Our neighbors bath tub valve blew out when it froze; they sound asleep when it happened. The tub drain was not working well, so the tub overflowed and there was major water damage to ceilings, floors and walls. The tub is on the second floor with the valve located on the outside wall.

Re: ? How To Get My Money Back !!!!

Just one question...With all the windows that have been sold by Renewal by Anderson, how come there isn't more negative feedback from homeowners? I have asked myself that very same question. I have RBA windows and to be honest about it, if i had to do it over again, i would still go with the same w...

StickerShock You have casement windows and 3 patio doors. The multi unit windows are like 2 or even 3 units -- so it's unfair to compare your job to the customer who is looking at $500 per hole. Based on your measurements -- you have a very large job. The quotes you've gotten seem reasonable and I ...

I am not a Renewal Rep. but i had one out to my house last year. I would not say that he was bashing vinyl, but what he was doing was stating the difference between vinyl and Fibrex. Found out later that what he said about Fibrex and vinyl are facts. When facts are pointed out, is that bashing?

All this would would be much clearer to the readers if data was posted. Wha...
