We were looking for a good contractor who would be willing to do a small but important project to replace damaged siding in a couple areas on a 57 year old home. I saw all of the great reviews for Jerry, he was located nearby in Mount Prospect, and gave him a call. From the very first contact to the completion of the work, Jerry is the best! He saw that we needed some flashing in addition to the siding and created a better solution for the repairs. He is very busy but was able to fit us in because there was a cancellation. Very fair price, great work, excellent customer service, great value and service! read more

Angie Limperis September 19, 2026 Just had Jerry do work for me replacing my old tear-down garage roof and fixing in the front of my house a soffit issue which was pretty bad.

Jerry gets back to you right away also. Excellent again work. What is good about Jerry and his crew also they do big and small jobs. read more

I found this company on Yelp and couldn't be more impressed! Jerry was very personable and reliable. He had great communication (whether it was texting or talking on the phone) throughout the whole process. I needed some vinyl siding nailed down, rotted wood replaced, damaged siding fixed, and a lot of caulking around my windows. Jerry took care of it all at a great price. He also made it easy for me, so I didn't have to take off work. Plus, he was able to do the estimate and actual work all within 2 weeks. I highly recommend this company! read more

What an outstanding contractor! Jerry is simply the best! I needed to have my carport insulated so that my HVAC system would not run nonstop both in the Summer and the Winter. Jerry and his crew did a fantastic job getting my large carport prepared for the summer and the winter. They installed insulation, plywood, Tyvek wrap, and this new heat radiant product and vinyl. I found his price to be reasonable not to mention his workmanship was phenomenal. His attention to detail definitely demonstrates that he is a master craftsman. 5 stars. read more

We were having rodent issues because the bottom of our house was not sealed properly. Jerry did an amazing job repairing the bottom panel of siding around the entire house, sealing basement windows, and filling in some concrete gaps. His repair was quick and high quality. Jerry also answered all my questions clearly. I would highly recommend Jerry and his company for any siding repairs! read more

Jerry showed up in a pinch to help repair some siding that was damaged in a storm. I wasn't an existing customer, but the 5 star Yelp reviews helped me find him. I'm so glad they did! He did an excellent job finding the exact siding I needed, had it repaired in 40 minutes, and was on his way! Thank you so much for your help, Jerry! Angela (Des Plaines IL) read more

I have been using First siding & Windows for many years. They have done all kinds of work for me: new windows, new garage roof, etc. Most recently he installed a chimney flue cap at one of my rentals. Sounds simple enough, but the roof is 45 feet high and pitched. He also installed a new flat room on my house, taking care to seal every seam and connection. He did an outstanding job. The roof looks brand new and will last many years. read more

Jerry & crew do beautiful work. They are careful, show attention to detail and solve problems, not just put on bandaids. We are return customers and will have them out again! read more

Jerry installed new siding on the gables, gutters and downspouts, and replaced the awnings over the entry doors. His price was very fair and competitive, and the work was high quality and professional. He's friendly and nice, dependable and reliable, easy to reach, and extremely easy to work with. He also repaired an issue with my bay window so I didn't have to replace it and saved me a lot of money. He figured out the problem quickly and solved it like a pro. Great guy and I highly recommend him. I will definitely call Jerry if I need any more work done. read more

This is the second time I have had First Siding, Roofing & Windows out to our Deerfield home. Both times were for storm damage. Jerry is an "old school" craftsman. He is professional, courteous and very knowledgeable about his trade. I will use FSR&W in the future and strongly recommend their services. Casey Q. read more

I hired Jerry and his company to reattach 3 sections of aluminum siding fascia that had fallen from the front of my house due to the recent storms/wind. Jerry was very responsive and extremely reasonably priced. He arrived the next day on time and finished the job quickly. They also went above and beyond by reinforcing the rest of the fascia along the front of my house to be certain everything was attached perfectly. Would recommend in a heartbeat! read more

