Xtreme Exteriors has once again been recognized as one of the nation’s leading remodeling companies, earning the #226 spot on Qualified Remodeler’s 2026 Top 500 list.
This marks the third consecutive year Xtreme Exteriors has appeared on the list, continuing to climb higher each year.
Since 2024, Xtreme Exteriors has moved up 173 positions nationally, including an 81 spot jump from 2025 to 2026. For a locally owned company like ours, this continued climb is such an exciting milestone. But what makes this recognition especially meaningful is how the Qualified Remodeler Top 500 is determined.
Unlike awards based primarily on public voting, the Top 500 evaluates remodeling companies using measurable business performance, experience, industry credentials, awards, and community involvement.
What Is the Qualified Remodeler Top 500?
The Qualified Remodeler Top 500 is an annual ranking of some of the largest and fastest growing remodeling and home improvement companies in the United States. Qualified Remodeler has published the list since 1978, evaluating companies across the remodeling industry using a combination of business performance and industry criteria.
In 2026, the companies included in the Top 500 represented nearly $25 billion in remodeling sales and 2.2 million completed jobs. For homeowners, the list provides another way to look at the experience, growth, and industry standing of a potential remodeling contractor.
How Is the Qualified Remodeler Top 500 Ranking Determined?
Qualified Remodeler’s editorial staff considers several factors when selecting companies for the Top 500.
Those criteria include:
Installed Remodeling Dollar Volume
Qualified Remodeler looks at the amount of remodeling work a company completes in a year, including the revenue generated from those completed projects.
That gives the ranking a measurable way to compare companies based on real project volume, rather than relying only on reputation or public voting. It also helps show the scale of work a remodeling company is handling year after year.
Total Years in Business
The ranking also considers how long a company has been in business. Experience matters in remodeling, especially when homeowners are making a major investment in their property. A company with years of experience has had time to build its processes, strengthen its team, and establish a track record in the communities it serves.
Industry Association Membership
Qualified Remodeler also looks at whether a company is involved in recognized trade and professional organizations. Staying involved with the industry helps the company to keep up with new products, changing installation methods, and updated standards within the industry.
Industry Awards & Certifications
A company’s industry awards and certifications are also considered for Qualified Remodeler’s list. Certifications help show that a remodeling company is meeting industry standards and continuing to build its knowledge and expertise. Awards add another layer by recognizing the company’s work, reputation, and accomplishments.
Community Service
Community involvement is also included among the criteria. That is especially meaningful for a locally rooted remodeling company. Xtreme Exteriors serves homeowners throughout Missouri, Kansas, and Arkansas, and being involved in the communities where our customers and employees live has always been an important part of our company.
Why Is the Qualified Remodeler Top 500 Different From A Locally Voted Award?
Local awards and national industry rankings recognize different things. When homeowners vote for Xtreme Exteriors in a local contest, that recognition reflects customer experiences, reputation, and support within the community. We are incredibly grateful for those awards because they come directly from the people and communities we serve.
The Qualified Remodeler Top 500 adds another layer. The ranking takes measurable factors such as remodeling revenue, years in business, certifications, industry involvement, awards, and community service into consideration.
Qualified Remodeler has also shared that Top 500 companies often share characteristics such as strong revenues, a commitment to customer service, effective sales practices, and strong customer loyalty. That makes earning a place on the list especially meaningful. Continuing to move higher each year makes it even more significant.
Xtreme Exteriors Moves From #399 to #226
Xtreme Exteriors ranked #399 on the Qualified Remodeler Top 500 in 2024.
In 2025, the company climbed to #307.
For 2026, Xtreme Exteriors reached #226.
That represents a 173 spot improvement in two years.
The continued movement up the list shows the growth of Xtreme Exteriors, the work of our team, and the trust homeowners continue to place in us across the regions we serve. Xtreme Exteriors provides exterior remodeling services from locations in Nixa, Missouri; Pittsburg, Kansas; and Springdale, Arkansas, serving homeowners throughout Southwest Missouri, Southeast Kansas, and Northwest Arkansas.
Our services include roofing, siding, replacement windows, storm damage restoration, and composite decking.
What Does This Recognition Mean for Homeowners?
For homeowners searching for an exterior remodeling contractor, awards and rankings should never be the only deciding factor. But industry recognition can provide additional context when considering a company.
The Qualified Remodeler Top 500 considers factors such as experience, business performance, credentials, recognition, and community involvement. These are often things homeowners look at when choosing a contractor for a major exterior project.
For Xtreme Exteriors, this recognition is a meaningful reminder that the business we have spent the past 25 years building is continuing to move in the right direction. It reflects the strength of the team, the trust of our customers, and the steady growth that has come from doing the work well year after year.
Whether a homeowner needs a roof replacement, new siding, replacement windows, composite decking, or help after storm damage, our goal remains the same: provide clear guidance, quality exterior remodeling work, and an experience that earns the homeowner’s trust.
A National Recognition Built on Local Projects
A national ranking reflects the company Xtreme Exteriors has become, but that growth has been built one project and one customer at a time. Every roof replacement in Nixa, siding project in Pittsburg, and lakeside deck in Springdale contributes to the growth behind Xtreme Exteriors.
The #226 ranking is something our entire team is proud of, but it also represents the customers who have chosen Xtreme Exteriors and recommended our team to others.
Thank You to Our Customers and Communities
Reaching #226 on the 2026 Qualified Remodeler Top 500 wouldn’t be possible without the homeowners who trust Xtreme Exteriors with their homes, the employees who make each project possible, and the communities that continue to support our company.

And after moving from #399 to #307 to #226, we are excited to keep building on that progress.
