We just had a houseful of new windows installed. A few months later (we don't live in house yet) we noticed one of the garage windows was broken. Milgard did not hesitate to send out a repair crew right away. Very happy with service, quality, value.

I had a sliding glass door that moisture had gotten into. I called and they sent 2 technicians out to the house. They looked at the window went out to the truck and brought in a new piece of glass. They took the door outside, took it apart and replaced the glass in about 25 minutes. They did a great job on cleaning the glass. too.

In 1999 we had our windows replaced with double pane and our contractor recommended Milgard windows and the promise to replace if there was ever a problem with them. So we chose Milgard and are pleased after all this time they remained true to their promise. On April 13th a representative came out and replaced two panes that had lost their seal. Thank you very much.

I have at least 5 windows in my home that have failed. They have a white film on the inside and every few months a new one will fail. I walked my neighborhood and every single house has the same issue. I called Milgard and they say my Warranty is expired, I asked them what the lifetime warranty on their website means then? They say I am out of luck and I have to pay to replace all these windows!!!

Hi Valeda - I'm sorry to hear about your disappointment in the warranty. It applies to the person who purchases the windows. It's unfortunate that the previous owners of your home did not mention that to you. All warranty details are available on milgard.com. If you need assistance, please let me know at social@Milgard.com. Thank you.

We were advised to purchased Milgard based on the excellent customer service, and we are so glad we did! We have been very impressed with the detail and thoroughness. Aaron who came to do the repairs was knowledgeable and skillful. I would recommend Milgard without hesitation.

I had an issue with a Milgard patio door. The screen part of the door would not operate properly. I called Milgard and they wanted me to troubleshoot, so I did. Did not work. I called back and they sent me to a video, which I watched and again attempted to do what the video said, which happened to be the same thing I had already done. I am a good sport so I tried again. It did not work. I called and they said they would send a new screen to their local service rep and I would hear from them in about 10 days.
This is where it got very frustrating. Several weeks later I called and left a message on the customer service voicemail, no response. I called the following week and left another message, no response. The following week, I finally got somebody and they said yeah it shipped but we can’t track it. So we will figure out what happened and call you back later in the day. No call back. I called two days later and they said they would ship a new one and service rep would contact me and install on a specific date. They also said they would send me an email with the contact info for service company... Never did. The install was three weeks away. So now we are several months from the initial service call.
I called the week of the schedule service call and spoke to lady who was not so friendly. Explained the story and just wanted to confirm the service call. She told me I had talked to new people and that I must be wrong about the lack of returned calls (I was not) and she does not know why any emails did not go out and could not tell me what happened. Service rep ended up showing up with the screen door. Installed in about three minutes. Then he measured the other door (not sure why he would do this, unless it is a regular issue) and said "yep, the door they shipped you was almost an inch too tall." If they would have just sent me the door two months ago I could have installed it and enjoyed the spring weather. Very disappointing.

Hi Justin - I'm so sorry to hear about that. We are always striving to make improvements to our processes and I will be sharing your feedback with the service team to make sure we do our best the next time you need us.

Two of the Milgard French doors had defects when installed. They set and emailed me a service date and time without talking to me. When I called them a months before the service date, they told me they come to Stevenson Ranch, CA only on Thursdays. Even when I told them I have to go to work Thursdays and I have no one to stay home it did not matter to them. They gave me a take it or leave it attitude. I said, "Ok I will ask my neighbors if they could stay for me." I couldn’t get my neighbors to help me out so I requested off from work for that day and stayed home. Nobody called me nobody showed up to fix the defected doors. So I called Milgard just to be told that the service date has been changed to another day. The worst part of it is they told me that I am the one who called and changed it. Which I did not do. Again it is another Thursday or no service at all. One of the worst customer service experience I ever had.

I had a fogged window replaced that went bad before the house was finished. The process of getting it done and the lack of knowledge of the office staff is poor, time from request until installation was 7 months and they would try to schedule on a day of pouring down rain to replace a window that is 5' x 7' and with a 12 hour notice for me. Also they wanted a number that was supposed to be in the upper corner, I searched but could not find anything. I told them I had the original paperwork as I am the contractor, they didn't want that. They scheduled a technician to come out on Dec.26, what is the likelihood I would be there on that date. When he did finally come out he said OH it is a curved top window, they don't have the number in the corner, yet they refused the original order I offered with all the info. I wanted to give 2.5 stars because the field technician deserves a 5 and the rest of the operation deserves zero.

