    Worst customer service, order was placed August of 2021, for french doors & sliding patio doors. Doors were not installed until December 2021, which was no big deal, possible what with COVID issues. One door had damage & they said they would replace the facing, also screens were backorder. lt is now more than a year since order placed & am still waiting for door repair & screens. They have NEVER even called me to discuss, only time l get communication with them is when l call them. There are always excuses from them & more promises to complete. l really-really regret that l paid in full on the day of the installation.

    We had done some research on windows and window replacement and had looked at some lower cost vinyl window options but wanted to explore better quality options. Renewal by Andersen gave us information and options to replace our clouded oversized window with a great new design that met all new code requirements. They also offered a higher quality product, with better warranties at an acceptable cost and we ultimately decided to go for it.

    At the start we were given realistic expectations of delivery given production delays post-pandemic. Knowing that we were getting a window specifically manufactured to out exact measurements was more important to us than the wait time. And happily our window was actually ready weeks sooner than expected! The entire team, from our sales consultant, Robin and installation manager, Jack, was superb. But the install team is what makes it all real—exchanging the old window for the new one! And Chase and Greg, our installers, perfected the dream for us!! They were prompt, courteous, meticulous and very skilled! The removal of the huge old window was challenging but they handled that and everything else like pros. They finished by leaving our home and property in excellent condition.

    During and after the process, from signing the purchase contract to post-installation, the Andersen team has been in touch with us to ensure all was going well. That’s an almost lost art of great customer support and service! Plus, “The jewel in the crown”—the new window, is absolutely beautiful, inside and outside. Even more than we’d imagined. It has made our entire household so happy to have a crystal clear view of our little piece of the world and sky and we appreciate everything Renewal by Andersen has done.

    When we built new, we were told Andersen had warranty for the windows. We were not told that there is so Andersen Window service within a 200 mile radius, and the local Stan Greer Mill works states they can't get parts until November of 2022, 6 months away. You can not get your windows fixed. You cannot get service, and apparently you cannot get parts this year either. What good is a warranty if no one will come to your house after the install? And it is raining inside my house - through the Andersen window, nothing to do with the roof. If you spray the window with a hose, water comes in from the window pain. Before you buy Andersen windows, question the location of a dealer- not a "service provider." New Mexico is not close to Arizona.

    We ordered windows in October of 2021. They said they would be installed by December, so a long time but ok. They warned me. I started emailing and calling them in February. They came to install in April and all but one of our windows was measured completely wrong. The man who measured was famous with all the installers as being really bad at correctly measuring. So the company knew he was terrible but sent him out to do the measuring anyway. So they remeasured and said they would rush order them and they would be there in two weeks. They just finished our installation 11 months after we ordered them and paid half. So now they say I have to pay the rest. I guess I am going to have to pay but I am here to say absolutely don't buy these windows. This company is crap.

    Took 8 months to get the windows and had numerous issues with locking and insulation. They sent out a service guy Martin who was rude and basically told me I don't install windows so my opinion is worthless. I've never had a service person be so loud and unprofessional. I reached out to the office to follow up and they said my ticket was closed. I can't believe I got convinced into spending this kind of money for such a poor experience. Get some employees that care if you want to charge 2x the competition.

    I had Marvin windows put in my family room a year ago with no issues. They pre-finished the trim for those, Andersen sent out a painter to do it onsite. Just another 2 week wait with no blinds until he arrives. I would not recommend. Based on my experience with Marvin I believe this company does not deliver on their promises. My entire home remodel has been prolonged 6 MONTHS waiting for Andersen. The kitchen was to be finished and we are just resuming work now. Buyer be aware.

    My house was built in 1980 and the contractor installed Andersen windows. I figured the best thing to do is to remove the old Andersen windows and replace them with new Andersen windows. On install day, the installers were here for a day and a half. There were four of them and they were all very professional. They did an outstanding job.

    I purchased a bay window from Renewal by Andersen. They said it would take about six to eight weeks to come in. It took a little bit longer because of the supply chain. The crew came in and introduced themselves. They looked at the window and from that point forward, they took care of everything. They put protection in the room so that any debris that they were working with wouldn't get into the rest of the house. They put a special mat down on the floor to protect the floors in case they had to walk through the house to get to the window. When the window was complete and they were done with all of the construction process, the leader of the crew walked me through how to operate the windows, how to clean them, and gave me all the paperwork. It was, overall, a great experience.

    The windows seem really strong. Just the way that they operate, they're so much better from the window that I’ve replaced. The sidelights move so much better. I can tell just from a sound installation perspective, I hear a lot less in that room from outside than when I did before with the other windows. So, definitely, the quality is fantastic.

    I had the big front window placed and the basement window replaced with all new frames. We had a sales guy come out in May. He gave me a timeline for August and they came out in late August. The experience was excellent. He answered all our questions. He was very friendly and clear with the numbers and the costs. The timeline was also accurate. The installers were also very efficient. They got it all done in three hours. They did a good job as well. The Andersen windows are amazing. We love them. The biggest thing we noticed since we have a big front window is our old windows were really old and the frame was rotting, and the heat would pour in in the afternoon. With the new windows, we don't get the huge heatwave anymore. It definitely helps save energy too. I would definitely recommend them.

There was a bit of a delay, but it's like with everything else, supply issues. But I was kept informed on the progress of the project. I would be out of town for the initial installation date, but we postponed it a week. The two guys that did the installation were wonderful. I have a higher threshold and I keep tripping on it when I go out the door. But that's just something that I have to deal with. I went from a French door to a sliding door, so there is a track there.

    We had Steve with us as the consultant. He went above and beyond explaining the windows and products, evaluating our needs, and being very honest about what we really needed to replace and how we could balance it over a few years. The first year we did all the windows on the first floor. The second year, we did the windows in the master bedroom. The installers were immaculate. The cleanliness, the care for my home, the property, everything was really stellar. I have recommended Andersen windows to anyone who asks me where I got my windows.

    The window in the dining room wasn't closing the right way. Steve looked at it when he came in for the consultation for the master bedroom windows, and right away, we put in a ticket for having that one repaired. When the technicians came in to install the master bedroom windows, they repaired it. I couldn't ask for more. They truly answered all my questions, showed me what to do, explained how I was not closing the window the right way, and practiced closing the window with me. It was really an outstanding team.

I am not satisfied with the way they handled the financing. Initially, my deposit for the whole project was $23,487 and it was supposed to be under one finance company. But what I found out later is I got a statement not only from Ally, who I really signed the contract for that amount, but also from GreenSky. One is for 9,000 some dollars and Ally for 13,000 some dollars. I'm not gonna make two payments. When I signed up for it, it was one payment of $270.70 and it's supposed to be coming out of my checking account on September the 11th. Now, they're saying they're working on it so that it will be as it was.

    I’m not one to leave reviews but after the experience we had with Renewal by Andersen, I couldn’t let it go. We had a new patio slider with internal grids installed in early March 2022. The door was installed and when the installers asked for me to review their work I noticed that the grids were different in the operating panel and the fixed panel. I brought it to their attention as well as a mold defect and scratches internally on the glass of the operating section of the door. They made phone calls to notify their office.

    It’s now the end of July and still haven’t made the issue correct. I’ve spoken to Francis from the Renewal and he’s been nothing but disrespectful towards me. I asked for recordings of our phone conversations (expecting they record for quality purposes) and he informed me they don’t record.

