"Nice selection of finishes and colors for windows. Salesman was friendly and easy to ask questions. He provided information with out all the high pressure sales pitch. The crew that put the windows in was fast and efficient. I appreciated the wife of owner/manager also works with them. It was more comfortable having another female present rather than a bunch of men invading the house. All cleanup was performed so the job was complete. Windows look very nice, have greatly improved warmth in house. I love the fact I can open windows from the top to allow air flow without blowing papers off my desk and work area. "
"Green Valley came to my rescue again! We had a leak in the house and we were not sure where it was coming from. I called Green Valley, who installed our roof 7 years ago, to see if that was the problem. They sent out a two guys (that day!) to inspect the inside and outside of the roof. They ended up finding that there was an issue with the chimney that was causing the leak and not the roof. Not only did they not charge me for the visit but they gave me a on the spot estimate to resolve the issue. They have always been great from the installation of our roof, as well as an estimate on our window replacement. They are all about customer service and it shows!!!!"

"Sooo....first, Jim is a very nice guy. However, Jim now works in Nashville during the week and is only home to the Huntsville area on the weekends. My first impression of him was that he was awesome. My computer system had crashed because I pulled the plug during a thunder storm before the computer fully shut down which resulted in the computer hanging up. Jim took my call while in Tennessee and suggested how to fix the system. For this I am very grateful.
What happened next was I had him come and check my computer to make sure everything was working properly. He came to my house and spent an hour tweaking it (basically running various checks on the system), for which I paid him $50. He suggested that my laptop would work much better if I had Windows 7 and increased my RAM up to 4 GB. He said he could install it for me for (including the RAM) for about $160. We met the following weekend for the handoff and he loaded Window 7. When I received the call it was ready, the bill was $227.50. I was surprised that is was $70 more than quoted, but paid it anyways. When I asked about the RAM, he mentioned he did not upgrade the RAM and this would be another $60. I was a little discouraged at that point since I felt like I was being taken advantage of, but the guy is relatively nice, so I said to go ahead and order the RAM. He did so and the following weekend was supposed to install it. Due to some personal things in his life, he wasn't able to install it, so I picked it up since I had to go out of town and could use the IT guy at my new location to install it for me. When we went to install the RAM, the system wouldn't let us do it since my particular type of laptop can only take 2GB of RAM max. If Jim had gone to the crucial.com website (where he bought my RAM) and entered my computer system on it, it would have told him the max amount of RAM that could be installed on that unit. He did not do that. He is supposed to refund my $60 this next weekend.
I think if Jim wasn't burning the candle at both ends by having a job in Tennessee during the week and trying to run this business on the weekends, it would've been a better experience. Perhaps taking a few extra minutes to SLOW DOWN and write out an estimate of everything he would need for the job including the prices would ensure people know up front how much the repair would/should cost so they can budget accordingly. I think if he had taken that approach, it might've been a better experience. So now I am stuck with a laptop that runs slower because Windows 7 uses more memory and a laptop that can't be upgraded to more RAM. Basically, the last step which cost me almost $300 was not necessary. If you need something simple done like coming back from a system crash, he would be okay to use. Otherwise, for the bigger jobs, I recommend he provide a written estimate with the items he plans to do.
UPDATE: After posting this review, I received a number of text messages from Jim commenting on the bad review. I understand he is upset, but harassing someone about a review is not a good way to go. My review was honest and not meant to be mean, but to let those that use Angie's list get what they pay for...an honest review of someone's experience."
"Sales process was good, courteous and helpful. Installation instructions were easy to follow. Did have a small issue with one sensor which was easily solved with a call. Control panel is easy to use and well constructed. Phone app is the best part. Not a big fan of a 2 year contract and the monthly rate feels a little high, but definitely a decent system. I had emailed them a question pertaining installing on double hung windows and never received a reply, but other than that their phone support prior to that was good."
Bay windows are expensive mostly because their above-average size means higher material costs. Unlike bow windows, most bay windows also include casement windows on either side of a picture window, and the opening mechanisms for casement windows drive up costs. You’ll also pay higher labor costs to install a bay window, as you’ll often need multiple technicians to lift the window into place.
Yes, you can enlarge windows in a brick house. Your masonry contractor will need to cut away exterior brick to make space for the larger window, and you may also need to consult a structural engineer to make sure the window is properly supported inside the frame of the house.

No, windows cannot be made 100% soundproof. Even the most advanced setups still allow some sound to pass through because windows are designed to let in light and are not completely sealed from the outside. While you cannot achieve complete silence, significant noise reduction is possible, with some noise-reduction windows blocking up to 95% of outside noise.
The goal is to minimize air gaps, add mass, and reduce vibration. To block out as much noise as possible, consider hiring a professional to install new double-pane, triple-pane, or laminated windows. You can further enhance soundproofing with airtight seals, glass inserts, shutters, or sound-dampening curtains. With the right upgrades, you can block out traffic, neighbors, and other city noise to a much quieter level.
ENERGY STAR®-certified windows are the most energy-efficient windows on the market. This certification means that the window meets strict efficiency guidelines set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency. While they might cost more upfront, they can save you money on your energy bills in the long run. ENERGY STAR®-certified windows lower household energy bills by an average of 12% annually.
