Ecorse is one of the oldest settlements on this stretch of the Detroit River, and the housing shows it. We install vinyl siding over a free inspection and back it with a 15-year labor warranty.
What We Do in Ecorse
Whatever the outside of your Ecorse home needs, we handle it and back the work with the same 15-year labor warranty.
Vinyl, wood, and fiberglass, measured twice and ordered to the exact size of your opening.
Entry, patio, and storm doors, set plumb and weatherstripped so they seal and keep sealing.
Panels that interlock and hang loose enough to move with the weather, in a range of colors and profiles.
Local Knowledge
Ecorse was a river settlement long before it was an industrial one, and its houses were built across both eras.
French settlers called the waterway here Riviere aux Echorses, the river of the barks, for the bark stripped along it to build canoes. The English-speaking settlement that followed was called Grand Port from 1836 before the older name stuck.
Michigan Steel opened its rolling mill here in 1923, supplying sheet steel for the car plants, and the Great Lakes Engineering Works yard built ships on the same riverfront. The housing followed the work, which is why so much of it dates from between the wars.
Ecorse peaked at 17,948 residents in 1950 and counted 9,305 at the 2020 census. Doors from that era are usually solid wood in a frame that has moved with the house, which is why a new slab on its own rarely fixes a door that needs a shoulder.
The Detroit River forms the city's eastern edge and the boundary with Canada. Homes on that side take weather off open water, and an exterior door on a wall like that earns its weatherstripping.
Your Local Rep
Kyle Adkins Jr. is our VP of Sales and covers Ecorse and the rest of our southern service area. Ask for Kyle by name: Kyle comes out for the free in-home estimate, measures the openings, walks you through the material options, and hands you the full price in writing before anything is ordered. If a question comes up mid-job, Kyle is the person to call, and the phone rings in our Southgate office rather than a national call center.
What Sets Us Apart
When the company that sold you the job is not the company that stands behind it, a warranty call two years later turns into a search for whoever did the work. We do not work that way in Ecorse. The 15-year labor warranty comes from us, so there is one company to call.

Our Process
Four steps, one point of contact, and a clean home when we leave.
01
We come to your Ecorse home, measure, listen, and give you straight numbers. Or stop by the Southgate showroom and see the options first.
02
The house is measured in full and the siding, trim, and accessories are ordered to it, so installation day has no surprises.
03
The crew protects your landscaping and everything underfoot, hangs the siding, and hauls away the old materials.
04
We walk the finished job with you and register your 15-year labor warranty before we leave.
Warranty
15
Years Warranty
Every installation is backed by our industry-leading 15-year labor warranty, on top of the manufacturer's coverage on the siding itself. If the workmanship ever needs attention, one call and we make it right, at no cost to you.
180 Month
2
Years Warranty
Most siding companies stand behind their installation for only a year or two. Once that coverage runs out, drafts, leaks, and seal failures become the homeowner's problem to fix.
24 Month
Questions
One. A door that needs a shoulder has swollen, sagged on its hinges, or both, and the same movement that binds it in July opens a gap in January. Stand inside with the lights off; any line of light you can see is a line of cold air, and it tells you the frame has moved rather than the door alone.
Our workmanship: the frame set plumb and square, the sealing, and the finished trim. It sits on top of the manufacturer's own warranty on the product, and we register it with you at the final walkthrough before the crew leaves.
The in-home estimate is free and you get the full price in writing before anything is ordered. There is no pressure to sign that day. You can also see full-size windows and doors first at our 4,000 sq. ft. showroom in Southgate.
