Constraction reviews in North Little Rock, Arkansas

Sideco recently replaced most of our windows and doors. Perfectly beautiful! Perfectly installed!
It's hot and humid here...
The Windows and Doors that Sideco did NOT replace are wet and foggy each morning.
The ones they did replace (thankfully most of them) are clear.
The doors they installed are 'noise-cancelling' and secure!
There are bolts on 3 sides!!!
Before these doors were installed, we could hear and feel all that was happening on either side. We are truly thankful for the silence and security provided now!
Over the past decade, We've spent thousands having these doors and windows re-sealed and repaired.
I wish we'd saved that money to have the replacements!

If you're looking for the best siding company in Arkansas, look no further. Jimmy's crew did a phenomenal job with our home. This is not your typical "construction crew." These guys provide excellent service, show up when they say they will be there, and work hard all day. I even witnessed them work in the rain and on Sundays. And on top of that I have beautiful Hardie Board on my home that I'm so proud to show people. Jimmy and Anthony are both so knowledgeable and they make sure all the I's are dotted and T's are crossed before installation to provide you with a warranty guarantee from James Hardie. They've given me, my dream "modern farmhouse" home. I've never seen anything like this in the world of construction. I would hire them all over again! You will not be disappointed picking these guys. I promise!!

Sideco has completed several home projects for us both in Little Rock and in Fayetteville. The latest addition to our home is a wonderful, NO maintenance Timbertech deck that I just LOVE! We shared our ideas with Sideco on the design and John and his team set to task on creating an amazing outdoor space that is everything I ever dreamed of! They not only doubled the usable space, but John incorporated our existing trees, bamboo and flowering shrubs to accent the deck. I have beautiful railing, a safety gate for my grandchildren, and an amazing stairway down to my custom made garden bench that John was able to add for my many plantings! It's amazing! Everything was done with the utmost professionalism, courtesy, and craftsmanship. They even worked through cold temperatures, wind and rain. I would recommend Sideco to anyone who wants to beautify their home, create an outdoor space or otherwise improve the exterior of their home. It is a deck that my entire family can enjoy for years to come. Great company to work with and dedicated workmen who take pride in their craftsmanship. Amazing from start to finish! :)

We have done many home improvement projects. Sideco is by far the most professional, efficient, and courteous contractor we have dealt with. The crew was amazing and a joy to work with. Overall, Sideco greatly exceeded our expectations! We wish they did more than siding and windows!

Had my siding, windows, soffits, and gutters replaced by these guys. They did a stellar job, showed up on schedule and got everything done and cleaned up. Thorough work; they took care of all the little details like touchup around the interior trim, flashing, gutter kickouts, etc. I'm very happy with the results.

My wife and I contracted with Sideco Inc to replace all of the siding and windows on our home and couldn’t be happier with the work they did! From our initial consultation to the finished product they were honest, courteous and set a reasonable level of expectation for when the project would be completed and the steps of the process. I would highly recommend Sideco to anyone looking to install new hardie to their home or other exterior renovation projects!

Executive Summary – If you have a project that Sideco might be able to handle, call them first and talk with owner Jimmy Russell about it. You’ll be very happy you did.

Our Project – the replacement of second story exterior deck. Mr. Russell first visited our house to inspect the deck that was to be removed and to discuss our ideas about the new deck. Soon after that, we met with Mr. Russell at his office to select the decking and railing materials and finalize other elements of the project. In a week or so, we met again to review a detailed estimate of the project and to see rendered photos of the new deck on our house.

Our team, headed by Jon Ward, was top notch and their craftsmanship was outstanding. They were punctual, pleasant, hard working, attentive to detail and maintained an always neat job site, even during demolition. We are especially appreciative of a recommendation made by Mr. Ward to reconfigure the roof from a shed to a gable design. It truly transformed the final look of the deck and will undoubtedly enhance our enjoyment of it. That type of consideration and creativity meant a great deal to us.

Conclusion – We would unreservedly recommend the Sideco team to anyone. It was obvious to us that they have a great deal of pride in their work and service. They clearly strive to exceed their customer’s expectations, which they certainly did in our case. Thanks to Jimmy, Jon and the entire Sideco team.

We strongly recommend Sideco Inc. to anyone wishing to renovate or build a house. When we decided to renovate our house, we contacted the James Hardie Company to see if there is an authorized builder in Central Arkansas. Within 24 hours, we received an email from Mr. Jimmy Russell, president of Sideco, Inc. and he invited us to see his showroom. During our visit, he informed us in detail about the James Hardie technique and products. We decided to go ahead with having Sideco and our contractor. Meanwhile, we hired a local architect to design an entry portico and to oversee the entire renovation project. When our architect learned that we had selected Sideco to do the renovation, she remarked that we had made an excellent choice since she has worked on residential project with this company. After this reassurance and online research, we signed a contract with Sideco to perform the following:

• Demolition of old cedar siding and replacing it with Hardie Boards;
• Building a new portico according to the architect’s design;
• Installing three Marvin sliding patio doors;
• Installing a custom-made front door with sidelights;
• Installing new gutters;
• Painting brick;
• Removing our back door and walling it up with Hardie Board;
• Advice on the type and color of Hardie Board to be used.

