      We had four sliders installed, which totaled about $30,000 and it took two years for the project to be completed. We were told six months is what they allow. Multiple tech came out to do repairs, all four doors had re-orders and/or reinstalled multiple times and we also had parts that were re-ordered multiple times. on top of that we had text doing touchups and our driveway. We even caught the techs refurbishing the door when we paid for new and then they lied to us about it when asked. **************** is horrible and it was very difficult to get a hold of anyone who can make any kind of decisions. We often never received a call back and were always the ones who had to initiate the conversation or call to get a status update. We had inquired of our compensation and were denied to have any part of the conversation until the project was complete. Once the project was complete I tried reaching back out to have the conversation and its been two months now and this hasnt been resolved. We have a compensation claim them and they are not willing to accommodate fairly. One of the managers I spoke to said they didnt make any money on our project. This is not our fault as the customer. We had taken several days off of work, lost pay and rearranged our schedule for two years for them. We were more than accommodating. Our experience has been absolutely horrible. If they were in our shoes as a customer, it would be unacceptable but yet they provide this is they can do as a response. For two months, I have requested to speak to the president of this company and have been transferred to others instead. I received a call today that the president did not want to speak to me and that he has been on vacation (for over a month now). This is unacceptable. A very small, insulting compensation amount was provided to us, to which does not even cover the cost of one door and I have been told that this is the max they are prepared to give. We need a resolution to this.

      We signed a contract for the build and installation of four windows and one front door and paid JLM Windows, LLC (DBA: Renewal By ********) $21,000.00 on 5/23/24. Almost a year later (today is 5/13/25), the project is not complete. Our building permit has expired and must be updated and extended so we can clear the permit from our home with **************. The county will not schedule an inspection until the contractor updates and extends the permit. After numerous attempts (Feb., March, April, and May) to have Renewal By ******** change and extend the building permit and request an inspection, the company has become unresponsive leaving us without a resolution.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. However, we are still missing the hurricane panels for one of our windows. The project manager (*****) sent me a text message on 5/28/25 saying he was ordering these panels and they are expected to be ready for delivery in 2-3 weeks from 5/28/25.

      Initial appointment with Renewal by Andersen began 12/12/2022 for consultation to replace original windows for hurricane spec windows. Original design replaces 8 windows in the front, upgraded rear entry door, and sliding glass door facing pool. Multiple failed inspections by the city and the doors are not properly installed, Trim has yet to be completed and doors are improperly fitted in door jamb. This will be my third hurricane season with this job incomplete and this is not safe for the children under 10yrs that live there and I cannot sell property with a job that is half way done. I need a resolution and compensation by Renewal by Andersen admitting faulty workmanship. I have called on multiple occasions to find out status of my project, but no one can provide an answer. We financed this project through a third party so they already have their money. Stopping payment for work not completed only puts a lien on my house. My wife and I are both disabled Veterans and this has placed an arduous burden on us financially, and emotionally to get a satisfactory result from this situation.

      In November 2024, ordered windows and sliding doors for whole house. Total cost ********* The windows were installed 18 March 2025. Received a Letter from *** certificate of completion dated 27 March 2025. Found out this date the work was never inspected and the Permit is still open. The permit from city of ******** required preinstall inspection and a final inspection when work is being completed. Neither was Done. Lakeland Building inspectors do not except virtual photos from contractors and require onsite inspections. Called *** Number and complained about this issue. Installers came May 1st and removed window and took photos for inspection. (Photos of ******). Notified by ******** final Inspection is scheduled for 12 May. On 12 May at 08:30 Building Inspector showed up as scheduled. Could not do preinstall and final inspection because windows are sealed and they cannot see the work. They do not have any of the photos taken by ******** on record. ******** has to come out and reopen a window and a sliding door for a proper inspection. 2 months to close out a Permit is unsat. I have a buyer for the home and can not close until the Permit passes inspection. I need ******** to expedite a resolution to this issue. I have called ******** and get the same story that msgs will be sent to ************ but nothing is really coordinated with the City Inspectors per the Permit. Communication with me is shoddy at best. Someone needs to take care of this, Call me; and give details on how it will be resolved ASAP.

      Renewal by ********/***** *******. *********************************************************************

      Renewal by ******** of Florida. Legal name: JLM Windows, LLC. ***************************************************************

