Everything went very well. I signed the contract in February and it took approximately 5 weeks to have the windows created at the factory and delivered. This was good for me since I did not want them installed during the coldest part of winter. There were 2 tradesmen who did the entire job in 2 days. They were very efficient and did excellent, quality work. They cleaned up after they left and I had no complaints. Their price was very competitive and the windows seem to be a good quality.
Description of Work: I had 1 picture window, 5 double hung windows, 2 casement windows, 1 awning window and 1 sliding window installed. Screens were included. All were vinyl windows with 10 year warranty.

We contacted this company due to their ability to strip and replace certain parts of the door frame. The only draw back was their limited selection of doors which they made up for by their ability to work with the door frames.

Jim (the owner) came out twice to give us estimates. The new window arrived quickly and the crew installed it in one day -- chipping their way through ice and snow in the backyard to do it. Installers were punctual, friendly and neat. Everything went smoothly. The window looks fantastic.

They needed a lot of prodding. It may not have been their fault. I ordered the windows. They installed them pretty quickly once they came. Two of the windows were wrong though and they had to get them replaced. They put in the order but 3 or 4 months later they still hadn't gotten replaced. They told me that the manufacturer lost the order but they didn't follow up. I had to. I just thought they should be more pro active.
Description of Work: They replaced 6 vinyl thermal pane windows on the west side of my house.

The two men arrived on time, went right to work and finished the job in about 5 and a half hours. They were polite, neat and barely talked to each other except about measurements and work things. They certainly seemed to know exactly what to do. Also keep in mind that they were doing the installation in the end of January and it was 50 degrees out when they started. By evening, it was 0 degrees with white out conditions so they were under a weather deadline! I was inside, warm and toasty looking out at the snow through my new windows. Great timing! I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: They removed 5 windows and framing (inside & out) and put in 1 picture window and 3 double hung windows in my TV room. They also replaced 1 double hung window in my bedroom. They re-framed the inside with oak trim, built new outside frames and capped all of the outside frames with aluminum cladding as well as 6 glass block basement windows. One of the glass blocks frame was rotted out and they rebuilt that as well.

Once the doors finally came in, due to holidays, we scheduled for them to come in. Only problem was that we were not informed when doors arrived, we had to call and check, therefore causing slight scheduling issues. Storm and entry doors were installed with no problems. The service guys were professional and friendly and the job only took a few hours. We were very pleased with the work.
Description of Work: Removed old storm and entry front doors. Installed new storm and entry front doors.

Jim Nelligan provided the initial estimate for replacing the window. There was no sales pressure and he was able to provide a written estimate on the spot. The window arrived within the promised time frame and scheduling installation was easy. The installers, Dave and Dan, were highly professional and we were blessed by a 65 degree day in January! Both Dave and Dan were very careful laying tarps and removing my expensive window treatments; they were very considerate of my needs and possessions. The install went smoothly and they did an excellent job on the window trim as well. After, they cleaned everything up and I have a gorgeous brand new window, even better since now it's below zero. Thanks Thermalcraft!

Jim came out and gave a estimate and explained products, very personable and no pressure. I stopped by the store to get an apples to apples comparison from another contractor, very helpful. I contacted Thermalcraft and Jim came out to the house to make sure we were on the same page. Jim told me in 8-10 weeks somebody would contact me when materials were in and job ready to be started. Eight weeks later Barry called, said all was ready and they could start when I was ready. Workmen (2 guys) came to the house on 11/20, I gave them a key and my cell #, and they started. They finished job on 11/28 and did great work.
Description of Work: Replaced 11 windows with vinyl windows, resided the entire house, replaced soffit, fascia and gutters.

The window is in the process of being made to my specifications and will be installed in a few weeks. This is the 4th time I am using Thermalcraft because of their great service. Barry came out the next day after I called.
Description of Work: I contracted with Thermalcraft to replace a very, very large glassblock window on my 2-flat which opens the front stairwell to light from the 1st to 2nd floor with a doublehung with foggy glass and prairie style etching. Because my foundation is sinking here and there, the glass block windows have been breaking. Since I hate glass block windows, I am happy to replace them with more energy efficient and attractive windows.

Pros: Estimates can be scheduled late in the evening around 6PM. The salesman arrived on time and provided a very detailed estimate per window. Promptness: On both days the 2 man crew was promptly on time, and immediately began working. The Exterior window finishing was extremely well done. Cons: Scheduling of Work: The time between estimate and install was 8-10 weeks. There was very little communication during this time, and they didn't even call the day before to remind you they were coming out or tell you what time they were going to arrive. Demo: They used the front window being replaced as the opening to remove the debris from the removal process. This would have been fine but they crushed and killed 6 plants where they laid their tarp and then the demo debris. The interior side of the windows were scratched in numerous places. Touch up paint provided. They also provided zero support for the numerous bricks that were knocked loose from the removal of the old framing.
Description of Work: Install 13 double hung windows and one slider window into brick surrounds. This job included the removal of existing windows and framing, and re-installation of new framing, windows, exterior capping, insulation, and interior prep for dry way returns. It was a 1.5 day job.

Excellent. Barry wrote up the quote while he was here so I had an estimate immediately. The price was far below other window companies. I did my research and found that the quality of the windows were solid. The prices are 1/2 to 1/3 less than any other quote I received, and our windows look fantastic! We love the new windows so much, they are coming back to give us an estimate for bedroom windows this week!

I would have to be honest and say that this company was not our first pick, but because their product fit into our budget, they are the ones we chose to go with. I don't have any regrets about that. They have been very nice to work with and I would recommend them to others looking for a decent quality replacement window.
Description of Work: They consulted with us, measured, ordered and did the installation of 12 new double hung, vinyl replacement windows and one picture window. They also capped a couple of existing window outside our home and offered an Angie's List discount.

Easy to contact, scheduled estimate quickly. Gave a written estimate before leaving. Seemed knowledgeable, arrived promptly. Windows would have taken 4-6 weeks to arrive. We decided to go with another company that was already doing some other work for us, but would consider them when replacing the rest of the windows.($2,500.00)

I obtained 3 estimates and their's was the best. They did have to come back to repair a torn window screen, but other than that, the experience went smoothly. They are professional, polite and easy to work with. The day of installation, they stayed after sundown to finish the job. I plan to use them again to replace the rest of my windows.

Everyone I dealt with was very professional and kind. The workers all showed up on time and were very respectful of my home. The window and door work well. My only complaint is that some of the caulking is a little sloppy- maybe that's the way it's suppose to be. I would hire them again.
