Discussion Board Forum for Vinyl Windows

Thank you sir.
I must print this to show the DIY'ers I run into!!
Excellant post!

The "exterior installers" are actually, in most cases, a dude with some friends, who has a contractors license, minimumal liability insurance, some tools in his pick-up truck and a magnet on the side that has his cool company name, like roger's remodelling, or something, that goes to home ...

I carry around a glass pack with the swiggle seal and the tarry stuff is melted and saging into the line of sight. And this is from Buffalo, NY, not Arizona.

Purportedly, they are rumored to be one of the best you can buy.
I haven't seen them myself yet, but they get good reviews here.

I keep waiting to read the part where he admits that casing covers, insulation around the installed window and lowE are UPGRADES and you have to pay extra for them. Oh wait, he can't admit that.. duh!! btw, as of September, Home depot's shills "close" at an average of 12% nationwide, on a ...

So, what's it like being a shill for home depot?? because, you're not talking to a bunch of naivettes here. Alot of us are in the industry, some of these guyd have been for years and we all know that home depot basicallly sucks, to be blunt about it. Sub contractors, which means installations are no...

Better read that warranty a little closer. Try paying attention to the exclusions. BTW, I have several HD warranty's for American Craftsman, et al windows right here. I use it to compare to other companies all the time. BTW, my company warrants installation. That's what you get when you use company ...

BTW, I've seen some Alside models, not all of them, but I seriously was not impressed. I thought they looked like junk, to be honest.
Sorry....

Well, if I'm the one who's off the mark then it's me who's apologizing, but the point I was making is that damn near every company out there uses some kind of stupid claims or scams to try to get you to buy their products. Schuco dealers, in general, just sem to get the most attention, but then they...

So, just because they aren't in the BBB, you can't buy their windows?? if the price was right, and you liked the windows, then get them. Seriously eberry. I appreciate someone's passion, I get that way too, but you carry the torch for the dumbest things I can imagine. Like the post on caulk. IT'S CA...

Ok, so you buy a window for say 400.00. Install it yourself. HOPE you did it right, void all warranties, and in a year, go buy another one because you may have screwed it up, and it's drafty, or leaking water, or not operating correctly, but now it cost 500.00. Or you get a reputable contractor to d...

But they're not relevant. They'll give you a quote, but whether it's high or not shouldn't be your consideration. Look for quality. The quotes they give you will be whatever they are, but they'll be on a certain grade of window. I'll tell you right now that anything home depot shows you is going to ...

I need to see something that verifiys that a hardened industrial product like vinyl is going to contract and expand more than wood, which is soft. I know my wood windows stick in summer, because they swell, but I've never seen a vinyl, as in not full of reprocessed garbage, but actually vinyl, windo...

2lt means 2 light as in slider maybe?? I'm gonna go ahead and say it... Buying windows from Sears is stupid. They're always overpriced, and high presure and it's just not worth it. BTW, Home depot and Lowes?? C'mon man. All three of those are scraping the bottom of the barrel. That's like shopping a...
