Description of Work: TC Window replaced large original windows on back of my 1957 1-story ranch. It was a challenging project that was expected to require both interior and exterior repair. Because of their meticulous effort, there was literally no repair work needed to the interior walls. The exterior work was beautifully done with no obvious patching even though new cedar siding had to be integrated with the existing. The windows were custom Anderson. The only hiccup in the project was due to an error at the factory, which was corrected and installed with little interruption. Service was great throughout the process from estimate to finish. Because I commute across the metro, I had to leave access to my home in the hands of the sales rep and the crew. Very trustworthy. I would recommend TC Window highly and would certainly have them back for other work.

I needed replacement windows (double hung) for old casement windows. I went online to research different window manufacturers and chose Lindsay Windows out of North Mankato, Minnesota. I was referred to Twin City Window ( http://www.twincitywindow.com ) In all of my 28 years of owning my home, Twin City Window is the most Professional and Legitimate company I have worked with. Mike, my contact for the initial home visit was very pleasant, informative and the encounter was very low stress. (No high pressure tactics). The windows I chose were custom windows, which took approx. 3 weeks and I was kept informed of the status by Mike via e-mail and phone throughout the process. The appointment was set up for installation and the installer Rick; arrived promptly and was also very professional and pleasant. The attention to detail and workmanship was of the utmost quality! Overall, I could not have made a better decision on my choice of windows and as far as Twin City Window, they will be receiving and further business I may have in the future. They will be foremost in my mind for any recommendations. Mark O'Brien Bloomington, Minnesota
Twin City Window was much more honest than CRI. They were honest about the Lindsay Windows and quoted us a fair price. The installation team got the entire job done in one day and did a fairly good job. The only complaint I have is they didn't do as thorough of a job cleaning the window openings before installing new windows as I would have liked. They also didn't return my phone call when I had a leak happening at one of the windows which was resolved on my own. They responded claiming they returned with an email, but I don't think I got it. It's OK though. It was a good experience with them. I liked that they went over with us about the technicality of our windows thoroughly before leaving. They did a good job cleaning up before leaving. They seemed like a legitimate company and I hope the best for them.
Description of Work: Replaced 9 Windows with new Lindsay Pinnacle Windows and a sliding door.

We were happy to provide this customer with great windows at a fair price. We were not aware that he would have preferred we wash the window frames before installing the new windows. The leak was cased by an ice dam on the roof and was followed up on via email. We appreciate the good review. Thanks.

We dealt with Rick Nyquist (owner) who was very pleasant to deal with and wanted to go with him but found that he had let his general contractor license expire. I wanted a permit pulled for my window replacement and he said that he worked with a guy who would pull the permit for him and we went forward signing a contract and writing a check for the down payment. A week and a half letter we received a letter explaining that he decided not to take our job with my check returned. Upon calling him he explained that his coworker with a license didn't feel comfortable working with him on my job. A call from Rick when he made this decision would have been nice instead of allowing me to think the window ordering was in the works. I can't comment on the quality of his work but be advised he is not licensed and cannot pull a permit for work he performs.

Response from TWIN CITY WINDOW REPLACEMENT CO
We chose not to do this job because the customer seemed to be difficult to work with and the city was hesitant to issue a permit to install awning windows that didn't meet the egress code. We are delighted however that to find a serious complaint against us you have to talk to someone we didn't work for. He is correct about the expired license. We failed to submit the stack of required papers (forgot the proof of continuing education required) by the March 31st deadline and our license lapsed. That has of course been remedied.

We had nothing but a great experience with Rick Nyquist and Twin City Window Replacement, Co. Rick is extraordinarily friendly, responsive and empathetic. His product is superior, everything was installed perfectly and there was no debris of follow-up work necessary. But the topper is that his prices were unbelieveably lower than the other companies we had bid on the work, as much as 30% lower! I highly recommend Rick and Twin City Window Replacement and assure you you won't be disappointed!!