Jerry was clean and the work he did looks better than the original. We had hard to match siding and he went above and beyond to make sure he could help us. At the end he did a nice job of cleaning up; we couldn't even tell that work was done from looking at the ground. read more

Nothing but good things to say about Jerry. Responsive and came out and fixed my siding issue at a fair price on a weekend morning. Also had another issue come up that I didn't preview with him and he was able to address on the spot. Would highly recommend his services. read more

I live in a townhouse complex and had a a tiny leak in my roof deck that nobody seemed to be able to fix. I had Jerry and his crew come out as a second opinion and they were able to identify the leak and get it resolved! Jerry was responsive and does great work. Highly recommend if you have a difficult roof leak! read more

We had some broken hardieboard siding at ground level - I'm so glad we found Jerry through a referral from a local Hardieboard provider. He was professional, quick to respond, provided reasonable pricing. His repair work was solid/perfect, he knows exactly what he's doing. Highly recommend! read more

Being a new homeowner has been rough with all the necessary upgrades and repairs. We have had to deal with many different companies while addressing each issue and have experienced a lot of frustration. THANKFULLY, working with Jerry could not have been more frustration-free. We needed some new siding to cover some "bald" spots at the back of our house, and also had a crummy, rotting wood threshold to deal with beneath our French doors. He approached our issues with thoughtfulness and creativity in order to devise the best solution for each problem. We are very happy with the outcome, and everyone we have shown has been equally impressed. He did a great job of integrating the old with the new and it is so much cleaner looking than before. Jerry had extremely good communication throughout and was very dependable overall, which are too often rare qualities. So in essence he hit all the marks: reliable, good communication, did everything he said he was going to do, when he said he was going to do it, fair price, and great results. We will certainly consult him for any future siding, roofing, or window needs, and have already referred him to family members. read more

Jerry answered texts at 8:30 pm at night after wind storm in Chicago. Came to look at my siding the next day. Came back two days later and repaired it all. Gave me a quote up front and the price didn't change. He also guaranteed his work! Good guy and responsive. Would recommend. read more

I found a possible roof water leak. One company came out, looked from the ground and gave us an estimate. Another company didn't even come out but just used Google images for an estimate. Jerry, however, asked why we needed to have our roof changed. He actually inspected the roof himself and determined that a replacement was the only option. This concurred with my home insurance inspector's assessment. In about 2 weeks, we have a new roof. They did a great job at a very good price. read more

Jerry provided a timely and accurate quote without adding unnecessary add ons. He and his partner arrived on time and completed the work in the timing he said. The quality of their work was exactly what I was looking for, and I would use them again without hesitation. read more

I needed some siding work done and they were able to do the work quickly. High quality work, reasonable price.

I needed siding repaired. Jerry came out for an estimate and completed the job within the week at the price quoted. Highly recommend.

A wind storm knocked some fascia loose from our roof, and I was having a hard time finding someone who could come out and repair it. I got a recommendation to call Jerry and I'm so thankful I did. He responded right away and was able to came out the next day to remove the loose piece (which was banging around outside our bedroom), and was back 2 days later to attach a new one. Jerry was very communicative throughout the whole process, and the job was completed quickly, and thoroughly. read more

We had some siding that started coming off. Looked like the wood underneath was rotten too. I had no one to call but figured the rotted wood and my old siding would cost me a fortune. Fortunately I found Jerry who came out right away and fixed it. He was so honest and well priced. The wood was not rotten and the siding was professionally as quickly repaired. As for the cost - it was extremely fair. Jerry is a true professional - I was really pleased! read more

