We install a short list of brands we trust, and we install them the way each manufacturer specifies so your warranty holds. Here is what goes into an Elite Improvements project, from the roof down to the faucet.
Roofing
Owens Corning is our main roofing line, and Elite Improvements is an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor. We also install GAF and Malarkey architectural shingles, including Class 4 impact-rated options. Every roof gets ice-and-water shield to code or beyond, synthetic underlayment, new flashing and proper ridge ventilation. See our exterior services.
Siding and trim
LP SmartSide engineered wood siding, James Hardie fiber cement, and Norandex vinyl, with Windsor exterior trim. We have recently completed several full LP SmartSide homes, and Hardie lap siding wraps our Pleasant Prairie lake home. House wrap, flashing and trim details are done to each manufacturer’s installation guide.
Windows and doors
Andersen and Pella windows and patio doors, Therma-Tru entry doors, and interior doors and millwork from Badger. For door hardware we use Emtek and Schlage.
Decks and porches
TimberTech composite decking on treated or steel framing, for decks, covered porches and lakeside platforms.
Kitchens and baths
Dura Supreme semi-custom and custom cabinetry is in more of our kitchens than any other line, alongside Countryside cabinets. Countertops are quartz and granite, templated and installed. Faucets, showers and fixtures come from Brizo, Delta and Kohler. See kitchen remodeling and bathroom remodeling.
Why the brand matters
A good product installed wrong fails early, and the manufacturer warranty will not cover it. We train our crews on the products we install and follow each manufacturer’s instructions, so you keep the full manufacturer warranty on top of our 3-year workmanship warranty on every project.
Have a brand in mind?
If you already have a product picked out, tell us at the planning meeting. If it is a good fit for your home, we will install it. If we think something else will serve you better, we will tell you why. Call or text 262-716-6663 or request a planning meeting.
Built once, built right, built for generations. Elite Improvements.
