Response from Champion Windows & Home Exteriors:
"There are reasons Champion has been in business since 1953 and proudly services over two million consumers. There are also obvious reasons why this past year has been very different than others. As the one nationwide provider that sells, manufacturers, installs and warranties its products through 100% company-owned locations, the impacts of Covid caused major backlogs to our supply chain and wreaked havoc on our workforce that cannot work remotely, particularly factory workers, operations, service techs and installers. We want consumers to know that initiatives are underway to demonstrate we’re committed to improving our service levels, completing jobs as soon as possible and honoring our warranty.”
