My home is 30 years old and over time all my aluminum clad wood windows would not easily open or close. I did extensive research on companies and wood window products and read numerous reviews. I determined I wanted to place Marvin windows in my home and work with Jimmy Russell, owner of Sideco, who started the company almost 40 years ago.After seeing the windows in the showroom and meeting with Jimmy, I was convinced I had made the right choice of both the company and wood windows for my home.Jimmy and his project manager, Brent Sims, made a home visit to look at my windows, take measurements, and provide a timeline for the installation. They were both very courteous, easy to talk with and took their time with the process.The crew came to do my installation this week. There were numerous things I loved about the group of people who came to replace my windows. First of all they were not subcontractors, many had worked for Jimmy for years. Each person had particular responsibilities and they carried out their work in an efficient and harmonious manner.Secondly, Brent, the project manager, was on site for 95% of the time. He talked through the plan each day with everyone, answered questions, gathered input from me and the team and helped with some of the work as needed. Brent’s style is that of a servant leader. Now I knew part of the reason why this team performed so well and their work was of the highest quality. Brent and his team demonstrated mutual respect for one another.The other reasons for the high performance of this team is that they enjoy and take pride in their work. As a result, attention to detail is exemplary.As I got to know them during the four days at my home I realized another reason for their great teamwork. Many of the team are related or have grown up together.I am extremely happy with my Marvin windows. The quality of these windows are exceptional. They are also quite beautiful. My home is noticeably more quiet since the windows were replaced. The Marvin windows also updated the look of my home. My neighbors are coming over to check them out.I am so pleased with the windows and the entire process, from start to finish, that I am going to replace three doors in my home to add to the energy savings I will receive with 14 new windows.I’d like to thank Jimmy Russell for all he has put into his company and for the way he takes care of his team. I’d also like to thank Brent Sims for being such an amazing servant leader. My thanks also goes out to all the incredible people who worked tirelessly each day to bring such beauty to my home.Thank you, Efra, Adella, Yessi, Patricio, Angel and Jairo!God Bless You All!

I will start at the top with the owner of Sideco, Jimmy Russell.So knowledgeable and just an extremely nice person... Never did we feel pressured. He explained the product that he thought would be the best fit for our log home and he was right...we love everything! He certainly sets an example for those who work at Sideco ..As evidenced in the project manager, Brent Simms ...he was amazing and is the perfect representative for this class act company.. He excels in his craftsmanship, as well as, in his patience with the job and with the customer..No matter what I requested or changed, Brent always said, "We can do that, no problem"...and he did.Efrian and his crew were second to none... Working with precision, and pride.. long days and always with a smile on their faces...I have always dreaded home projects. But these peoplemade it enjoyable, and beautiful...In a world filled with drama.Nothing was ever a big deal and I appreciate that as much as their cradtmanship!..We love all of our windows and doors and would highly recommend this company!Jeannie and Joe Benight

I don't do reviews normally, but felt one was certainly warranted for this company after working with them on a siding project for my home.A wonderful company to work with for any renovations or work you need done. It is very hard to find contractors and companies that will perform the work you ask for, at a price that's affordable, in a timely manner. Sideco checks all of those boxes and then some. Our project was a pretty large one - it spanned about 2 weeks in totality. Every day the team would show up on time which was something I'm not accustomed to! Our project manager, Anthony, checked in daily to give status updates, ask for our opinions on various things, and see if we had any concerns/questions.Our house looks brand new now, and we are very happy with how everything turned out. I can't stress enough that if you're looking for any sort of exterior work to be completed, Sideco should be your first call.Thanks to Jimmy, Anthony, and the entire Sideco team for making this massive project very simple and stress-free for me as the customer. We will certainly give you a call for any work that we need done in the future, and will tell everyone we know as well to give you a call anytime they need anything.Nick and Baylee D.

If you’re looking for a contractor for siding, windows, and home restoration to trust with your property and treat it like their own, Sideco is the absolute best in town! They restored our old home and made it look like new after the Tornado. It’s worth the investment and so impressed by the craftsmanship of all project managers and professionals involved in the job. Their attention to detail is unmatched and worth every penny knowing we have a great quality product protecting our home. When the job begins, they are on it until it is finished - could not recommend Sideco enough! Would use them again on future projects!

We are extremely happy with how our home looks, the quality products used, and the craftsmanship of Sideco. Sideco made the process easy every step of the way. We were impressed with how each crew specialized in their own area, window installation, demo, siding, painting, etc. The crews were so polite, friendly and hard working. We would definitely recommend Sideco to anyone needing to make exterior repairs and wanting to update their home. Thank you Jimmy Russell and your wonderful team at Sideco!!!Services: Window installation, Exterior painting

Back in 2016 Sideco replaced all the siding on our home and now we asked Sideco to help us with a room addition to our home. Sideco helped us in such a timely manner and was so professional throughout the entire process. Jon our lead project manager did an amazing job with the framing and build out of the entire project. Efrian was the other project manager who led the finish out process and made our home a beautiful place we are excited to raise our family in. We are so grateful to have a company like Sideco we can trust with such an important project. The attention to detail for keeping the home historically accurate inside and outside is incredible.

