Re: basement window replacement
Remove the aluminum frame, leave the steel frame. Either paint the steel exterior or cap it with aluminum.

Re: Is there room for negotiation with replacement windows?
Yes, you can negotiate a price.
You can also change the spec on the job to lower the cost.
If you want something, a lower price or something else repaired, what do you have to offer to make that up. Some real cash, make a promotional video, or something else of value to the install company.

Re: Okna Starmark vs Andersen 100/400 vs Marvin Essentials vs Interstate 9800
Good day, You have four quotes on fairly different products. I am very familar with three. Interstate not so much. The AW quote is very vague as to product 100/400. There is major difference even in the 400 series. I would not suggest 400TW ( this is what lots of companies start with), the 400WDH wo...

Re: Request pro advice on sliding patio door
Good patio doors already weigh a ton.
TP is crazy heavy. Also the air space in most PD TP gets a little narrow.

Re: Soft Lite vs Renewal by Andersen
post pictures so we can see what ya got. Your language and our thoughts do not line up with the pricing.
RBA is insanely overpriced for a low performing window.

Re: Frame Material for Larger Window in Cold Climate
Are you concerned with adding any security in the glass?
Based on what you have shared I would suggest a high performance vinyl unit like the Okna 800 triple pane with argon or its equal.
