Thats very difficult to quantify, what may be noisy to you may not be noisy to the installer. Its certainly not the installers fault.
Also, you claim “ prior to him changing the caulk you could’nt hear a siren”. Changing caulk has nothing to do with sound. I think you may be grasping at straws.

Not sure what state you live in but as far as quality and energy efficiency with a nice looking exterior, you may want to look into Okna Windows.

are you sure your pricing is correct; only 3k for a 9ft patio door including install? thats extremely cheap.

I would immediately scratch MI Windows and Window World from that list. They are not what we would consider quality.

Sdl grids are expensive but well worth it. Sunrise do make a nice sdl grid, we actually installed about 10 a few weeks back, although we only use sunrise in certain situations now.

I have zero marketing, besides my good looks and widely appealing personality.“

Toddinmn, do you have a website? Do you have a showroom or do you just rely on your garage and pick up truck? Do you do any kind of marketing? What kind of company would you classify yourself as? Installation/sole proprietor? The reason i ask is because you are basically an installer and you wont be...
