Hi Ms. [Member Name Removed]- I am only now seeing the message you sent to us. Angie's List used to notify us via text and email when we received a new message but they no longer provide this service. I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but we would be happy to provide you with a free estimate for your attic windows.

Description of Work: I contracted Essex to replace my 3 basement windows at a total install price of $717. I met with them early in January at which time I got a quote for the windows and installation. They asked for a deposit of $360 up front to order the windows. They called me last week to let me know the windows had arrived and asked when I wanted them installed. They were able to do the installation the following week. It only took about 2 hours for them to remove the old windows (leaving the existing frame in place since they were built into the basement wall) and install the new. The field technicians did a nice job and were very courteous while moving in and around my home. I would definitely recommend them to others.

Description of Work: We had Essex Window and Door come out to provide a quote for 33 windows for our home. The owner was very professional and presented us with several options and price points. We chose his high end product and were pleasantly surprised by his quote. His high end window product was priced lower than his competitors low end window products. We like the fact he has been in business for 30+ years and uses a local manufacture for his windows. We also like the fact that he was willing to come out and meet just my husband first; as we work different schedules; he even came back on a Sunday to sign the sales contract. Many other window companies refused to meet with us unless we could both be present. I look forward to updating after our installation, which is scheduled for Nov.

Dennis came out to evaluate my needs for a fire-rated apartment entry door as well as fixing the main door to the property. He didn't try to upsell on products or extras that I didn't need and was very easy to work with. The work was done on time and on budget. Would use again and refer to anyone who has door needs.

I am waiting for them to do some other work as well. They were great. Their guy, Dennis, came out to give me an estimate and was great to deal with. Every time I called him he called me right back. I had one little issue with the door and I called him today about it. He is having a guy come out Monday to take a look at it so he was pretty quick to have someone come out to take a look at it. They are going to start working next week on my front steps where I have a lot of concrete and bricks. They had the best price of three quotes I got.

He worked with me to match the lowest prices I had, even though he was using top-of-the-line Andersen windows. He took me to his supplier so I could see the windows close-up and ordered a sample to be mailed to me so I could check the product and color match. When his two-man crew began installation and I was unhappy with the color of the interior wood frames, he left his office immediately and was at my house to work out a solution, even though I live in Essex and he had to travel from Union county.He was always pleasant to deal with and his workers were skilled. Some of the interior frames, for example, had to be painted to achieve the color I wanted and that was done graciously and without additional charges. I am pleased with the final job and I highly recommend Dennis and his company. He is knowledgeable, professional, and honest.
Description of Work: Dennis Panza, owner, was one of many vendors who submitted a bid. Some bidders were part of a franchise and each sat at my dining room table and refused to give me a price until I listened to carefully rehearsed sales pitches - and long ones at that. Most had a ready-made product to show me and there was little or no adapting product to job.I requested wood windows and Dennis carefully explained my options. There was no canned speech and no sales pressure ("sign up now and I can give you a thousand off") He examined the sunroom in my 1929 house (he was the only contractor who noticed that one of the 11 windows was wedged open behind its storm window and got a ladder to fix it from the outside and he did this before I hired him). To replace the 1929 windows required interior woodwork and frames as well as exterior framing and repair where the old sill had rotted away and the brick had deteriorated.

They are fantastic. They are an extremely loyal company. If you are a repeat customer they give you a discount. Their work is good and if you are not happy, just call them back and they would fix whatever it is you did not like. The guy who did the front door, he knew what he wanted he worked till he got it that way. We have an old house and in summer the door shapes are not the coolest in creation. But it is an excellent company don?t leave them for anything. Their price is reasonable it was pretty up to par with whatever others were asking. Since I was a returning customer I got my 10% discount. He ordered the door. As a first time customer they ask for a set amount down and as a returning customer they don?t ask for quite so much. Ones you have established you are going to return as a customer you get a little more lee-way. In a timely fashion they came back with the door which they had ordered. They put the door in. I don?t know how long it took him. But my house is 100 years old and we keep it in good shape. It took him a little longer to do it exactly the way he wanted it to. He is a perfectionist. About the cellar door, they installed that last year. When we bought the house in ?79 and it was already 30 years old. The cellar door was old and rusted. They replaced it. Again as our house is odd sized they had to order it special. They put it in and did cementing of the sides. I had rain seeping in through the old door. So they built it up with cement a little so that the rains don?t seep in anymore. They do doors, windows and couple of other things and I would get them to do all that for my house because I am that happy with them. I recommend them to everybody.
Description of Work: I have used ESSEX REPLACEMENT DOOR & WINDOW CO INC twice. One time they installed a new storm front door and the other time they installed a cellar door.

