Our fleet of trucks service all six Chicagoland counties, year round, in effort to minimize chimney fire statistics.

In 1986 John Gallagher had one goal – to provide top quality exterior remodeling products and workmanship at a reasonable price along with incredible service before and after the job. Exterior Designers Inc started with and maintains that philosophy and mission.

"I requested quotes and met with a number of companies. By far, I enjoyed meeting with John. He was informative and thorough at our meeting. Given the information provided, and our own research, I also felt as though our values matched up nicely. So much so, that we planned on using EDI services, given the quote was reasonable. However, we were never given our quote. We were strung along by a series of emails, and then received no more responses. I have tried many times to reach out for the quote, and after that, to inquire as to what happened. Again, no response at all. Now, after waiting so long, we have to start the entire process over again, and as it is October, we essentially have no hope of getting a new roof this season. I really hope our current last through the winter. This is entire unprofessional behavior, and I grow so weary of companies that make promises and do not fulfil them. We should at the very least be treated with enough respect to be given an explanation as to why they cannot or will not perform the work."

Wood stairs and railings repairs FAQs

Hiring a professional to refinish your wood stairs costs an average of 20% to 30% of the total project cost. While this adds to your budget, it's essential for preserving your staircase's integrity and safety. A certified expert can complete refinishing a 10-tread staircase in about two hours, providing a flawless finish that boosts your home's appeal and value.

The time it takes to refinish stairs depends on whether you do it yourself or hire a professional. A professional team can finish the core work in approximately two hours, while a DIY project may take up to a week due to careful sanding, drying, and sealing. Hiring a pro ensures the job is done efficiently and with high-quality results.
