    Lake Cook Exteriors installed our front entry and storm door. Their products are well made. We love the style of door and the glass window etching design! The installer was great and pays attend to details. The door was installed with great precision . The painter was very meticulous to the color and details to make sure you are happy with the finished paint job. Everyone was fantastic to work with. From start to finish we felt well taken care of. We would highly recommend Lake Cook Exteriors.

    My old house was a drafty mess. After a friend recommended Lake Cook Exteriors, I knew I was in good hands. Don, their salesman, came by the next day to measure and give me a quote. Bill, the owner, also stopped by to answer a few questions. Both were incredibly knowledgeable and professional. They even provided a list of local projects theyd completed.With over 40 years in the construction industry, I know a good job when I see one. After accepting their bid, they informed me there would be a slight wait for custom-made windows. The materials were delivered and stored safely out of the way.The crew arrived promptly and worked diligently every day. They were always courteous and professional. Bill and Don checked in regularly to ensure everything was going smoothly.Thanks to their expert work, The new siding and windows look fantastic, my house is now draft-free and energy-efficient. The noise from the busy street is significantly reduced, and the temperature inside remains consistently comfortable. Lake Cook Exteriors did an amazing job!

    Lake Cook Exteriors was AMAZING to work with. They replaced all of our windows and our front door. Nolan and team were easy to work with on the business side and communication was amazing. The installers were very friendly and nice and they did an outstanding job. We are thrilled with the product and glad we found them. We would be happy to recommend them to anyone. Plus they are a local Palatine family and we always enjoy using family businesses.

    I had windows on my front porch installed and a new entry door. Owning an older home sometimes presents problems, but John the installer is great. Added wood so windows fit perfect. Was neat and professional and made the whole process easy. The front door was stained to match my woodwork perfectly and I cannot be happier. I have worked with Lake Cook Exteriors before and am never disappointed.

    Weve had windows replaced back in 2020 with Lake Cook exteriors, and now just finished new siding. They have been great to work with, very responsive of our needs. Excellent team to work with and couldnt be happier with the product!

  • Review 6 (2024-06-22 - Rating: 5)

    5 stars is not enough for this company. I had soffits, fascia and gutters replaced on my fairly old house. I worked with Don and John. Don was on site every day ensuring his commitments to me were met and kept me updated as things progressed. There were a few fairly big, unexpected issues with my house but I never worried because John is an artist and Lake Cook Exteriors does whatever it takes to meet expectations. I am so happy with the work and the people and the professionalism that I am having more work done! New exteriors doors and a storm door. That will be another review but so far, is exactly as I expected. Great craftsmen, nice people and a great company. If you need work done, please please, please call this company. You will be so happy with the results.

    Lake Cook Exteriors recently installed new windows at the parsonage of our church. They were wonderful to work with and did excellent quality work. They were great at communication and kept us in the loop through the whole process. We appreciated their willingness to be flexible with our special requirements and circumstances. Highly recommend them!

    From start to finish, Lake Cook Exteriors did a fantastic job. They were professional, courteous, respectful of both my time and my house, and responsive to any questions and concerns that I had. On top of all of that, they were competitive and provided a great finished product at a very reasonable price. I hope to never need anymore exterior house work, but if I do, I wont have to look far to find the right company for the job. Would recommend

  • Review 9 (2024-05-10 - Rating: 5)

    The work performed by Lake Cook Exteriors was excellent and very professional. The workers were very dedicated and conscientious and excellent at their job trades. The vinyl siding looks great. The color of the siding is perfect for the rest of our decor. The seams in the siding are very subdued. Very clean look. The oversize gutters are a plus and rain diverters do the trick. The sales representative is always available for questions and very conscientious. Both sales rep and/or owner were at the job site daily. Great follow-up. Their pricing is reasonable. Would recommend Lake Cook Exteriors to anyone.

    Lake-Cook did a great job installing new siding, insulation and gutters. Don and Bill stayed on top of the job and it went smoothly. Jack and Jerry did the actual install and were obviously expert.If you pick Lake- Cook for your home exterior work, you will be pleased with the process, the price and the outcome.

  • Review 11 (2023-09-13 - Rating: 5)

    I worked with Don to get my gutters done. They also installed their version of gutter guards which have performed well. Its been a year since they did the install and I have had no issues. They did a great job and the gutter guards are still in place and working as promised. I highly recommend Lake Cook Exteriors!

