Hansons is one of the most recognized home improvement contractors in the Great Lakes region, with over 25 years serving Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana homeowners. The company handles windows, siding, roofing, and gutters — often all in the same project — using fully in-house installation crews rather than subcontractors.

On the figures below: these are typical ranges for this kind of work, not quotes from Hansons. We do not hold published pricing for most companies — where we do, it is shown as theirs and labelled. Your quote depends on your home, your scope and your market: see how we build these ranges.
Windows typical range for this work: $350–$900/window installed: Hansons offers vinyl double- and triple-pane windows from multiple manufacturers. Mid-tier vinyl is the sweet spot — good thermal performance at competitive pricing vs. Renewal by Andersen or Home Genius. Energy Star certified options available.
Roofing typical range for this work: $9,000–$20,000 for average home: Architectural shingles are Hansons’ roofing standard. They offer impact-resistant Class 4 options for Michigan markets prone to hail. Full tear-off and disposal included.
Siding typical range for this work: $12,000–$28,000 for average home: Vinyl and fiber cement (James Hardie and LP SmartSide). Hansons is one of the few regional contractors certified on all three major fiber cement brands.
Doors typical range for this work: $1,200–$4,000 installed: Hansons installs entry and patio doors under the same four-tier Smart Choice warranty system used across its other trades — only the top Smart Choice tier carries the full Lifetime Guarantee, so confirm which tier your quote includes. Reviews describing patio door installs are largely positive on crew professionalism, though a smaller number mention doors arriving shorter than the ordered size.
Sales process: In-home consultation with measurement and same-day pricing. Hansons reps are trained but not high-pressure — the company’s repeat/referral business model depends on customer satisfaction, not one-time closes.
Installation: All installation crews are Hansons employees. Project managers coordinate multi-trade jobs. Window installs typically take 1–2 days. Roofing takes 1–3 days depending on home size.
Warranty: Hansons uses a four-tier Smart Choice warranty system (Classic, Deluxe, Premium, and Smart Choice) — only the top Smart Choice tier carries the full Lifetime Guarantee on windows and siding installation; lower tiers carry shorter, limited terms. Roofing follows the shingle manufacturer’s own warranty, which differs by product line plus Hansons’ own labor warranty. Ask which tier your quote includes and confirm specifics in writing.
Best fit: Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana homeowners planning exterior upgrades — especially multi-trade projects (windows + siding, or roofing + gutters). In-house crews reduce the coordination risk that comes with using separate contractors for each trade.
Consider alternatives if: You are outside the Great Lakes region (Hansons doesn’t serve your area), or if you need a single trade at the absolute lowest price point (specialty shops may beat Hansons on individual-trade pricing).
These are the questions homeowners ask most often before starting this project - what it costs, how long it takes, what a fair quote looks like and which details change the price. Each answer below is written to stand on its own, so you can read just the one you need.
