Window Opinions

#1 Post by Mestopin »

Anyone have any opinions on the quality of the following brands of windows:

1) Pella (Lowes)
2) Long Fence (Internet)
3) Window Mart (Local Quote)

Just starting my reserch. Looking for good quality at a reasonable price.

Thanks
Mark

I'm in Houston. I'm looking for replacement windows for my home. It's been quoted as 24 windows (7 double windows, 1 picture w/sides, and some smaller windows) total of varying sizes. I was looking at vinyl, double pane, low e, mixture of single hung and picture windows. Does not need to be argon filled.

Two quotes were the Windown Mart window. I believe they are out of Arkansas. Lowes carries them as the Dakota line. I was told they are comparable to the Pella but couldn't find any technical on either to verify the quality compared to some of the more well known brands (Schucco, Gorrell).

Thanks for any assistance.

You have a local dealer that posts on this site once in a while. His name is Randy and he owns Lone Star Windows. He carries Milgard and has recently started carrying Schuco. I 'm not sure if he has any other brands. He seems like a good guy from what he has posted here. Try him if you wish. His email address is randy@lonestarwindows.net

His Website is: http://www.lonestarwindows.net/
