Final Decision point on Windows

#1 Post by cpeterfeso »

Talked to several companies and finally got some bids for some decent windows. We are in the Atlanta area and here is where we are at:

Received a couple more bids and here is what we are looking at:
Option 1: Okna 500 series: $42,819 for 37 double hung, 4 picture windows
Option 2: Provia Endure: $39,650 for 37 double hung and 4 picture windows
Both install companies seem great; it is really just a question of the Provia vs Okna and are the Okna 500s worth the extra money and if I should look to upgrade to the Okna 800 or is that overkill. Thoughts?? Thanks so much

In this comparison, yes.

The 800 is not overkill and when you figure that much of the other costs are fixed in this case, the additional investment in the 800 is worth it.

+1. Small premium in the grand scheme for a much better window.

The 800 depending on cost. Better yet look at them both in person.
