A door to door salesman stopped by offering to give us a quote on windows the other day. Erin tried to politely tell them that we wanted windows but weren't interested. However, they took that as, we'll come by and give you a demo.
Tonight the demo took place. Midstate Windows and Sidings I was a bit shocked that the salesman didn't have a business card, didn't have any pamphlets to leave behind for us to look at, and wrote out the estimate for us on a torn quarter sheet of legal pad. It seemed very unprofessional for everything. The price quoted in order to put in the windows that we are looking for seems to be a pretty fair price, but the salesman himself seemed unprofessional.
I doubt we do it. He said they help with financing, but what they do is submit a loan application for a home equity loan for us, in our name. We've only lived in this house for 2 years, I'm not ready to take out another loan against the house in order to get windows.
For now, I think we will have to pass on the offer, but who knows, maybe next year our finances will be better and we'll be able to work something out.

You know there was good that came from this, we know what we both want and are thinking for windows and we know that the more complicated projects can be done in 1 day by professionals, rather than over a year by us:) We think the bedroom is cold now-imagine it with just a tarp pver a hole in the wall. OOOO but then we would match the neighbors.
