American Home Renewal (AHR) is a multi-generational, family-owned company specializing in siding, windows, and doors, with frequent emphasis on James Hardie Hardiplank siding. Customers describe long-standing relationships with the firm (often 10–20+ years) and note high levels of professionalism, thoroughness, and cleanliness from both installers and office staff. The company often works with a project manager to coordinate scope, permits, scheduling, and communications, and some reviews highlight their ability to accommodate changes and keep projects on track.
Practical details cited by customers include: using Hardie planks (including pre-colored options to avoid repainting) on various home exteriors, including multi-story buildings; installing Milgard windows and standard exterior doors; crews that are experienced and efficient, with long-tenured team members; attention to protecting landscaping and keeping job sites clean with nightly cleanups; and handling city inspections and permit processes to meet deadlines.
Pricing and timelines are commonly praised, with several customers noting competitive pricing, detailed quotes, and relatively fast installations compared with other bids. Several adopters report noticeable improvements after replacement—homes look updated or feel warmer and quieter, with energy efficiency and noise reduction highlighted as outcomes.
Overall sentiment is largely positive, with widespread recommendations and praise for responsiveness, quality workmanship, and post-sale support. A small number of reviewers expressed strong dissatisfaction, citing disorganization, untruthful sales practices, rude staff, and unwillingness to fix mistakes; these opinions appear in contrast to the majority of favorable experiences and endorsements. Potential customers may benefit from asking for a project manager, confirming scope (siding, windows, doors), and discussing site protection and permit coordination upfront.
James Hardie fiber cement siding (Hardiplank) is the dominant material mentioned; some older homes referenced wood siding.
