Re: Power - Symphony Pella windows
I didnt know that power did new construction installs, thats interesting. The price they gave you for that type of install is actually a decent price. As far as telling you to cancel, thats not really up to me especially since it doesnt look like anything is standing out that apoears to be a red fla...

Re: After Install Questions
To be honest, most companies dont do any painting or touch up painting. A one man show may do something like that.
Also, close up pics tend to exaggerate small imperfections that are more than acceptable. A hole the size of a pin can appear large if a picture is taken very close up with a phone.

Re: What to consider when replacing double hung with all casement windows?
The Okna is a great window and is the best of that bunch while pella is at the bottom.
The Okna 700 is their casement window. They also have double hungs and sliders as well.
Okna is known for their superior energy efficiency and structural integrity.

Re: MI Windows & Doors /Sunrise acquisition
Since windowdirectcincy is the only true sunrise dealer here, i would take his word. I have used sunrise on more than a few occasions including a large bow window and never had one issue. Its a solid product offering.

Re: During & After Installation Advice

Re: Is exterior trim required on Okna replacement windows?
The Okna window will NOT protrude 3 inches, you are incorrect. The jamb depth is 3 1/4” the same as every other window. Your exterior is very common and there is absolutely no issue with Okna’s exterior. With a replacement, you keep the existing J channel. The Okna has a decorative bevel which also ...

Re: Window pricing for MN
I am in agreement. There is nothing shady about them cashing your check. You cancel, they send you out a check. Whats the big deal with that?

Re: Requesting advice on bids
I think you have a clear winner with the Sunrise Restorations. Are you getting any grids?
