... z28 may have been my favorite. Also had a blue 75, a pewter 02 Z, a 91 firebird, and a few other firebirds and T/A's peppered in there. As far as windows, great advice from the pros above. Under $1k per unit for the Starmark composite is concerningly low, that window typically sells for 2 and ...

... window like that cost as a distributor/installer? They basically priced it at $975 ea with install, and then gave me a 10% discount for doing 10+ windows. But you both reacted that seemed quite low, so curious where you think that gap would be? Thanks!

Thanks both. I started typing out the age of the house and windows, and realized you were referring to the Camaro :lol: Sadly, it WAS a 92 (indeed an F-body), but I sold her when I moved to New York many years ago - it's just an email/screen name I've ...

Hello! Homeowner in North New Jersey here. We bought our home about 3 years ago, and have needed to replace the 17 windows since, as the house is very drafty - the current windows are no name quick fix to sell basically. I've recieved multiple quotes (and wow what a range). I've ...

... or fiberglass line that you are considering it is a little better, but I'd still opt for the other members of the "big 3" (Marvin or Andersen) which are generally regarded as better quality.

... Elite (formally Imperial LS level). I don't think Thermatru makes windows. Andersen's are fine if you are considering wood interiors, but judging by your list, I'm thinking ...

... in customization. While Soft-Lite is among the top vinyl manufacturers, my personal preference leans toward the Marvin Elevate series compared to Andersen 400's and Pella Impervia. However, it's worth noting that obtaining the Elevate series with a black fiberglass exterior might be a challenge. ...

Soft-Lite can do an all black window. One of the better vinyl manufacturers out there. I prefer a Marvin Elevate to Andersen 400's and Pella Impervia. I don't think that one can get the Elevate with their fiberglass exterior in black though. Sunrise can do a black laminate interior ...

Hello, It's time for our 2004 Hayfield windows to get replaced. I originally asked our builder to quote Andersen 400s and he showed up with his Pella rep and is quoting Impervia's. Should I be stressing that ...

We are in the market for a whole house full of windows and have quotes from Sunrise, Andersen and Pella. Sunrise quoted their top tier line, triple pane for $36,500. Andersen quoted their ...

Looking for some advice about getting replacement windows (17 in total) for a 1980 home in Pittsburgh. I was originally thinking ... window brands that do an interior/exterior black finish apart from Pella and Andersen? Thanks in advance for the help!

... 3 questions: I'm located in Queens and need to replace 6 double hung windows and a patio door. I have what seems like a reasonable quote from Window King for Oknas. (Also went through the whole Renewal by Andersen song and dance, which was a mistake.) Looking to get more quotes for ...

Scope of the job was 18 windows (full house) replacing the original 1980s Andersen windows with the strings. Quotes for the windows came in within a thousand of each other. Similar ...

... that could be questionable would be number 4, as names like Marvin and Andersen are well known and can resonate with homebuyers if you plan to sell ... how sensitive you are to drafts, etc. Marvin doesn't make any bad windows, but the Sunrise will be more air tight and thermally efficent.
