    False Sales Pitch. I bought 8 very expensive windows for my home from Renewal thinking there was vent locks on them but they don't have them. My old windows all had those locks on them. I would never replaced those old windows with the new windows. Now they are trying charge me for those vent locks These windows are waste of money. Now I can't leave my windows open. Renewal should tell their customers that there is a extra charge for those vent locks. I will not recommend this company to anyone.

    First of all I love my new windows...but...they are very heavy. They are hard to open. I am a senior citizen and do not have much strength in my hands. I tried to make the windows open up to the "wash the other side" position and it was impossible because they are so heavy. I just thought I should mention something for other seniors living alone. Besides that the windows keep my home very warm in the winter.

    The double hung windows I got from Renewal are quality windows and they also have the financing plan. It’s a complete job where I don’t have to do anything, but stand or whatever. The salesperson was really nice, took the time, showed me everything, helped with different options and gave me a cost and it was good. The installers were a little late one morning, but it was on a Monday so they had to go get their truck and stuff. They were good, very polite and clean. There was a little foam splatter on some of my furniture, but not too bad. I like the windows. But I had a little moisture on the windows already and I was kinda surprised about that. They’re also a little overpriced. I’d recommend them, though. But if they were just a little bit cheaper, more people would probably get them.

    I got a patio door from Renewal by Andersen after a recommendation from a friend. Everything worked fine. The sales person came in, looked everything over and said, “Here’s what we should do, and we'll get it ordered and we'll go from there." They did a nice job. And if the door holds up the way it is, they may get a chance to do some more next year.

    We’d heard good things about Andersen and wanted something that would be beneficial for us. We got six slider windows and they told us it would be six weeks, and they called us in two. We were very surprised since we weren’t ready. But the rep was very nice, and so was the contact person. They called to make sure that everything was set up on time. It worked out very well and we were very pleased. Also, the installers cleaned up after themselves. I didn’t have to do anything. Before I knew it, the windows were in. When they’re completely closed, it’s quiet as can be. You can’t hear anything. They’re the upstairs bedroom windows so it’s working out perfect.

    We purchased 2 doors and a matching storm door from Renewal by Andersen of Central Florida. The in-home design consultant, Darren **, stated that the doors were to be custom-built for our home and that all work including installation was to be done by in-house personnel. That was his selling point which he emphasized numerous times. Quality Custom in-house construction and installation. We were convinced by that statement and entered into a contract paying half of the cost upfront. It took 3 months for the doors to be made and this was expected as per contract. What was not expected was another 2 week set back because they didn't have the parts after they had given us a date for Installation. Installation as per contract was to take 1-2 days.

    Upon the first attempt at installation once they had the parts, the installers took 7 hours to install doors that did not hang correctly. My side door had a 1/2 inch gap on the top right corner from the jamb and you could see the sky through it from the inside. When I questioned Patrick the in-house installer, he replied, "I have seen worse". For my front door there was gaps on all 4 corners. The CUSTOM made storm door was not installed because Patrick stated that either he didn't know what he was doing or the door was the wrong size. It was left in my garage. The Supervisor, Chris came out 4 days later, calling me twice to change his original appointment time. He was over 2 hours late.

    Once he arrived and "evaluated" the situation, he determined that the problem was that the installers installed the doors without all of the parts. He assured me that the parts would be found or reordered. Second installation attempt was scheduled for October 2nd. The 2 new installers, Terry and Brett, arrived on time and began their attempt. Terry was attempting to correct the side door and asked me to inspect his work. Not only was there still a gap and Lord knows how many visible screws but the facing of my $2500.00 CUSTOM made door was splitting away from its frame.

    I told Terry that this was unacceptable and I did not want the door and to not complete the installation because there was no point in dressing up a substandard door, just finished with the front door and storm door. Terry then informed me that I was under contract and that I did not understand that I was required to allow him to complete the work. He then asked if I was a "believer", because a "believer" would not be that way. I then told Terry to get out of my garage. He asked again, "Are you a believer," I said, "Take your tools and God and get out of my garage," which he did. I said please just finish the front door and storm door.

    I called Chris, the Supervisor and asked him to come to my house asap. His asap was approximately 2 hours, meanwhile, Terry and Brett are still attempting to install the storm door. After they tried to jammed it in with 25 million screws, they decided that they needed to cut the CUSTOM made door, which they did and the door still did not fit, even with 25 million more screws. The storm door would not close because its handle hit the front door handle. Chris finally arrived and made the decision that the storm door was the wrong size and that the side door was substandard. It should be mentioned that there were 2 separate measurements made before the doors were CUSTOM made. One by ** and the second by Chris.

    Bottom line, I do not have acceptable doors, no storm door, exposed wood, screw holes everywhere. I have no time frame as to when they will replace the side door or receive the storm door or when the job will be completed nor does the company. If this is what custom-built doors by Andersen or custom installed doors by Andersen is, they should rename it, "Malcolm X Custom", we install by any means necessary... But don't count on getting your doors. Jovann **

    I’ve had Andersen before, but they were the original so they were almost 60 years old. I figured it was time for a change. I got two picture windows, one was six feet and the other was five. They told me they’d have it done in one day and they did. I left them alone and they did their job, and everything looked good to me. They worked out pretty much according to the timeframe, so I was happy. So far, everything seems good.

    Hello, upfront we ordered windows and were told it would take 3 months before install. Payments start immediately. At three months we get a call for scheduling our install, but on that day no one shows up or calls. When I call to find out what is happening they need to get back to me. Two days later I call back to only be told someone will call me. The next day they call me back and set up install. On install day we ordered 8 windows and they only have 7. No one seems to have an answer about the 8th window. I have called twice and they tell me someone will call (they never do). The installers said someone will call. I’m wondering if they expect to be paid for a job not done? I would suggest going with a different window company, their windows are good but at what cost. No one has a good enough product to be able to treat their customers this way!

    My husband does his homework, and we checked with other window retailers. We liked Renewal by Andersen because they’re well-known, and I’ve never heard anything bad about them. And we thought we’d have somebody come out. We told him the problems that we had, and we didn’t wanna go too high in money because we’re seniors. He was very knowledgeable and guided us the way. He said that he would do it. And so, we trusted him. Their rep wasn’t pushy and was really nice, and that’s the main thing. I don’t care how good a product is, if you’ve got somebody pushy, then you think, “Well, I’m not sure about that.”

    We had a backdoor put in and we have a patio cover that covers that door. So, I think it’ll last as long as we’re here. Everything was absolutely wonderful. The fellow that came out to put the door in was great. He called when he was on the way and was here on time. He took care of everything, cleaned everything up and was very pleasant. It was a great experience.

    The quality of the door was great too until I heard the price. So, that cut down my buying jewelry. Nobody’s gonna see it but you get what you pay for. It’s a well-made heavy door, and it’s one glass. And our dog loves to look and put her nose against it to see us. The only thing we’re having trouble is getting the screen door. But other than that, everything’s great. Renewal by Andersen's a good company that’s reputable and they’ve got nice people. We’ve been very happy with them. If we had to have windows put in years before, I would’ve gone with the windows that the rep was suggesting. But we had already done it.