    We had windows by Andersen installed previously. It so happened that last year, somebody was going door-to-door and they saw a window that was in need of repair. They approached me and I was thinking it was about time to get that done anyway. I got a big front bay window and that was expensive. It took us a while to go ahead and commit to the work. We committed to it around December of 2021 and the work was completed in June of 2022. The timeline kept on changing because of the availability of the window and the supply chain issues. At the end of the day, it ended up being earlier than I had expected because they had told me that it was gonna be stuck in the supply chain for another 90 days. But 20 days later, they gave me a call.

    There were a few glitches with our experience with Renewal by Andersen. In the master bathroom, the casement window was supposed to crank left to right, and it cranks right to left. They're going to try to see if they can change it with the existing window. I don't know how they're gonna do that. But the problem is, when you crank it the way they have it, I have a direct view and my neighbor has a direct view of me and vice versa. From a bathroom, that's not really a good thing. So even though you put a towel when you get out of the shower, it's still not a good thing. Hopefully, we'll be able to get that resolved. One other thing, the quarter round or around the window has to be changed for that window. But all the other windows seem to have been fine.

    I had some problems with the trim. The molding that I had picked out wasn't exactly what I wanted. They were willing to make a change. But when they took the molding out that was there, there was plaster behind it that disintegrated, which we certainly didn't expect. Had I known that or somebody had told me that, we could have saved each of us a lot of trouble. Then we would have just left as one as is.

    I specifically took Andersen even though they're much more expensive than most of the other windows. It’s because I didn't really want to replace the wood around the window. I didn’t want the mess. I wanted something that could fit into the existing areas that I had to replace. I have 14 windows in my living room and dining room, so I really didn't want to have to start ripping up walls. That afforded me the opportunity not to do that.

    I got the E-glass. I have a lot of problems with the sun on one side of my house where I have my driveway. The new window replaced a regular Andersen window I've had since the late 80s, and that room was awfully stifling hot in the summer. It was unbearable. I always had to put the ceiling fan on. The minute that window got put in there, the room was 20 degrees cooler, which was really amazing. I didn't expect to see that much of a difference. Also always, I had a problem with the glare coming in there that bounced off my television set, and the light comes in but there's no glare. It all has to be that E-window that I never had before. The staff was also accommodating and the installers were savvy. They knew what they were doing.

    I had most of the windows in my home replaced by Renewal by Andersen 12 years ago. The warranty has expired. Many aspects of these windows have failed. The crank mechanisms on the casement windows no longer bring the windows close enough to the closure lock for it to engage. My solution, fasten some strong fishing line to the window to pull it close enough to lock. The sliding windows have never been sealed well enough to withstand rain driven by a Nor'Easter storm to prevent water from entering the channels the windows slide in. They overflow into the house.

    Some of the crank mechanisms on the casement windows have rusted. The metal trim on the exterior is rusting. The carpenters who installed the windows used the cheapest wood possible (end glued boards) which are coming unglued. It appears that my $30,000 window replacement is near its operational lifespan. It looks like they now offer a 20 year warranty. However, my experience with Renewal by Andersen might be a signal to shop carefully and consider other vendors.

    My sister had replaced some windows and Renewal by Andersen did a great job. I called them for an estimate, and the sales guy was great. They were having lots of promotions. Even though it was expensive, I just got a house that I'm going to live out my days in and I wanted something that's going to last and work so I went ahead with it. The windows were installed in the middle of February, in Buffalo, New York. The installers were great. They were so respectful of my property. They took their time and cleaned up really good. The windows are fabulous. They're even better than what I thought they would be. They're the kind of windows that keep the interior at a steady temperature. We're in summer and it's working. They're tinted so there's even some privacy to them. They lock great too. I'm extremely pleased.

    Andersen was NOT worth the 20,000 we spent. There is major design flaws.. On Locks, if you want to leave your windows cracked there is NO safety stopper like our old windows.. NO Handles to hold on to when pushing window up or pulling down.. They will charge you to drill holes in the window to add a handle which I had to do as window's over a sink and counter that I can't push up on the glass enough.. Please do better research than we did.. We paid much less for our old windows and had much better windows other than sound.. Wallside windows are not very quiet.

    We do not recommend working with Renewal by Anderson’s Oklahoma City territory. There was no follow up on installation satisfaction. Others had highly recommended product and work done by Anderson. Our sales experience wasn’t bad, just a bit of unwelcome and unneeded pressure. We contracted for 19 windows at about $45k. We inquired about how much site prep was recommended (we did much more than cited as needed) and if construction cleanup would be needed (answer: no). Communication after the sale was poor, and it was a much longer wait than expected. We removed window coverings, moved furniture and decorative items and such prior to the scheduled install date, only to have a no show.

    Short story was that communication and confirmation was quite poor. There was then an understandable weather delay, but the installers arrived very late on the next date a month later. The four installers were cordial, but there were apparent language barriers and they never would introduce themselves. The install was incredibly dirty both inside and out, no contamination control was exercised, was rushed, and clean up was very poor. Many hours of cleanup was required and is still ongoing 4 months later. Some good news. The actual product appears to be working well. Reinstallation of one seriously leaking window by a different service rep was handled quite well, and window handles were installed where needed.

    The rep was good with the presentation and I liked him. The installer wanted to come out a day early to get the job done. The only hiccup we had with installation was that I thought they were gonna be replacing the boards on the window seal itself and that it was gonna be framed back out. They did as far as putting the trim work on the outside but they didn't replace the window seal area. My wife called and told me that they didn't have the boards. I said, “Oh, they don't have it, they don't start. Period.” And they talked to their boss and they told him to go to the lumberyard to get the one-by-fours to trim the windows back out once they were done.

    They did it right. They put the cedar on the outside and pine on the inside. But by the time I got home, they were already too far into it that the window seals at the bottom never got taken out and new ones put in. I was like, “Well, I was with the impression that all will get ripped out.” They said, “There was enough money in all of this to where if there were some rotten two-by-fours, they would have got changed out as well.” So I said, “Well, that’s my fault for not being here.

    The product is fantastic and exceeds all expectation; however, the process from contract to installation was extremely disappointing and yes it was understood touch up painting would be our responsibility. We paid 2 cash payments with 50% paid at the time of contract and the remaining 50% after installation was completed (Note: This contract was for 19 windows). The challenge was we expected +/-26 weeks and experienced 49 weeks from the time of contract to the time installation was completed and now, 2 week after completion and final payment, we are yet to receive a paid in full receipt/statement. Also, touch up painting included setting nails, repairing cracked trim, finish caulking, adding additional trim nails and then ultimately painting. Finally, the installation contractor was a no show/no call, the first scheduled installation day, causing the installation to take a portion of two weeks instead of three (3) consecutive days in one week.

He explained everything and showed us the ins and outs as far as what our windows could do versus what our windows were doing. It's nice and I can tell the difference within the house. The installers needed an extra day which was understandable because they ran into some trouble with one of my doors. They removed every window one by one and put in a new one. They cleaned up after themselves and they vacuumed. They put up tape and plastic to ensure that nothing got damaged and dust didn't get all over the rest of the house.

    I'm very happy with the products. But it may have a couple of scratches here and there from the installation and they were supposed to send us some touch-up paint. That's the only thing we didn't get. Other than that, the products are the best quality I can get on the market. I could get windows cheaper but I wouldn't have gotten the quality of the windows that I received. I don't have a draft anymore and I don't feel the heat coming in from outside.

