The housing we work on
Replacement windows
All Three Trades
Windows, Doors and Siding From One Company
Most homes need more than one thing done to the outside. When all of it goes through one local company, the warranty, the crew, and the phone number stay the same from the first opening to the last panel.
One warranty across all three trades
The same 15-year labor warranty covers the windows, the doors, and the siding, so there is no argument later about which contractor owns the problem.
The same employee crews on every trade
Our own factory-trained people do the work. We do not subcontract one trade out to whoever is free that week.
Pella Platinum Elite Certified
Certified directly by Pella, which is a manufacturer standard our crews have to keep meeting, not a badge bought once.
Three generations since 1979
The family has been doing this since 1979, and a lead installer is on every job.
We do not publish a price for windows, doors, or siding, because an honest one does not exist before someone has stood in your house. Cost tracks the size of the openings, the materials you pick, and what the crew finds once the old units come out. What we promise is the full number in writing at the estimate, before anything is ordered, with no pressure to sign that day.
Flexible financing is available if you want it. You can also walk our 4,000 sq. ft. showroom in Southgate and operate full-size windows and doors yourself before you commit to anything.
The Detail
About Your Melvindale Home
Why Choose Us?
At Adkins & Sons, we prioritize excellence from start to finish. Our trained technicians deliver flawless results, using products sourced from leading manufacturers. With our meticulous attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction, you can trust us to create a beautifully updated home you’ll love for years to come.
Kyle Adkins Jr. is our VP of Sales and covers Melvindale 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.
Whatever the outside of your Melvindale home needs, we handle it with our own employee crews, not subcontractors, and back the work with the same 15-year labor warranty.
When the company that sold you the job is not the company that installed it, a warranty call two years later turns into a search for whoever did the work. We do not work that way in Melvindale. Our own employees do the installation, never subcontractors, and the 15-year labor warranty comes from us, so there is one company to call.

We are a Pella Platinum Elite Certified Contractor, which means our crews are factory-trained and certified directly by Pella. They are our own employees, on our payroll, not a subcontracted crew hired for the week.
Four steps, one point of contact, and a clean home when we leave.
01
Free In-Home Estimate
We come to your Melvindale home, measure, listen, and give you straight numbers. Or stop by the Southgate showroom and see the options first.
02
Precise Ordering
Every opening is measured twice, and every window and door is ordered to the exact size of your opening, so installation day has no surprises.
03
Employee Installation
Our own factory-trained crew does the work, protects your floors and landscaping, and hauls away the old materials.

Walkthrough & Warranty

Warranty
Adkins & Sons Warranty Guaranty
Adkins & Sons
15
Years Warranty
Every installation is backed by our industry-leading 15-year labor warranty, on top of the manufacturer's coverage on the window itself. If the workmanship ever needs attention, one call and we make it right, at no cost to you.
Most window 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.

One Real Place
Visit Our Southgate Showroom
Every window, door, and siding sample on our floor is one we actually install. Open and close the real thing, compare colors in person instead of from a chip, and talk to the family that has run this company since 1979. The phone rings at this address, not at a call center.
Do you handle permits for exterior home improvement projects in Melvindale?
We guide you through the permit process and advise which projects require permits in your area. Window and door replacements often don’t need permits if you’re replacing existing units with the same size. Siding installation typically requires permits. We work with local building departments to ensure your project meets all codes and regulations throughout the installation process.
Will new windows really reduce my energy bills in Melvindale?
Yes. Our team installs windows that pay for themselves while improving comfort. Triple-pane options with proper installation provide the best plan for Michigan’s climate and your budget.
Can you replace windows in winter in Melvindale?
Yes. We install windows and doors year-round in Michigan, including winter months. Modern installation techniques and sealants work effectively in cold weather. Installing during winter means you start saving on heating costs immediately rather than waiting until spring. Some homeowners prefer winter installation to avoid the spring contractor backlog.
Can you match my older Melvindale home's original window style?
Absolutely. Many homes in the village require custom sizing and period-appropriate styling. Our expertise includes custom stain mixing to match existing trim, non-standard sizing for unusual openings, and authentic wood-look options in low-maintenance fiberglass. We have extensive experience with Melvindale’s mid-century housing stock.
How do I know if I really need window replacement?
Look for fog or condensation between panes, difficulty opening or closing windows, drafts around frames, peeling paint or rot on wood frames, or significantly higher energy bills.
What makes Adkins & Sons different from other exterior home services companies in Melvindale?
Our company stands out with lead-installer oversight on every job, 15-year labor warranties, and our showroom where you see actual products. We’ve been family-owned since 1979 with the founder still involved. We’re licensed, BBB A+ accredited, and a Pella Platinum Elite Certified Contractor serving Melvindale Hills MI and surrounding areas.

«Everyone was terrific and the windows are beautiful. So much so that we told friends in Woodhaven that they should call them when they indicated that they were interested in all new windows for their own house. They also went with Adkins and are very happy with the people and the work that was done.»
