WASCO Windows opened in Milwaukee in 1957 as Wisconsin Aluminum Supply Company, and was purchased by Dave Paulus in 1983. At that time, the company manufactured aluminum storm windows, siding and awnings. Under Paulus’ direction WASCO became the first company in this area to manufacture then-new vinyl replacement windows. Since 1983 the Paulus family has transformed WASCO into a company that leads the industry in manufacturing and installing highly energy efficient window products, engineered for Wisconsin’s unique climate.

It went very good. They are a very good company to deal with. They are not real high pitch when you go to deal with them. I checked into a couple of other places and they really pushed the product. Wasco installed the windows very efficiently and quickly. Their price was really good too. I was real happy with what we got.
Description of Work: They installed nine new windows on our house for us.

They are a locally based company and all of their employees seem to take a great deal of pride in the work that they do. They did a good job and cleaned up well when they were finished. They took away all of the old windows so that you couldn't even tell they had been there. I plan on having them back out soon to do some more replacement windows for me.
Description of Work: I am in the process of having Wasco replace all the windows on my home. They previously installed some as well as a door back in 2006, this time around they installed five additional double paned windows.

6 windows were replaced at my condo.
Description of Work: The work was not completed within the approximate completion date. I was not called to tell me that the installation would be delayed. When the windows were installed, 2 of the windows had the wrong color of grids (they were to be woodgrain but were white). Therefore, I had to wait another 6 weeks before the work could be completed.

The estimator, Jay, was courteous and informative. He answered all my questions and did not pressure me in any way. I brought my own measurements to the showroom and Jay wrote his quote. After thinking about it for several days, I called Jay to commit. He came to my house in early January to take exact measurements. I signed the contract and put money down. Jay told me the job would be scheduled around 3-1-07. I had concerns about caulking in sub-freezing temps, but I was able to talk to the expediter, Rick. He told me about the 2 brands of caulks they use. He explained they are commercial grade, can be applied down to 30 below, and form a chemical bond with the vinyl. I was able to research on the Web and verify. Dave (installer) came on 2-20, earlier than the estimated date. Dave did the entire job in about five hours. He was courteous and cleaned up very well. He hauled away my old windows and storms. Dave's craftmanship was superb. He is an artist with the caulk gun.
Description of Work: Replaced five double-hung windows in an old house (built 1924). The new windows are Wisconsin Poly-Tex double-hungs. Argon-filled, double-glazed with super spacer (all standard). Filled old ballast pockets with insulation. Wrapped exterior frames in aluminum and caulked.

The representative who came to the house, Jay Thresher, was very nice, very knowledgeable, and did not try a hard sell at all. Very low-key, which was appreciated. Unfortunately, we had two 18-inch wide casement windows that would lose 4" of glass with the vinyl replacement window. Jay said they would not be able to do a full replacement of the window in vinyl to keep the amount of glass approximately the same, unlike the Renewal by Andersen guy and Pella guy, who said they could. We ultimately ended up going with Pella replacements, because we wanted wood interior windows, but would have gone with Wasco if we went vinyl. THe vinyl price was about 40% cheaper than Pella.
Description of Work: I got a quote to replace nine windows (old, wood) with vinyl windows. These would be pocket replacement.

Dave & John were very prompt (10 minutes early!). They were obviously professionals, not just summer interns. They didn't mind me asking questions and were very courteous. They cleaned-up the work area very well, even bringing their own garbage cans. Dave even added a small piece of wood trim that was missing when I purchased the house.

Sales rep John was helpful & not pushy. Once order was placed, measuring & installation went smoothly. Appears to be a quality product, & they look & work nice too. Thinking of replacing more of my windows with them.
We were very pleased with the work. They took care to match the exterior paint trim color and worked quickly, completing the installation in one day. The workers were on time and courteous. The new windows provided immediate relief from the cold air drafts that we experienced with our old windows.

Very professional and knowledgeable on their products. John was very helpful in helping us choose styles, colors, etc., to match our home. Didn't mind our many follow up questions and was able to resolve them to our satisfaction. Great windows at reasonable price that met our needs exactly. They have a no pressure sales approach that we enjoyed because they were willing to show us options and styles but still adhere to our budget. We were able to replace all of the windows in our home at once as well as improve the curb appeal by adding a bay window in the front.

A good overall experience marred by a lack of communication about the time frame for the actual installation. Contract was accepted on 10/04/05 with the expectation the windows would be installed in 6 to 8 weeks. After 6 weeks I had not heard from Wasco so I called to find out when they might be installing the windows. I was told they had us penciled in for the week of December 4 but that it was still too early to confirm. Fine. On December 1 I received a letter from Wasco stating that because of Katrina their suppliers had cut them off and that they did not know when they would be able to install our windows. Understandable. We never heard another word from Wasco until I finally decided to call on January 5. Two minutes later they were suddenly able to install our windows on Monday January 9. When I asked if there was any sort mix-up, I was unable to get any explanation whatsoever. Disappointing.
Description of Work: Replaced two aluminum slider type windows and one aluminum double hung, with three vinyl double hung windows.

WE DID GET THREE ESTIMATES, AND FOUND THAT WASCO WAS THE MOST REASONABLE. WHEN I CALLED THE SALES REPRESENTATIVE, TOM, HE WAS ABLE TO COME TO OUR HOUSE AND GIVE A FREE ESTIMATE ON THE SAME DAY. HE DID THE ESTIMATE IN NOVEMBER OF 2004 AND DID SAY THAT THE APPROXIMATE COMPLETION DATE WOULD BE MID OR LATE JANUARY 2005. I HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS, SINCE WE NEVER HAD WINDOWS INSTALLED, AND TOM WAS VERY GRACIOUS TO ANSWER ALL OF THEM. ONE MINOR THING HE FORGOT TO TELL US WAS TO TAKE OUR CURTAINS DOWN, ALTHOUGH WHEN THE INSTALLERS CAME, THEY TOOK THEM DOWN FOR US. THE JOB WAS COMPLETED IN JANUARY WHEN BOTH MY HUSBAND AND I WERE AT WORK. IF NOT FOR THE CURTAINS THAT THEY TOOK DOWN IN ORDER TO INSTALL THE WINDOWS, YOU WOULD NEVER HAVE KNOWN THEY WERE THERE. THE HOUSE WAS CLEAN AND THE WINDOWS LOOKED FABULOUS! IN FACT, WE CALLED WASCO IN APRIL OF 2005 TO HAVE THEM REPLACE THE REMAINING WINDOWS IN OUR HOUSE.
Description of Work: INSTALLED 12 DOUBLE HUNG VINYL REPLACEMENT WINDOWS, TWO PICTURE WINDOWS, AND ONE DOUBLE CASEMENT. THE LOWER BATHROOM WINDOW WAS FROSTED, TWO PICTURE WINDOWS AND TWO KITCHEN WINDOWS WERE LIGHT WOODGRAIN COLOR AND FOUR SUNROOM WINDOWS WERE DARK WOODGRAIN COLOR. THEY ALSO ADDED A NEW STOOL (LEDGE) TO THE 2 PICTURE WINDOWS BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL WERE ROTTING. THEY HAULED AWAY ALL OF THE OLD WINDOWS WHICH IS INCLUDED IN THE PRICE.