  • Review 12 (2022-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    My experience with Lake Cook Exteriors was phenomenal from start to finish. They were extremely accommodating with a difficult installation, going above and beyond to help me. Their timing always met with my schedule, for measuring, installation and additional painting to match my other painted areas. In addition, Bill (the owner) even came and assisted in the flooring to make it an easier entrance for me. This is one of the best companies I have had working in my house, a definite 10 stars!

  • Review 13 (2022-01-26 - Rating: 5)

    Lake Cook Exteriors is by far the most professional company Ive worked with. Every aspect from first meet to final install was as effortless and very easy on my part. My windows were installed in two days and the workmanship is outstanding. I cant recommend them enough.Awesome job.

  • Review 14 (2022-08-25 - Rating: 5)

    We just finished up a project where Lake Cook Exteriors sided our house. New gutters and downspouts were installed as well. It was great working with this company. They really know their product and are excellent with customer service. They have an excellent project manager that is in contact with you with each step of the process and he and the owner come by each day to answer questions and check on the progress. The team that does the installation has been with the company for many years. All around this is a top notch company.

  • Review 15 (2019-05-01 - Rating: 5)

    We had 3 estimates for windows and Lake Cook Exteriors had the best price. Nolan oversaw the entire process. He is very knowledgeable and always available to answer questions. Our windows came in sooner than expected and were installed within a week. John, the installer, did a fantastic job. He is very professional, cleans up after himself and easy to have in your home. Our windows look wonderful!! This is a great family owned business and we would definitely use them again.

  • Review 16 (2023-12-17 - Rating: 5)

    I had used them before and they exceeded my exactions for a full gutter replacement. Now I just had a front storm door replaced and a garage door with casement replaced and they did a fabulous job. They added trim in the inside of the garage (which wasnt there before) with out me asking. Totally professional and workers were great.

  • Review 17 (2021-12-29 - Rating: 5)

    Lake Cook Exteriors did a fantastic job on vinyl siding our whole house back in June. We couldnt be happier! The crew did a great job cleaning everyday after their work. Bill and Don were a pleasure to deal with. Professional and friendly staff. 100% recommend. Thank you Lake Cook Exteriors!

  • Review 18 (2022-12-27 - Rating: 5)

    Bill, Karen, and Nolan are pros, possibly the best in the business. My entire exterior is from Lake Cook, and we could not be happier. We had all windows replaced, including a bay window put in. This year, they did our soffits and facia and our siding. I highly recommend them and would not venture elsewhere. We had many quotes previously, and their prices and service beat anyone. Thank you, Lake Cook for everything. My wife and I sincerely appreciate all you do!

  • Review 19 (2023-05-09 - Rating: 5)

    The staff and crew at Lake Cook Exteriors are professional and perform excellent work. They did the replacement of my siding, fascia and gutters and exceeded expectations with quality work. Highly recommended.

  • Review 20 (2018-08-28 - Rating: 5)

    From start to finish this project went amazingly smooth. Worked with Nolan to get an estimate on installing a new front door and their price was the best I had found. Ordered the door and was kept up to date on when it would be installed. John was prompt, polite and easy to work with, he did an awesome job. Overall, this was an easy process from the moment I called until the door was installed, which by the way, looks awesome! I would use them again in a heart beat.

  • Review 21 (2020-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    I live in Schaumburg and just had all my gutters and downspouts replaced by Lake Cook Exteriors in Palatine IL. A family run business of highly experienced and respectful people. I must say I was so happy to have them service my house. Don Tenuto who was my contact was professional and so helpful throughout this process. He covered all the bases and made sure I understood what was going to be done. The bid was the lowest on my 3000 sq foot house which was icing on the cake. John who has been with the company for many years did the installation. He was great!!! He also added a personal touch to my house recommending extensions in some places which was perfect. John was awesome and truly truly would give the whole group 10 stars for the great service. I would recommend Lake Cool Exteriors to anyone and all who are interested in having their gutters replaced. I also would be available for a phone recommendation as well!!!Kindest Regards,Roy

    Weve worked with Lake Cook Exteriors a number of times over the years - siding, doors and gutters. The prices are fair and the installers are professional and accurate. Would highly recommend and would use them again

  • Review 23 (2024-10-14 - Rating: 5)

    Lake Cook Exteriors did siding, soffit and fascia on my house and Im extremely happy with their service. They give you a list of houses that they did siding on so you can drive around to see different colors and pick the final choice which was very helpful. Also they give you a warranty. All of this for a very reasonable price. I highly recommend them to anyone.

  • Review 24 (2023-08-10 - Rating: 5)

    We had an outstanding experience with Lake Cook Exteriors doing the siding and gutters on our home! I would highly recommend them to any homeowner looking to update their home!

