Everything went extremely well. The door had to be custom made to fit the opening. We were asked what features we wanted in the door and the salesperson inquired about items we had not even thought about. Installation was very professional and thorough. Folker's did all of the legwork also in acquiring the work permit which was quickly signed off on when the inspector reviewed the work. Awesome stuff! We paid more for the service and quality; however, it was well worth the money spent.

Overall great experience. Cost was reasonable when compared to other Major local window companies. From the estimate to installation, no hiccups at all. Everybody was very professional and we are very happy with our new efficient windows. The owner even called me during the installation to see how things were going and the company contacted me after everything was over to see how things went. I've already recommended them to a couple friends looking to replace factory windows.
Description of Work: Replaced 9 windows with impact windows and ordered hurricane covers for the other 8 windows.

Very professional group. Installers were on time, did great work and cleaned up after themselves. Window quality as good or better than any of the other window companies I got estimates from. we have an old house with non standard window sizes and new windows fit great, open and close as they should. I would use again.

Starting with the Rep Linda and ending with the 2 Technicians I would only wish that my experiences with other companies went as well. This Company not only provided exactly as they promised, They exceeded my expectations finishing an entire day early and treating my entire construction experience with the feeling " My job was the priority ". The Techs worked in the backyard with my dogs and not only did they treat them well, I thought the dogs wanted to leave with them. I am planning to get all of my windows changed, a new front door and a Bay window installed and Folkers has my Business from here on. The owner Kip called me and personally checked to make sure I was happy with the work and gave me his personal guarantee that my satisfaction was important. In a world full of people complaining I am happy to say I found a company that makes me proud to say Good Job ! The Final Kudos I will give to Folkers is I was considering selling this house but, Thanks to them I now Know I can make this one into the one I wanted to build without it being a nightmare. One door actually made my house have an entirely new personality. Great People and Great Company!

The slowest part of the process was the time it took to manufacture the windows and the Hurricane shutters. But I understood that all of the items had to be made to provice measurements and in the end everything fit perfectly.
Description of Work: I have used Folkers twice. The first time to replace all windows in my Daughters home and most reasontly to install Hurricane Shutters on my home. In both instances they were excellent. The installers were outstanding both times.

Set up appointment to get estimate, was emailed, called and texted to remind about appointment. They came out, took measurements and I never heard from them again. Called to ask about status - straight to voice mail and no response. This was 3 weeks ago, now its deep into hurricane season and I'm back where I started.

When we decided to have our windows replaced, we first contacted Lowes. Their estimate just about gave me a heart attack. We turned to Angie's List (should have gone here first!) and saw that Folker's had great reviews. Our experience with them, from the first phone call to the final install yesterday, has been wonderful. They are very friendly, informative, and their price almost half of Lowes. The windows are beautiful!

This job went so smoothly - from the time we got the estimate through installation. I had requested a specific installation date as I don't live in Pensacola. Darren and John were most responsive. The installers arrived on time and were able to complete the job in a single day. The windows and door look beautiful. All debris from the old windows was cleaned up and hauled away. I highly recommend Folkers.

Thanks [Member Name Removed]. There's a saying we like to use - "the cheapest window is the most expensive window you'll ever have installed". At the end of the day, the window is only part of the equation. The labor and installation methods are just as, if not more, important. The Folkers team is the best at what we do. Thank you for the opportunity and the business. We look forward to the next steps related to your door. Thanks again, Kip Robinson, Owner

I have to agree with most other reviews; job could not have gone better. Installation was meticulously done in a total of two days - half of the time originally estimated. Windows themselves are well built and work perfectly, as well as being very nice looking. Initial savings on air conditioning costs seems to be in the range of 10%, but the main advantages are storm safety and the surprisingly strong ability to dampen the outside noise. The two installers worked steadily and efficiently, and cleaned up the job site well. The old windows were recycled, and all debris was carried away. I am very pleased.

It went great. Ms. Linda came out and discussed our needs and expectations and then proceeded to show us our various options. She was extremely nice and knowledgeable. My dogs and baby didn't even drive her crazy :) We have several windows and doors we are working on replacing in our new home from the unpreferred builder grade windows/doors. We are doing in in sections as we want the best. We will have Folkers replace all remaining house windows and doors as money permits. The entire staff from Ms. Linda, the office, the owner, the installers that we have had the pleasure of speaking with or working with have been remarkable. We love our new windows and noticed and immediate difference! We highly, highly recommend Folkers. They were clear, concise, extremely knowledgeable, prompt & professional.

Salesperson was knowledgeable and professional. Made informed recommendations about options and window ratings. Measured and explained the company ordering and installation process in clear detail. Had a second person from their own company come out and verify measurements for accuracy as part of their normal process. From sales, to office, to installation regular feedback received and we are very satisfied with windows now they are installed. From initial consultation to install period of about 6-8 weeks maintained contact and when installed were extremely professional and cleaned up after themselves. Could not be happier with Folkers Window Company! Will definitely use for any future window needs.

The entire job was top quality from start to finish. They gave us an estimated time for window arrival and installation and met their deadline. Crew was very professional. Service was followed up with a call from Clark (estimated window job) to make sure we were satisfied. If every home improvement project was completed this way i would be a happy camper!! As soon as I can afford it I will have my French doors replaced. They did an excellent job.

Your positive review of our sales and installation capabilities was appreciated. One reason why our prices are slightly higher in some cases, is because we pay our installers a bonus for each installation, if there are no call-backs from any of their projects, due to a crew deficiency, We find this provides a personal incentive for our installers to make sure that they take the time and effort to get everything right, the first time, every time. We appreciate your business,' Jay Lunt (President, L.E.I.)

Work is still on hold due to unforseen structural rot issues. Hope to resume in 4-5 weeks, after sub-contractor completes his work. As for Folkers Window Co., their work has been exemplary. They have installed 10 of 12 units and then all of their work has been put on hold waiting on our insurance to process our claim. Folkers Window Co. has been extremely cooperative about the delay. More Later.

Unfortunately wall/window frame rot can be a consequence of windows/doors that were not sealed properly with the exterior wall surfaces or were properly caulked, but with a water based sealant that has a limited flexible life period, after which the caulk shrinks, hardens and the resulting voids in the weather-seal can now allow moisture intrusion to occur. The Folkers Window Co.uses 35 year silicone-based caulk to ensure that the weather seal will last. We're ready to finish, when you're ready. We appreciate your supportive comments.
