Replacement Windows Discussion Board Forum

Time for an update. Builder has been dragging feet on response and I wanted them to resolve other issues before I revive this issue again. I ended up calling the manufacturer and the rep who answered the phone was very friendly and open with the facts. I got an audio recording of an admission that t...

To be blunt, track builders use crappy windows. I my area, Philly, the home of Toll. Many new construction homes will be lucky to make it ten years before they start to replace their windows. No facts but my observation is that builders have always been squezzing the penny. The common use of IGU an...

I do not think the tact on this is legal. I think it is public embarrassment of Toll. They have already corrected others, they will correct yours too. I would expect the next Toll developement wont be sing those windows. Yes, but back to my questions. Is painting the windows "correcting" ...

I'm not a fan of worthless builder warranties in general, but you are barking up the wrong tree. The...

According to the warranty I would say you have no claim. I am not an attorney. You need to ask Toll Brothers what they will do. If you are not satisfied with the fix, contact your attorney.

I bought a new home in Phoenix with Toll Brothers and closed a year ago. They installed white vinyl Cascade windows. At the end of the 1 year builder warranty, one of my warranty claims I have made is that the vinyl is failing. Specifically, the color of the vinyl is fading, worse in areas that have...
