I purchased my new windows from Definis and Sons Beginning with my visit to the showroom, through the installation, I could not have been more pleased. The folks at Definis and Sons thoroughly explained everything to me regarding their products, pricing and warranties. The installers were also very knowledgeable about my window selection and extremely respectful of me and my home. They did a fantastic job. I'm planning on replacing my storm door soon, and will definitely be going back there.

I had a bad experience when I had countertops installed by another “reputable company” so when I hired DeFinis to come out to install my front door, I was very hesitant. To my surprise the installer was very knowledgeable and quite the perfectionist! I have a beautiful door and the rotting wood that was under and around the door is gone. I hired DeFinis again a few months later to install my Bay Window. Jim and Cody were just as amazing and I can’t say enough about the workmanship and attention to detail. Absolutely beautiful window! I highly recommend this company. Very professional!!

I first went to Definis because they had the best price, but I’m glad I did. Their show room was pretty and they helped me find the best windows to match those that were already in the house. We chose a double paned window to save on heating and cooling costs. This was all the way back in 2009 and I’m now selling the house and needed a copy of my receipt. I couldn’t find it anywhere so I emailed them to see if they still had one. Within a few hours they sent me a copy. Very helpful!

Installer showed up on time and the job he did was perfect. He did things I didn't expect to be done, all new flashing around the door, even on the one where he only replaced the storm door. He was METICULOUS. I could not be happier with the work.

The price was decent but I don't remember what it was. The quality was really good. It is quality work and they clean up after themselves. The workers were very nice. Cleanup was spotless.

Definis and Sons recently installed a large bay window with a shingled roof pent and the window is magnificent! From the moment we stopped into their beautiful showroom to the installation date we knew we were in good hands. Jim Jr. and his helper were courteous, on time, super clean and an absolute pleasure to have in our home. Thabk you for a job well done! We will definitely use your services again when we replace our doors in the spring.

Definis installed a Bow Window my wife picked out, they installed it when stated but on the day of the installation I ask the installer Jimmy DeFinis why the window was sticking out 2" past the stone front of the house and why the trim covered the Lintol ( the steel L supporting the top of the wall over the window, " How was the water supposed to shed when it rained if it was covered". His response was "We have installed many of these windows and had no problem". Less than 6 months later the window was leaking. We called DeFinis and they came out and caulked the window, next heavy rain we had puddles on the inside window sill again. this time when called I was told it was the "Roof Leaking" but the roof was less than 8months old but I still called my roofer and he checked it and said there was no problem. Next I was told it was the "Stone Pointing" I pointed the front and again when it rained we had a leak. Next I was told it was the caulking around the attic vent, I had already caulked it in anticipation of this response. By this time we had a large spot the was rotting out and I was told to just fill it myself. After over a year of going back and forth I contacted a Window Trouble shooter from Pella windows and the moment he came out I was told the leak was because DeFinis had covered the Lintel and the water had nowhere to go but inside the house. The Pella man wrote up a report which we sent to DeFinis with the note that we would be taking legal action for their mistake. Finally they came out and had to remove the window and replace the bottom sill and change the way it fit making sure the steel Lintel was exposed so the water could shed. This finally fixed the problem! DeFinis never took responsibility for the bad install and I had to threaten legal action in order to get them to fix it. I would never trust them with my house again and when asked I would never recommend them!

"We are so fortunate to have so many amazing and happy customers that we come in contact with on a daily basis that sometimes we forget that there are some individuals out there who are impossible to make happy and thrive on an opportunity to disparage a company's hard earned reputation. This homeowner had multiple pre-existing conditions that were to be fixed by him after the installation and instead of having a professional do this work he tried to do it himself. Anytime we were contacted by this homeowner we responded in a timely manner and always with respect. We decided to change the interior sill and recap the window at no charge on 5-6-15. It has been almost 2 years since the service work was completed and we are not sure why this person decided to reach out now. We are coming up on our 60th year in business and look forward to service our community in any way we can."

The company is family run. They are professional, knowledgable, and clean up when they are done. I had a problem window that allowed a lot of water to come in. After my new windows were installed, the problem was solved. They don't oversell, they try to put you into the correct window as inexpensively and they can. They were half the price of other window company I received a price from, with better windows.

In the showroom the owner's wife was friendly and helpful.  It took a while to get the windows due to the type I ordered but they were installed within the time frame I wanted.  The two installers were friendly and professional and they did a good job.  They did leave some debris in my driveway that I had to pick up but other than that I have no complaints about the installation.

They came out and put two windows in and I wasn't happy with the instillation (left sharp metal on the on the window in my bedroom.)  Then when I got a leak in my kitchen (right under the window they installed) I called them and they came and told me it must be my roof. After the new roof was installed I still had the leak when ever the rain hit the window so I called them back and they still said it wasn't the window. I took my hose up and sprayed the window and it leaked. I've been trying to get them to come back and they are taking their time getting back to me.                                                                              
Also these windows are so cheaply made that I would tell anyone not to use this company and their standing behind their cheep windows. My advice to anyone is to go with the name brands and DON'T get these people to do anything for you.
I don't know how they got all their good reviews (family and friends) but they SUCK!

"Sorry to see that you gave us such a bad review. You neglected to state that your wall on one side was open with cracks all over when WE water tested it for you. We were at your home on three different locations. You told our man there that you would make the necessary repairs, and told me you were sorry for having the service man come out, when he showed you after water testing it WAS NOT the window. Please repair your walls (the siding) and your house [Member Name Removed] not leak. Yes, we have great reviews, because we do great work! Good luck to you."

They arrived at 8:00 am as expected, installed, cleaned up both inside and out and were done by 10:15- Everything was handled exceptional well and I love the window.

We had a great experience with Definis and Sons. We needed 2 exterior steel doors and a storm door installed sooner than their usual time quoted for a job like this. They worked around our schedule and rushed the order for the doors. The doors were installed early as promised and look wonderful.

Definis and Sons installed replacement windows for us in September 1999. The windows were manufactured by Thermal Industries. We are happy with the workmanship as well as the products. Earlier this year one of the window panes failed, resulting in fogging and internal staining. So we wanted to have it replaced.
After some initial confusion (which may have been caused by me) both Definis and Sons and Thermal Industries teamed up to repair our window in a timely manner.
I would use both again in the future.
