answering questions. No other company I've ever worked with has even come close to HES's professionalism in the communication area!

Areas Of Satisfaction

1 - Communication - easy to contact and always got back to us quickly. And they initiated contact when needed (ex: letting us know when they had to change a date due to weather conditions).2 - Dependability - They always followed through on providing the services they promised. 3 - Personnel - Their workers stayed focused on their jobs. Also, I liked the way the supervisor treated the installation workers, guiding instead of yelling and giving them sufficient breaks. That shows me that their skills are valued by the company, which I believe to be important to the quality of the final product. I have seen workers treated terribly by other companies and I would never hire those companies again.

We can't say enough about how please we were with the job Home Exterior Systems did on our house. Our experience started with the salesperson, Bart Marnitz coming to our house and giving us the estimate. He was very professional and was able to answer all our questions honestly. Bart did an awesome job with the estimate including pictures of what was to done on the project. Honestly Bart sold us on going with Home Exterior Systems.thank you Bart! We also had a lot of contact with Leslie Hawkins, Leslie kept us informed on when the start date on the project would begin. We had several conversations about the project and always kept us well informed. She would always respond quickly if I had to leave a message. Thank you Leslie for your professional way of doing business. Now to the actual construction project. Jorge Correa was our project manager. I can't say enough about how professional Jorge and his crew were. It was amazing to watch them do the work on our house. What a crew of craftsmen. I felt our house was not easy to do, being a 2 story with a lot of steep angles to work with. They handled everything perfectly. We felt they treated our house like it was one of their own. What a beautiful job they did on our house, we are so happy with the job. The house looks brand new. Jorge answered all of our questions and kept us well informed about the project. Jorge thank you and your crew for everything, we appreciated all the hard work. We also had a door and 2 windows installed by Home Exterior Systems and again they did a professional job with those projects also. Also thanks to the McCollim's, who I also had contact with, you should be proud of the business you have! If you want a professional business with high quality craftsman doing your project I would HIGHLY recommend Home Exterior Systems.

I highly recommend Home Exterior Systems. They could not be better. They have been very good in communicating with me.

The whole process from the presentation of the project to the end was very smooth. Of all the bids for the project, the one for HES had the best price. I was kept well informed throughout the project and all members of the company were extremely courteous. The transformation of my house with the new Hardie siding and gutters was beyond my expectations and I would definitely recommend HES to others.

Installation of Hardi-Plank around house, installation of windows. They also went out of their way to cover exposed conduit pipes on our patio & covered any holes in attic where varmints were entering. We are extremely pleased with this company and plan to use them again in the near future.

We recently decided to redo our siding, roof and gutters. We did extensive research of Hardie siding and for the right contractor. After meeting with 4 contractors, we decided to go with Home Exterior Systems. We found their reputable reputation in Houston, product knowledge, and patience in helping us select the right products and color scheme for our house was the right decision. We also replaced a door and converted a window to a door off the pool area. From the owner’s son, Caleb, to Jorge, (Siding Team Mgr), Paul (Roofing Team Mgr),Tommy (Gutter Team Mgr), and Leslie were all professional, knowledgeable, answered our continued questions, offered solutions during the project, and kept the project on schedule. Suggestions they offered, we feel were the right choices and would benefit us long term. We’ve gotten so many wonderful compliments on the new look of our home. I love my new home!! We highly recommend Home Exterior Systems!
