“We began gathering estimates for a James Hardie exterior re-siding of our cedar sided home in late winter. We received estimates from three local, reputable installers. Bak Brothers' estimate was in the mid-range of the three. What convinced us to go with Bak Brothers was the responsive, thoughtful engagement with sales rep Scott Dunda. Scott provided excellent service, and was responsive to our needs as the process proceeded.
Once we chose Bak Brothers, Greg Krys became our point of contact as the project manager. Like Scott, Greg was always available and responsive to our questions and concerns. In cooperation with Greg, as well as Peter and Tomas who did the actual residing, we made changes and improvements as the project went along. The project began sooner than originally and planned, and while it took a few days longer than expected, we could not be happier with our "new" house, and will recommend Bak Brothers to anyone looking for a high quality, competitively priced James Hardie siding project. Thank you“
“After many years in waiting my wife and I decided we needed new windows for our home. We had a lot of windows including some picture windows. My wife asked me to find a Chicago area contractor. Thinking about this and knowing that there were lots of Ukrainians (prior experience working with Ukrainain software developers who are considered some of the world's best programmers) living in the Chicago area I started looking for window contractors that were Ukrainian base...... and I found one. The name of the window contractor was E. V. Windows & Doors. Our first meeting with Chris was great and somewhat unique. At the end of the meeting, I asked Chris why we should hire him. Chris responded saying they were the best ... ... ..and he said he had a team of Ukrainians working for him.... which was the best, most concise value proposition and greatest sales close I have ever experienced. For those who have never had the Ukrainian worker experience I strongly suggest you use E. V. Windows & Doors. Allow Chris to prove to you the masterly great Ukrainian work as they do window installs for your home. The only negotiation was discussing how soon he could start. Starting date became the main thing. While waiting for Chris's team to come a couple months later we would contact Chris and ask him questions about the project. When we had a question, we would email, or call and we got a near immediate response with a brief and accurate summary. They always responded quickly with great suggestions and updated us on the manufacturing and supply chain process for new windows. Being introduce to the window manufacturing-supply chain process with updates on each was very different from other prior service providers In the middle of September, Chris's Ukrainian team came to our home. Stefan, a nice and very smart guy was the crew leader. Introduicng himself in a professional manner, Stefan described the process they would use, a first for me. Other contractors for other jobs never explain in length in the manner Stefan describe to me. Then they went to work. Instead of being gabby like other work crews we had in our home from prior work they were heads down getting the work done. They moved fast, being very neat and tidy, always picking up anything that fell. When I came by and asked a question they immediately answered and then went right back to work. One thing I noticed as they were working was how focused and effective they were as they installed the larger picture windows on the second floor of our home. Despite the window size each crew man was able to install the window by himself. When the windows were installed, Stefan as they were finishing up explained how we should take care of the windows. As he was describe what, how, and why, I started noticing the window frames. Their structure looked very solid compared to other window designs I had seen at other retail locations. One of the other facts about Stefan and his crew, it took them only a few hours to get all the windows and everything in our home clean up. We were told by other vendors that our window project would take up most of the day. So I say try out E. V. Windows & Doors.....and enjoy the Ukrainian work experience. It will be a most interesting and wonderful experience.“

“We had foundation problems with the footings of our brick pillars in front of our bungalow. Gary came out and assessed the problem and confidently talked us through the process. The quote was right where we expected it to be and the team of two who did the work were exceptionally skillful. All our neighbors commented on the quality of work they were doing. Apparently the standard brick size has changed since our house was built. The search for the right size proved to be a challenge which they were successful in finding with their dedication to get the job done right. They also squared up our concrete stairs. Highly recommend and will keep calling the doctor when the need arises.“

“We hired Houseworks to install a new skylight in our townhouse stairway. They were excellent from start to finish. They recommended a larger skylight (for small additional cost) than what we were looking for, which worked out great. They had to coordinate with our HOA-hired roofers (they were replacing the roof), which was no easy task but it was handled seamlessly. Great experience!“

“Steve, Alex, John and the entire installation crew are wonderful to deal with. First Steve (the President) came to our house, discussed our siding options and presented us with his personal design ideas to really make our house pop. He succeeded beyond our expectations. We chose the James Hardie fibercement siding. The entire exterior has transformed into a home to be proud of with enhanced curb appeal. John and the installation crew showed up on time and stayed until the sun set every day. They also cleaned up every day. Their attention to detail and quality really stood out to my wife and I. If you need siding, windows, etc contact Nu Concepts and you will not be disappointed.“