I reported a problem with the slider screen door to my distributor. The appointment for a rep was scheduled for a month and a half later. No one called to confirm or to even ask what the problem was. I am a contractor and this was for a rental house so I was kind of put out that it was scheduled so far out. The rep came out and was very nice, helped eliminate the problem, and we were done. The problem turned out to be a very minor adjustment that could have been handled over the phone had someone decided to call and talk to me.

Since 1994, I have replaced most all of my windows and doors with Milgard products. My beach cottage was built in 1911, so it was a big decision to change out the old wood windows. However, I am completely satisfied with the products and service from Milgard. I have only had two windows fail and one hardware issue. Milgard promptly honored their lifetime warranty. The service technicians have been on time, courteous and they have always cleaned up perfectly. I would recommend Milgard to anyone.

Requested for a technician to come out and see why my window seal was leaking water when it would rain sideways on my window and two other windows were hazy like moisture was between the glasses. Technician didn’t come till almost 5pm and when he showed up it wasn’t raining and hadn’t rained for a few days. He told me that the windows were made not to leak and that it was impossible for them to leak. He also told me that the haze between the glasses was due to the roof leaking, when there’s no evidence to support his accusations. He didn’t even inspect the window seal and said there was nothing he could do and left without doing anything.
I waited a month for a technician to come out and he did absolutely nothing and my windows are still hazy and I’ve had to put tape over the outside of the window frame to keep it from leaking. In my opinion the technician seemed to be at the end of his shift and just wanted to go home and didn’t want to investigate the issue. I wouldn’t recommend Milgard to anyone.

The first worker who came out to see my window solved 1 of the 2 problems and wrote it up to solve the 2nd. He warned me that the office was not very on top of things and I should follow up a certain day with a call. Then he quit working for them. Either he never turned in the work order or they lost it. The second group of workers came out to evaluate the problem and write up an order for a replacement. All these guys had been telling me the office would call and update me. Updates came via email or not at all except for 1 confirmation call that the first work order had not been located, after I inquired. The final product was perfect, and I'm thankful for it, but I really did have to advocate for myself and keep tabs on things.

I give their service group a single star, but after six attempts to replace a simple fixed pane of a window, I would prefer giving them a -5. I requested a service request from the Milgard website for a fixed pane that was shattered. The appointment took approximately 6 weeks from request date. Milgard emailed me a couple days before and included the service tech info and a two hour window. The day before the appointment Milgard called and revised the two hours for the service tech arrival. Service tech was fast and efficient but they made the wrong window to fit into the fixed pane. That was in October of 2017. The service tech assured me that he would note the correct replacement pane and I could call and reschedule the install, another two months another service tech another wrong window.
The third time I called to confirm the replacement window being manufactured at the Simi Valley location. The Milgard rep assured me that they have the original order of the Essence window and have made it correctly this, the third time. "Okay great", I say, "but this is the third time, you understand why I would like some proof, like a picture or someone actually looking at the order before scheduling a service tech", and before I have to stay home from work. That was in Jan 2018, Milgard has made two more attempts, except the last two attempts are not cancelled until the appointment time is reached. So they called me and apologize and give no real reason why it could take Six times to make the correct window.
I asked to speak with a manager, and received, "Oh she is not available but you can leave a VM." I leave a voice mail and suggest they come take the bad pane out, bring it to the factory and use it as a guide to make the new one. I received no reply, I call again, funny no manager is available, but you can leave a VM. This is mad, how can you run a business when none of the workers have any accountability?

Jim, the Milgard installer, was professional, prompt, and amazing. He answered all our questions and did a fantastic job installing new glass on 3 out of the 7 recently purchased Milgard awning windows. His service was outstanding. We love our Milgard windows, but must admit that your lifetime warranty covering limited or specific things on the Ultra series windows needs to be reevaluated. If a baseball shatters an Ultra window, Milgard will replace it for free, no questions asked and that's a terrific warranty to have. That's why we also wanted to invest in Milgard windows and their fantastic product. However, if scratches appear on the glass due to the environment, weather related or by an unknown cause, this is not covered.
Our 7 Milgard windows were brand new-only 5 months old - and we didn't know if this was a defect in the glass or not. We were completely honest when contacting Milgard about just finding the damage to 3 scratched windows and stated we did not know how the scratches got there. Upon first inspection and after unboxing the windows, the scratches were not visible. A Milgard supervisor at the company's main office told us they would not cover this damage though they did offer us a 50% discount. The cost was $700 to replace the 3 glass panels on our new standard bathroom windows due to the scratches. We wanted beautiful windows again so we paid the $700 bill. Milgard's warranty should cover damages such as this - without the customer searching for a baseball. Thank you for understanding our position - we still love our Milgard windows!