    Renewal by Andersen had oak interior where others only had pine so I went with them and ended up buying casement windows. Their sales reps were great. I’ve had a couple of small problems with the windows and they’ve been attentive. For example, I can’t get one of the screens out of the windows, and the guy is actually coming over on Tuesday. He’s gonna order some new screens for me, free of charge. The installation of the windows was very good too. The were out for two days. A two-man crew was out for two days for half of the windows which are kind of the smaller windows, and for the large bay windows, a larger crew came the next day to put those. They let me sit and watch how they do it. They put all the insulation in and took the time to level everything, and made sure the windows went in square. The windows are absolutely gorgeous.

    I bought some windows from another company 17 years ago as well as three of my neighbors and none of them complained about it. I found out Renewal by Andersen was the same company and I was very happy. One of my neighbors asked me about the door if it was a little difficult to open and I said I thought so. She called and Renewal by Andersen came back four days later to fix it. They put a new screen door for her and they didn’t charge her, which was what I liked about it. They stand behind their work and when you call them, they won't give you the runaround.

    Renewal replaced all my windows upstairs, and later on, I needed to replace my downstairs and I went directly to them. They told me how long they were gonna be and they told me they were gonna be here for two days. They came and painted the frames and later on, something in the door was not lined up correctly and before the rep left, he told me that but they were gonna come and fix it. They came back and took care of it and I'm very pleased. I’m very satisfied with Renewal by Andersen.

    Excellent from sales to installation! We replaced all 17 windows in our 34 year old house. The windows were measured and manufactured to fit all openings. They sent 2 big trucks out with a crew of 5 per truck. They started at 6:30 am and were finished by 2:30 pm. All the workmen were professional and it was fascinating to watch them work. That was at 3 weeks ago and the windows look great. Our AC runs less and all rooms take less AC to regulate the temperature. We do not hear outside noises now unless we have the windows open.

    My wife and I just had two sets of sliding glass patio doors installed for right around 15K. Everything went well; the doors seem excellent (time will tell!). They are argon-filled double pane low-e glass. Our patio does not get a great deal of sun but is, of course, exposed to cold in the winter, so we look forward to the benefits. I would have given a five-star review, esp. with Andersen's local choice of installation crew, who were pleasant to work with and did a good job. The only bittersweet part was their upfront salesperson.

    "Scott" did a good job of selling us what we needed and moving everything forward. When I emailed him (three times!) to inquire how Andersen compared to another company that utilized and instant, electronic privacy glass, he would absolutely NOT respond to me. I could not believe it! The doors I asked Scott about were probably much more expensive and not applicable for our use, but the fact that once he made the sale but then would not respond to my emails after the fact, prompt me to NOT call him for further sales.

    Since we had replaced all of our windows in our home just a few years ago, I believe Scott thought there were no more sales to be made. As a *former* salesman, I would remind every salesperson to always be aware of future potential sales, and to never alienate a possible customer. As I've mentioned though, the doors seems great and the installation was seamless. Nate, Garrett, and their installation helper (sorry, I've forgotten his name), were great, and overall this was not a bad installation. I look forward to many years of quality performance from our new patio doors!

    My experience with Renewal by Andersen has been really good for the most part. The techs who came out to install were great. The windows are beautiful, however, they sent the wrong kitchen window and they were supposed to swap out the hardware. As soon as they came and swapped out, they had half the window with the right hardware but the other half of the window still has the wrong hardware and it’s unordered. We upgraded the hardware with the brushed nickel and then we added the window at the end. We told them that we upgraded the hardware, but they said the window would be standard, which is the brown-looking hardware. The first install was at the end of June and we’re still waiting for them to come back and replace that. They said it was gonna be done, 1-2-3, but we’re now past the middle of September.

    Then, we were looking where we had the drapes installed and on the bottom part on one window, I noticed that there is a hole in the drywall that’s not patched. It’s a big hole that they left and I guess I would just patch it. Still, we’re really happy with the windows and the sliding door. We have skunks in the neighborhood and the whole time before, we would be smelling the skunk smell in the house. Now, we don't smell the skunk smell inside the house at all. One night, I was going to let the dog out and when I opened up the door, I got hit with the smelly skunk. Overall, we recommend Renewal by Andersen.

    This is strictly on the sales experience. The sales rep that came to my house was very personable and professional. He wanted to provide his spiel on the windows and what separates Andersen in the market. I explained that I was looking to replace 7 windows. He asked if I wanted to hear finance options. I said no, not right now as it depended on the cost of the windows. He then stated that if I were going to base my criteria strictly on cost then he was going to be the most expensive and that it probably wouldn't be a good fit.

    He asked what the estimates were that I had already received. I told him. He said he would be more than this, most likely over 16K. I never saw a sample window, he never took measurements. He just basically assumed I was strictly price driven I guess or he based it off of the fact that I live in a condo and therefore didn't want to spend the money? Not sure. He was at my house less than 10 minutes. I appreciate that he didn't want to waste my time, but honestly whatever window I decide to go with I'm paying cash. I'm not financing and I think he jumped to assumptions.

Said door would probably need to be replaced and threshold and trim, door lock all either not installed or installed improperly. Door not square. Basic carpentry. 3rd visit. No paper trail left with me. No call back by anyone from Renewal. Called salesman. He said he would look into the issues. Heard nothing. I called GreenSky finance company to stop payment.

At the installation they put in a damaged piece of window trim. I stated I was not happy with the defective piece and wanted it replaced. In the beginning of Aug I took of work and they came out with the wrong repair order (nothing to do with the window trim). Then was told I needed to give them information on what needed to be replaced! Two of their techs (the initial installation tech and the second tech from the wasted visit) had already taken pictures and put the product number in their system to order. At that point they told me the part was ordered.

    I called back several times (the customer service department has a hard time doing their job) and was told the part arrived. They scheduled another appointment for today at 9. At 8 they called and said the part did not arrive on the truck! Over two months after the installation, several phone calls, and two wasted visits that I had to take time off work for and still no replacement of the defective part! I would not recommend Renewal by Anderson to anyone that wants a company that delivers a quality product (why do you install a part that is defective???) or has any customer service!

    Updated 09/22/2019: This is the second review I am writing on this experience. After 6 months waiting on a part I wrote a review here... the following week I was notified that the replacement part was to arrive on the 12th of September. On the 16th I called to see when the part that was received last week would be installed. Why am I not surprised.... they told me it was on BACK ORDER. I can't wait to hear the next excuse.

    Original review: I have a part missing on my sliding glass door screen and every week for the last 16 weeks have been told its on its way. I could have walked there and back. Service is the worst and the customer service at Tunda Land in Kaukauna is even worse.