There were other small tasks diligently performed to make the house ready.

Mr. Russell assigned Mr. Anthony Tippitt to be the on-site manager for our project. For about three weeks, the core crew of 12 people worked from 8:00 AM until 5:00 PM with only one hour for lunch.

We are impressed by the organization of the work, quality of the material used, efficiency, cleanliness, and overall professionalism of Sideco and its employees. We want to highlight the problem-solving abilities as unforeseen difficulties arose from the house being old. As we watched the crew working on a daily basis, everyone took pride in their craft. We had great communication with Mr. Tippitt and with Mr. Russell. They both stayed in touch with our architect.

While all crew members deserve praise, we would like to give special thanks to Mr. Tippitt and to a leading crew member, Mr. Jimmy Shahan for their problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and sincerity.

We thank Sideco, Inc. for making our house into a lovely home. We are getting a lot of enthusiastic feedback from our neighbors in for having done a well-rounded renovation. We even see some passers-by taking photographs of our house.

We would glady give Mr. Russell our reference. He may also invite his clients to see our house. We wish that Sideco, Inc. will continue to have many happy customers.

Sincerely, Anthony and Joanna Newkirk

We were 100% satisfied with everything about Sideco. We have hired them twice. First to do Harding Siding on our Ranch house and most recently to redo our vacation house. They are professional, very responsive, everything they do is the highest quality, their employees are polite, respectful and truthful. In both projects we've added on somethings to the original project and both times they were handled with best practices and at reasonable prices because the team was already there. When they leave they pick up everything including going around the yard with magnets to get loose nails, etc. Jimmy told us once they leave if we had any issues he'd take care of them. We had a small issue at our ranch house and they came out and fixed it in a timely manner. They did the ranch house about 4 years ago. When we got ready to redo the vacation home they were our first choice. We are so glad we hired them to do the job. We were totally comfortable knowing it would be done right and for a reasonable price. It also took them far less time than any other contractor we know. They get to the job and get to work!!!! There were no misunderstandings in what we asked for and what was delivered!!!! That's huge!!!! Thank you Sideco for Jobs Well Done!!!!

We have an amazing new deck, thanks to the great team from Sideco! They tore off our old, decrepit, wood deck, and designed a new deck using Timbertek. They also replaced our atrium floor, and a wood walkway in our front entrance, and rebuilt our front entrance bench. The results are beautiful, and we couldn't be more pleased! This is the 3rd big project Jimmy Russell and his awesome team of craftsmen have completed for us (they replaced our siding and windows two years ago). This company is wonderful to work with, from start to finish!

We have used Sideco/Windco Inc for 2 very large projects. The first was removal of every square inch of old wood on our 1950's house to be replaced with HardiePlank. We also had every window in our home replaced with new Marvin windows. The window work included the complete redo of the woodwork inside and out.

They said that they would complete in two weeks and they even beat that by 1 day. Plenty of workers were there as needed and the quality was first rate. All of the staff were very professional and our neighbors even commented on how nice they all were.

Our second major project was a large TimberTech deck across the back with a large pavilion. They completed that project in three weeks and the quality was monitored everyday by me and my neighbor. What we like about this company is that they take the time to DO IT RIGHT and even take care of the small details to make things perfect.

Jimmy and Mary Russell’s company is a great company. They replaced the siding and a few windows on our house about 3 years ago. We just had them to replace some more windows this last week. Brent, Pat, Tom, Aleave and Adela were such a pleasure. Always on time and such wonderful attitudes, and they did a great job. My husband and I highly recommend them for any window or siding job you need. Wiley and Paula.

We contracted Sideco to remove Dryvit and replace with James Hardie Siding, plus open the back wall for a large sliding glass door, add new windows, remove old windows, and build a new front and back deck. We were absolutely blown away by their attention to detail, professionalism, craftsmanship, and ability to handle the complex problems that were found behind the Dryvit. The whole team was fantastic and we were sad to see them go! The team's knowledge and experience guided us every step of the way with color choices, siding patterns, and other little suggestions that really gave our house the charm and appeal that we were looking for. They had excellent site management, they were friendly, and the final project is more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. It looks like a brand new house! I wish I could go on and on about how awesome the Sideco team is. Thank you to Jimmy Russell, Anthony, Richard, Jimmy, and the whole team! Final words are that the project exceeded our expectations and the team felt like part of the family. Super happy customer!