After the wonderful experience we had with Sideco on our windows, we were most excited at the thought of replacing our deck. Despite our best effort to keep the old wooden deck refinished, over the years it had taken a pretty good beating from the elements. Having a maintenance-free deck, using TimberTech, was quite appealing. We had a vision for what we wanted, but never thought our expectations would be so thoroughly exceeded!!From the day Jon and Ethan Ward showed up, until the project was complete, their dedication to doing a quality job was evident in their workmanship. Their attention to detail made it feel as if they were doing these improvements to their own home. They earned our complete trust and we enjoyed their company so much it was bittersweet when the project was over.This must have something to do with the culture and work ethic at Sideco. As different workers came on and off the job, they consistently demonstrated the same dedication and “pride of ownership” in the work they were doing.They extended the roof so we would have a covered area and did such an incredible job tying it in to our current roof, it looks like it has always been there. They replaced all the vinyl siding on the back of the house with James Hardie Fiber Cement Siding. The tongue-in-groove ceiling and infrared heaters really set it apart. It is absolutely gorgeous.During the process, they found some areas where water had seeped behind the vinyl siding on the chimney and caused some serious water damage. Our confidence in them was bolstered even further as they assured us of their experience and showed us how they would fix the damage. They also installed a moisture barrier to prevent this from happening in the future.To top the project off, they added a cooking area which includes a one-piece concrete counter top with a built-in smoker, cedar facing on the cabinets and plenty of access to electricity.Like many people, we’re spending much more time at home these days. Because of Sideco, it’s doesn’t feel like home. Every time we are out enjoying our new outdoor living area, it feels like we’re on vacation!Jim and Patti DrakeService: Remodeling

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!

When we first made the call to Jimmy at Sideco, he came out to our house and took pictures. These very detailed satellite-type images helped us understand the measurements of exactly what we had and what we would need.We then went to their showroom and it was well worth the trip. It was good to see the different options in person and their professionalism and knowledge of construction was very evident.We were very pleased with the Marvin brand, but mostly with the way Sideco puts the whole window together, from the moisture backing, to the insulation, to the trim. No matter which option we wanted, we were convinced that the quality would be consistent.When they came to install, they were equally impressive. The project manager, Brent, was a pleasure to work with, and the crew was conscientious and courteous. They showed up when they said they would, and they kept the house clean during installation. Before they installed each window, they would tent off the area to keep the dust contained. Then they would remove the windows from the outside. If they made a mess, we didn’t see it, because they cleaned up as they went through the process.Based on their recommendation, we decided to go with picture windows in the kitchen and dining room. Once everything was installed we were elated with the choice. They completely rebuilt the wood trim on the inside of the windows and the craftsmanship is excellent. It totally changed the look of our home, and the windows “bring the outside in” beautifully! We would highly recommend Sideco and we will definitely use them again.Patti and Jim DrakeService: Window installation

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.

Highest Quality Windows and Excellent Service.Brent Sims and his crew replaced 11 windows with Marvin Signature windows and we couldn't be happier. They went above and beyond on service, were respectful of the house and yard, and did everything we asked in a very professional manner. Below is are "before and after" pictures of one of our rooms.I highly recommend Sideco for window replacements.Service: Window installation

Sideco replaced siding on our house, reinforced a hanging deck, powder coated iron railings, built deck, painted, and much more. It was a complex project overall because of the geography of the property and house. I would rate the project a 10 out of 10 overall. The project was completed on schedule, and done quickly considering the scope of work. The cost was fair and on budget. Workmanship/carpentry was very good and detailed well. The crew functioned well together and the work proceeded like clockwork. Individual crew members were polite and fun to interact with. Communications with the foreman occurred at least once daily and most often more. The company owner was onsite twice daily. Cleanup was done daily and done well. There were unforeseen complications which were handled expertly. There were few very minor issues. At the beginning of the project, we thought we were probably over promised and were prepared for disappointments. This did not happen. I highly recommend this company based on my experience.Service: General repairs & installation

We were very pleased with the SideCo process from our visit to the showroom to the clean up. We highly recommend SideCo, Marvin Windows and Doors, and Hardie Board. Great local craftsmen who did the installation. Quality install with attention to detail.

I've recommended Sideco to many people over the years. When we wanted new windows for our house, Jimmy made ordering easy. The Sideco showroom has an extensive collection of Marvin windows which was so helpful. We expected a professional installation. Brent and his crew went above and beyond my expectations. They were always on time, communicated the schedule/changes to the schedule and kept the demolition/construction debris to a minimum. Jimmy checked in a few times to see the progress and ask us how the crew was doing. We love our new front door, sliding glass doors and windows. We highly recommend Sideco!Services: General window replacement, Window installation, Paint indoors, Exterior painting, Remodeling, Drywall installation

This was my parents' house, so it's incredibly important to me. I took a long time deciding what company would do the kind of quality job I'd hoped for; did a lot of research into companies to do my total exterior refurbishment, replace the sliding door and build me the bay window I've always wanted. I chose Sideco. The right choice, for sure. These guys are TERRIFIC! They know their craft. They communicate. They care about the job they do--I know everybody claims that, but these folks do. It was a long trip for them, but they coordinated beautifully. I look forward to working with them to replace the rest of my windows. I'll recommend them without reservation.

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!Services: Exterior painting, Remodeling

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!

Just not enough positive words to say about this company. Jimmy, Anthony and all of the crew were more than professional and friendly. Having such a big project is more than unsettling but this team put my mind to ease. It is a pleasure to see craftsmanship and pride in work like this. I go outside often now just to admire the home. I would recommend Sideco without reservations.

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.Services: Deck installation, Composite decks, Deck replacement, Exterior painting, Deck repair

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.Service: Window installation

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!Services: Exterior painting, Remodeling, Drywall installation

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.Services: Window installation, General repairs & installation

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 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!!!!

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.

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 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.

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! :)
