Eicher's Pro Vinyl has been helping homeowners across Bryan County protect and improve their homes since 1998, and Pembroke is a community we know well. With a hardiness zone of 9a, Very Heavy termite pressure, and summer highs averaging 89.4°F, the exterior of a home here takes a beating that demands quality materials and experienced hands. We are family-owned, we use our own employees on every job, and we back our work with a 5-year workmanship warranty.
What Bryan County's Climate Does to Your Home
Pembroke sits in USDA Hardiness Zone 9a, where winter lows can dip to 20-25°F and summer high temperatures average 89.4°F. That 60-plus degree swing between seasons puts real stress on siding, windows, roofing, and trim. Add in 40.4 inches of annual rainfall, five or more heavy rain days per year, and moderate hurricane exposure from the Georgia coast roughly 67 miles away, and you have conditions that reward durable, low-maintenance exteriors.
The numbers that concern us most for Bryan County homeowners, though, are these:
- Very Heavy termite risk. This is the highest classification used in Georgia. Wood-hungry subterranean termites are active year-round in Zone 9a soils. Untreated wood trim, fascia, soffits, and decking are vulnerable. Vinyl and metal alternatives eliminate that exposure entirely.
- 2,568 cooling degree days per year. That is a significant air-conditioning load. Single-pane or aged double-pane windows leak conditioned air and drive up utility bills every summer. Replacing them with insulated vinyl windows is one of the fastest ways to reduce that cost.
- 166 mosquito-active days per year. That is more than five months when outdoor living is uncomfortable without a proper screen room or enclosed porch to retreat to.
We have been installing products designed specifically for this climate since 1998. We know what holds up and what does not.
Pembroke's Housing Stock and Why Upgrades Make Sense Now
The median year built for homes in this area is around 2000, which means a large share of Pembroke’s roughly 16,137 housing units are now 25 years old or older. That is exactly the age when original windows start to fog and seal-fail, when vinyl siding begins to chalk and warp, when gutters pull away from fascia boards, and when roofing systems approach the end of their rated lifespan.
With a median home value of $243,800 and a homeownership rate of 72.8 percent, most residents here have a real financial stake in keeping their property protected and well-maintained. Deferred maintenance in a high-humidity, high-termite environment does not stand still. A failed gutter allows water to pool against a foundation. A cracked window seal lets humid air into the wall cavity. Small problems in this climate become expensive problems faster than they would in a drier region.
The good news: upgrading now, while issues are still manageable, almost always costs less than repairing damage down the road. And with 100% financing available (5, 7, or 10-year terms, plus a 1-year same-as-cash option with no money down), there is no reason to wait on a project that is already overdue.

Our Work, Our Employees, Our Warranty
One thing we hear from homeowners who have had bad experiences with other contractors is that they never met the person who actually did the work. That does not happen with us. Every installation Eicher’s Pro Vinyl performs is completed by our own trained employees, not subcontractors. We are licensed and insured in Georgia, and we have been operating the same way since 1998.
That consistency matters in a market like Bryan County, where homes are spread across rural roads, subdivisions near Pembroke, and communities as far out as Daisy and Hagan. We are not a Savannah company dabbling in the outlying areas. We are a southeast Georgia company, and this region is where we work every day.
Our 5-year workmanship warranty covers the installation itself, and manufacturer warranties cover the materials. If something is not right, you have a real warranty from a company that has been at the same address for more than two decades. We are not going anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Eicher's Pro Vinyl serve the rural parts of Bryan County outside Pembroke itself?
Yes. We work throughout Bryan County, including communities along the county roads outside Pembroke and nearby towns such as Guyton, Bloomingdale, and Flemington. Our service area covers a broad stretch of southeast and coastal Georgia. If you are unsure whether your address qualifies, call us at (912) 588-0061 and we will confirm before scheduling your free estimate.
With Bryan County's Very Heavy termite rating, should I avoid wood entirely on my deck or porch?
It is a fair concern. We do install wooden decks and porches in this area using pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact, which provides meaningful protection. That said, we always walk homeowners through the maintenance commitment that comes with wood in a Zone 9a, high-termite environment. If low maintenance is the priority, we can discuss composite or vinyl alternatives. We give you the full picture and let you decide.
How much does moderate hurricane exposure affect which roofing product I should choose for Pembroke?
Pembroke is roughly 67 miles from the coast, which puts it in a moderate hurricane exposure zone. That is not the same as a beachfront property, but tropical systems can still deliver 44-plus mph wind gusts to Bryan County. Standing-seam and concealed-fastener metal roofing systems perform well in these conditions because the panels interlock rather than relying on exposed fasteners that can back out under wind load. We discuss wind ratings with every roofing customer.
Do you offer financing for home improvement projects in Pembroke?
Yes. We offer 100% financing with no money down. Terms are available at 5, 7, or 10 years, and we also offer a 1-year same-as-cash option. Financing is available for the full range of services we offer in Bryan County, from a single window replacement to a complete roofing and siding project. Ask about it when you call to schedule your free in-home estimate.
