Windows By Installer

I love old houses and I was worried that using vinyl wood grain windows in a home with great oak woodwork would look cheap, but I could not afford wood windows for house. I contacted the owner Alex in July 2013 to get an estimate and look at samples, with the expectation that our current renters would be gone by mid-August(they did not actually move until Sept 15). My deadline for installation was late August. Alex met me at the house in July to get measurements. I was impressed with the appearance of the wood grain samples and we were able to match the woodwork well. Bath and kitchen windows were painted white, so two white windows were ordered. Alex had to return to the house at a later date to get access to some of the upstairs windows for measurement, and he arranged that with the renter., which caused a delay for the final order. The windows arrived August 13 and we arranged for installation the following week, August 19-20. I could not be there that morning, so I gave Alex a key. By the time I arrived at the house August 19 at 3 pm, the installers had completed all the interior work and were loading the last of the debris in the truck. They had not installed the kitchen window, however--Craig, the installer, had noted that the kitchen was white and the window he had for it was woodgrain. "I knew you would not want that" he said. He arranged for the correct white window to be rush ordered. Craig returned August 28th and installed the kitchen window. I am very pleased with the final appearance of all windows. The quality and fit is very good, caulking was thorough. Noise reduction from traffic is significant. I was really amazed with the efficiency of the installation.
