Last fall, I was cold-called by three different companies trying to sell a combination of Tex-Coat…read morepaint, windows, and/or HVAC systems. I normally get pretty annoyed with telemarketers, but I happened to be in the market to begin renovations on my home, so I heard them all out and made appointments with all three for estimates. Company #1: Elite from Long Beach, Ca area was patronizing and disrespectfully tried to trick me into a crazy inflated quote, Company #2 flaked on their appointment and had to reschedule, and Northwest was #3. The salesman was respectful of me and let me guide the conversation with questions as opposed to forcing me to listen to a spiel. He worked out the prices of the 13 windows with upgrades including a pet door in my slider and this beautiful etched glass. His price was half of the 1st company, and he was also half as pushy. When Company #1 came back out to tried to convince me to go with them, the price was still way too high and he tried to bully me into a decision. When I refused to be bullied, he left, and I called my Northwest Rep back out and signed the contract. The installers were hardworking and respectful of my crazy house. They did a great job of installing the windows, though they did leave a few scraps of stuff behind, not a huge deal. My new Anlin windows are absolutely beautiful. I seriously walk by and stop to stare at them so often. There was a tiny scratch in one of them, and Northwest got in touch with Anlin and got us connected right away to have it corrected. I would definately advise people to use this company.

I don't know what has happened to this company in the last two years but it appears customer…read moreservice is now non existent. We have purchased a lot of windows and doors from Northwest Exteriors in the last 15 years for two separate residences without incident. It was the reason we kept coming back. Michelle always kept us apprised of timelines, delays, etc. She must no longer work for Northwest because they don't call and when you call them you're still without answers. We purchased a bifold door that took much longer than anticipated to ship and then be installed. After install, we were told we couldn't use the door because the wrong panel shipped and there is no door handle. That was a month ago. No one has answers, no return calls, nothing. I guess we just wait another 4 months until the correct panel arrives. Was going to order a 2nd bifold and a patio cover but will look elsewhere. It's too bad Northwest Exteriors!

One company didn't even bother to come out--just asked for measurements and sent a generic quote for basic Milgard windows. Another contractor did show up, but he was extremely pushy and basically demanded that I make a decision on the spot. He was also the most expensive of the three. Approved Contractor was the complete opposite experience. Their sales rep came out, took his time, was very relaxed and professional, walked me through all my options, and provided full license and insurance info. He left me with a written estimate and zero pressure. Their pricing came in right in the middle, but the service level made it the best value by a mile. Once my HOA approved the project, everything moved exactly on schedule. The windows were custom, and the team showed up within the four-week lead time they quoted. They installed all five windows in less than a day. They also removed the brand-new blinds I had just installed and put them back up perfectly--like they were never touched. Huge bonus. Communication was great the entire time. The installer met me in the morning so I could walk him through the space, and he called ahead before finishing so I could come back from the office, inspect everything, and sign off. The finished product looks fantastic. From the first phone call to the sales visit to installation day, the whole experience was smooth, honest, and professional. I'd absolutely recommend Approved Contractor Inc. if you're looking for quality window replacement without the pressure or runaround.

Their attention to detail was amazing and all of the little subtleties they added really made the difference. Circle Vents, small window corner siding and boxes for all electrical. Anytime I had a request and I'm a detail person, they responded with a smile and quickly addressed it. We also replaced our termite filled fascia with Hardie fiber cement material and they trimmed it out beautifully and now will last our lifetime.
