What product should I choose for my home?

What product will fit my budget?
We have talented and experienced sales team advisors that will help you to understand and choose the right high quality and warrantied materials for your project within your budget.
How do I create a plan without an architect?
We truly value working with architects, as a picture is worth a thousand words. However, when this option is not available, our advisors are knowledgeable about not only the exterior and interior finished details and varying sill conditions, but also the performance, rating, and warranty coverage of the windows and doors.
Do you install? How may I get help from an installer?
We are a material-only supplier so we do not contractually include installation into our quotes. However, we do work hand-in-hand with licensed installers and professional builders. We collaborate with the building team to make sure all net frame measurements are reviewed. Here are some of the resources we provide to support installation: specification sheets, cut sheets, shop drawing, architectural details, and installation instructions and videos.
My doors and windows are OLD and need to be repaired. Do you do repairs?
We only sell new windows and doors. We offer new construction or new replacement windows, as well as new retrofit windows, where the existing frame stays intact and there is no penetration of the existing waterproofing. Every door and window is made custom. We do not carry an inventory or stock doors and windows.
Do you have a showroom?
Yes, we do! We offer a variety of collections with full-size displays, hand samples, finish samples, glass samples, and corner samples. While we wish we could show every window and door type, finish color, glass type, and hardware type from every manufacturer’s collection we offer, there are a myriad of combinations and product lines that are constantly being improved and discontinued. It is important for us to be able to explain to you these features and which best meet your home’s needs. For certain projects we can do mock up samples when the timeline permits. We advise all potential customers to speak to us early in the process, before your home breaks ground, as lead times are extremely long and constantly changing.
