“What One Secret Will Almost Always Guarantee You’ll Never Make A Bad Home Improvement Decision Again?”

By Don Drake, owner of Drake Siding & Sunrooms, one of the oldest family-owned home improvement businesses in Illinois

 

Fact: Everyday many homeowners make bad decisions with their most important investment—their home ...

Everybody knows homeowners who have had their money stolen by fraudulent fly-by-night contracting companies or end up with shoddy workmanship. But did you know that even with well-established bona fide companies, homeowners often end up dissatisfied, stuck with products that don’t fulfill their needs, wants, and desires?

Why do homeowners often make such bad decisions? How can you avoid falling into the same trap?

Most often it’s not a lack of information… Instead, it’s a lack of accurate information.

As you read every word of this article, you’ll learn how easy it is to get accurate information for free.

Let me ask you ...

What home improvement project are you thinking about
and how do you go about gathering information?

Most people rely on information from many sources…their brother-in-law who’s put his own siding on, the next-door neighbor, advertisements from different companies on TV, radio, and newspaper. Pushy salesmen are another source people often listen to.

Unfortunately, even if the information is truthful, it may not show the whole picture of whether the product will really meet your needs, wants, and expectations in the long run.

A product that may work for your neighbor may not be best for you … Your home, your budget, and your situation are all unique—one of a kind.

I don’t need to tell you the best source for good information is a trusted friend, a mentor, someone who’s been there many times before and knows all the available options and products. He’ll value his relationship with you…

He’ll want what’s best for you and help you make a decision you’ll be happy with for years to come.

Where do you find such a friend?

My grandfather Don F. Drake and father Larry Drake started Security Siding in 1956…Over 53 years later, we’re still serving the community...

During all those years, we’ve kept the mindset that we must consider our clients to be like “friends and family.” Taking care of them and looking out for their best interests is the best way to do business.

I discovered long ago that by looking out only for myself, no one’s needs are met, not even my own. What a revelation it was to me when I learned that by being truly interested in helping others first, everyone’s needs are actually met.

By making sure our clients’ needs are met, we make sure that we remain in business, thereby, meeting our needs.

As proof that this philosophy works, consider the fact that much of our business comes from (1) doing new work for our past clients and (2) from them telling their friends about our good work.

When you’re getting an estimate from any home improvement contractor, ask yourself these questions:

  • Is the contractor thinking about what’s best for you, or is he thinking about what’s best for himself and his company?
  • Is he recommending the product to you only because it has the highest profit margin, which will put the most money in his pocket?
  • Is he recommending it to you only because it’s easiest for the company to install, thus increasing profits?
  • Or is he recommending it to you because he understands your problems and sincerely feels this product will solve your situation in the best possible manner while fitting your budget?

Our lifetime of experience and expertise benefits you directly…

Before becoming owner of the company, I worked with my father Larry for many years accumulating a lifetime of experience with different remodeling materials, methods, and coming across nearly every conceivable situation and problem that a homeowner might face.

This gives me the knowledge to be able to provide you with trust-worthy advice on practically any problem or project you might have. I'm only a phone call away. If you need it, I’ll even make house calls to answer your questions, and…unlike doctors and lawyers, I don’t charge for my time and advice during consultations.

Regardless what your particular project might be, call me today and I’ll be glad to answer any home improvement question for free.

You can reach me personally with any questions or problems you may have at 217-345-6257 or 1-800-443-3367.

Here’s to your successful project,