    I have a rental that is an older home. I am doing a remodel in preparation to sell the property. I would like all of the windows replaced and they will need to be custom ordered. I contacted Andersen windows and spoke with Pamela ** and was told that since it is not my primary residence I wouldn’t want their windows, so no need for them to even come out. She said that I should just call someone else. I then read some of the reviews and thought maybe she was doing me a favor. I don’t know how a company can stay in business with this type of approach. After that conversation I will never use this company's service, I can now only imagine the incompetence that they might bring to a job.

    A most disappointing experience. 3 different salesmen/measurers came by over a period of several weeks. Eventually made a proposal, we paid one-third down payment, they promised to do the job, guaranteed they could. After another pause, we were abruptly told they would withdraw -- apparently uncertain if they could in fact do the necessary repair work (Renewal by Andersen may be good at ordering windows from the Andersen factory, but not so confident they can do anything else). Check for refund took some time in coming; they needed regular prompting. Wasted a good part of the summer (5 weeks delay). We recommend you find a reliable local builder to install an Andersen (or any other) window. We did. Customer in Massachusetts.

    Updated on 10/04/2019: After finally getting someone out to repair 6 of 8 windows my original complaint about customer service is resolved hopefully. Just have little confidence in the long term life of the windows with issue after only 20 months in service.The next rain storm will be the final test of the fix.

    Updated on 09/30/2019: Window repair man did show up and is currently working on our windows. Remains to be seen if this will stop the leak and recaulking will hold up. I honestly don't believe I would use them again although the initial sale and installation was excellent. It's the life of the window frame I'm most concerned with. Anyway for now it is resolved.

    Original Review: Initial installation went well and done in a timely manner. After 1 1/2 years some of the joint seams are separating and one leaked. After finding the original installers are no longer associated with Renewal I've contacted the new company on two occasions and told I'd soon be contacted. Hasn't happened. Am very disappointed in the warranty coverage. Would not recommend Renewal by Andersen based on this problem.

    First let me say I decided to utilize Renewal by Andersen services and products because of their premium Windows reviews, customer service, and expertise with installation. Unfortunately I have been very disappointed with the installation on the outside of my home. Large gaps were left on the top of each window and raw wood was cracked and exposed. I took several pictures and spoke with several customer service representatives on multiple occasions but still no resolution and it has been over 3 months since my install date.

    I ended up having to finish the job myself due to lack of response. I still have one seal on a window that is rolled but can't get anyone to repair after many attempts to call various representatives. Before Andersen leaves on the day of the install please triple check all work - based on my experience you will have trouble having anything done after you sign the paperwork on the day the installers leave. My fault for not getting on a ladder to inspect all work. I spent a lot of money for professional service which I didn't receive.

    Well first we called and got an appointment for an estimate. They came out within a week, on time and ready to give us an estimate based on what we needed done and also gave us some ballpark ideas on future projects. The person was nice and I felt comfortable asking him questions. After we made a down payment and the windows came in they set up an appointment for install. We ended up needing to change it a few times on our end due to another project (driveway issues). They did not give us any problems and on the day we scheduled they came out on time.

    The people working, Taras and Yurri **. had such a great work ethic. They came happy, clean, talked about the project, nice to nosy neighbors but kept working hard the whole time. I was amazed at their work. We did the whole upper story windows and they make each room look remodeled. I had no idea new windows could make such a difference. The windows I chose were easy to use and came with screens. Yurri patiently showed me how to use them and take them out to clean. (They also didn’t complain about how bad my old windows were) This pair of guys worked well together, I feel very lucky to have had them on my job. I can’t speak for how everyone else’s crew works but I stand behind these two. At the end I checked over everything and signed off on the job.

    Wish I had read reviews prior - I had 2 friends who had great results with their windows and did not look deeper into the outfit. The door design allowed for inadequate opening of the slider. For this much $ they should have easily been able to cut the bumper and plug in an exterior door handle that would add 3.5" more to the opening width. They came out said "this is the window you bought - here look at the contract! If you modify the window in any way the warranty is VOID!"

    I should have arranged to pay them directly in increments with 20% withheld for final approval rather than falling for a Green Sky interest free loan. The trim job on the door had some flaws and the window turned out to be warped so it didn't close properly. They will not come out to attempt to fix this for over a month - we can't shellac and finish up AND I have zero confidence they can properly fix these problems. I should have done it myself or used Lowe's with a special side agreement with the installation contractor for finishing. I would have saved at least $2,000 and a lot of aggravation.

    Kyle came to our home prepared for any questions we could throw at him. The sample product and demonstration in keeping the heat out (a necessity in Arizona) is what sold us. Having worked for a window manufacturing company in the past I knew what to ask from the casement to the frame to the type of glasses and process they used to make the custom windows.

    The installation crew came out on time and worked tirelessly through a 115 degree day to get our windows in before the hottest part of the day. Although they experienced a little difficulty in removing a few of the old windows in our stucco sided home, they were very communicative as to the issues. There was some minor damage to drywall from the reciprocating saw cutting from the outside they quickly arranged to repair it. The key to our satisfaction is they communicated with us from the sales visit to getting the repairs set up and taken care of and every step in between.

    Immediately after installation we notice the new metal door was buckling in the corner of the window in the door, almost like someone tightened a screw too much. We had Andersen take a look. They assured us we dented the door. A year later we noticed the door buckled in the same spot on the outside of the door, an identical instance of the corner by the window caving in. We had an Andersen technician come out to assess the door again, and this time he agreed the door had a manufacturing flaw given the unusual similarities in how the door warped around the window edges.

    Andersen, despite the obvious manufacturing flaw, ultimately told us the door is now out of warranty. Keep in mind we first raised this issue soon after the door was installed, well within the warranty. The customer service woman was so rude and obnoxious. I just wish I never bought doors from this window company. Buyers beware. Don't buy doors from a window company.

    I received a quote from Renewal By Anderson today. It was insanely expensive. Two windows after supposedly good discounts was $5500 and 4 windows was $8000. This is just out of the range of reality. I can go by top of the line Anderson windows regular install windows for 1/3 this number (which my sales person agreed was true). Replacement windows are supposed to less expensive. I found it disturbing that he tried to tell me that their replacement windows are better than the original product.

    I would not recommend Renewal by Andersen. We had trouble from the day of the installation. One window was installed incorrectly and during the heavy rains one window had a massive leak because the window was installed improperly. When Andersen returned to fix the leak they told us we had to buy a different window because to fix the leak they needed to do additional framing which would cost several thousand dollars more. After standing our ground Andersen came up with a solution so we did not have to purchase a new window. Problem solved but very stressful.

    The installation took many visits because of various issues. We ordered black frames and once the new windows were installed we noticed a silver chrome line at the top of two windows which was not on the third window. These windows do not match the other windows in the house, they face the street, and look awful. Austen our project manager was emailed and contacted about this issue and has not returned our calls or email. Of course, because we already paid in full. I would never use this company again, nothing but problems.

    We liked the quality of the product as well the service that they brought when installing. And we liked the reviews we had gotten from other people as well.