I was having a problem with the sliding glass door and could not get a hold of the contractor that installed my Milgard windows and door. He has disappeared because after many weeks of messages still no response. I called your company and discovered that Tom ** the contractor never registered my Milgard purchase and the lady was extremely kind and registered them for me. She informed that I have a guarantee and they sent out your employees.
When they arrived they told me that my door was not a Milgard door and they checked 3 windows on the first floor and told me they were Milgards. So I guess the contractor did not sell me all Milguard products just the windows. I have a 2 story home with 5 bedrooms, living room, kitchen and 3 bathrooms and bought all of these windows and of course the back sliding door. I guess I got duped and still have problems with that door where the runner on the bottom is broken and the lock doesn't work any longer. Your employees couldn't tell me what brand it is and I have to find somebody else now to see if I can have it fixed. FYI your windows are beautiful and I have had no problems with them.

Needed to replace three stationary windows that experienced water seepage into the dwelling. Appointment was kept perfectly. Work done quickly and with very little mess. My only complaint was that some of the trim pieces got dented in the process of removing them before the removal of the old windows. The trim pieces themselves had scale on them from the water leakage. They were not replaced, and together with the fact they were dented during the job, I believe they should by all accounts have been replaced as well. Attached photos were taken before the job, but show the scale on the trim.

We purchased a patio sliding door because we were told that Milgard offered a great product. We decided that this was going to be an investment in our home. So we thought long and hard about upgrading and wanted more of the bells and whistles included in our purchase. By that I mean we purchased the slider with the mini blinds in between the glass and we upgraded to the automatic closing screen door. That was the worst mistake. Both functions have failed!
So you ask what is the problem? Well, the screen door was a nightmare to operate from the beginning. We placed a call and had your representative come out only to tell us that is was not covered or warranted through Milgard. Odd, right? Since we were lead to believe that Milgard offered lifetime warranties on their products. Not so, and very misleading. Milgard told us we would have to pay out of pocket if we wanted to install a regular screen door. We purchased the item through Home Depot and they were not willing to meet us half-way or offer any type of discount yet they did not have one on the floor to test the functionality of the auto closing screen door.
Also, the track is now cracked and we rarely use this door nor do we have any children. We are two senior adults and if this is a true picture of Milgard quality I will be sure to let our community know. Now, just to add more misery from Milgard the mini blind mechanism is malfunctioning too. What is up with your products? At this point, we are completely dissatisfied with Milgard and I hope that Milgard plans on making this right. If not I will be taking this up with our Visa insurance policy. I hope to hear from Milgard within the next 24 hours. Thank you.

The warranty replacement process is very lengthy and frustrating. 6-8 weeks between each phase of the warranty process. 6 weeks to get a tech to come out and look at the problem; another 6 weeks to schedule the appointment, another 6 weeks to get the technician out to do the work. Oh yes, if it is pouring rain they plan to remove the windows without putting plastic over the window holes, or on the floor, so it was another 6 weeks. The process took 6 months from start to finish. If you complain, they leave and it is another 6-8 weeks to get them back out. We had 4 out of 7 windows leak and discolor to the point where you could not see out of them.

The 2 - 3'x 6'-8'' panes of glass that were replaced was in a wood framed opening. The warranty person from Milgard took the wood jambs apart and replaced the 2 panes of glass with new ones. He didn't replace the wood jambs to apply pressure to the glass to seat the glass to the caulking. 1 window didn't seal at all, so I removed this window and cleaned all of the caulking from the jamb and areas of the glass then reset the pane of glass into the opening then installed the jamb to apply pressure to the glass. The person from Milgard warranty should have put the wood jambs back into place to apply pressure to the caulking and at least try to put the windows back together like they were before he started the work. I spent 3 hours on 1 window and will need to finish putting together the other window as it was before he took them apart. The owner was not happy with the performance that they received.

