Critical: Professionalism Sales person was rude, arrogant, and disrespectful. Chicken scratch the entire quote on white paper (did not understand or knew what I was buying/quoted). Their price was as high as Anderson Windows! Service: Window installation

B&R replaced our roof, siding, soffit and fascia. All the work was completed on our required schedule, and we are very pleased with the final result. Throughout the installation they placed a strong emphasis on quality and diligently repaired all existing damage, replaced all flashing, etc. I am 100% confident that the new materials are installed properly and the house is now sealed and tight. Thank you B&R.

Buyer Beware! We ordered a front door & storm door, garage entry door, and sliding door for walkout. We were told it would be 90 days. What a joke. 6 months later with persistent calling they 'moved up' our installation. There was an issue with each door. The sliding door opened the wrong way which wouldn't work with existing window treatment. The storm door opened opposite from the front door. The garage door wasn't self closing and the trim was the wrong color.
Next more and more and more waiting for the correct sliding door and storm door and the other fixes. We sold the house 9 months after the order when the work still wasn't finished. We had to provide paperwork to potential buyers showing the work would get done, someday. The month we moved the work was finally complete - 11 months after the order! Insane. They are good at pressuring you to buy. Making promises they can't keep.
I tried to cancel after 6 months of waiting but you only have 3 days after ordering. Solution - go with another company. I decided to finally write a review because I cringe every time a commercial for them comes on. This was before COVID.

My wife and I chose Builders and Remodelers for replacing all our windows. The process was smooth, they stuck pretty well to their timeline, they cleaned up really well, and they addressed our minor concerns. They even came back based on the inspector's recommendation to add an additional barrier for water mitigation. The only wish I would have for them would be to be more communicative. It would have been nice to hear where we were in the queue as there is a long lead time from order to install. Additionally, the installers should have called before they made their follow-up visits. They just showed up and luckily I'm working from home to let them in. It could have been a problem if I wasn't home.

Ordered siding for house. Took 7 weeks when material was ordered and arrived - installation started the following week. Finished job in 1 day. The crew was amazing. A few small discrepancies were all addressed and taken care of within 3 days. Many compliments from neighbors with the job they have done. Cleanup from job was great - this is the 2nd time I have used builders and remodelers. The first was for windows throughout the house. They address and handle any concerns you may have.
