Building a Home Windows

Fiberglass windows

3 years ago

I'm looking at fiberglass as a less expensive alternative to aluminum clad that still has a wood interior with SDL grids. Considering Marvin Elevate but wondering if there are any other options to look at. I can't find much in the way of reveiws on the Windsor Legands and it looks like Pella Impervia and Jeld Wen Auraline are not wood on the interior. I will be doing white interior and exterior.

Thanks!

While there will always be some negative feedback on a particular brand or product line when you sell enough of it, the product combination that you are describing is best fulfilled by the Elevate.

They are out there but not many have much in the way of good things to say any of them.
