"I started Lakeside after years at large nationwide contractors because I wanted to do this the right way — where the homeowner actually knows what's happening, the crew shows up when they say they will, and nobody cuts corners because they're rushing to the next job. That's still how we operate on every single project."

I worked with Freddy at Lakeside to get custom windows ordered and installed in a house I was selling. When the contractor I was working with stalled out, Lakeside made it happen. They were speedy, professional, and did a great job. Excellent problem solvers. I will definitely work with them in the future!