    The Renewal by Andersen representative that came didn't seem to be selling but explaining. I also like seeing the windows and how they could be cleaned and the options available because I wasn't always seeing the same options from other vendors. When we made the deal, it was still in 2021 so we got the prices for 2021. We had trips coming up in April and May, so we initially asked that they not be put in too quickly. We wanted to wait until our trips were finished. As it turned out, it took at least that long and maybe a little longer to get the product. But that was fine with us because we weren't rushing from the store.

    Whatever date they set for the installation held and the install process was phenomenal. They were a very courteous crew. They didn't have a mess to clean up because they found ways to keep things clean as they went. I thought it would be three days but it was only two. When I looked at the hole that was left after the old windows were removed, it wasn't square, and yet when they finished, it looked like it was. They made it work.

    I got seven windows and two doors. One was a fixed-in-place window that was between our living room and a new patio so we had viewing between the two areas without the need to move the window. There were some standard windows, up-down, pull it out to clean it. There is one large almost picture window. It's got two halves where if you needed to escape from upstairs, you could. It goes from left to right, right to left. One is an itty-bitty window in a bathroom upstairs that's fixed in place. For the doors, one was a double French door. The other was a basic door to the exterior. The windows and the doors have been great. Our only problem is they're so nice, clear and clean that we've had a bird die already because he flew into the big fixed window.

    The part that convinced me was the forever guarantee as long as I own the home or if someone buys the home. My understanding had been that the guarantee passed on to whoever owned the house. When I finally got the written documents, there were changes made in the warranty agreement. I don't know that my agent knew in 2021, but I feel that I got caught in the midst of a change and the warranty applies when the install is done. That makes sense but I should have been aware of the wording change. That's the only downside of the experience.

    I have been burned by too many contractors to mention. I saw a rep soliciting people as they walked into the local hardware store [red flag 1] I quickly darted to the right. Then I overheard him say "windows and doors", I had a need and because I trust this particular local hardware store I thought I'd give them a shot. I explained that I had water coming into the house and the soonest they could get me booked for an appointment other than <24 hours was 2+ weeks [red flag 2]. I finished my shopping and in that time an appointment freed up [red flag 3]. I took the appointment.

    The rep was on time, personable, seemed knowledgeable although there were a few questions that couldn't be answered and definitely a lot of "we are the best" and subsequent promises made [red flag 4]. The price was astronomical! 3 24 inch octagon windows in unfinished attic space was retail $9k but after "discounts" including a "if you sign today" discount, still $6k [red flag 5]. 2 of the windows are on a third floor and out of reach of any ladder I own and, ya know...COVID...and inflation and labor is hard to find and 3rd floor and water coming in...and we are the best, our own crews, experienced, warranties out the wazoo and you don't have to worry about a thing. It all sounded too good to be true [red flag 6].

    I signed the contract and scheduled the "1/8th inch precision measure of each and every window" which was to include an evaluation of any water damage with the full disclosure that if there was structural damage that I would have to remediate that before they could proceed but they'll let me know during the measure so we avoid surprises at install time. I showed them the attic access points, pictures were taken, I made doubly sure that they had all the information they needed and to be sure that there would be no shenanigans day of, was reassured "Don't worry, we're professionals. We got it from here". I really, really wanted to believe that and if I didn't like how things went with the measure I could cancel (up to 3 days from signing the contract, measure was scheduled on that 3rd day).

    I didn't like the way things went with the measure. The measure tech, nice guy, showed up without a ladder. He looked at the same attic I looked at with the rep and said "even if I did have a ladder I can't put it on this unfinished attic floor where I need to measure these windows" and after several calls to management concluded "I'll just measure this one we can get to and order 3 of those and by the way, you're going to need to finish that attic floor before we come back out". I lost count of the red flags at this point and cancelled the project. I called the sales rep directly and he seemed genuinely shocked and disappointed. He wanted to "make it right" but right would have been the measure tech knowing exactly what he was getting into and what was expected of him and showing up with a ladder. That time had passed and I had only a matter of hours at this point to heed the red flags and back out, so I did.

    I am sure it is a quality product but the only way I could justify that price was with not having to deal with miscommunication between sales and techs, not having measure techs show up unprepared, not having managers saying "just measure one and order 3", not being in the middle of sales and techs and managers and having to advocate for myself to get the high level of service I was paying for. Long story short, brace yourself for the price and temper your expectations on the experience.

    My experience with Renewal by Andersen started with Deborah. She was the representative that came to the home, explained how everything worked, took some pre-measurements, and talked about finances. She was real thorough, and the visit was an hour and a half. She was a very pleasant lady, and I would buy anything from her. The greatest part was, after the job was finished, she came back to inspect it, see if we were satisfied 100% and made us really feel at home. It was a really great experience.

    Jose and his team of installers were awesome too. We moved almost everything we had to move, and they only had to move one thing away from the window. They were very timely as well as respectful of the home, keeping the house clean and putting tarps everywhere. We discussed about starting downstairs first, then doing the upstairs second and they were good with that. They got it done in two days and cleaned up everything really good. They were very good guys, and I trusted them. The windows are awesome, and I’ve got a lot of positive feedback for them. Compared to what we had, the noise level has just disappeared and it seems like the cooling system is staying cool longer inside the house than before.

    I’ve had several people asking about Renewal by Andersen. I tell them, “Hey, call them. It's well worth it.” I’ve had people look at the windows, because unfortunately, we had to trim back a tree in the front of the house that got hurt with the freeze. It exposed the house a lot more and people are seeing the upstairs windows, how nice they look, and the downstairs windows. They’ve been asking, “Who did your job?” I told them. Deborah left some cards around, but everybody’s got something they’re gonna do around the house for the summer. With everybody’s finances, everybody's planning a year out of what they’re gonna invest in in their home. We started planning this last year and it finally got done.

    Three months ago, before the install, I got a $10 Subway gift card to let me know that, “We’re still in the process. We know it’s taking long.” It was just to say, “Hey, thanks for being so patient. Everything’s still going on.” However, they told us from the very beginning it would be months before we would get in the install. Knowing that, we were fine. We knew we were taken care of, and we knew it was gonna happen.

    Renewal by Andersen said the installers would be here at 10:00, but there was some confusion about unloading their truck and they came at noon. That was fine because they were so efficient and they got everything done, covered everything inside the house, and were very good about keeping everything organized. They did all the caulking, while my daughter did the interior painting. I had to paint the grids to match the rest of my woodwork, and I knew that would be necessary. The installers did everything I wanted, left things in good shape, and the window fits perfectly. It was beautiful. I'm very pleased with my window, except for one tiny detail. There were two missing trim pieces in the box and they said they would order them and bring them here, but they haven't yet. I'm still waiting for that and it's been 10 days.

    We were happy with the rep from Renewal by Andersen and we had wood veneer on about two thirds of the window, the matte, the wood that we already had on inside. Other than Renewal being a big player in the market, probably the reason we went with them, as much as anything, was because of the quality. We're quite happy with it. Also, they were the only people we talked to who could do a wood interior. I was amazed with the installation process. The reps knocked everything out in a day and a half.

