Only thing I was not happy about was that the price quoted was available only while our salesman was here. I usually want to get at least 3 quotes but did do some price checking earlier and the price quoted was in line what we had seen. Installer was great and attention to detail was awesome.

They were in and out within the time discussed. From what I can see from the pictures they did a great job. Communication wasn't the greatest with me being out of the area at the time. But, I am overall satisfied with the work they did!

I'm only giving them a 3 on the product and the install because it has been 4 weeks since I ordered the windows and the salesman said they would be installed within 3 to 6 weeks. Come to find out it takes more than 4 weeks to make the windows then they get delivered to your area and you get put on the schedule. After they arrive. I. Also ordered a front door a back door and garage door and siding for my house. The salesman keeps telling his boss I am holding off on them when I told him I want the doors in now (3 weeks ago) and the siding ordered and ready for install awaiting the windows.

1st Choice constructed a screened in porch addition to our home. The porch has an elevated ceiling, which gives it an attractive, open feeling. The work performed made it look like a part of our original home. The porch will serve as a lovely extension to our home. Very pleased with the entire project.
