TIPS FOR CHOOSING A
WINDOWS REPLACEMENT COMPANY

There are a lot of companies out there to choose from. Most of them will do a good job for you. If you want to make sure that you're choosing a good company, then ask the following questions:

• Do you use nailing fins? Nailing fins are the best way to get a good solid seal to insure that you have protection from the weather.
  
  
• Are the salespeople pushy? You do not have to deal with high pressure salespeople. One customer told us that they had to sign a contract in order to get the sales person to leave. They then canceled their contract and contacted us.
  
  
• Are they a member of the Better Business Bureau?
  
  
• Are their installers AAMA certified? (AAMA stands for American Architectural Manufacturers Association).
  
  
• Are they in good standing with the Contractors Construction Board (CCB)? Is their CCB number prominently displayed on their trucks?
  
  
• Are they licensed? Bonded? Insured?
  
  
• How long have their senior installers been in the field? Some companies will tell you that they have 25 years experience - that's 2.5 years experience for 10 employees.
  
  
• Have they attended training classes offered by the various manufacturers?
  
  
• Do their trucks have their name and phone number displayed on them? If they're using trucks with no markings, then you might be dealing with a fly-by-night company.
  
  
• Are their salespeople knowledgeable? Or do they just know enough to make a sale.
  
  
• Do they start offering discounts to get your business after you first say no? Look for a company that offers good fair prices up front to everyone.
  
  
• Do they offer a selection from more then one manufacturer?