    The rep we dealt with was perfectly fine, too. We had two sliding patio doors installed. Renewal by Andersen told us there would be a certain number of weeks when the doors would be in. But then, they ended up calling and saying something happened. I don't know if the doors got back ordered or they had some scheduling issues, but then they had to push us off for a couple of weeks, and we scheduled the installation. So, the installation ended up a couple of weeks later than we originally had planned.

    During the installation, there were two guys here and they were clean with their work. They were really neat. They were respectful of the home and our family, too. They took their time and they talked me through a couple of things that popped up. They let me know what was going on and then after they did it, they walked me through everything and showed me all about the doors and their different features. So, they did a good job.

    Had the sales person come by and they spent their time convincing me to spend the money on these doors with a really nice interest rate and 6 months same as cash/no payments. Turn around and unsurprisingly my credit wasn't good enough for this deal and was talked into a higher interest rate but the six months same as cash/no payments was completely ignored and the fact that this feature was not part of the deal was not mentioned. I pointed out several times I wanted this in order to get my finances in a bit better order and do some "house cleaning." Find out today that my payment is due starting next month which is not what I expected. The windows and door were well installed and the guys did a good job cleaning up. Too bad their sales and finance are such scam artists. Do this if you can pay upfront. Sadly wasn't in my budget for the year (my mistake) but will go with a different vendor for the rest of the house when I have the money.

    We like Andersen. Their reps were all friendly and great. We did half of our house with them about two years ago and now, we did the second half. The first project two years ago was the back half of the house, and it was all kinds of windows. And the second project, which is just recently, was the front half but also different kinds of windows. So, we have our whole house now done by them. We wouldn’t have ordered if they weren’t fantastic. Both projects took only one day each, and the people who were here to install did a good job. They were very fast and efficient.

    I had my windows installed 5/21/2019. First of all I’m a single mother, and I wasn’t informed that contractors was coming to my home w/a different name advertised on their shirt. I had other contractors coming and walking through my house that wasn’t working on the job. Just coming to see the head guy in charge of the other company (safety issues). The windows that they took off of my house was kept overnight in my yard w/o my notification. A bag of trash was left in my master bedroom overnight, filthy blinds was put on my toddler bed, my furniture wasn’t put back in place.

    Blinds were left in my floor (all tangled up), glass left in my yard, branches broke off my tree was left in my yard. I had to suggest a walkthrough, white chalk used on the front of my house, and clear used in the back, no rotten wood replaced, windows wasn’t clean and my curtain was left lying around. A person was sent to clean my window, pick up glass (which I am still finding) and to pick up the branches. Overall I wasn’t satisfied.

    In January 2019 we replaced all of our main floor and upper level windows and installed a sliding glass door where we had French doors. More that 43k later, we have pretty windows during the day, but about a third of our evenings and early mornings we can't see out of the windows because they are fogged up so badly with condensation on the outside of the windows. ALL of the windows. Also appears that there is sticker residue on a couple of the windows. Andersen has been out twice to "clean" the windows, stating that there may be a film on them that was not removed properly.

    Months later, I still clearly see a huge circle in our living room window, and all of the windows continue to fog. This evening is it 74 degrees in our home, 72 degrees outside and all of the windows and sliding glass door are fogged. I am SO disappointed and will never recommend Andersen. Friendly people, but absolutely no resolution at this point. I have a lot of photos of the fogging and we've been sending them in. Will start grabbing videos to share because I don't want anyone else to be paying for windows that are quite frankly, embarrassing. Instead of increasing our home's value I believe it has taken value away. Will continue to pursue this matter.

    Our experience with RBA has been the ultimate worst ever and we have renovated two homes so this review is being stated, not lightly and with experience with many contractors & companies over the past 12 years. Our windows were ordered in November and after we placed the order the salesperson never actually placed the order. When we tried to cancel we were told that we had already been charged 1/2 the amount and it was non-refundable. When I told them to hold on to ordering so that I could see what the financing company had to say they went ahead and ordered the windows.

    The financing company is obviously owned by RBC because they were not able to help in any way. Their contract does not protect the consumer at all & the things the sales person told us were absolute lies. The windows were installed in April and the crew that installed them blocked our roadway after I instructed them where to park, had loud music with profanities playing in our suburban family neighborhood and then at the end of installation they told me all my plantation shutters are not operational & the functionality of the window is deterred because of the plantation shutters. SCAM!!!!

    The sales person went over and over about how beautiful the windows would look with the plantation shutters and the person that measured even mentioned them...Now we are getting a letter from the VP acting like he is doing us a favor by attempting to make his product operation. I’m wondering if it’s only because we haven’t signed the paperwork that the job is complete and they can’t charge us the other 1/2 of the amount. DO NOT USE RBA. Our neighbors whom our sales person said loved the RBA windows were not pleased and went with another company to do the remainder of their home.

    The VP is now sending us an email that says that page 8 section 8 states that RBA cannot guarantee the proper fit of window treatments...How kind of them...This is a money scam. All the people are older adults and are not idiots. They know exactly what they are doing and are just trying to get any $ they can without regard for the actual person, home and community.

    I did not research the prices as I should have as there was a confluence of distractions in my life at the time of purchase. The sales person said that they would be slightly higher than Home Depot. Once I got settled, I went to Home Depot to compare the same door which was the Frenchwood 400 series. Home Depot priced out the same door with install for 3500.00 dollars less. On top of that, I was led to believe that the installers from Andersen were badged employees, and they are not. Good thing I did not close on a second door that I have and the 36 windows that I was considering doing with them. I will never buy a door or window from this company again. I will go with another company and get more value for my money.

    Disappointing experience from a company with such a good reputation. They forced out the wrong window and when I pointed this out, they just hammered the damaged window back into place as if it was just business as usual. No apologies or offer of compensation. They also damaged a Cable TV line and it took them weeks to make this simple repair. As far as the product, they still use the old so called "lick and stick" trim that many other companies don't use any more. It has only been a month and it is already warped and peeling off and so our brand new windows looks like they are many years old!

I had two small double-hung windows with a big picture window in between the first time I had Renewal by Andersen. I had that all replaced with one big window that has two sliders, one in each end. This last time, I had them design a kitchen window for me because I had two double-hung windows there, and they didn't work very well. It was so bad that I broke one of the windows.

We got the window replaced and the defective frames repaired. However, when all was said and done we still didn't really have a finished installation. The inside trim was unfinished wood with gaps between trim and drywall. The outside was roughly trimmed with unfinished pine and a lot of caulk, with jagged metal on one joint. At this point I elected to finish the job myself. Also, after all the delays the customer feedback form had expired and they wouldn't provide another one.

    First, the installers scratched up the frame around the screens on one of the windows which I'm still waiting to get replaced. Second, now there's a seam that's opened up on one of the windows where it attaches to the frame inside in the kitchen. I paid a lot of money for these windows which I thought were top of the line and so far I am not impressed. I expected better than this especially for the price I paid. And I am concerned that this will happen to the rest of the windows that were installed.