Then 6 weeks later at the appointment time (already had taken off work and Milgard had confirmed appt) we were contacted at the time Milgard should have arrived to learn the windows were not ready. We waited another week or so. The 3 windows arrived. None of them fit, again. The installer (same guy who measured them) then spent over an hour "making" them fit by shaving down the frames as we both knew that if he measured them a 3 third time they would again arrive the wrong size. Incredibly disappointing for such a high-cost window. Would not recommend.

When the installation was complete I was showed by installer that the door would not close and lock because the panel was bowed. Preferred Glass installer Auotro showed me if I put my hand in between the two panels and pull out while closing door it would close all the way and I could lock it. But I was to be sure to pull my hand out right before it closed so I wouldn't smash my fingers??? Milgard called me at the end of the day and said they would send repairman on 2/20/2018.
2/20/2018 Repairman Hector came and tried to bend the panel back but he made it worst. He tried to show me the same procedure how I could close and lock door by pulling panels apart and closing at same time but to be careful not to smash hand in-between panels. This must be a common problem if two different companies have same fix. 2/21/2018 I called Milgard because I got no call back from them. I asked for Supervisor and left a voice mail to Paul (Simi office) about my safety concern and that I wanted a new panel because I was not confident that Hector didn't damage door more. 2/22/2018 I received a call back from Paul and we discussed that I wanted a new panel.
2/26/2018 Paul from Milgard called and new panel would be installed on 03/02/2018. 3/02/2018 Milgard repairman came out and brought wrong size panel. He brought standard size and I have French Door style. I left very angry voicemail to Paul from Milgard and Scott from Preferred Glass. 3/02/2018 Receptionist from Milgard called and apologized that she ordered wrong window and they would have someone out 03/9/2018. 3/09/2018 Same repairman came back. Changed panels and as he was cleaning window he saw a big scratch going across the top of glass. I called Paul Milgard later that afternoon screaming!!! 3/14/2018 Anna from Milgard called and said new glass ordered and could be installed 4/26. I said no. It needs to be sooner so date scheduled for 04/05/2018.
So that leaves us to today 04/05/2018. Mark Milgard repairman came out and I had him measure glass before he took panel apart and it's the wrong size. The order is correct but the person putting on truck put wrong one on. So Milgard has been out to my house 4 times and each time it is a circus of mistakes. So as of 04/05/2018 my brand new patio door is not right and has NEVER been right.

Because we would be doing extensive traveling, we decided to wait until after winter to take care of this. During that time and now, we have an additional three windows that have the same failed seals (all slider type).
For information purposes we have 12 full size windows (slider and stationary sides), 7 sets of french doors (two each), 3 bath/shower windows, 6 single crank style windows, and 2 front door stationary sidelight windows. All of the problem windows have been the full size slider/stationary type and since taking ownership as mentioned above we now have 9 failures of slider or stationary windows in the 12 full size window sets. That is almost 38% of that type of window. The crank outs, bath windows, french doors and sidelites experienced no failures.
I believe this is an inordinately high percentage of window failures which speaks to inferior quality and workmanship. I am aware of this same issue in the Del Webb Development in Lincoln California, where 6500 homes were built and where we previously lived as well as others that have posted on this site as well as many other internet complaints. I would therefore appreciate your reviewing our situation to see what can be done to provide some satisfaction to a frustrated customer.

Hi Michael - I'm so sorry to hear about your frustration. Can you email me at social@milgard.com so I can get your contact information and look into this for you? Thank you.

We had a couple dings and scratched door handle for our patio door due to shipping damage. The service team replaced it all and it looks like new. The team arrived on time. My only negative comment about the service is the fact that it is hard to find a time slot and I spent quite some time on hold waiting for the Hollister customer service.

We purchased an upgraded window. The latch on the movable and fixed portions of the window were factory misaligned so it would not latch secured, and the frame was fractured in the lower corner. It took many tries to contact Milgard and two visits over several months by a rep to get a replacement.

The service from the lock repair is good, and professional. Happy with it. But the wait from the date reporting the lock problem to the date the serviceman came is too long: almost one month 26 days exactly. Cannot lock the exterior door for the whole time.