    Of all the companies I have dealt with, Renewal by Andersen is the worst. Of the 6 appts scheduled by cust. service, 5 had to be rescheduled by them. One of the appts which had to be rescheduled was for the installation of the windows. This appt was cancelled less than 24 hours from the time they were to be installed. This was after we had removed all curtains, blinds, objects on adjacent walls and furniture within 3 feet of windows. I called cust. service at least 8 times and had to leave a message in voice mail because there was never anyone to speak to. I did not receive a call back in all 8 instances. Several times I could not leave a message because the mail boxes were full.

    The salesman went on vacation with our $15000.00 check in his pocket and no one at the office knew where it was for over a week. When the windows were finally installed (8 months later, not 2 to 4 months as promised) a screen was missing. It was to be ordered that day and I was to be contacted when it came in. After waiting 2 months I called and was told yes, it was in, and made an appt for installation. I got the impression it had been in for a while and I'd still be waiting if I hadn't called.

    These are only some of the reasons I will never recommend Renewal to anyone. They may make a decent product, but that does not make up for the lack of professionalism and caring about the customer once the sale is final. If I had known then what I know now I would have saved myself a lot of time, aggravation and money and purchased my windows elsewhere.

    Renewal by Andersen was fantastic from start to finish. They were a bit expensive to start with but then they came back and cut me a deal, which was great. That was back in January and then, we had supply chain issues. I wasn't able to get the installation done until about two weeks ago. Renewal by Andersen emailed, called and let me know when they were gonna be and what I needed to do. The installers were very professional, wise and did a great job. I'm still very pleased with the craftsmanship and the work that they did. They were in and out in about three or four hours. They put down mats and they were very clean. I've got brand-new sliding doors, which are fantastic. They've been working like a charm. So, I have no real issues.

    It would have been nice to know my budget the first time though. Renewal’s reps came around a second time with what they call a senior salesperson and knocked off a couple of thousand. That's a very small negative thing because in the end, I did sign. But they should be more straightforward the first time and not try and upsell me on stuff.

    We needed one window replaced in our upstairs bathroom due to dry rot. We first contacted the company in July of 2021. We did not get our one window until January of 2022, and even then there was no interior trim, plus new cracks in our drywall near the window. Every single step of the process was flawed. They scheduled an installation date, but failed to check if the window was actually manufactured (it wasn't). Claimed supply chain issues. Said they would notify us the instant the window arrived in the warehouse, but didn't.

    After repeated calls from me, they found the window in the warehouse, and it had apparently been there for a while (blamed this on new staff). They 'forgot' to drop off the exterior trim boards that I needed to paint prior to installation -- I had to call and ask for them. Said someone would call me for an installation date/ but didn't; I had to call to schedule installation.

    When the window was installed, it was backwards. We specifically asked for the hinge to be on the right and the opening to the left (because all the bad weather comes in on the right), but the hinge was on the left. There was no interior trim. I had to call to arrange the trim. Multiple MULTIPLE phone calls and emails to get the correct window. Each person I talked to was super nice, and promised to take responsibility for fixing the problem, but no one ever returned my calls and there was no solution offered.

    Finally, I found out the name of the manager, Cherish **, who was the first AND ONLY person to offer a solution of any type. We ultimately kept the original (incorrect) window because it was going to be another six months to create one with the hinge on the right. Not my preference, but I was so sick of RBA at that point that I just wanted to be done with it. Cherish ** arranged for the interior trim to be finished and for the drywall to be fixed, and gave us a bit of a discount. Throughout the entire process, I got the sense that the company is overly splintered and communication is terrible. If it took me six months to get one window (the wrong window) installed, I can't imagine the nightmare that could happen with a larger project.

Even the person who called to schedule the installation was a cut above. In these times, it was a pleasure to talk to someone that wants to explain it all and make sure I was going to be happy with it.

    After the installers left, it was not more than an hour until somebody from Renewal by Andersen called me to ask me how they did. She seemed to really care and ask questions and wanted to know. She was excited about it. It was like they were sharing in my excitement at the moment. It was a breath of fresh air to work with Renewal by Andersen because I was getting that kind of positivity from them as well. From the beginning to the end, from the salesperson to the designer, to the customer service person, and to the installers, they acted like they really cared that this was going to be a great project. It was kind of over the top.

    It was all beautiful after the installers left. But then I found three little things that needed attention. There are two windows that are close together but they both crank from the same side, and it’s over a fish pond that's built into that lower level. So I can't even reach the handle by doing it this way. I called and left a message, but I have not heard back from anybody. It’s been about a week now. There was another little issue that I saw right away and pointed out to the installers. He agreed and took a picture of it and sent that in. But I haven't heard back about that either. The installer even said, “If you want to just pay 90% or 95% until this is resolved.” I appreciated that offer. It made me feel good. Because of that, I went ahead and paid for the whole thing. But now, I wonder if I have done the wrong thing. It was very expensive and it lived up to my expectation until now.

They came in and covered the furniture with cloth, and they also put runners down to keep from tracking in on the floor. They cleaned up after themselves very well. They did a great job. Renewal stands behind their product. One of the windows that they installed was warped, and they had to come back and replace it.

    Hired Renewal by Anderson based on reputation -- although more expensive was willing to pay due to reputation. Given supply chain issues, I understood the extra 3-month delay in delivering the product when promised. But after 6 months, having improper installation causing damage to my house, I still do not have a complete product, now have a damaged home and no full product, which I paid $7K for. At this company's mercy and "no one" is accountable or responds unless legal threats are made. As much as I hate to, I may have to hire a lawyer in order to get this situation remediated, spending yet even more money. Disgraceful behavior.

    Our entire home is Andersen products. So it made sense to stick with Andersen for replacements- The sales meeting with the rep was suppose to take 60-90 minutes-totaling 2 hours- the rep talked at us, talked about himself a majority of the time, and failed to listen to exactly what we wanted and promised things that were not delivered. My entire interior is off white/cream. Everything we have is cream (canvas) interior and terratone exterior. He assured us that although he was writing white in the notes it would match. Months later, it is installed, and ALL interior is pure white! The wrong color screws were used, they are exposed, and one door is defective, and we were not notified until install day that the screens were on 4 month back order- the exterior capping to match the rest of the windows and doors was done in the wrong color and not as promised.

    Any time I call or email- I am told someone will contact me or they are looking into it- Someone came out to balance the one door and the other replacement parts are coming in who knows when- since I signed the contract- that is why we are stuck with the incorrect color- he would the sales rep mislead us when apparently canvas wasn’t an option?!?! To make the sale??? There is a complete issue with communication all around-sales-installers-customer service…. I didn’t research beforehand since I assumed dealing Andersen would be a great, easy experience, I feel like I am not being heard, and Andersen would rather avoid me all together… This is a very expensive mistake!!!

    Horrible experience with Renewal by Andersen Greensboro team. They talk a big game in your home and force signing that day, then keep no promises, won’t respond to you, and won’t allow you to cancel. They would not respond to any of my emails for months while waiting for install, then acted like nothing strange had happened and just focus on scheduling the install date rather than making the situation right with the customer. I’m so glad I started with 1 small window to test the waters with them rather than committing to a big job up front. Don’t waste your time or your money with them-for those premium prices the customer service should be much better.