    Renewal by Andersen had a promotion and it was buy one, get one window at 40% off. When I called them, it turned out that it wasn’t exactly that, but it was still a good deal. It was also easy to schedule someone who would come out and take a look. The whole process was incredible and I was super impressed. The guy who came out was very knowledgeable, really friendly and very respectful. He told me how much it would cost. Then he scheduled the guy to come out and do the measuring and all the other stuff. And that guy was fantastic. They offered to give me another percent off if I signed that day, which I did. I was already gonna go with it if it came in within my budget, so it wasn't really a hard sell for me. I could also finance it without putting any money down which was a great deal.

    Essentially, I replaced the windows with a similar style where the large section in the middle doesn’t open and the two on the side are sliders. Everybody who was involved was great and the whole thing was fantastic. I already recommended Renewal by Andersen to someone else. I’m absolutely thrilled with the windows.

    We needed to replace about 30 windows in our 25-year-old home. I conducted quite a bit of research to determine which company to go with. Each company visited us, measured windows and sent us a quote. Renewal by Andersen (RA) is different however. RA requires that both spouses participate in a 90-minute sales pitch, which concludes with a “commit contractually now” discount. We were impressed with the window quality even though the price was almost twice as much as the second contender, Pella.

    After ~ 6 weeks build time, we experienced the normal sloppiness of installation workers and RA dutifully addressed all of that. The more meaningful problem however, is that you cannot install inside-mount cellular shades on RA windows (at least ours). This resulted in a >$9K unexpected expense to an already high priced project. Fenstermann Blinds, a German company with German prices, provide the only solution (who interestingly was very familiar with the RA limitation in this regard). Most internally mounted cellular blinds cannot be used as they are 1.5 to 2 inches deep and RA windows allow only a ½ inch for blind installation.

    RA’s response that “it’s in the contract”. That statement, while being accurate, does not hold much moral weight given you have a “sign now” discount pressuring you to sign and not read a contract. Ideally, the salesperson would have explained the fine print as a part of an ethical sales process. I spoke with the regional manager, Mark **, about this suggesting that I would go ahead and buy the remaining $16K of windows if RA would consider a token discount to acknowledge the unexpected blinds expense ($1 k to $2 k for example). Have not heard anything back from RA yet and do not expect to.

    We had a couple windows done by Andersen and they were great. We were waiting to have more money to do the bigger picture window in the living room. The rep told us that they were not selling the same windows. They had an upgrade and it costs more. But we misunderstood him. So we had Home Depot who had the same windows, install the bigger window but they hired the poorest installers that the least money could buy. Although it was not a bad job, it wasn't a professional one either.

    I had stucco and a little was chipped before they started. I asked the guy to finish it off but he didn't have a product to do that. Then, he wanted to charge me more money to have it done but I said no. So he came back but I wasn't home. My husband said he pulled the product to fix the problem out of his truck and it was all dried up. Also, I was gonna have Home Depot come out again and put it in the other windows. They were sending out a guy to measure but he didn't show up. The guy called me and said he hadn't gotten the job ticket to call me and come out from Home Depot.

    So I paid at least $1,500 more to get an Andersen installer and got a really good, professional and quickly done job. They handled everything. It was expensive but I wasn't stressing out whether the job is done right or if I have ethical people working in my house. The quality of the windows they installed was great. We've got them in just when the hot weather was coming in and it has kept the house much cooler. We love Renewal by Andersen and it was worth the extra money.

The guy doing the outside work was literally running off the ladder. He was working his tail off. Then they sent two guys to do the windows and another crew to do the sliders. Because I had two big sliders to be done, those guys worked strictly on the sliders. One of the guys found some rot under the old slider when he took it out. He took all the rotted wood out and put a new piece in before he put the new slider in. That was a nice touch. I bought everybody steak tips and then we had a good time.

    We had an issue with some of the sliders though. When they unpacked it, it had some broken pieces so I set up an appointment with Renewal by Andersen.

    We have Andersen windows in the house and our old patio door was an Andersen. Then recently, we had Renewal by Andersen come out and change that patio door. The man who came out for the replacement did a great job. I also talked to him and he was very nice, very thorough, wasn’t pushy at all, and explained everything to us really well. He was very businesslike and friendly, too. There were a couple of things in there that we didn’t know about. We got rotten wood and he just went about replacing them then explained it to us. So, he took his time and he was here for the better part of the day.

    So far, we are very happy with the quality of our new door. Our other one opened but this one is a slider. We now have better view looking out in the back and watching the deer. We also had Renewal by Andersen come out and adjust the lock on the door. Then we had an emergency while we were here and the guy went about taking care of that, then he left. We didn’t even know that the man had left but he finished doing what he was doing and we were very happy with him. It's just that he left and didn't say anything. But it dawned on us later on that our next-door neighbor’s dog attacked my dog and it was bad. And this poor man had just gotten bit the week before that by a German Shepherd. Other than that, I would recommend Renewal by Andersen.

    Renewal by Andersen replaced 16 windows. They gave a timeline and they were within that. In fact, the replacement took one day and a half. The representative was very knowledgeable and worked well. The customer service as well as the installation people were excellent. The windows seemed to be what they had stated it would be, and they're very good. The biggest thing about the heating element is it's involved with the sound element. The wind and the noises have been diminished dramatically.

    I used Renewal by Andersen before and I used them again. I got windows that are tilt in to clean and they are great. There are no leaking problems. They had one problem with one window that was measured wrong and they fixed it. They came back and took care of the last window. The windows were made especially for my mother’s house. The quality is top-of-the-line and we're very pleased with it. They are a little more expensive than other replacement windows, but we’re not gonna have to worry about them again. They have a lifetime guarantee. My brother has installed windows himself. He’s used the ones from the box store, and he’s had to replace them within 10 years.

    Renewal by Andersen was wonderful in every way. They were great with communicating with me. We had one little issue with the caulking because when they put the caulking on the outside of the window, the weather was cold and it didn’t set properly. I called them about it, and they came right out and took care of it. And it’s been no problem since.

    We had two Renewal By Andersen sliding glass doors installed in Oct 2018. During the installation the doors were found to have manufacturing defects. Since the defects were visual and did not affect the function of the door, they finished installation and ordered new doors. Approximately 6 weeks later the new doors showed up and again, the doors were defective. The finish was scratched on one and the other was so warped that it would not fit into the slot in the frame to close. Again, two more doors were ordered and scheduled for install. The next install date had to be rescheduled 3 times due to "manufacturing issues" at the factory. The 3rd set of doors finally showed up and were installed on Apr 27, 2019. And while they look and function great, we were expecting far better factory quality for the price we paid.

    We are extremely happy with the Arizona distributor and their installation team, absolute professionals and great to deal with. The doors are nice, as they should be for $15,000 for the pair. If you are willing to be flexible and wait for six months as we did, they will eventually get you the product you paid for. There are several good door and window companies to choose from, some less $ and some more $. Do good research before you decide and pay attention to review dates as they tell a story for current conditions. Maybe hold off payment until installation is final? RBA, please don't feel obligated to copy and paste one of your stupid canned replies I have read on the other negative reviews. This is for people researching their next window or door project, not for you. Your next job is easy, fire your quality control management team and start over!