We got Jerry's name and contact information from his brother Greg's (also a general contractor) company when we called there, looking for someone to do emergency/same day repairs on a large section of our vinyl siding that had come lose as a result of the storms & high winds we've been having. Jerry called us right back and said he could be out within the hour to take a look, give us an estimate, and fix the vinyl siding (mind you, we'd already called AT LEAST a half dozen contractors, NONE of whom could even come out to give us an estimate, much less repair the siding, same day!) Jerry arrived at our single-family-home in the Wicker Park neighborhood shortly after we spoke on the phone and he couldn't have been more friendly and straight forward in his assessment of the damage and what it would cost to repair/replace the damaged sections of siding. He quoted us $300 for the entire job (including the cost of the replacement siding that he went out to purchase), and said he could complete the repairs within a couple of hours. We had been panicked that we'd have to pay A LOT more than $300 (out of pocket, due to our high ins. deductible), so we happily agreed to the price. Jerry worked quickly & precisely, demonstrating both his skillfulness in his craft as well as his dedication to getting the job done right. Icing on the cake was the fact that he couldn't have been a nicer guy! I would highly recommend Jerry for any siding/roofing/window repairs or projects requiring a skilled contractor. Honest, hard-working, fast, fairly priced and friendly...can't beat that combination!! read more

Jerry and his team recently resided my house and garage. They were extremely professional, on-time, and always cleaned up after each work day. Our was a complex job - lots of windows, odd angles and a large lot. They did an excellent job with both projects - suggesting changes that would enhance the overall project. We are thrilled with the end results and highly recommend them for future work. read more

Our HOA received five quotes and Jerry's was competitive, he was also only one of two that actually went on the roof before providing us with a quote. He had examined our skylights and determined they didn't need to be replaced which saved us thousands of dollars. Once we moved forward we were able to get scheduled quickly and the work was completed in a day. Very happy with how things went and would recommend. read more

We had a small job and were having trouble finding anyone who wanted to do it for a reasonable fee. Jerry did a great job, he followed up with me to get it scheduled. He showed up on time with all of the materials he needed and competed the work in a couple of hours. His fee was very reasonable and he did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. I would highly recommend Jerry for any work and will use him again if the need comes up. read more

We had a few shingles blow off the roof during a wind storm. I mad a few calls on that Friday and Jerry was the only one who answered. He was quick to address the issue and let me know he would be by first thing on Monday. Monday morning he was there first thing. He looked it over and gave me an estimate for $240. Meanwhile, another roofing company returned my call. The other company that shall remain nameless told me they received 100 calls over the weekend and at this point they were getting the roof "water tight" and giving estimates. To get the roof water tight would run $250 alone. Needless to say the other company seems to be wanting to take advantage of people. Jerry completed the work as promised. He was quick to respond and dos a great job. read more

My brick house has a small part of the peak that is sided, it was old wood siding that was rotting and the paint was peeling. First Siding came out and gave some samples for color options (and were patient while I was in between 2 colors). They replaced it and it looks fantastic. They were well priced and efficient, and they also did a great job of cleaning up any little debris on the ground. My neighbor happened to see them working and had a job he needed done as well and was happy with the results too. read more

We moved into a 20+ year old home with original cedar siding desperately in need of maintenance (caulk cracking, peeling or missing along edges to framing, windows, and doors, flashing out of place or missing, other various patching and upkeep needed). Jerry was one of the few vendors I found who focuses primarily on siding maintenance and repair vs. full siding replacement. He was prompt, provided high quality work, responsive to our requests, and overall was great to work with. I highly recommend Jerry's work for any siding repair or general siding maintenance needs. read more

We had some material disconnect from the roof overhang and they came out right away for a reasonable price and had it repaired same day.

Hired First Siding to repair trim around our NW Side townhome's 2.5 car garage. The framing and trim were 20+ years old and not in great shape. Jerry was great in explaining the problem and options to fix it. The total price paid for the job came under his estimate for parts. He was able to quote competitively against other bids and came out within days of scheduling instead of multiple weeks for other exterior repair companies. We're really happy with the result. read more

For a small repair to my siding, Jerry was easy to deal with and very responsive. I had called other companies and no one was interested in the repair. I'm glad I found First Siding and when I get around to replacing windows they will be the first place I call. read more

After many months of searching for someone willing to repair a loose, second story, metal awning, I found Jerry at First Siding Roofing & Windows- thanks to the many great Yelp reviews! Jerry responded very quickly to my texts, and had the repair done within days. Very efficient and quite confident in his work, guaranteeing I would not need to have this awning fixed again because he fixes it right the first time. Seems like a very capable company. read more

