 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great job! We used Total Exteriors for an insurance project after the impact of a July hail storm. Dillon and his crew did an amazing job of putting our minds at ease throughout the process of scheduling and replacement. The team exceeded all expectations for reliability, quality of work and speed, and were very responsive throughout the project timeline. Our eaves are functioning better than ever, our siding is refreshed and hopefully now our home is ready to withstand another summer hail storm!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 100% recommend. Great, honest, efficient, and hardworking team here. Between weather delays and so many jobs from the hail storm in July, they kept us updated throughout the schedule planning. They replaced my full roof of shingles and garage in one day on a very high roof. With the 3 guys working so fast, there were quite a few roofing nails left but someone came back 3 times with a magnet to pick them up. They also replaced my eaves trough and did a much better job than the original builders. The engagement with Martin was friendly and professional and he put the extra effort in to ensure the job was done right and we were happy. I would definitely use this company again.
