Ferris Home Improvements

What Ferris Home Improvements does

Ferris Home Improvements is a privately held, family-owned home improvement contractor founded in 2004 and headquartered in Newark, Delaware. The company operates as a one-stop shop for residential and small commercial property improvements, offering roofing (including commercial, replacement, repair, and specialty systems), exterior services (siding, windows, doors, gutters with Alu-Rex and Gutter Clean Pro protection systems), outdoor living structures (custom decks, screened rooms, Shoreline vinyl and Struxture pergolas), and interior renovations (kitchen and bathroom remodeling). Services are delivered by manufacturer-certified installers holding credentials from Owens Corning, CertainTeed, James Hardie, ProVia, Mastic/PlyGem, Tamko, and NKBA across a team of 40+ members with a combined 40+ years of industry experience.

The company runs a direct-to-consumer, sales-led go-to-market model. Two physical showroom locations in Newark and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware serve as customer engagement hubs, supported by in-home consultations from Exterior Sales Consultants and Kitchen & Bath Design Consultants. Revenue is generated entirely through project-based, one-time fees with quote-based pricing; current promotions include 100 feet of free 5-inch gutters with a new roof purchase and 20% off repairs over $250. Free estimates are provided across the service mix. The geographic footprint covers Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, with no third-party subcontracting — the company controls the entire process from initial meeting through final inspection.

Distribution is regional and direct: company-owned showrooms, a field sales team, and a website with online estimate-request forms. Marketing combines content marketing (educational blog), community sponsorships (local sports teams, food drives, services for elderly residents), referral incentives (Refer-a-Friend Program), and event participation (Home Owners Expo, Customer Appreciation Day). The business holds BBB A+ accreditation, Top Workplaces 2022, First State Favorites 2022, Community's Choice Awards 2023, and "Fastest 50" recognition. Ferris Home Improvements does not disclose revenue, has no external funding, and operates as an independent family business with no parent company, subsidiaries, or franchise affiliations.
