Egress Window - Install

Serving Firth, ID and surrounding areas

"The best part were the installers. They did a great job installing and cleaning up after the job. The part I had a problem with, was Andrew didn't communicate with me on the order status. When we ordered the windows (during Covid) the first week of June, the sales guys said it would be 5 weeks. After 8 weeks I called Andrew. His voice mail was full, and I couldn't get in contact with him. I went to the office and no one was there that day. The next week I went by the office again. I was able to talk to the office gal and after that Andrew called me and said windows were coming in August. When the windows were finally getting installed they realized two of the windows came in the wrong size! So they reordered them and another 5 weeks of waiting. So finely the last week of October the last two windows were installed. Needless to say it was a very frustrating experience. Just need to communicate better, the product is a good quality product."
