    I cannot say enough good things about the service Owen Enterprises provides. Scott is exceptional in wanting and in providing excellent work at a reasonable … More cost. His crew workers also exemplify that attitude. Kurt made sure that my windows were put In in the right way, and when there were challenges found solutions. Once the windows were in, you could not tell that I had just had new windows put in. Seamless. At the moment, I cannot remember the name of the gentleman who was working with him. He also did exceptional work. All three gentlemen treated me with respect and answered my questions with patience. They also cleaned up each day they worked, as well as at the end of the project.This is the second major project I have had done by Owen Enterprises. We first met Scott when we had our roof replaced. His excellent work back then made me a repeat customer.You won’t go wrong with Owen Enterprises, Inc.

    Owen Enterprises installed a new roof, siding, soffit, fascia, gutters, gutter guards, entry doors, storm doors and garage windows on our home. Excellent … More workmanship. Great job all around.
  • Avatar Robert J Swanson ★★★★★ 7 years ago
    Owen Enterprises does excellent work. They resided our home and installed some brand name leaf guard system in the gutters. If you know a little about … More construction you will appreciate the craftsmanship that is put into their work. Vinyl siding seams are nicely hid, so when you are standing curb side you can't see the seams. Starting tracks are properly attached to wall sheeting, as well as chalking the appropriate seams. Very well done. Oh yeah the clean up is superb. I have only picked up 5 to 6 nails. To compare to when we had our roof replaced, I picked up at least three dozen nails. I would recommend Owen Enterprises.