      Customer Answer

      Date: 05/06/2025

      I selected Renewal by Andersen to replace two windows when I noticed water damage on a bedroom wall. The salesman said that ******** would repair the leak. To accomplish the repair I agreed to pay $7,452 for two new windows. I signed the contract September 07, 2024. Installation was February 4, 2025 (5 months later) . The smaller window could not be installed because it was incorrectly measured two inches larger than the opening. The installer was proceeding with installing the bottom window in spite of the now visible completely destroyed drywall in the window frame and adjoining wall. My husband stopped the window installation and the field Supervisor was called. The field Supervisor terminated the installation and offered to help find a contractor. The repairs were completed February 22, 2025.An ******** representative called on March 27, 2025; new installation date for April 14th between 9:00 - 11:00 am. Workmen did not arrive by 12:00 pm, so I called the office and was referred to the Experience manager. He informed me that no workmen were coming because the small window was actually lost in the warehouse in *******. The field Supervisor then stopped by to discuss the botched appointment, confusion, and whether I wanted the bottom window installed. "No". After months dragging on and the gross incompetence, I dont want to proceed. Despite follow-up calls by my husband, we have not heard anything back from ********* contract I gave ******** a 50% deposit of $3,726. It is now May 1, 2025 (over 9 months later) and the company still has my money, we don't have new windows and no one has reached out. Instances of incompetence:1. The small window was measured incorrectly,2. The workmen saw no harm installing the large window on a severely water-damaged frame,3. The small window is lost in the warehouse and no one called,

      I hired Renewal By Andersen of ***** to install $35,088 worth of new windows and doors in my home. The sales *** and I signed the contract on February 20, 2024. The building permit was issued on May 30th, 2024. The installers came and did the installation on all but one window that was damaged in shipping. They informed me, that they would order a new one, but it would take several weeks for it to arrive. We set up another day for the last window installation. The workers showed up, but they did not have the window. They were told they were only ***lacing a PART of the window. Again, I had to wait another several weeks for the window to be ***laced. The 2nd time, they came out WITH the window, they installed it but noticed the sash (the border around the window) was cracked! They had to reorder a new one and again this took several weeks and I had to arrange ANOTHER day off of work to accomodate them. Now that all of the windows have been ***laced, a Renewal by Andersen supervisor has to do a final walk-through to check the work and THEN they can come finish the molding around the front door which can't be done until the supervisor's inspection. This inspection was scheduled, but the inspector never showed up!!! AND after that, the Citrus County inspector has to come out and do a final inspection. Andersen's last email to me was on the 10th of April, 2025. They have yet to reschedule the inspection, finish the doorway frame and schedule the county inspector. This project was started over a YEAR ago!!!

      Placed order for a door in December 2024. Door arrived to be installed in early March. Door didnt fit and the installer took it back. Its been more than a month and havent heard back. Called the salesman who knew nothing about it. Said he would get back to me. Never did. I have called, left messages and emailed no response. I have left messages to cancel the order and return my deposit. No response. All I want is to get my money back.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I have received 3 calls, from 3 different people, and although they are nice, no one has been able to give me any information  I have tried to cancel this order for more than a month  all I get is that the door is in production, so why cant anyone tell me when it will be installed.  All I get is that they are sorry and want to make it right   

      the original order was placed in December 2024. My current door was damaged during Hurricane ****** so we have had to live with a door that is difficult to open and has broken glass

      Ordered 3 exterior swing doors for $24137, gave a deposit of $12068 on 12/12/24. On 4/7/25 the installer came to house to do the install of all 3 doors, but wanted to double check measurements. He found one door was to short. I asked him to unpack the other 2 doors and found that they both had the wrong interior finish. He wanted to check with his ********** to verify what was ordered. After a great deal of calls, they confirmed that all 3 doors delivered did not match what was ordered. Over a period of close to 4 months, 6 measurings , numerous text phone calls and emails. And they still could not do it right. They did not even check the product before delivering it , to make sure it was correct. I got on the phone with the first ********** and told him to take back all 3 doors and that I wanted my deposit returned. He said he could do that and he would talk to his ********** and have him call me. 8 hours later he called me and said no way are we going to give your money. I have not heard from anyone from the company.

      We replaced all of our windows with RBA four years ago and paid them $150,000 for the job. We have had on-going problems for four years. Most of the windows were improperly installed (some installed backwards!) and we had extensive water damage to our home from their leading windows. We had to hire a contractor to repair the damage. We actually had to tear down an entire wall of our two story house at one point which RBA said they could not do. They authorized us to hire a contractor to do the work and they agreed to pay for that work. The contractor did all of the work and submitted a bill for $25,000. *** has agreed to pay it but after three months, they still have not done so. They want us to sign a release saying all work has been satisfactorily completed but they still have mulitple windows left to repair! The contractor is demanding payment and *** STILL has not paid the $25,000 to us or directly to the contractor.

      My husband and I have had nothing but aggravation from the incompetence we've experienced and continue to experience after hiring JLM Windows LLC d/b/a Renewal by Andersen of Florida to install hurricane windows in our home. Attached is a rundown of our interactions with the company and why our situation is currently unresolved. I would send the contract however it is larger than 5mb. I am happy to provide it for you via a different method if so desired.

      The business has hired an attorney who has not been able to provide us with a satisfactory resolution and that has now forced our hand to the point that we had to attain an attorney. At this point the issue is in the hands of both attorneys. We are waiting to hear a response response from JLM Windows upon receipt of our attorneys demand letter which was sent this week.
