The whole envelope

The house is a system. We’re licensed for all of it.

Roof, siding, windows, doors, sunroom — five layers, one weather. Most outfits do one layer. We’re a general contractor for the whole envelope, so the seams between trades are our problem, not yours.

Fig. 01 — the envelope, eave-side elevationLayers cycle in order of weather
01

Roofing

Composition roofs under three manufacturer flags — Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, CertainTeed ShingleMaster, IKO Shield Pro Plus.

02

Siding & trim

James Hardie fiber cement, hung by our own crews — everything stays in-house, so there are no blame games where the layers meet.

03

Windows & doors

Triple-pane is our standard, not our upgrade — Ampro-series vinyl windows, manufactured by Ply Gem and Alside.

04

Sunrooms, patio covers & enclosed porches

Custom-manufactured rooms with a lifetime guarantee — the deepest photo album we keep.

The warranty

Every installation carries our unlimited original workmanship warranty — in addition to the manufacturers’ own.

01 · Roofing

Repair first. Replace when we agree it's time.

  • Unlike our competitors, we will always try to repair your existing roof first — then if we agree together that it needs replacing, we will.
  • Certified installers: CertainTeed Master Shingle Applicators, IKO Shield Pro Plus, Owens Corning Preferred Contractor.
  • Owens Corning and CertainTeed back our roofs with a 50-year warranty against material failure; IKO with 20 years.
  • We can take the measurements and the estimate by satellite and laser — no need to wait home for us.
  • Workmanship problem? We put an inspector on it within four days.

02 · Siding

James Hardie fiber cement, installed by our own crews.

  • James Hardie fiber-cement siding is the product we stand behind — with 30+ years in the siding business we've watched a lot of products come and go.
  • Every member of our team has a minimum of 20 years of building and design experience.

03 · Windows & doors

Triple-pane is our standard, not our upgrade.

  • At Ampro, triple-pane windows are our standard.
  • Our Ampro-series vinyl windows are manufactured by Ply Gem and Alside, in every style: double hung, sliding, picture, casement and awning.
  • Lifetime warranty against glass failure or breakage — we repair or replace at no cost, and it transfers to the next owner if you sell.
  • Series for every budget: Mezzo Premium and Elite Premium (50-year transferable warranty including the glass), Pro Series, and Builders Series.

04 · Sunrooms & patio covers

Custom-manufactured rooms, lifetime guarantee.

  • Every sunroom is custom manufactured — 3-inch insulated walls with vinyl skins and high-performance LoE3 glass that blocks 95% of damaging UV while letting 80% of visible light through.
  • We back our labor and materials with a lifetime guarantee — including vinyl components and glass breakage — and it transfers to the next owner.
  • Most installations are substantially completed within two weeks after delivery of materials.
  • Enclosed porches, screen rooms and patio covers too — built to your specifications.

Our own trained craftsmen on your property — no sub-contracting, no day laborers. We even keep the language and the appearance kid-friendly.

Rule Nº 4

No paymentuntil the job is complete and you are completely satisfied.

One re-roof, told by the people who paid for it

How a job actually goes.

No dramatization needed — every quote below is verbatim from our Google reviews, placed at the moment of the job it describes.

The quote

Leo measures it.

I first met Leo, who came in, inspected the project and provided the quote.— Naveen, Google review

The paperwork

Permits, handled.

Leo also obtained permits for the work, from the City and my HoA.— Naveen, Google review

Day one

The crew lands.

The crew arrived prompt on time, they were super fast, highly professional.— Naveen, Google review

Day two

Roof, done.

These guys came in and out like a storm, knocking out our roof in two days.— Anthony Budinich, Google review

Swept clean

The estimate & the paperwork

Leo

The name that turns up in our Google reviews more than any other: Leo runs your estimate, explains the scope in plain words, and handles the permits — city and HoA both. We can even take the measurements by satellite and laser.

The office on Fawcett Ave

Rob

Rob Chatham runs Ampro — he’s been the principal on our WA L&I license since 2009. Walk into 2348 Fawcett Ave and talk to him.

On your property

The crew

Our own trained craftsmen — no day laborers, no subs. Every member has at least 20 years of building and design experience.

Money, handled straight

Four ways to pay for it — none of them a surprise.

Financing is part of how we quote a job, not an afterthought. Ask when you call, and we’ll walk you through which one fits — no pressure either way.

Program 01

Signature home-improvement loan

Signature-based — not a lien on your home. No fees, no appraisal, approvals in about ten minutes.

Program 02

Smart Money: 12 months same as cash

Start the project now, pay over the first year at no cost (on approved credit).

Program 03

203(k) FHA refinance

Fold the project into your refinance — up to $35,000 added to the new loan, closed before the work even starts.

Program 04

Construction loan & home-improvement second

A two-phase construction loan that converts to a fixed rate at completion, or a low-fee second if you already have a great first mortgage.

And always

We will never ask for payment until the job is complete and you are completely satisfied.

Leo was very knowledgeable and made sure that all the work was completed as promised.

Kyle A. · Normandy Park, WA — from our testimonials

The sky-lights leaked due in large part to the shallow angle of our 50's style roof. Ampro went the extra mile to solve our problem. We will gladly use and recommend their services in the future.

Jim W. · Tacoma, WA — from our testimonials

I received fantastic service and the company has the intangibles I look for in a contractor: Honesty and Integrity.