We are the second homeowners and this home was built in 2005. Our Milgard windows are terrible... many do not work properly but by far the worst problem are the markings in-between the double pane glass. This goes WAY beyond cloudiness. There are circles inside some of them and on others it looks like someone has taken a highlighter to them. These are defective. Repeated and multiple calls for service are either ignored or they send you a complicated sheet to complete prior to ever talking with a person. I strongly recommend that if you are in the market for new windows you stay FAR AWAY from Milgard.

Hi Jen - I'm so sorry to hear about your frustrating experience. The warranty extends 10 years from the date the home was sold to the original homeowner, so, your warranty would no longer be valid at this time. We can provide a list of dealers who can assist you. If you would like to receive this, just email me at social@milgard.com. Thank you.

We used Milgard Windows when we built our house FOURTEEN years ago. We recently noticed 3 tiny holes (like a BB) on the INSIDE of the window. We contacted the vendor who sold us the windows and they gave a quote to replace the window - almost $500. Then I called the local Glass Doctor who came and looked at the window and remarked that I should contact Milgard, as the windows are warrantied. I did and Milgard was GREAT. They came out, replaced the window, no issues. Thank you! I'm so happy we have these windows.

I am really pleased with the Milgard Service we receive. With Milgard, there is no question of whether they will fix the problem, either in or out of warranty. As a Contractor, my customers just need to call the customer service number and Milgard will come out and measure the windows, replace the windows and if the windows are out of warranty or not covered because the person is not a first homeowner, Milgard will still help you for a fee. So easy, so helpful.

So easy to work with. Made an appointment online, they emailed to confirm, then called again with specific hours. Put in a work order to replace the panel, no questions asked. A month later, two crew members came in and replaced it in less than 30 minutes. The entire process from my online request to the new panel being installed was about eight weeks. Not bad, considering it was warranty work!

Warranty issue- waiting since Oct 2017 to have window replaced. Before I bought my house, the original owner called the warranty department to have a window replaced that was placed by Milgard. This was Oct. 2017 when she called. When I called and spoke to the "service representative" of the warranty department, they scheduled an appt for me to have the window replaced in March, 5+ months from the original call. This was ridiculously a long of a time to have one window replaced, but I agreed to the appt and understood that they may have been busy.
Plus, I was on the "cancellation list" according to them, but never heard back. However, there should be some flexibility to accommodate a sooner appt for me. Especially when, according to Milgard, there are workers that "volunteer" to work some weekends. Even though, I am not a paying customer, they should stay loyal to the work they have done and the warranty they support.
At any rate, my appt for mid March (March 19th) came around and of course, they had the wrong size window. The technician said the office would get a hold of me within a couple days to reschedule and they did. He also said that I should not have to wait too long to have it replaced because it was their fault. Not to my surprise, the "soonest" they had available was June 4th for me. So, again, that's another 2 1/2 months of waiting to get my one, small window replaced. At any rate, I called today 3/28 around 2:55 pm and a lady that answered my call was impatient, had poor customer service skills and very rude. When I complained about having to wait 7 months to have one window replaced she gave me a laundry list of excuses of how busy they are, "we lost two workers because they were in accidents" and how they had people waiting in their waiting area to get interviewed.
Then she went on of how short staffed and that squeezing me in or accommodating an appt for me seemed unrealistic and how "it's unethical to move someone else's appt for you". Just when I asked to speak to some with better phone manners, she hung up on me. When I called back seconds later, Amber answered the call and was very pleasant, helpful, courteous and gave me 3 options (not excuses) that could possibly work for me. Of course, my original call of around 2:55 pm was not "logged in" for obvious reasons. This was probably not her first issue with clients. I don't understand how it's ethically right to have someone wait 7+ MONTHS to have one, small, breakfast nook window replaced. I highly would have avoided my initial contact with them if I knew it would be this long of a process. Now I feel that I am at least owed a sooner appt to say the least!

We bought a condo in 2016, with clearly defective windows. The previous owner told us that the windows had a lifetime guarantee and could be replaced, he just hadn't bothered to have them replaced as this was a second home and he didn't spend much time here. Many of our neighbors have the same defective windows, and several of them have gotten theirs replaced. However, Milgard will not replace our defective windows because according to them a lifetime warranty on their windows only applies to the original owner (not even the original purchaser, because these windows were purchased by our HOA, not the previous owner); the warranty does not stay with the windows, like a proper product warranty should.
It makes absolutely no sense that we should have to pay to replace our windows that are so clearly defective. Defective product replacement cost should come out of the pocket of the business, not the consumer. And when we made this point to customer service, we were met with mocking words and hostility from several different employees we spoke with. Save yourself a lot of money, time, and frustration and purchase your windows from a better company.

