Our experience left a lot to be desired.. from the overly lengthy consultation to the final bid this place is solely after emptying your checking account.
We consulted with seven local companies, all of which were within about 2-3k of one another for a comparable product. However, Renewal by Andersen was 4x the cost of highest quote from the other five companies. To put this into perspective the highest was 18k and renewal came in at 68k WHAT IN THE WORLD!! These windows are not fully automatic with self cleaning options.. LOL
I am not sure how people justify paying the kind of money they are seeking but I can tell you they are great salesman and will Nickle and Dime your pocketbook. We were impressed with the demonstration but called back to cancel once the saleswoman left.. because I thought she would never leave!
When I brought up my concerns they forwarded me to a "regional manager" who actually had construction background and he just said that we needed to talk to our salesman about the exorbitant cost... that went nowhere and since then have hired a trustworthy company who didn't try to sell us some "proprietary" product to inflate their cost.
Bottom line, it doesn't matter how much you can afford... this place is a nothing but gold diggers