Great communication and expert siding placement with exterior painting. Sideco did a fantastic job updating the exterior of our historic home. The project was discussed in detail with us and we had opportunities to ask questions and voice preference throughout. We get daily compliments on the finished job which preserved the original architectural integrity. We would absolutely recommend Sideco!

Sideco replaced 9 windows in the original part of our home that was built in the 1930’s. We wanted them to look as much like the originals as possible and I was very pleased with the end result. Brent and his team did a great job. Brent is a great communicator and a pleasure to work with.

Sideco replaced siding and guttering on our home—large job and high off ground requiring scaffolding—and replaced one deck and erected second, adjoining deck. These decks were also high off the ground. There was good communication with executive and on-site implementation staff. Crew was professional, accessible, and skilled. Teamwork was amazing. They were tidy in daily clean-up. A couple follow-up needs were satisfactorily completed. We are very satisfied with results and highly recommend Sideco to others.

We started out just having all of our windows replaced, which quickly morphed into having to repair rot caused by improper installation of the EIFS (Dryvit) and improper flashing of the shingles and deck. (Your worst nightmare.) Sideco was able to allocate enough manpower to remove the EIFS and replace it with James Hardy board siding and replace the deck in a timely manner. Folks, these are quality craftsman that use only quality products to do the job right. Excellent communication from each of the project managers. Totally professional outfit!! Can’t say enough good things about them.

Highly Recommend!!! If you want quality windows and doors with professional installation then you want Sideco! Replaced our old construction grade vinyl windows for some Marvin Signature Wood windows and added a beautiful front door and the whole house has changed. My wife and I love it and can't say enough positive things from the planning, installation, painting, to the cleanup. No detail was overlooked and it is refreshing to find a company that takes pride in their work. We have no reservations in recommending Sideco for your next job.

Jimmy and Brent from Sideco are amazing. I should have made this review 2 years ago when they replaced our windows in our home. Our home is over 110 years old and had rot that needed addressed before the windows could be installed. Brent who is Jimmy's lead on projects walked us through each area needing addressed so we understood what needed fixed and what he just wanted us to know about but didn't necessarily need additional work. We had such a good experience with them that we hired them again this fall to replace windows in a two story apartment building that we own which is also over 110 years old. Surprisingly with the age, there was only one area that had been a problem. However, Brent let us know about it and talked through it with Jimmy and although there was damage due to previous leaks, they explained that we didn't need to do any additional work because the windows would fix the issue going forward. When you hire contractors, there is always something that comes up that you wish had been different but this isn't the case with our experience with Jimmy and Brent. The windows are of incredible quality, Jimmy who owns the company shows up to check on the status of the installation while it's going on and Brent, his main lead, is really good at communicating about things while the project is going on. We plan on using them again next year on another apartment building. So, for those of you looking to replace your windows, I would HIGHLY recommend Sideco. If you want to get a second option, go ahead and call Anderson Windows and they will want to make you sit down for over an hour with one of their SALESPEOPLE to hear all about the history of the company and then when you get your estimate it will be twice the price because they have so many layers of employees due to sales people and back staff. I don't need to hear about Anderson's history and I don't want to talk to a sales person. I want to deal with a company with quality windows and an owner that is involved directly with his customers. We LOVED the fact that Jimmy, who owns Sideco, is totally in tune with his customers and has direct communication with them. He has a showroom where you can go and look at all the different types of options and he will help you figure out how to choose the best type of window for your needs. He is totally accessible via his cell phone as is Brent. There was never a time that we couldn't reach them if questions came up. We would not use anyone else for window installations!

We are now able to go back and look at what we recently have done in remodeling our home, we are completely blown away by the results. When I look at the most minute detail and the quality of the material used we have no hesitation in recommending Sideco to anyone thinking about using this company. Their employees showed up to work with a full crew complement, always on time, and focused on the work at hand.

We hired Sideco to remove our existing siding and replace with hardie board, paint, add on a front portico and install new exterior doors. Jimmy and his entire team were amazing to work with! Everyone on the crew is very skilled in their craft, with great attention to detail. Sideco has a specialist on staff to address and improve every area of your home. We were especially impressed with their timeliness and how efficiently they work as a team! During the process, many of our neighbors complimented how quickly they worked and how clean they kept the work space, packing up and cleaning up each day. Everyone on staff is so nice and gracious to work with, making sure the homeowner is happy and updated on progress and plans each day. Sideco excels in customer service! We’re extremely happy with the value and exceptional beauty Sideco has added to our home. I absolutely recommend hiring Jimmy and his talented team!