Hi Nancy - I'm so sorry to hear about the experience you had talking to the service team. The warranty is for the person who purchases the windows and that should have been communicated to you in a clear and respectful way. I apologize if that did not occur when you called. If you have any further questions, I can be reached at social@milgard.com. Thank you.

We purchased 21 Milgard windows in January 2018- 5 of the 21 were incorrect- not as ordered and had to be re-ordered. Three of the remaining windows were installed and we discovered that 1 was missing weather stripping; 1 was missing a tilt latch and 1 had a faulty casement lever. It is now March 13th and these issues have not been resolved and we have been informed that the scheduled service appointment for tomorrow cannot take place as they do not have the missing parts. We have tenants in place and the window without the latch FELL OUT of the frame onto the arm of a family member 2 weeks ago. Another family member with a 6 week old infant in her arms was sitting on the sofa also. Despite multiple contacts with customer service and letters sent to management they are unable or unwilling to resolve these issues. This is dangerous and unacceptable.
Updated on 03/22/2018: I wrote my initial review on March 13th regarding the window installation that occurred on Jan 11, 2018- today the Milgard technicians finally arrived- and did NOTHING! They arrived without the weather stripping or replacement lever cover for the casement window but more importantly they did not fix the window missing the tilt latch (the part that they have claimed for the past month was on "back order"!) because it is a part that is welded in and requires an entirely new lower window! This despite our being required to document all issues in writing and send photos with the original service request (case#**) on January 24th. Either this company is totally deceitful or incompetent or both.
I have not received a single response from the management regarding any of these issues despite my sending letters to company President/ CEO/ Director of After Market Customer Service and the Continuous Improvement Manager- or the online representative who seems to have responded to many other complaints submitted on this website. Meanwhile, we still have a lower window without a tilt latch that falls out unto the floor! Unbelievable!

I am a builder and have been using Milgard Window products for over 30 years. I recommended Milgard to my clients for their brand new custom home and it has been a nightmare. For over a year, and 8+ site service calls, repairs, replacements, finally all the window glazing had to be replaced. There is some sort of quality control, vinyl material issue with the SDL (Simulated Divided Lights) the applied grid process. We had issues with the applied vinyl grids expanding and contracting with the heat/cold of the day.
The applied grids would expand to the point that it would expand off the glass onto the vinyl window frame, and contract on the glass and leave gaps at the top and bottom of the window frame. My client wanted the SDL grid pattern appearance, and now had to settle with the Sculptured grids between the glass because the issues and problems could not be resolved. Presently we are waiting for a refund for the up-grade charge for the SDL grids from the Sculptured grids between the glass, but we (Vendor, Contractor and Owner) are not getting a response from Milgard Windows. I am hopeful that Milgard will live up to their obligation to refund funds due the owner for product not received.

Despite the other reviews listed here, I have not had any of those problems with Milgard. Some neighbors, however, have window issues with other manufacturers, and they will blame the installer and the installer blames the manufacturer, and there is seldom a positive outcome. Not so with Milgard. My windows and doors are 17 years old, and still look and operate like brand new. Recently I did have a stationary glass in a sliding door and a kitchen window lose its seal causing the panes to turn mottled green. For warranty claim, I called Milgard and was transferred to my local Milgard office. (Not a window dealer, but corp office. Milgard itself handles all claims and repairs, you don't go through the dealers, a good thing.)
They took the information, set up an appt 3 weeks from now to replace the glass door and window, plus adjust/replace some worn rollers on a few so they glide open/close with just one finger. This IS the best window company and the BEST WARRANTY in the business. Compare warranties with other manufacturers and you will quickly see the difference. Ask any window dealer which company has the best warranty and which stands behind the product. Even if they don't sell Milgard, they know nobody services their windows like Milgard. Their warranty is straightforward, no wiggle words, and fits on one sheet of paper, unlike most others due to all the legal jargon.

Thanks Bryan. I'm so pleased to hear about your wonderful warranty service. It's our pleasure to serve you. Thanks again for choosing Milgard.
