no it does not make sense. double hungs everywhere and grids will cost about $15-$25 a window more. if you are going to replace your windows at least replace them with something that is going to be easier to clean. i really don't know why anyone sells a single hung? is there a big market for these t...

wow, your enthusiasm for selling home depot windows is noted already. some statements you claim are valid points, however they take on no meaning with the sales plug and marketing you are using this site for. it is unfortunate. luckily folks that are using this board are knowledgable and will see ri...

the crack between the window and the old frame can not tell the difference between r-11 and r-13,19,30 or whatever. fiberglass insulation.....oh forget it i give up. if you think it makes a difference okay then.

large airspaces? if you have larger than 1/4" around all sides of that window, you have a window that is mismeasured. now someone is fitting your house to the windows rather then fitting windows to your house. make sure you get the caulking contractors to put that in writing for you.

sears will usually be the most costly estimate you will receive.simonton by no means is an $800 window as a matter of fact no window is worth $800[dh or 2lt]. keep up your search. when you feel comfortable with the product, the price,the salesperson you will buy. just like anything else you buy reta...

ummm yeah okay, so what is your point? so have 10 more companies come into your house until you can make an educated guess to what their window is worth. what are you looking for price or quality? why does anyone care what your sears price was? no one can tell you if it is a fair price or not. we ha...

most major companies have a pricing sheet to follow and it does not allow for different times of the year. that being said if you are talking savings of a couple hundred bucks it is worth a shot. if you think windows are going to be half price you are dealing with a company that will not be in busin...