    Jim was a wonderful guy. He gave a great presentation. He sold me on the product, its quality, the guarantee, and the history of it. It was very informative and because of that, I decided to order the window. The guy who came out and measured last week said that the installation would be by the end of August or September. I understand because everyone's at home and everyone pulled equity out of their houses to remodel just like me. Everybody is backlogged. The contractor can't start until the end of May or early June. So it's a waiting game right now. But at least I have people. Some people can't even get people. Even though the window hasn't been installed, the customer service that I've received from Jim to the young man who came out to measure was all-around pleasant and knowledgeable. It was a good experience.

    Updated on 06/02/2022: Don’t do business with this clown show. They only care when you purchase their absurdly expensive windows. They don’t give a damn afterwards. I’m still trying to get anyone to tell me when I can expect a window to arrive. No one at this company seems to care or have a clue. I’ve been trying to get a broken kitchen window replaced for months now. Every time I call I get someone who can’t figure out when the replacement will arrive. Today, I called for about the 4th time recently, only to get another dope who can’t give me an answer on anything…. Only promising to have someone from another department call… which never happens. TERRIBLE!!!!

    Original Review: Terrible service!!! In Scottsdale, AZ. I have had two consultants bid on a window replacement. The first one got the cost and the necessary parts all wrong. The second got all that straight, then told me I was looking at about 20 days before the project would start. I have had the balance of the project on my bank account for a month….over $1,000.

    I called today, since I hadn’t heard about when things would be done, and find out that the anticipated date of delivery and installation is in October!!!! No one bothered to call me and let me know this. Endless excuses from two half-wit customer service agents, with the last one hanging up on me because I got a little upset.

    I received Excellent Service, Very High Quality Products and everything promised was done on time. I ordered 3 doors. They came out and measured twice to make sure everything was correct. The original consultant made sure I understood everything by walking me through the process and listened to what I wanted to make sure I got what I needed at an affordable price. Everything discussed was in writing and I had a copy of what was discussed, knew what I was paying for the project and the next steps that would happen.

    They worked with my schedule. A crew of 4 trucks came in on time introduced themselves, explained what they needed to do and were done with the installation that day. I was told it would take 2days but they did such an excellent job in one day. They left the area clean and the work was done to perfection. They made sure every detail was perfect. The work was so noticeably attractive until my 4 year old grandson came over and the first thing he said was “Doors”. That’s how impressive the curb appeal is. There is not one flaw. The doors are top quality material. I’m Satisfied and I will have them take care of another project I need in the future.

    Renewal by Andersen makes a wonderful product but extremely pricey. The company is all about sales, and the installation side uses shortcuts and their workmanship is terrible! They hire subcontractors that have different levels of installation experience. I had my entire home and gambrel garage windows and doors replaced. The installers used too much caulking, and in my opinion looked sloppy and amateurish look. Caulking smeared onto my deck as well as on my Cedar clapboards of my home. I addressed the issue with the Team Leader of the crew, and he reassured me he would take care of the problem, which he clearly did not!

    In regards to the inside of my home, when installing the new Provia Steel Entry Doors they damaged the sheetrock in several areas of my home, and once again used too much caulking on the windows. Due to the poor workmanship of this Company, I had to spend additional funds to hire my finished carpenter to complete the job. It was not what I expected from Renewal by Anderson and all the hype about their reputation. A business that weighs success by profits and does not provide extraordinary customer experience.

    The company sent Andy, a long-time employee of their company to my home NUMEROUS times to address the issues I encountered during the initial install. It is obvious to me; the company does not communicate effectively, specifically management with the installers. Often times Andy would arrive at my home without the necessary parts to complete the job, only to return on another date. I would arrange for coverage/work from home to accommodate his visits. Finally, I reached my breaking point and communicated with the company giving them one more chance to complete the job to my satisfaction or I was going to seek legal counsel. I strongly suggest you avoid Renewal by Andersen, find another company that strives to please their customers, and are satisfied with a fair profit. I am very disappointed with the overall experience.

    We originally met with Sam from Renewal by Andersen at the beginning of 2022 and were told that because of delays and other factors, our installation probably wouldn't happen until mid-Summer, which we were perfectly fine with. That said, they got all of the pieces in (minus a few screen doors, which I'll come back to later) and scheduled a date far sooner than expected (mid-Spring), which was wonderful! The team that came and did the installation were absolutely fantastic! They were professional, insisted on doing a great job and not just the bare minimum, and had a camaraderie which made the day go by significantly faster. The installation day really was a great experience and I'm so thrilled with how everything turned out!

    Once they were done - and having let us know that the screen doors were on backorder - we were contacted by Renewal by Andersen, who told us that we wouldn't be charged for the screen doors until they were installed and that they would try to make that happen as soon as possible. We're fine with waiting because the experience up until this point has been full of transparent communication. Overall, we cannot recommend Renewal by Andersen enough!

    Although RBA pricing is MUCH higher than Home Depot or Lowe's, it is a complete package. The problem was that a screen door, included in our purchase, was not available (supply chain, Covid issues) when replacement doors were scheduled for install. Not a problem, one would think. But RBA then scheduled the screen installation at least twice - and each time required that we be present. First 2 screen installs were either delayed, or couldn't be completed due to missing parts from screen kit. And when I asked installers if we needed to be present, both times they said "no". But corporate told us we were misinformed and did need to be there. As it turns out, the ONLY reason they wanted us present was so RBA could immediately collect any monies due. No recognition of our inconveniences for rescheduling! Won't deal with them again - they have lost their customer focus.

    Updated review: Oct. 14, 2022

    Resolved.

    Original Review: April 1, 2022

    We ordered what we considered a large project for our means. This means about 25 windows and a new front door unit. We ordered this one year ago in 2021. Our expectations set from the beginning is that it would be 2-3 months for the job to be complete. We have patience, and are understanding of a pandemic and supply chain event unlike we've ever seen around the world. However, a shift in our expectations were never communicated - we had to reach out to them, and even then, nobody could ever tell us when our project would be scheduled. From what we thought was June turned into August, and then later, and we finally had a crew at our house in late October. Never once did they proactively reach out to us to let us know there would be delays - never.

    The installation crew we had was top notch, cared about quality, and the work they did was pretty amazing. If it wasn't for the care they showed and concern for great workmanship, we would have been in a bigger dilemma. It was the installation crew that informed us in October of 2021 that one of the windows (of a larger living room replacement) wasn't measured correctly, and needed to be re-manufactured. That was on Day 1 of the Install. I continue to be very thankful of that crew, because if they would have torn those windows out and the replacement wasn't a fit, the front of my house would have been nothing short of a disaster.

    On Day 2 of the install, this same crew, who obviously cares about the work they do, informed us that the door frame unit was also not measured correctly, and they would not be able to install the door. This would also need to be re-manufactured. At this point, it's very late in October, and we know that the coldest part (North facing) of our house was going to be without 50% of the replacement we needed done, and now we had to figure out if we would put up the window treatments again, but we knew it was going to be cold and drafty there once again. In our mind, we know RbA was already horrible at communicating with us, but we figured we'd get our properly measured pieces by Spring. It might seem like no big deal, but this was just an exhausting event ending in disappointment.

    In February, we were called and told that everything was ready and that the crew would come out on March 31st to finish the job. Great! The financing they helped us set up was already amortized and we've been paying for a job for several months that hasn't been finished. I should really go to a different site to complain about that, but I'm sure it's not legal what's happening here. Yes, I am paying for a job that isn't finished.

