Ferris Home Improvements
Ferris Home Improvements
Ferris Home Improvements was founded by Delaware native, Walter “Reds” Ferris. Reds began the company with only one full-time crew member – himself, but has since grown FHI rapidly, employing a full-time crew that runs several trucks throughout the day. Our team has over 40 years of experience, specializing in both commercial and residential indoor and outdoor improvements. On average, FHI completes hundreds of jobs each year, but owner Walter Ferris still oversees the operations and runs estimates. In addition, he has surrounded himself with a crew of highly skilled family and craftsmen that he has hand-picked over the years.
Our crew’s superior craftsmanship rivals the largest competitors around. Ferris Home Improvements has been certified for installation of a variety of products by the actual manufacturers themselves because we do exceptional work. With over 40 years of combined construction experience, our crew completes all jobs correctly THE FIRST TIME. Not only can you count on your products being installed to perform according to the manufacturer’s warranty, but you can also count on a clean and professional crew throughout your job.
Fully licensed, bonded and insured, Ferris Home Improvements is a Member of the Better Business Bureau in good standing. It is stressful hiring a contractor because the construction industry in general does not have the best reputation for customer care, however Ferris Home Improvements is a completely different kind of contractor because it is literally run by your neighbor. Owner and operator Walter “Reds” Ferris and his wife are active residents of New Castle County that can be spotted at the ball field, grocery store, and their local church during the week. Our tagline is “quality craftsmanship from a neighbor you can trust” because that is what we can offer customers that our competitors cannot. While FHI is on the job, you can trust that you are in good hands. Don’t take our word for it—read more about our A+ BBB Rating and our 2012 BBB Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics, read what our many satisfied customers have to say on our References page, OR you can always take it up with us at the ball field, grocery store, church.
Ferris Home Improvements is more affordable than the competition because we are not part of a giant, franchised corporation. With less overhead and a mid‐size crew of dedicated experts in the field, we are a much more efficient company who can offer you better labor pricing for the same top quality craftsmanship you get from the highest bidding competitors. Another reason why Ferris Home Improvements can offer you such great deals is because we have established great relationships with vendors who make the products to skip the middle man and offer you better‐than‐retail pricing.
Not only is our company color green, but so is our mindset. WE RECYCLE ALL SHINGLE WASTE, saving thousands of tons of non-biodegradable waste & turning it back into the asphalt used to make pavement and more. We continually strive to adopt means of operating in environmentally‐friendly ways (e.g., electronic estimate process) as well as offer our customers energy-efficient products & home improvements (click here for ENERGY STAR products). By doing so, we work to streamline costs & pass the savings on to our customers, who already save with GREEN home improvements!
