After saving for a couple of years, we finally were able to get new windows in our house!! Talk about a long drawn out process. After talking to and getting quotes for over seven vendors, we decided to go with Windows R Us in Tyler. We liked them because their customer service was AWESOME and they were very quick to answer our questions, via email as we requested instead of insisting on calling us on the phone, which always seemed to happen with the other guys at the most inopportune times. They also were cheaper than the next lowest bid by $1000 which you can't beat.
We got the Vista Brand Double Hung windows - which were very comparable to Pella, and the other brands presented to us. We also decided on doing double prairie grids which was a leap of faith b/c we hadn't seen the double prairie on any examples shown to us, but we love it!
On the large windows in the back of our house we decided to do something different. We went with what they call a three light slider. We were very pleased with the result. It really changed the whole look of the back of the house!
We also decided to do the opaque window in the the master bath. By doing this we don't have to worry with blinds and we get so much more light in there now!
Not only did it change the look of our house, but the feel of it too! We haven't gotten an energy bill to compare the difference, but we can already tell it helps so much! Our windows leaked quite a bit, especially in the play room and living area. All that waiting and saving paid off because now we have awesome new windows and no payment to make! :)
