Meet the Team

Andrew J. Sallee
President

Andy knows the Home Improvement Business from the ground up, having worked on every phase of home improvements that you can imagine. Since graduating from High School at the age of 17, he has worked 14 years in every phase of the Home Improvement Industry.

Andy created Tri-State Siding and Windows in the spring of 2000 with the goal of providing the people of the Quad Cities and surrounding area with a company that actually cares about them and about their homes. Along with maintaining satisfied customers, Andy has always worked to make Tri-State Windows Siding and Roofing the largest and best respected Home Improvement company in the Quad Cities. To do this, he keeps current on upcoming products and innovations. He negotiates with contractors, suppliers and vendors to maintain strict quality controls and obtain the very best pricing. Andy has overseen thousands of remodeling jobs and has personally sold over $8 million dollars worth of successful home improvement projects. His experience gives him a great understanding of both production and installation requirements, as well as insight into the energy conservation needed in today's environment. Andy's expertise and enthusiasm for the Home Improvement business help him to keep his employees driven, focused and satisfied, so that they can pass this satisfaction on to the customer. If you need replacement windows, siding or roofing, Andrew and his team work together to make every home improvement project a success. "We actually care." is Andy's personal commitment.

Andy grew up in Colona, Illinois. He enjoys traveling and playing golf, but also loves to do more adventurous activities, such as scuba diving, flying and sky diving. Andrew also has a softer side, participating in a non-denominational church and being a member of Big Brothers/ Big Sisters.

Terry Campbell
Salesman

Terry's 17 years in the Home Improvement business and his personal investment in the company translate into an expert personal touch and caring attitude for the homeowner's he looks after. He cares enough to give all of his customers his personal phone number so that they can contact him any time.

Terry's biggist concern is to meet the needs of his customers. He makes sure to provide what his clients want and need; what looks good and is the best product for their home at the best value and cost. Terry's goal is to be the best he can be. Therefore, he ensures that every step, from the first visit to the last is done right, whether a client buys from Tri-State or not. Terry does not just show his customers home improvement products, but actually shows them how money can be saved in the long term. He knows that the home is the biggest investment, after children, so home improvements need to be done right the first time. "We are a cut above because we treat each house and customer like it was our own house and family."

Terry is from Ottumwa, Iowa. Terry has more than just a professional interest in Tri-State Siding and Windows. One of his sons owns Tri-State and another is a Tri-State salesman.
