More than 50,000 people cast their votes in the South Central Wisconsin’s Best of the Best awards, and Steadfast Remodeling came away with four wins in the House & Home category.
This family-owned business based in Mauston, Wisconsin, was voted Best Home Improvement Company and Best Roofing & Gutter Contractor. And they were also chosen as favorites in the Best Residential Builder and Best Window Company categories.
How did Steadfast emerge as a leader in the field? Here are some of the things that set them apart from the pack.
Customized designs you can see before you start
“We brought big city ideas to this local community,” said owner Duston Alveraz. “Our 1,200-square-foot showroom gives people a hands-on experience of all the materials we use. We also work with a couple of architects, and we can show people what their houses are going to look like before we even begin.”
Whatever type of exterior remodeling you need — windows, doors, siding, roofing, even a deck or garage — the process starts with a free estimate. Alveraz will come to your home with a full range of samples so you can choose everything, from the style and materials to the colors and hardware you want.
He’ll take all the necessary measurements and, using advanced software, will create a custom design to show you exactly what the finished job will look like, then give you an estimate of the cost.
You can then come to the showroom where every product is on display to double-check your choices and, if necessary, make any changes before things are finalized. This is especially useful for checking colors, which can have a different impact at full size than on a smaller sample.
Only after this review will the contract be finalized and your materials custom ordered.
Locked-in pricing
Traditionally, manufacturers in the home improvement industry raise prices at the start of each new year — but this may not be the most convenient time to begin your project.
If that’s the case, Steadfast will allow you to contract for the work now and lock in current prices, then begin the job when you choose.
Top manufacturers with industry-leading warranties
Steadfast uses products from major manufacturers — products that are much higher in quality than the cheaper versions those companies make for the big box stores.
These products also come with outstanding manufacturers’ warranties. Diamond Kote siding and TimberTech Advanced PVC decking, for example, come with a 50-year warranty.
Because installation is as important as the quality of the product itself, Steadfast also provides their own installation warranty. And Alveraz and his crews have been fully trained and certified by the companies whose products they install.
Making sure every customer is 100% satisfied
Talk to almost anyone who’s worked with a remodeling company and one of the most common complaints is that workers don’t show up at the time — or even the day — they’re supposed to.
“This is another thing that sets us apart from many other remodeling companies,” said Alveraz. “We arrive when we say we will. Our great crews are all directly employed by us.”
What’s more, there’s a foreman on every job to deal with any issues or questions that might arise during the remodel. If the foreman can’t solve the problem, Alveraz will come out to the site and make sure everything is taken care of to the customer’s satisfaction.
“We want to make sure that every customer is 100% happy from the start of the project to the final walkthrough when it’s completed,” he said.