Dennis, the owner, returned my call Saturday evening, which was the same day I called. When I told him I burned up 1/3rd tank of oil the previous week due to a poorly installed attic fan and only a half-insulated attic, he agreed to come look at the job Monday at noon. (I had just moved into the house and was unaware of these problems.) Dennis arrived on time and was very pleasant and professional. He inspected the fan and the attic, took measurements and discussed my options. I was in a hurry to resolve these problems and so Dennis called his insulation supplier and completed the estimate on the spot. Dennis gave me a price quote of $300 to build, insulate and install the box. The price for the partial roof insulation was $649. While I usually would price out a job with 2 other contractors, I decided to go with Dennis because the price seemed very fair and he had time to do the job that Wednesday. Dennis informed me that he would have Norbert, who worked with him for four years, come and do the work. Norbert arrived on time, did very good work and left my attic floor much cleaner than it had been. I was very pleased with the entire experience. P.S. I asked Dennis to go through the entire house, starting with the basement and make recommendations for doors, windows and insulation. He pointed out work that needed doing, gave me estimates and also informed me that some things I thought needed work were not really necessary. I definitely plan to use Dennis again when I am ready to do more work.
Description of Work: Built a removable insulated box to cover a 36" attic fan and insulated a large section of my attic.

Since our original contractor didn't do custom made doors or Bilco doors, we were just going to use Essex Doors and Windows to do it. After they gave us a very fair and reasonable estimate for the 4 doors, we decided to give the entire job to them. We wanted a front door with a mail slot and they accidentally ordered us one without. They quickly fixed the problem by ordering the matching mail slot. There was a communication problem between the owner and one of his workers when it came time to install it. They made an appointment with us on a Saturday morning to install the mail slot and they never showed or called. They wound up coming a few days later to install it. There was also a mix up of how much balance we owed them which we quickly resolved by advising them of the check number we had paid the down payment with. Regardless of the hiccups, I must admit this company does very good work. The installers cared about the job and how it looked and was responsive to any requests we might have had. We have not had any issues and lots of people have commented on how beautiful it all looks. We even had a handyman over recently and he commented on how well all the doors were installed. Outside of the mail slot issue, the owner was in constant contact with me keeping me up to date on everything.
Description of Work: The company replaced all the exterior doors and installed storm doors as well. In addition, they installed a custom made basement door and a replaced an existing Bilco door.

The president was the one that came. They told me it would take 3 or 4 weeks, and it took months. They never return phone calls (including the president and vice president) and aren't open every day. They didn't give instructions on what to do to paint or stain and said they did. They have always been very rude. They do not give straight answers. A year later, I am STILL trying to find out what to do with the sap spot so I can paint the door. It is an unfinished door, and it has to be baked to stain or paint it. They told me they always bake their doors, but mien has not been. It has been very unpleasant.
Description of Work: They installed my front door. I have a wider than normal, so it was special made to fit.

Response from Essex Replacement Door & Window Co Inc
I remember this customer well. First and foremost, I would like to say that we ALWAYS respond to our customers' correspondence. This customer had ordered a door from our canadian door manufacturer. We had originally told her that the door would take a minimum of four to six weeks to be manufactured. I believe it was ready in seven weeks. We had initially advised her against a wood door due to the fact that they are prone to the elements, more so than a steel or a fiberglass door. Our wood doors come un-finished so there is an extra fee to have them finished. She did not want to pay this fee despite the fact that we strongly advised her to do so. Over a year later she called and said that the door was secreting sap. This occurred because she did not initially finish the door. She had insisted on a refund for the door. This was not possible so we offered to finish the door at no additional cost despite the fact that her initial warrantee had expired. She declined this offer and that was the end of our communication with her. We go to great lengths to please our customers but despite our best efforts, she was not satisfied.