    Updated on 08/18/2019: I don't see my earlier review about Andersen. We ordered both windows and French doors in April. Window were installed correctly. My French doors had a crack on the left panel. I was told that they would make a new one in MN. In the meantime, they didn't have the correct hardware. We now have blackish bronze door knobs, and bright golden brass. After waiting a long time to schedule a return appointment, we were scheduled to finish the job Aug. 6th. They came on time... but again they did NOT have the correct parts.. No door hinges. At least they had a door panel, but We are STILL waiting to hear from them as to when we will finally have this project done.

    So from April to mid-August; we are still waiting. Meanwhile my girlfriend also had her windows changed. She chose a local company and was finished in a few weeks. Wondering why this is happening to us??? FYI They will hard sale you: they will give you a discount BUT only if you take it while the salesman is in your house. Make them your last call because not everyone can afford them. While we do like the windows, I just can't give them more stars because the wait is ridiculous.

    Original Review: Things you should know: yes their products are the best, if you have the sales rep come to your house he will give you a quote but it's a, "Take it now or the price goes up" if I leave situation. Make them your last call. They are not cheap, so expect to pay a premium. We used them because my husband did like their windows and looked at them at an Expo ahead of time. So the decision was already made to get them.

    On installation day, the team came and the crew did a fine job and did a very nice clean up. Had two Supervisors come to watch demo. They saw the workmen carrying heavy windows out and neither bothered to help. Wish they were here at the end of of the day cause that's when things go wrong. Our windows came out great. Just FYI, noticed that there are no handhelds to open or close. But the French doors are not finished. Our doors are white and we ordered white handles. We got brass hinges, bronze handles and a black threshold. Also one door panel had a crack in it, so they have to remake it in Minnesota.

    It's been a month now, still waiting. They will give you a list of "team members", but most of them don't answer your e-mails nor answer your phone call. I finally got one nice guy to look into it. He says while the hardware is here, there doesn't seem to be any order for a new panel. Hard to make plans wondering when the doors will be finished. We also were having security screen doors put in, but that's now on hold because they need to see the measurements of a finished French door. I live in LA, hoping the Torrance team can fix this matter. Seem like nice people...if you can catch them.

    I am a retired senior citizen and on February 1, 2019 I had purchased two brand new picture windows for just under $6000 from their salesman Alex. I ordered laminated windows and Alex told me that these windows were “bulletproof” and then changed it later to “bullet resistant.” Then I found out later from the General Manager, Steve and the corporate office of Andersen windows that that fact is not true. I guess it was just a sales tactic I said to Steve and he told me, "We try to gain our customers' trust." I thought, "That's sure a strange way of doing it." On April 8, I had my two new windows installed at my home. After installation, I found several flaws in between the glass. There was a bubble at eye level, black smudges and scratches and these flaws were not fixable. I immediately contacted the contractor and their representative Mr. Luis ** was sent to my home the next day.

    Mr. ** inspected my windows and took photos of the defects. He told me that two new windows would be ordered and delivered on May 17. He also reassured me, that when his store receives my second pair of windows, he personally would inspect them for defects. On May 17, my second pair of windows were installed and again, the same issues were visible. I guess my windows weren't inspected as promised by Mr. **. These windows had a small bit of debris in between the glass and then later, I noticed numerous scratches inside and out and smudges between the glass. These windows are very expensive and with the Andersen seal on them, you think you would be getting a quality product because of their reputation, but something must have changed with their manufacturing process for this to happen TWICE.

    These are windows that should have been rejected at the factory and not delivered at my home. But money seems more important than customer satisfaction. These windows are now permanent at my home and I'm stuck having to live with them knowing the problems they have. The contract that I signed, seems to protect the company, but who protects me? My money was purchasing brand spanking new windows and not flawed one. If I knew ahead of time I was going to get such merchandise, I would have canceled my order. Flawed merchandise seems to be a continuous problem with this company and as a customer, I should not have to pay for this. But by not paying the remaining amount due, my warranty is void. BUYER BEWARE.

    And I do have to mention the following. While Mr. ** was at my home inspecting my windows he decided to bribe me twice to appease me, First, by offering two free tickets to a show including dinner. Then the second window incident he offered me a free Andersen product. He mentioned a free sliding door but told me that their doors have issues before they’re even installed. He told me that they usually end up with a dent in the frame due to the way they are shipped from Minnesota. I guess he told me that to discourage me from accepting his offer because I rather not continue to have this ongoing NIGHTMARE.

    I have yet to see anything in exchange for the headache they put me through. It would make me very happy to have my hard earned money back though. This purchase was my second one from Renewal. The first purchase was just as bad. Now I have learned the hard way. Do not trust Renewal by Andersen. PERIOD! And take notice on how many complaints this company has received just this month alone.

So, it was installed and then they ordered us a new one, and when it came, they came and switched them. The door has very good quality. We love it.

    We had eight Renewal by Andersen picture and casement windows installed last week. At first glance, we were very excited about the visually-pleasing aesthetics of the windows. Upon further inspection however, every window has a gap in each corner (32 sites) that now needs to be "covered up" according to the company we purchased them from. Apparently we aren't the first customers to have this issue. One gap is almost 1/4"! This is definitely a flaw in the manufacturing of the window and not the installation process.

    We thought we were purchasing windows that have a good track record but obviously this is an issue that Renewal by Andersen can't get right, or doesn't care to. Until this problem is rectified, we would be very hesitant to purchase these windows again. They are not a cheap product by any means, and we don't mind spending the money if we're getting a product that is worth it. We should NEVER have to do additional work to brand new windows to cover up a flaw because Renewal by Andersen can't get their act together. A product that is known to be defective should not continue to be sold!!

    I had Renewal by Andersen rework my Andersen window. My husband installed an Andersen bay window like 35 years ago and it needed updating. The windows were shot and the dual panes were leaking. The vinyl had gone bad but the inside was still good so we left that. Everything was excellent and Renewal by Andersen completed the installation in the timeline provided. They were wonderful. They were always on top of making sure I understood when they were coming out and meeting everybody's need.

    However, it would have been nice if the salesman contacted us one last time or stopped in to look at it and make sure he was happy with everything. He said, "Oh, I'm gonna be out here a lot," but when they were installing, we never have saw him or talked to him since. We signed the contract that night and that was it. The salesman has never contacted me since. Nothing. Not even a phone call. The other thing I'm a little angry about is my son got windows from them. I used him as the referral and they were supposed to pay him $100 which he's never gotten yet. When I brought it up to one of the workers, they said, "Oh, we have to complete the job first."

    Our experience with RbA was terrible and we will be highly recommending to everyone I know that they NOT use Renewal by Andersen. While the initial Sales Representative and Operations Manager separately met with us at our home to provide us a quote/contract and take follow-up measurements, the communication with them beyond this was extremely challenging and I never got the full information they indicated I would receive.

