Randy?s team was courteous and respectful of our home and belongings. Randy uses the same people on his team and has been working with them for years. The foreman, George, was great about communicating and asking questions when needed on my preferences for certain aspects of the installation. George did a thorough inspection of each window at the end of the job. He noticed a scratch on the inside of one of the windows that I didn?t even notice and ordered a replacement window. Randy would not accept the final payment until the replacement window was installed and I was completely satisfied with the work. This shows his level of commitment to producing excellent work. While I was pretty nervous about replacing our windows, I am so glad we had the work done because we LOVE our new windows! They are very well made and look beautiful, and I expect many years of enjoyment of these windows.
Ultra Windows showed up on time, were very professional and performed carefully, removing my old existing windows and installing new energy efficient windows. They look beautiful. Randy Swearingen is very knowledgeable about windows and and can help make recommendations regarding choices available.
Randy gave me references and even suggested that I visit a current work site to actually see the installation process. I highly recommend future customers take the time to visit an installation site to see how the windows are installed and the attention to detail by the crew.
Overall, I had an outstanding experience. The windows are a great product and Randy has an excellent installation crew!
I give Ultra Windows my compliments for an outstanding job well done. From the initial sales visit to the installation crew, I could not have been happier. Randy does a good job trying to educate his customers. Randy presents different products and gives his customer the information they need to make an educated decision. The installation crew really performs. They kept me informed of their schedule and took the necessary precautions to keep my home protected and clean. My new windows really look great on my 1970 ranch house. I agree with other reviewers with Randy and his crew?s incredible attention to detail. You simply can?t go
wrong with Ultra Windows!
I only wished all contractors lived up to Randy's quality and sales standards. I was a pleasure working with Randy and his crew. At the completion of my job, I told Randy how lucky he is to have such a skilled installation crew that really took care of my property like it was their own. They took the necessary precautions to protect my furniture and cleaned up each day.
Very, very happy with the results.
The install was flawless, they actually removed the glass rather than breaking it, no shards for the little one to get into.
The house is quieter and the electric bill is lower and they look way better than windows on the street that cost 3x as much.
These guys are pros.
From the first phone call to the job was finished everything was GREAT. Randy explained all about the products and then what we could do. I had many different window from regular to huge to arches to side window by the door. He was able to come up with solutions to every one of them. When the schedule was made to install his team showed up they were so professional and knew exactly what they are doing. The detail that they apply to the installation and clean up was beyond expectations.
With the replacement of every window and door in my house I expected it to be a nightmare. Never at any time was it anything but smooth. I not only have windows that have changed the complete appearance of my home to a big difference in the cooling and the quietness. I bought the bronze which have even made my brick look better. I love the product .
It is a pleasure to work with Randy and he makes every thing just run so smooth and I knew from the first appointment I was dealing with an honest and very up front gentleman.
Randy Swearingen/Ultra Winidows, most professional and knowledgeable of the ones I'd called for an estimate. Although not the least expensive, Randy uses an experienced team to install the windows and assured me of a quality job. And he was right. The team of 3 were on-time, worked continuously and quietly throughout the day. Additional caulking used around window and door opening before installing the windows + finish caulking after windows were securely installed ensured a really tight seal all around. Finish caulking was picture perfect. And clean up was even better than what I could have done--swept, vacuumed, hauled away the smallest debris. We are very satisfied with the Ultra Window team!
I believe his price was fair since his quote for Inline fiberglass windows was only slightly higher than that for Pella fiberglass windows and I think the Inline is considered to be a higher quality window.
The windows were ordered and delivered with a few weeks and the actual installation went very smoothly. The speed and quality of the installation was impressive. It took only 2 days for Randy's guys to do all 17 windows. They look very nice and are perfectly caulked. The guys also cleaned up meticulously which seems fairly rare for most service people. They also fixed a rotten board and installed some new trim at no additional cost.
At first we were going to try and match the old windows which were painted a cream white, but then we found that the aluminum windows only come in a few colors, so we decided to go with the dark ("bronze") color. We are happy with our choice.
I did take bids from other companies who were both higher priced and unpleasant to work with. I felt confident I was getting a fair price for a quality product and installation.
He really talked up his installation crew and their methods - and he was right. They were very thorough and knew what they were doing. They worked diligently and patiently to complete the job correctly. On top of that, they were super nice guys that I enjoyed chatting with.
I would enthusiastically recommend doing business with Ultra Windows to anyone looking to replace windows.
In the end there were two who offered the right window (the same window from both). But it was Randy from Ultra Windows who offered the right combination of the right window and the best installation technique. And he had my trust.
He and his crew fully delivered on that trust. They got the windows ordered quickly, and kept me informed about delivery dates. As others have said, his crew was very concientious in controlling the dust and mess. (Look, a little dust is inevitable.) And they did an excellent job of cleaning up each day.
The crew leader noticed a small problem with one of the special order windows as delivered by the mfr. Rather than accept it, they insisted the window be re-made correctly. It caused a brief delay in finishing the job, but what's a few weeks when the windows will be there for 20 years? Just an example of the attention to detail in ordering and installing that Randy and his crew provides.
Regarding price: Several bidders tried the initial price, here's a "good if you buy today only" lower price , and after they didn't hear from me, here's my "last ditch desperation offer to get your job" price. Ultra Window's one-and-only price was right in there with the other guy's desperation price.
What that means is (and I understand this would be difficult for some) but my recommendation would be to call Ultra Windows first, and if he has what you need, go with it. Spare yourself the parade of salesman from the other contractors.
We received a call that the windows had arrived in the timeframe he had given us and we set up a day to have them delivered and for the work to start. The windows arrived as scheduled and the workers arrived shortly after. It didn't take long to realize that the crew had quite a bit of experience working together installing windows. They definitely knew what they were doing. The bulk of the window install was done in one day with the door and finish work done the next day. The supervisor laid the caulking and did a totally amazing job at it. He was a true artist.After taking the glass out of the old windows, collapsing the frames to remove them, filling the gaps (some companies don't mention or do this), putting in the replacement windows, and caulking them, the house and yard were as clean or cleaner than when they started.
I had just put engineered hardwood in the house along with baseboard and trim around the exterior doors. I had some additional material so I could finish out the front door when they were finished but they trimmed everything out as part of the job. A few weeks later, my wife still wanted the glass door so I called and had them order it. A few weeks later, they came out and installed it. They were total professionals throughout the entire project.
I had asked for "rain" glass for the bathroom window but they missed it and I didn't catch that they had missed it on their estimate.
Randy was great about it and replaced 4 panes to ensure we were satisfied with everything. Due to some nonrelated (medical) issues, we had to lower our thermostat 5 degrees shortly after the windows were installed so I don't have a good apples to apples comparison of electricity used before and after but before the install, we could feel cold air dropping off of the window sills and going down the wall and since the install, the temperature in the house is consistent even near the windows regardless of how cold or hot it is outsie. The quality of the workmanship looked good when we had the windows and doors installed and it has held up well. I would definitely recommend Ultra Windows for replacement windows and doors.
We decided to replace our old windows and door as part of a VA IRRRL, and we ended up with a loan officer than made so many mistakes that it seemed like she had never closed on a home with the VA before. Oftentimes we were given false information that delayed the funding process, and thus the payment to Ultra Windows. Randy was always courteous, understanding, and much more patient than I was through this whole process.
You should choose Ultra Windows, believe me, I've met with everyone else in the area, and they're the best!
