Get matched with top window pros in Macon, MO

"A very thorough job of installation of the windows. The windows look, and feel MUCH better than Our old windows."

"

First off, the salesman Russell was great.  Very knowledgeable and informed on all aspects of what he was doing.  I explained his was the first of three bids I was planning to get and he didn't get pushy.  He did still try to close the sale on our first meeting but that's his job.  He was also easy to contact and prompt to return calls.  After talking to him for a while you start to wonder why in the world is this guy selling windows?! (Not knocking window salesmen)  An interesting guy and a big part of the reason I chose Window World.

Next, the windows.  I'm not a home improvement type person, but they seem to me to be very good quality for the price and are a huge improvement over the old 1970's era wooden single pane windows I had.  I could immediately tell a huge difference in how they keep the wind and cold out.  Several of my friends in the construction industry were very impressed with the build and quality when I showed them.  Time will tell further, but based on what I see, and lots of research, they are a huge step above basic builder grade quality.

Last, the installation.  The windows arrived ahead of plan and installation was scheduled quick and easy.  They guys called when they were on the way and arrived on time.  Overall everything went well.  I did ask them to re caulk one of the windows as the bead was pretty ugly and got dirt in it.  They took care of it right away.  I later noticed one of the screens had a tear in it and they came back promptly and took care of it.  Based on my experience, I expect to get good service in the future if needed.

A few small problems.  One of the installers was standing on my front porch smoking.  I believe you should ask the customer first if that's OK.  I did politely ask him not to smoke.  I guess I should have also asked him not to leave cigarette butts in my driveway. When they took the windows off the truck, a bunch of broken glass fell off and was left on my driveway.  Per their paperwork, a normal amount of post construction clean up is the customer's responsibility but broken glass covering the width of my driveway is beyond normal post construction clean up.   I didn't notice that until a few hours later so I just cleaned it up myself but I did contact the project manager and let him know about those issues.  Another thing, as noted on their paperwork, they are not responsible for damage to shrubs or landscaping.   I pointed out a particular shrub to the installer and they said no problem, they could work around it, but it was stepped on and destroyed. 

As I stated though, I consider these to be small problems and will be purchasing more windows from Window World in the future and would recommend them.

"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."

"Install was easy. Up front cost was pretty low with Angie's List coupon. Monthly price is a little high compared to competing companies. Response time with alarms is excellent. I was advised to use glass break alarms within 10 ft of my first floor windows, which we installed correctly. I asked prior to installation if having one in the kitchen would cause false alarms due to dishes clanging, etc. I was told the glass break alarms are configured to a precise frequency that alarms with breaking glass. So, not a "no", but not really an answer. Well, every time we cook dinner, wash dishes or empty the dish washer, the kitchen glass break alarm gives a warning which would sound the alarm if it was set. This has caused us a number of false alarms while we've been away due to shifting bowls or plates in our drying rack. For the first several we've had to pay our police department $120 to check the house, and I was only notified after the first alarm that there was a cheaper option for a security company to drive by to check for a break in."

This is a revised post.  I contracted with Siding Repair Systems (headquartered in O’Fallon, MO) in June 2015 for the removal and replacement of the wood siding on my two story house with James Hardie Siding (8" Hardie Lap Color +).  The estimate was for 2458 square feet of siding, 330 feet of soffit/fascia and 235 feet of 5" gutters and downspouts.  Mr. Cory Feco, principal/owner, met with me to provide contract and cost details in late June 2015 prior to signing the contract.  The installation window specified in the contract was a starting date NLT August 15 and a completion date NLT Sept 21.  The contracted cost of the job was just under $ 26,000 and a $ 1,000 deposit was provided to get the job scheduled.  The contract specified a payment of 20% upon material delivery, a payment of 30% at halfway completion and the balance upon satisfactory completion of the job. 

 

Siding Repair Systems called on Friday, August 21 and said that a crew would show up to begin the work on Monday, August 24.  The crew showed up on August 24.  Branch Manager Paul Dickens reviewed the work plan with me that morning.  The siding materials were delivered that afternoon.  The crew immediately commenced removal of the old siding.  Project Coordinator Cash Stricker showed up that afternoon to check in and see how the work was proceeding. 

 

The crew was diligent in their work.  They showed up promptly every morning, worked hard and kept the jobsite (my yard) relatively clean and organized.  The attention showed by Branch Manager Paul Dickens and Project Coordinator Cash Stricker during the prosecution of the work was timely, appropriate and appreciated.

 

The only detract was that about a week after completion of the fascia/trim painting, I noted exposed (unpainted) wood on the soffit above my garage.  I called Branch Manager Paul Dickens and left a voice mail about this issue.  Mr. Dickens did not returned my call.  I also mentioned this issue to Mr. Stricker and he said that he would get back to me.  He never got back to me.  This unpainted soffit issue remains unresolved.  My take-away is to be sure that a thorough final inspection is performed and that all issues have been resolved before final payment is made.  I would certainly use this company again but would delay final payment until all outstanding issues have been resolved.

"John did an excellent job. I mentioned that I was going to paint the flashing black but he suggested to wait a month and the flashing will look as though it was part of the original window and he was 100% correct. He called a few weeks later to inquire if everything was still OK"