    We initially signed a contract with them due to the Sales Rep indicating that due to the size of the job we would likely have our window installed with 5-6 weeks. We had to give them a 50% deposit upon contract signing and this is where everything went off track. I had to repeatedly initiate contact to try and get status only to receive a voicemail from the Operations Manager FIVE WEEKS AFTER signing the contract stating they would not be able to manufacture our window and would be returning our deposit.

    After repeated attempts to contact the Operations Manager and getting a message that his voicemail was full I sent a text message asking for an explanation why they could not manufacture our contracted window and why I still did not have a credit multiple days later after his message stated it would be processed right away. I never was able to get any further information from them but was finally credited 10 days later for our deposit.

    I truly believe they never intended to produce our window. At one point the sales rep told us he would sell to us even though his boss told him he should not quote us a job of this size. I feel they took our money for 5+ plus weeks knowing they would never honor the contract they made with us. We went to RbA based on the all of the remaining windows in our home being Andersen windows of great quality. RbA is a joke and I am disappointed they are associated with Andersen Windows. We are having to start over with a reputable company to get a much needed replacement window. I will be reporting RbA Alabama to the BBB and filing a complaint with the Attorney General with hope it keeps others from experiencing this type of disservice.

They are going to replace the damage door by July 15.

    Not happy with the outcome. I Purchased windows in a patio door. The cost was over $27,000. I had a problem with the back patio door. It had a chip in it. They said they couldn’t fix it and they won’t replace it. I figured out why there was a chip. When it was installed the installer didn’t adjust the door correctly so I tried to get Andersen to fix the door. They said they couldn’t fix the chip, that it would have to be replaced and that I would have to spend over $1000 for replacement on one side of the door. I’m sorry but when you spend over $27,000 on doors and windows and they tell you that they stand behind their doors and windows and then they tell you you have to purchase another door to replace it because there’s a chip in it it’s a hard pill to swallow. If I would’ve known that they were going to do this I would’ve never gotten Andersen windows because they said they’d stand behind their doors and windows.

    The initial process as far as getting a and getting windows installed quickly was great. We were very impressed by the fact that they were building an hour window frames right in our driveway brand new to put up. We thought, "wow this is great!" What a facade that all was. The installers installed our patio door backwards. When I mentioned to them that it looked weird, they blew me off as if I wasn't even there. I should have known then. We are about 18 months into owning our windows and had tried repeatedly to get them serviced and up to par for what we paid. I don't believe that will ever happen. When we did finally get a service guy out the guy was a condescending jerk.

    Only half of our windows actually lock. And every time we've had someone come out to service them they never seem to have a problem locking them. But when I try, come on, they don't lock. They then tried to explain to me how to lock it as if I'm new to the world. Even showing them that they will not lock for me nothing is ever done. There shouldn't be some sort of trick to locking a window. The windows are incredibly heavy stiff and funny enough did not even come with handles. Those were an extra. On the day of install we were told that and it about blew my mind. The patio door that was originally installed backwards took 5 weeks to be re installed correctly and in the meantime had water leaking through the door. The frames are incredibly cheap even though you're told they're indestructible.

    We had the bathroom window frame crack and a big chunk fall off just by opening the window. It then took several weeks for them to come even look at it and then several more weeks to get the part replaced. We now have the beautiful frames that were built for us literally falling off the wall just from opening the many blind. Not only does it fall off but it hit my husband in the face and he now has a large cut in welt on his eyelid. More of my windows do not lock any longer and all they tell us is to keep them locked when they're closed. And how exactly do you expect me to do that when they don't lock? This company is a joke. We financed the install so when we were calling for over 2 months to get a hold of them about the locks originally with no return call we contacted our finance company. They were also unsuccessful with getting a hold of them. Quite ridiculous.

    When they finally did call us back we were already disputing the charges with our finance company due to the fact that they were not fulfilling their end of the contract by servicing our windows for life. It was a shame that it was only a few weeks after the install. We have had nothing but issues and are finance company is now eating the bill because I refuse to pay it. I will be taking this matter up legally because we are getting no resolution and I paid far too much for these windows for them to put these pieces of garbage In my home instead of the quality windows that I paid for.

    Nice windows and they've worked out well in our 100 yr-old historic home, however the customer experience has been very dissatisfying. In particular:

    1) Was told in person and in writing multiple times that quote included customer interior color. Sales guy called later to say that was a mistake. They wouldn't own the mistake and wouldn't even split the difference on the windows in question.
    2) Installation date had to be rescheduled twice on their account.
    3) One of the windows was cut to the wrong size. Was told 3-4 weeks to get the correct one. 6 weeks later and still don't have it nor have received an update.
    4) Wrong hardware installed initially on a couple of the windows.

    5) And then install crew thought they were done, but 2 windows weren't installed. Three days went by and I had to finally call the "production manager" to ask when they were going to finish. He thought the job was done and he was hearing that for the first time... from me!

The next day was to be the finishing. The painters arrived, did some work, but left scrapes and chipped paint on and around every window, including walls where the tape ripped off paint. When I asked what was going on, the painters said that was the installers’ fault and not their job. I’m left with a mess.

After we were well passed the promised date I left a message with customer service (yes left a message because why would a CS team be available to speak with customers) my windows were magically ready for installation; unless an amazing coincidence it would seem the replacements were ready and no one was managing my project. A year later after starting a recent remodel project, my general contractor pointed out that Andersen installed a window in my shower using a wood frame; of course now warped and window needs to be reinstalled as a result.

    I have been involved in a 2 year battle with Renewal over a patio door they installed but do not fabricate (Provia). The door has never worked properly. Got a lot of lip service at first. Even called my salesman who wouldn’t call back! He already made his money. I have already. Mind you paid them approximately $10,000.00. The door blows open in the locked position and last month we found our dog was outside when we returned home and door was wide open! So of course I have been calling leaving messages and no response.

    Well the other day I get notified I have been turned over to collections. So again for 2 days I keep calling and finally Scott calls back and tells me, “Pay your balance. We will take you out of collections and then fix the door!” Well that’s not how this is going to work Scott! First call to BBB, second call to the Consumer Reporter at News 8, third file paperwork with small claims court and fourth notify my insurance company what has transpired! I could go on with more but two quick things. I have pics and pics don’t lie and they will tell you they use their own people but that is not true. They use subcontractors!

    It started off with a pushy sales rep in our home who got us with the "save 20% by signing up NOW". We were impatient and agreed to have the 17 windows replaced for ~40,000$. Literally that night he leaves and I get the mail and there we have a flyer for the same 20% off that we could have used at any time in the next month and actually thought about our decision, but I guess that was our mistake.

    4 months later two guys show up and begin to hammer out our old lead paint covered windows, taking minimal to no EPA-based lead precautions, starting with our 5 year old son's room, and with everyone in the house! My wife about had a heart attack. She asked "aren't you supposed to cover the windows first with plastic?" and the installer said "no we are taking them out from the outside, you don't need to do that" which is contrary to the EPA-based guidelines and the EPA pamphlet Andersen had provided us (as required by Federal law).

