Installers that manufacture their own window

Y’all helped me with my last questions about unknown/smaller brands, and now I’ve got another question. There’s a window company in Nashville that manufactures their own windows. Uses cardinal glass, energy star, nfrc certified, verified by Tennessee Valley Authority for energy efficiency etc. From ...

Re: Replacement windows Nashville (unknown brands)

From what I’ve see the sash’s bowing is more common for windows longer than 40 inches. Should I just ask for upgrades on windows longer than that or is it an all or nothing sort of thing? The price seems to be right in there. If they can upgrade to sash reinforcement I would want it. Soft-Lite is go...

Re: Replacement windows Nashville (unknown brands)

A little update: we had a Sunrise dealer out this weekend. Their website says they are a soft-lite dealer, but he said he felt the quality of the window has declined in recent years, and that sunrise is better for price, although he could still get us soft lite if we truly wanted that. He quoted 20 ...

Re: Replacement windows Nashville (unknown brands)

One other question with this: on the soft-lite website I entered in information to find a dealer near me. The only dealers that pop up are zen windows. So the company I contacted that carries soft-lite isn’t listed as a dealer: should that be a red flag or does it not matter?

No okna/hi mark.

Re: Replacement windows Nashville (unknown brands)

The bad reviews are that they are hold to get ahold of and don’t complete jobs on time. A few said they had issues with windows and they could never get anyone out and their phone line rang and rang. I tried to call the company a few times over the last month just to get someone to come out and no o...

Replacement windows Nashville (unknown brands)

Hello, So I am having a hard time finding window brands that have gotten good recommendations in the Nashville, TN area. I want vinyl, double-hung. Wife is interested in a garden window. Any pros or cons to those? I found one soft lite dealer and one sunrise dealer, but the soft lite dealer got bad ...