    Yesterday, March 31st. The installer (I had not heard from ANYONE since the initial call to set up the date) calls, I clear out the garage so they can work under cover because it's not the nicest day out. Different installer, but obviously the same care for quality of work. However, his truck doesn't have all the equipment they need to 100% finish the job. No material for 2 major pieces of interior woodwork that needs to be done, and partial material for other internal woodwork that needs to be done. He doesn't have notes from anyone about what was needed, and was obviously not told a thing about the job itself, the type of wood we are using, etc.

    Here's the kicker...during the almost 5 months when they took the door frame/slab unit back to their warehouse, they've lost the door. So obviously, if they mis-measure the unit, they are going to not eat that cost, they are going to re-use it somewhere or somehow. I'm sure that frame is installed somewhere in a house in the United States somewhere. So we have a frame on a truck that is the proper measurements, but now there is no door to go with the frame, or no slab as they call it. They're looking for it, but can't find it.

    Where's my door? Where's the communication? How can you send an installer out after 5 months without all of the equipment to do their job? How can you send me surveys like I'm a paying customer when the job isn't done? Why am I paying off the financing for a job that isn't close to being finished? Why is it that nobody calls me to set my expectations properly? Why is it when I call, nobody ever picks up the phone and it's looped to voicemail 100%? Why is it when I've asked to speak with people in management, it's ignored?

    So - we were excited. We needed new windows. We liked the product, and felt that it was the right fit for our home. The initial sales process was pretty good - it didn't feel like we were being sold (although we were) but it was consultative selling. From there, it's been a horrible, stressful, dreadful experience, with the exception of the installers who care about quality, and tell it to you straight, even if it's not what you want to hear. It is not a feeling, but a fact that they don't care about us, have no concerns over our schedule, our life that has been disrupted, and certainly have a lot of work to do on their client services and operations teams being in lockstep and properly communicating with each other, but more importantly with their customers. I see that I'm writing this on April 1st...I am the fool.

    This company is the worse at customer service. Since day 1 of the installation process has been a nightmare. No confirmation call or text reminder sent the day before the appointment. Installers showed up at a different time and nobody informed us about this. We were told that we did not have to make a payment until windows were installed. Guess what?? We were billed for the first monthly payment. Since the process has started nobody has been able to helped us out. We wanted to stop the purchase and we were told that it was not possible. Once someone comes to repair a window and makes the report to the company, somehow nobody has an idea about who came to your house. They don't know what I'm talking about. This company train their employees to persuade the customers so they can make a profit.

    The sales representatives puts you under pressure and you feel forced to make the purchase. As a new homeowner you want the best for your house, but this was the biggest mistake we ever made. Once you signed their contract, they totally forget about customer service professionalism. No one seems to care about their customers concerns or complaints. Every time I have called for a complaint I get transferred to so many people and nobody helps out. Every phone call ends up with "you will receive a call back" but no one calls back. It has been 7 months and I'm still waiting on the call back. I have sent 2 letters to corporate and they still not getting back to me.

    Windows by Andersen just cared about the profit of every contract signed by their customers. Everything is based on lies and peer pressure is their best option to trapped customers. The employees are very rude and unprofessional. Their products might be made of good materials but it's ridiculous expensive. I wish I never made this decision.

He went through it and redesigned the windows the way I wanted them to. He made me feel like family. He talked to me nice and wanted to know what I want.

    The initial process took three months, for the order to go by and to be installed, but communication was very good. Then, there were a couple of things that were pointed to us by the installers that needed to be corrected. It was another two months for that to be turned around and get rescheduled. But there wasn’t an issue. It's amazing how easy the new windows open, how secure they feel in having gone through a little bit of winter, and how warm they feel when you walk by them on a cold day.

    Sam was my salesman and he was very positive, personable, and honest with me. That was why I was able to listen to him and make a decision in regard Renewal by Andersen. We got a new door in my kitchen, some side doors, and screens. The kitchen door is wonderful and I have no regret. The quality is excellent and even the hardware. I've had compliments from folks because the door is in my kitchen. This one is very secure and very attractive. My kitchen is walnut. The door frame is brown and it has a little paint inside. It's easy to clean because the little frame wooden things aren't in the way like they were before.

    But I made a mistake. I have a full glass door and it's not good. I had to put some of those little stick-ons and the view of where the eye would be because I don't want anybody to walk through that glass. I should not have gotten that. As for my side door, I got the convertible where you can lift it up and down for the screen then the storm window. Overall, the doors are wonderful and I would recommend them to anybody. As a matter of fact, I had a sister-in-law who came over and wanted to know about the doors and where I got them. They're costly but it's worth it because I feel very secure. They're solid and sturdy.

    This home is my largest expenditure that I own and I wanted the best windows for the house. I've been in it for 20 years and I didn't want plastic windows. I had Renewal by Andersen do 16 windows and this has been the most wonderful experience we've ever had with owning a home. The salesman that sold the windows to us was perfect. I was in sales all my life and I hope I did as good a job as he did. He explained everything to us. We had had two other companies give us a bid on the windows and we saw samples of their windows and we weren't happy with them. We had plastic trim windows before in the home when it was built. When we saw the frame and the quality of these windows, there wasn't any choice other than Andersen. The crews were the same way. They did their stuff and cleaned up after themselves. It was just a terrific organization.

    There were 12 windows on the back and we did those first. It only took about four weeks to get to the windows in. We then decided to do the front soon as the installers finished that and it took a couple of months to get the windows. We ordered them in November and they did them here in March. Other than that, we were pleased. I'm close to Interstate 30 and you can't hear the interstate traffic at all. We had a bird chase a dove into one of the windows on the backside and it just went thud. It was right by my head and that left some dust from the bird's feathers. During the cold that we just had at both times, the frame of the windows stayed about slightly cooler than the inside of the house. We didn't have any cold air coming in the home.

    You better hope they install it right the first time and you don't need anybody to come and fix anything. If you do, it will be super hard to get ahold of anybody and when you do, they won't actually listen to you. I had a front door and storm door replaced. Everything was going well for the first 2 weeks, then neither door would close correctly. I emailed and called for 3 weeks with no response, then I finally heard from them and they sent somebody out. He told me to wait another month as the weather stripping just needed more time to settle. Also, the installers took a chunk out of the siding on my house. When I mentioned it to the installers, they claimed that damage was already there, which it was not. The guy that came out also fixed that with some caulking, which is fine, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth that the installers tried to tell me the damage was already there.

    Well, a month and a half went by and the door closing problem was not any better. On top of that, because the doors wouldn't close correctly, a wind picked up the storm door and it pulled away from the frame, cracking the frame in the process. I spent a month trying to contact somebody, ANYBODY, at Renewal. The guy that came out and told me to wait another month wouldn't even respond to emails or calls. I sent pictures of the damage and what needed to be fixed. I finally got a generic TEXT message one day that said my part had come in and they scheduled a date for my repair. Never even bothered to call or email to discuss what was wrong. Well guess what?

    The guy got here today and the only part they ordered was the flashing/weather stripping to fix the closing problem. Nothing to fix the actual part that broke on the storm door. Maybe if somebody would have CONTACTED me, I could have told them what was going on. So now we are going to have to wait who knows how long for them to actually order that part and come out and fix it. Very poor communication and customer service. Even after the doors were installed, nobody contacted us to ask how the install went or if we have any problems or questions, which seems like something a company that claims to have excellent customer service would do. Instead, they made us feel like they just wanted to take our money and run. I recommend NOT using Renewal by Andersen. I am glad I didn't ask them to replace our windows and patio doors. We will be using another company for that.

