Summary

1st Choice Home Improvements is a Pensacola general contractor focused on windows, hurricane-impact glass, siding, and bathroom remodels — not a walk-in tub specialist.

Reviews are mixed: many praise courteous, tidy install crews and helpful staff (including a bathroom remodel and shower enlargement), but serious complaints recur about no-show quotes, botched installs requiring multiple redo visits, very high estimates, and one reviewer alleging a salesman misled a disabled, fixed-income customer about Florida impact-window requirements to push financing.
