Do not know if the cost matters.
One you are a distance way. That they will even come service you is amazing.
Second you have a boat load of options that are expensive.
Third there are only two other companies besides ours that I would invite to work on my home.
Homesealed is one of them, DEMike is the other.

Cost always matters!! I wanted to stay around $20,000.
As far as options, want triple pane and need wood grain look inside and dark brown to match outside trim.(replacing some 1980's Kolbe wood windows) What options otherwise could be subtracted?? Any thoughts?
I wish there was another OKNA dealer closer. I have heard nothing but good things about Homesealed just wish they had a satellite location here in the Appleton/Green Bay area. AHT windows in Clintonville had Starmark windows. Their quote was outrageous!!
Thanks for feedback

So you have another quote on a Starmark window and you quote was higher from that other vendor?

To be honest, there isn't a more loaded up window than something with triple pane, interior laminate, and an exterior color. The only things you are missing in terms of stuff to move the price up is SDL grids.

Anything triple pane in a quality product is going to surge past the 1K per window number, add in interior laminate and exterior color...well over 1K per window. Same thing for the door. List price around these part for an Elegante in white/white and in double pane is over $3,500. We sell almost no laminates, but that door has to be every bit of 5K with those options. Point being is that I can easily see a 25K aggregate project with those options on that window....easily.

Of course price matters.
So do you have the resources to pay for what you want?
If so you have a super contract in hand and should pull the trigger.

Eric, I still love ya buddy, and I don't love chopped liver.

That was a pretty weak apology or was it even one?