    The Renewal by Andersen salesman came and went through the demonstration with us. We looked at the heat resistance. They did the setup and did the demonstrations, the composite window versus all the other things. The composite really caught my eye because of the climate where we live. We have an extreme cold in the winter and fairly hot in the summer. The resistance of the composite window, not cracking, not fading, was a selling point. Then, the windows where they don't transfer the heat, they came and put them in. It was an all-in-one package was another thing that seemed good. We have a wood finish in our house where they put the windows. I knew that we would have to seal the trim, but I figured that the wood-clad surface facing inside would have been sealed. But I ended up having to do that.

    When the installer came to put them in, as he was unpacking them, he noticed that each window had a little bitty chip in the wood's finish. He said they go down a big roller, and he thought somewhere on one of those rollers there's the same thing catching every little window. We called them and there was a debate on whether we would install them or order new windows. When you order, it's three months out, at least. We received a cost deduction. They made compensation for that over the phone. We took pictures of them and sent them back to the manager that we were dealing with and I was very happy with that.

    They're not cheap windows. Probably one of the most expensive windows that you can buy. But the rep was honest and he went through the whole process. We also didn't do a thing other than move the furniture and they helped us move furniture when they got there too. They also cleaned up their mess and they took all the old windows.

    My house is 100 years old and I was having 11 vinyl replacement windows upstairs replaced as they were fogging/drafty/hard to open and close. At first I had a bit of buyer's regret as I waited for the windows to arrive because of the sticker shock, but once they were actually installed all of that evaporated. The installation team did an amazing job, they let me know that the previous replacement windows were installed without removing the original 100 year old counter weights and no insulation had been put in the channel. No wonder my windows were so drafty before! They were so badly installed before that they were leaking air from around the window itself!

    Everything was kept very clean and they were lightning fast. You might think going super fast meant they were rushing/not taking care but that is the opposite of how I felt they did the job. They took the time to explain what they found and how they were fixing things which made me feel they were doing things thoughtfully and with purpose, even with their speed. This was not just a, "let's get this job over with and move on to the next job" attitude. Beyond the installation, they also took the time to think about the aesthetics of my windows, both with the exterior aluminum wrap and the interior.

    They installed additional trim pieces on the interior to cover/fill the gap that the previous install hadn't bothered to do, and now my windows look much more seamless and clean in their interface with the casing. Exterior wise they made sure that the wrap style matched the other existing windows that were not being replaced as the front wrap and sides had different styles. Crew was very polite, very accommodating and very professional. I am very happy with how my windows turned out and I'm sure my heating bill will be happier now too!

I ordered two half screens so I'm just waiting on the half screen to come in, and that should come in on Friday. Scheduling and communication went fine. The only thing I had a small issue with was the pricing. I thought that I was going to be paying one thing and then after the installation, it was another fee, which was more.

    The Andersen product is fine but project management/customer service is horrible. Installation of two exterior doors and one sliding glass door took from 10/7/21 until 12/17/21, requiring seven visits by Andersen, and after six visits the two exterior doors failed City inspection. Multiple phone calls and emails, many not returned unless I followed up repeatedly. "Concierge" assigned to me had a habit of asking ME what the status of my project was because she did not know/could not find my paperwork. Operations manager gave me information which directly contradicted what I'd been told by concierge and also even contradicted himself over the course of a single phone call.

    Two months after project completion I was sent a customer satisfaction survey and received a voicemail message encouraging me to complete the survey and to call if I had further information I wished to share. I called because I have a detailed written chronology which I thought might be helpful. I was told the person who'd left the voicemail message was not in but she would be left a message to call me back. One week later, she has not called back.

    Needing a new front door and patio door we decided to go with a higher estimate with a well established company. What a total disappointment that turned out to be. After a rot problem that Renewal had said was possible, and seemed fairly common. Renewal completely has pushed us to the side. So during installation there was rot discovered. The plan was to temporarily install the door until I had the rot repaired. Once the rot was repaired Renewal said they would come back out and do the final installation of the door.

    The rot was repaired right before Christmas. The week between Christmas and New Year's I made a couple of calls and left messages, with no return call. I figured it was the holiday season and after New Year's I would get a call. A few days after New Year's I still had not heard from Renewal, so I decided to call them back. Took 2 days still for them to return my calls. During that call I was told they would schedule a day for the installation and get back to me. Still a few days later I hadn't received any call back. Not sure what to do next since my calls are not being returned. I let a week go by. I then get a follow-up call about my installation. I explained the final installation still had not been done. I also explained all the calls with no return calls. He was really helpful and said he personally would take care of it that day.

    I asked him if they could please send the original installers, (they had installed a patio door on my house the same day as the original installation) I told the manager they did a great job . He said he would try to get them out there. The manager called back a few minutes later with the installation scheduled for the following Tuesday. But he also informed me that the original installers were too valuable to send to my home, because they could install 2-3 doors in a day. So after all the non-returned calls I still wasn't a valued enough customer to get the good installers. So I told the manager the following Tuesday would be great. He said for me to expect his call first thing Wednesday to make sure the installation went well.

    The final installation of the door is HORRIBLE. We have a half inch gap above our door on the outside of our house. That is just filled with a huge bead of caulk. It looks like a 2nd grader did it. Honestly, if I could post the pictures people would be shocked. So the installation was a complete disappointment. I wasn't to worried though because the manager was going to call the next day and this would get fixed. Well surprise! Never got a call back. So I turned to their social media and posted a review similar to this one and got a call from a regional manager and he said they would have someone out that Friday to fix it.

    Friday a company representative came and looked at it and was embarrassed by what he saw. Told me this was not their quality of work. It's now the following Wednesday, again have gotten no response with a good rain forecasted in 2 days. I really feel like the rot I had replaced will have been pointless. Since the water will eventually seep though that huge gap. I need my windows replaced also. I know one company I will NOT call for an estimate. Renewal is one of the biggest disappointments I've had in a company's expectations.

    The doors are very, very nice. The door wall they have has a really good locking mechanism on it. We’re real close to the lake at Saint Clair so we get some pretty nasty winds off of that side. With that door, if you don't take it, close it, and lock both locks on it, it doesn't seem to seal 100% from the wind where you'll still hear it a little bit. I don't know if that's normal or not.

    Ten months ago we signed a contract with Renewal by Andersen to replace 22 windows in our home. We were told that delivery could take up to 16 weeks. The windows were finally delivered after five months and we were understanding of delay due to issues related to the pandemic and supply chain. Unfortunately, the installer discovered the windows were the wrong size due to fabrication error. We were told at that time the windows would have to be reordered but that our order would be moved “to the top of the list.” It has now been more than five months and we still have no windows or word of when they will arrive.

    During this time we have had to postpone other scheduled home improvement projects including painting the exterior and interior of the house and reinstalling shutters that were taken down in September in anticipation of window installation at that time. The last we heard from our customer service representative was on January 10. We were told at that time the windows would be delivered in "a few weeks." It has now been seven weeks and we have still received no word. I'm constantly bombarded by promotions from Renewal by Andersen.

