Hi Kirk, Here too. Anderson windows are made in Wausau Wisconsin, and other places I'm sure. They have decided to do a direct to customer business model. Marvin goes direct to builders and pays the builder if the customer chooses their windows. Good margins , but getting competitive. It's a big job and things go slowly. Architect took almost a year. Worked on unnecessary things and held back on what I really needed which was a structural engineer report. Padded the bill, and frustrated me. He does very nice work, but not what I asked for from the beginning. Part of their (or at least his game). It has been a ton of work.
