We (Dalco) recently signed a contract with a gentleman; we’ll call him Mr. Jones, to replace the windows in his home. After concluding, Mr. Jones thanked us for the way we conducted our business and then wanted to pass on his experience with one of the $189 window companies.
He began by saying he was “a little skeptical at the $189 price, but thought it worth looking in to.”
He went on, “You know the old saying; ‘if it looks too good to be true’, well it was!”
Mr. Jones continued, “Yes, I could have a double hung window for $189.00; but, if I wanted a screen-extra, if I exterior trimmed-extra, Low-E or the Argon-extra, grids-extra.”
“As it turned out; the $189 guy’s final price for my double hung windows with all the things I wanted, and that you [Dalco] included; was more!”
But, the story didn’t end there. “Your Dalco bid also included a small picture window in the bathroom and a casement window in the kitchen……”
Mr. Jones exclaimed, “The $189 guy’s quote for that little window in the bathroom (a window with NO working parts) was $477.00 installed….that’s more than twice the advertised $189.00 price…and no working parts! And, the kitchen window, I won’t even talk about!”
“Well”, Mr. Jones said, “I’m sure glad I took a look at Dalco’s prices before I signed. I saved some money and relearned an old lesson!”
We’re glad Mr. Jones decided to invite Dalco to install his new windows and even more so he made the correct decision to check out the final pricing before placing his order with one of the $189 guys. Thanks Mr. Jones and remember us for your other remodeling needs…Dalco!