    I had bedroom windows installed by Renewal by Andersen. Things worked really well and it was all a clean installation process. Nothing was damaged in the process too. The physical product is very good and I like it. We noticed that it's now warmer in the house. I wish we had done it earlier.

    All employees were extremely polite. Window is beautiful. Installers cleaned up everything before leaving. Company came back to inspect work. Would recommend Renewal by Andersen to friends and family.

    Renewal by Andersen resolved and fixed all issues.

    Original Review: Feb. 22, 2022

    Horrible service. Workers smell like drugs and act under the influence while at our house. Installation and workmanship were the worst we've seen. Customer service is terrible. They've been attempting to deliver less than agreed to. After two attempts to do a simple job they're still not finished - and damaged our house way more than what they're attempting to improve. First attempt to install a new entry and storm door they damaged it during installation and forgot many of the parts needed to complete the job. Second attempt and visit to our house they damaged the new replacement entry door during installation (again) and then went on to damage the newly installed threshold.

    The installation of the storm door is terrible - they adjusted the storm door so low that it damaged the rubber sweep - ripped it right off after initial use. The Renewal by Andersen employees were foul-smelling, like they haven't showered in a month, reeked of **, and acted like they're barely awake. Horrible service and experience to date, and we still have to watch them do this a third time. Renewal by Andersen has been trying to install a simple storm door, entry door, exterior Fypon and paint since June 2021 and the installation is still ongoing. Awful experience for the price and brand name - discreditable.

    We had a big bay window custom-made and installed. It took forever for the product to actually show up. The process took probably seven months from the time I ordered it until the thing actually showed up. That aside, the window is beautiful and we love it. I'm happy with it. The installers worked through a downpour to get it done, so I was really impressed. They were done within the timeframe.

    I read up a lot about the different windows and I wanted to see what Andersen had to say with their new composite wood. The salesman didn’t do any high-pressure sales. He just showed me the brochure and answered the questions I had. I bought a huge window that is the equivalent of three windows. I was under the assumption that the work was going to be done in one day unless the workers find some defects that they have to correct in the structure of my house. They're not going to put the window in until June. My experience with Renewal by Andersen was very positive.

    We replaced 16 windows and a sliding glass door. We signed the contract with Renewal by Andersen in August and they installed in October. Then, the screen for the sliding glass patio door didn't arrive until about two weeks ago, so that was a bit long. Aside from that, their products are very expensive. But other than that, everything was fine and I had no problems with the rep that I had.

    I used Renewal by Andersen before and I was satisfied with their work. I decided to use them again and this time, I got a kitchen window, a bathroom window, and a door. The rep I dealt with was very good but the work hasn't been done yet.

    The sales rep and installer from Renewal by Andersen were great. I got a slider door from them and it added to the house. It was expensive though and it's a little disappointing that we haven't gotten our screen door yet. But they've been in decent communication with me and said it's due to supply chain issues. They also said that they hope to have it by May.

    I like the quality of the products from Renewal by Andersen and I'm getting a sliding glass door from them. I asked them to give me a little bit of time to get some money situated so that I could buy it and get the things handled, so they're working with me right now. The rep I had was very informative. I was trying to find the difference between Pella and Andersen Windows as to which one was better and he filled me in on some of the things that you need to look for and will help you in your decision-making. He never said anything negative against any of the other companies, but showed me some things that were in their paperwork that you should keep your eyes out for because they're hidden in the little notes at the bottom.

    I liked what they Renewal by Andersen had to offer and we ended up purchasing two entry doors, one self-closing fire door, and one entry door from them. The salesman did a presentation and asked us a lot of questions about what we wanted. He showed us what our options were and he was here for a while. He spent some good time on making sure we understood what we were buying and what was available. I was happy with it. They were also able to install the products prior to the timeline that they gave us and I'm very happy with my doors. I would purchase from them again.

    Lisa was good. She was professional and she took her time. Even the installers were all professional, patient and took their time. They did it in three days. But it was just the time of getting on the schedule. They had scheduled me but I was the one that canceled it to the fall, so they were patient with me. The windows are good. It's worth the money.

    I replaced all my windows through Renewal by Andersen and it was a good process from start to finish. The windows probably cost more than what I could have gotten somewhere else but I knew I wanted to go with Andersen and went with it. It's a really well-known company, especially in Minnesota. The person I worked with was very knowledgeable about the products and he clearly knew what he was talking about. Then, they did the installation within the timeline they provided. The installers came when they were going to come in October, which turned out to be a nice day, but they were in and out and it was seamless.

    The worse customer service I've encountered in years. Communication from the sales manager, Matthew ** was deplorable. I signed my contract April 28, 2021, that stated we would receive the order in 10 to 12 weeks. We made a change in the color that required a change order on May 3rd. At the end of August we still had not received delivery notification. We had fully anticipated that the work would be completed by the end of the summer. Because of the delay, my husband had to postpone his trip to New York. When I brought this to the attention of s Mr. **, he instructed me to contact him directly. As our patio door was the most popular and standard order Mr. ** said he would try to find one in their warehouse. When none could be found I asked for some sort of refund for the delay. Mr. ** shared he may have no other choice but to offer some sort of compensation for the delay which he blamed on the pandemic.

    Please note, I am a Broadway Theater manager and am well aware the numerous problems created by the pandemic. However, the pandemic does not excuse poor communication. With the exception of 1 time, all my calls to Mr. ** resulted in my leaving a voice mail or text message with no return phone call. Had I received even an email or phone call with apology for the delay prior to my reaching out to my sales rep, Nicholas **, I would not be so angry and upset. I was told that additional support staff were being hired to help alleviate the problem, however, the lack of communication and the many times the ball was dropped continued. As an example, because there was no answer to my phone call, below, please find my last text I sent to Mr. **, who NEVER responded to me directly, but forwarded my concern to someone else. The below text was sent on November 2nd, 2021.

    "Tomorrow will be 6 months since we put on our order and signed our contract. We are still waiting for the screen door. The one delivered last month was bent and we were told we would get a replacement. We received a call 2 weeks ago saying that screens were being received by your warehouse and we would be notified of an installation date. NOTHING has happened thus far. Please contact me."

    It took another 3 days before the replacement screen door arrived. From my experience, Renewal By Andersen spends large amounts in marketing and advertising. Rather, they need to spend more on ensuring they have the product to deliver and customer service training and follow- up.

    Three years ago, I had put in the first half of the windows. I liked them, so I completed the house with them. The installation team did a great job. I love the quality of the products. They called throughout the process to make sure the team was doing a good job, which I appreciated. They followed up a couple of times after. They were very thorough.

    I had all the windows in my house replaced because I have one of those cookie-cutter houses from the early 2000s and the windows were broken. I was looking at different window companies over and over again. I wanted to make sure that I didn't replace contractor grade, quick housing with cruddy windows. The information that I found online about Renewal By Andersen Windows resonated with me as far as customer service and quality of the product. Then, the fact that I can pay for these for the rest of my life, helped as well, because I didn't have to give a million dollars upfront. The 3.9% wasn't great, but for the quality I was getting, I could swing it every month.

    The guys were very respectful, well-mannered and cleaned up as they went. They were also very nice, because some of the old blinds were drilled into the wall and I couldn't get them off. They did that for me because they couldn't remove the window if I couldn't get the window blinds off. The guys that I had were really good. The windows look good, too. Everything went fine.
