Are the Milgard Styleline just as good as the Tuscany?

In the quote you attached there are some windows with Low-E366 and others with ProSolar Low-E. In El Paso, you should go with 366 in all of the windows. Additionally, if you go with Simonton, make sure you get the windows reinforced, which is not included in your quote. Milgard's Tuscany line would...

Ok, I will ask about those. No, this is through a contractor out here.

I am in the Los Angeles area. I do not know of the building market in your area. I do not think anyone on this board does either, as mentioned before. I am thinking that you are going to need 3-4 additional quotes on better window products. Simonton, Milgard are available in your area. These are mi...

Here is a quote for you to go off of. Is this reasonable? Good product? Good configuration? http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/5876/001xgz.jpg http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/1886/002lal.jpg http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/302/003pun.jpg http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/2716/004rg.jpg

Ballpark??? It doesn't have to be super specific. Nope. As I said, if you don't think it's a fair price, then get a couple of estimates. Hopefully, you are also asking installation questions too. Two dealers can quote you 2 different prices on the same window and it might be to your benefit to go w...

These are the windows that I have: Picture windows 2-34 x 57.5 1-69.5 x 57.5 2-23 x 57.5 1-43 x 57.5 Sliders 2-47.5 x 35.5 3-35.5 x 23.5 (1 needs to be obscure) 2-71.5 x 35.5 Patio Sliding Doors 1-96 x 80 1-72 x 80 In your professional opinions, what do you think I should be paying for a job like th...

In El Paso, if you're going to go with Simonton, I'd stick with either the 5500 or 9800 series, and upgrade to the optional sash reinforcement, along with Low-E366. The quote he is preparing for me is for the 5050 (which is also what he brought for me to look at). What do you think of the 5050? Go ...

So with the price being SO low are they down there with Royal and BetterBilt? Are they better than either of those 2?

I am getting another quote today from a guy who uses Solar Industries. What is you're take on these??

I did get the quote from the Simonton guy and wanted to send you guys the quote to get your opinions on it but I don't see a place to send a PM?

In El Paso, if you're going to go with Simonton, I'd stick with either the 5500 or 9800 series, and upgrade to the optional sash reinforcement, along with Low-E366. My advice hasn't changed. Ok, so basically stay away from the 5050? Is it that much worse than the 5500? Any other advice you can give...