    So, my wife says she is going to call the supervisor and suddenly the installer says, "Oh sure I will put down the plastic. You don't need to call him," but she calls the supervisor guy who spoke to the two installers and told them to take the proper EPA-based precautions. They then took some (put down plastic inside but didn't seal it over furniture. Just laid it, didn't remove any furniture, didn't have us leave the house/area, put some plastic down outside but still the yard is covered in lead paint chips, did seal the interior window with plastic but still took it down to vacuum from the inside, didn't wear plastic booties, etc. We witnessed this and called the supervisor again and he AGAIN had to call the installers and tell them to follow the protocol. We asked for the supervisor to come to the house and he said no he would come out tomorrow (all of this happened today)!

    Overall, this has been a horrible experience. We are located in Swarthmore, PA if that helps you. We had a quote from Pella and apparently made the wrong choice. Not that I know if that they would have been any better, but I don't see how things could go much worse.

She was upfront about the pricing.

    I got two new patio doors and a custom window. I was told approximately when the windows would go in, because they had to be custom made. Their people came and the guys were fine. The crew came early in the morning, so they waited very patiently. I went to work and they called and let me know that the job was done. I came home and everything was done to my satisfaction.

    We chose Renewal by Andersen over other window retailers due to their brand image and recognition here locally in Minnesota. We had them replace the sliding door. They gave us a timeline on how long that would take and they matched that timeline. So, it was two months from placing order until we got the door. The representatives were very professional and answered all our questions.

    It was a one-day installation. I was a little disappointed that the first installation wasn’t going smoothly. The installer should have raised his hand at that point, but he didn’t. Then we saw a commercial and we realized that our door wasn’t opening that smoothly. When they came back out to check the door, they didn't argue but quickly said that they would get it fixed. So, they followed up nicely. They came back and replaced one of the doors which wasn’t sliding smoothly, then they also provided free staining for the whole door. The cost is middle-of-the-road. It’s a little higher than others, but you pay for what you get in the quality. If I need a window or another sliding door to be replaced, I would select and use Renewal by Andersen again.

First the rep came out and looked at everything we needed done, made measurements, and wrote up the order. Then an installation supervisor arrived and re-measured and tagged the windows. Finally, the installation crew came out and finished in an hour less than we'd been told. Everyone was friendly, personable, and professional. They represented the company well. We are impressed with the work ethic and quality of work and the materials. No surprises! Down the line, we'll replace a few more double-hung windows and will hire Renewal by Andersen to do the work.

    Renewal by Andersen is a little bit more expensive but one of the best companies 'cause what they do is they come out, measure, make the windows and put them in. They don’t have all these subcontractors coming and going. In other words, they start right at the beginning of the job to the very end. Their rep was very professional and knew his stuff. He seemed really concerned to make sure everything was done right and then got back to me a couple of times to make sure everything was A-Okay.

    I got two triple glazed slider windows in the bedroom, a patio door and then the living room window had to be custom-made because it was an oblong shape and was almost from floor to ceiling. They wanted to do it in February but here in the Midwest, we have a polar vortex which brings really cold weather with a lot of snow in February. So I said no and they waited until after it was warmer. Luckily, the weather cooperated when the installers came out. They did the two upstairs in the bedrooms in one day. Then they came back and did the other lower level the next day. They were here pretty much for a full eight-hour day and did an excellent job. Renewal by Andersen was well worth it and I would recommend them. They knew exactly what they were doing and the quality was excellent.

    We have been getting our house done and we spend around $10,000 each time. This is the third time we purchased from Andersen windows so we're obviously happy with them. We purchased some sliders as well as double hung windows and while the quality of the windows are good, I thought I was getting a deal. I thought it was gonna be $10,000 but when I saw the invoice, it said $12K. Other than that, the installation went great and Melissa did a great job. Andersen has a reputation for being pricey but you get what you pay for.

    We saw an ad for Renewal by Andersen in one of those flyers that come out weekly. We needed to get our windows done, and they seemed like a good thing. I called them and they had a good warranty. They were also local. In addition to that, the reps I worked with were awesome. They were friendly and professional. We ended up getting a custom-built window and two smaller windows for our attic which is on a 1908 home. When the installers were here, they took care of everything outside. I liked it because I work from home and I didn't even notice the installation. We were downstairs and they were in the attic so it didn't change my daily life. The windows are fantastic.

    Just had our sliding door replaced, can’t say enough about the experience we had with Renewal by Anderson. I’ll start with the sales rep Jeff, he gave a complete power point presentation, that would impress the most skeptical out there! He demonstrated how the U.V. glass repels heat, and how smooth the Anderson double rollers work, and the quality of the Anderson line, he really knows his product.

    The installers did a great job, they completed the removal & installed the new slider in just under 3 hours, did a great job on the out side caulking and complete cleanup, but I had one little problem, the style of the handles on the slider prevents the door from being opened to its max, you lose about 2 1/2 “because of the D shape. Looks Great but I wanted the extra couple inches so I contacted my sales rep Jeff, explained what I needed and he got right on it, called me back after talking with the manufacturer and came up with a couple of options to replace the outside handle and give us the extra 2 1/2”. I really appreciate the extra effort Jeff went to.

    We've researched many different brand and companies to replace our patio door and what strikes me the most is when you call Renewal by Andersen, they refuse to give any prices even approximately on how much the patio door would cost, even after I provided rough opening measurements and asked for just rough numbers, just to have an idea about a range.

    No wonder that they wouldn't give any information over the phone because now, that I see people's reviews and how much this company charges, it's insane! So after I called them twice and both times asked for an estimate over the phone just so I would see if their prices worth my time to schedule an in home consultation with them, they both times refused to give me any information whatsoever over the phone. So I moved on! And so I recommend you to go to your local Menard's or Home Depot, or Lowe's and get it arranged there. That's what I'll do - it will be cost efficient and still with a good quality.

    Hi Kateryna, thanks for taking a minute to reach out about your experience with us. It's very likely that when you called, you spoke to our scheduling department. They do not have pricing information. And because our windows and patio doors are custom crafted to fit the exact measurements of each opening, we offer many different window styles, and there are so many features to choose from, you'll need to set up a free in-home consultation with one of our design consultants in order to get pricing specific to your project. During your consultation, you'll have the opportunity to learn more, ask questions, have your windows measured, and learn about special offers and financing in your area. After your initial consultation, they'll leave you with accurate window or patio door pricing good up to one year. Windows and patio doors are a big investment, and we want you to make the most informed choice available. Having said that, I am sorry for your experience and for the inconvenience this cased. I'll be forwarding your feedback along to the team in your area and want you to know we'll use your comments to better our processes. Thanks again for reaching out. Whoever you decide to go with, we wish you the best of luck with your home improvement project. Enjoy your weekend.

    Renewal by Andersen did a patio door which went great from start to finish. It took six weeks to get the patio door, and then they were here for three hours. They were very professional and they did a good job. Everything turned out good. The cost is high, but hopefully we have a good quality product.