  • Review 25 (2019-05-14 - Rating: 5)

    Lake Cook Exteriors installed brand new gutters, gutter guards and downspouts. They were outstanding to work with every step of the way - from quote to completion. Fully explained everything, advised on best approach to our problem, came up with a viable and economical solution. I highly recommend Lake Cook Exteriors.

  • Review 26 (2019-03-11 - Rating: 5)

    This horrible winter warped our front door and cold air kept getting in. I called Pella first but they wouldn’t answer my questions over the phone. I called Lake Cook Exteriors and Nolan was extremely helpful. He and Karen rushed a new door order for us and John installed it on a very cold morning. We replaced a wooden door with a fiberglass door so I was a little nervous. No need, the quality, feel and appearance are all first class, and it won’t warp again! From beginning to end, my experience with this company was excellent.

  • Review 27 (2019-04-27 - Rating: 5)

    Where do I begin. This our second time using LCE. Quality owners and installer. Good pricing. Wonderful installation. Fast. Just a first class operation. I doubt We will purchase our third home but if we did, Lake Cook will be our choice again. When I replace the front doors and sliding door to the patio, the will be our first choice.Thank you so much!Brian and Kathy Ciesemier from Palatine.

    Don was very professional and personable. He was involved in our project from start to finish. His workers were on time each day and also very professional. We are very pleased with the work that was done and would recommend them to anyone.

  • Review 35 (2019-07-29 - Rating: 5)

    In need of gutters being replaced. Got 3.5 bids and went with LCE due to 3 reasons:1). Competitive pricing. With the nice website and glossy ads and visit & samples, I figured they would be at the upper end of the price range. They were ~$500 cheaper than the highest and within $25 of the lowest.2). People. Very responsive, answered questions, gave options, listened, and even answered the phones (dont laugh ... not all do).3). Competence. It was clear they knew about the materials, the process, timing, products, what they were doing, etc. Straight shooters and didnt try to talk me into what was easier for them.Results:- Main contact was with Don who speced the job and made all the arrangements. Called a few times to check the process and make sure scheduling was still good for us. Really on top of things and easy to see he really cared about the customer.- The guy who did the job (Jon - hope I spelled it right) was amazing. Never see someone work this hard; took no short cuts but instead did EXTRA to make sure things were done better than before and better than expected. Knocked on the door a few times during the install to ask about a preference here or there (wanted to make sure when there was a choice that we would get what we wanted), took time to show some of the hows and whys.- Afterwards LCE followed up to make sure everything was as expected ... and said call back anytime if anything else was needed.Bottom line: Said what they were going to do and then over performed / quality people and customer oriented / very competitively priced. Highly recommended!

  • Review 36 (2020-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    The gentleman that installed the gutters was willing to do the downspouts exactly the way I wanted because I was having my yard completely landscaping completely redone and I did not want the downspouts sticking out to far. He also did a beautiful job on the install and cleanup afterwards!!

  • Review 37 (2019-01-13 - Rating: 5)

    A pleasure to work with from start to finish. Everyone through the process was friendly and knowledgeable. Great quality and workmanship. Installation was professional and exceptional. Highly recommended!!

    We had an unusual window installation in our sunroom. It took two years to find someone willing to figure out how to do it - excellent carpentry, and still has the cottage look we wanted to keep. Great to work with every step of the way.

    We hired Lake Cook Exteriors to replace the door from our mud room to our garage. They made the entire process completely painless and Nolan was very kind in explaining everything to us! When it came time to install the whole process took maybe 45 minutes and it was a fantastic job. Highly recommend!1

    I had several replacement windows installed. The windows came in sooner than expected, and the installation was excellent. Any questions I had were addressed, and phone calls were returned promptly. It was a real pleasure to work with this company I will be having them replace my remaining windows soon.

  • Review 46 (2022-06-06 - Rating: 5)

    We couldnt be more happy with the outcome of our exterior work from Lake-Cook Exteriors. We had several new windows, an exterior door, siding and gutters installed. We worked with Don throughout the project. Don answered every question and helped guide our decisions throughout the project. He was extremely knowlegable and patient as we worked through all the options available. I have and will continue to recommend Lake Cook Exteriors to all my friends and family.

  • Review 47 (2020-02-19 - Rating: 5)

    The did the gutters on my home and it was an all-around great experience. I invited 5 companies to bid, we made our decision after we had received 3 of the 5 bids, the two remaining companies called to start the quotation process after Lake Cook had already completed the installation. Work was completed less than a week after I put the deposit down. Don was great to work with, fantastic experience.