This was the second time I hired Jerry. My wood siding was damaged by woodpeckers, so I called him. He did a great job of taking care of it. New piece matches with existing siding very well. No one will be able to tell it has been replaced. Thank you!! read more

Was quoted $1240 for a job that would take three hours to complete thinking this was a fairly difficult job to do. They completed it in an hour. Seems like they over charged me about $1000. Would definitely not recommend this company. When I complained about the job they told me they would sit in their van for another two hours to make it three hours total. read more

Never had a guy threaten me with court when i was merely stating i didnt think the work was as good as i thought it was going to be. Evidently, He was going through an extensive surgery right after i accepted his proposal. Didnt tell me that until after i had agreed, wouldnt have agreed had i known that... little shifty there. I gave him the time he asked for because of surgery and even a little extra just under the assumption he would get to my project when he was better. Like many contractors, once he had me he didnt care about timing. I actually found out he got out of the hospital and started other projects (SUPER SHADY MOVE JERRY!) When doing it he asked if he could not take out the roofing under the AC units... of course i want you to take out the roofing under the AC units! Im paying for a full new roof replacement! He said he'd "throw in" some parapet wall pieces in quote but when the show started he seemed to forget that until i reminded him and nailed down how many "a few" meant. Later once i saw the roof and how flimsy it seemed, he hung up on me and said "ill see you in court" when it never even crossed my mind to not pay. I always pay my bills my parents taught me that. I paid him Every dime he asked for minus tequila bottle costs cited below. His crew hit the neighbors lights off when i asked before hand to be extra careful. He made me feel like i was not respecting his ability by making that statement. Ends up, his guys did break neighbors light. I bought neighbor a bottle of tequila and when i mentioned it to him he said "fine! ill buy you TWO bottles of tequila!" Like i was being pushy or something. Before the work i showed him where it was bowing causing water to pool and stated very clearly i wanted it leveled off in those spots with whatever methods he needed to do. Later i saw it pooling in those same spots, so yeah i was a bit peeved! He patched some parts later on and didnt paint over it properly so now i have these big black splotches in certain parts of my otherwise shiny metallic roof. I look at the roof and it looks OK. I did get cheaper quotes but he called me a liar when i said that. What a dick. Giving 1 star. he did finish the job (a month late) and it is what i would consider "decent". but i would drive to another state to get better work and customer service. He really did scare me with his legal threats so curious if he'll threaten me again now that im posting this. If he does ill post his text message thread with me when he threatened me so you all can be the judge. Ask him if hes going into the hospital before you go with him... read more

I had a garage window that was a piece of plexiglass, which leaked. Jerry replaced the window without having to do major wall surgery. Very pleased with the results read more

After a spring wind storm, a large piece of cladding was ripped off the second story of my home. (Cladding is the thin piece of metal that covers both the wooden window frame and the edge of the window.) I called several window firms and was told my job was too small. Luckily the last place I called recommended Jerry, owner of this company. Jerry got back to me same day. He asked me to send a couple of pictures and after reviewing them gave me a reasonable quote. He then stopped by to pick up a piece of the original cladding for color matching. The installation of the new piece happened a couple of weeks later. Jerry and one other worker arrived first thing in the morning, as scheduled. They had to set up their ladders in my front garden. They were clearly safety conscious and focused, and also took care to not trample any plants. They installed the new cladding quickly and carefully, and while Jerry had warned me that the color match wouldn't be perfect, I cannot see a difference. It looks perfect to my eye! We also had a piece of cable that had blown loose and was flopping around the side wall. Jerry took a few minutes to secure it along the wall before packing up his ladders. The job was finished in about an hour for the price quoted. As an owner maintaining a 100+ year old building, it is important to me to have meticulous professionals that I can rely on. I will definitely call Jerry again for future jobs and am happy to recommend him to you! read more
