4 starsInstall team was phenomenal crew leader was Aric Callahan! There were on time and professional and answered any questions we had. I would give 5 starts however I purchased these windows back in July it is now late November. That’s not the install teams fault. But the company as a whole could do a better job in communicating the delay. The salesman who came to my house even said “If I told you give me $$,$$$ and in 6 months you might have windows, you’d ask me to leave. our install time is 8-12 weeks” well it was 5 months not quite 6 but he was right had I known it would’ve taken this long I would’ve looked elsewhere. If you’re in a rush maybe go somewhere else.Universal Windows Direct

5 starsWow!! That about sums it up for our experience. Two installers came and did excellent work here. They were focused, patient with our questions, very hard workers, cleaned up everywhere so nicely and were gentlemanly and did all around great work. Universal has two great guys in this duo!!! Sadly, I did not get their names but they were great!! And very professional.
Our salesman was also professional and made things clear to us and answered all of our questions very patiently.
I did not have any delays with getting our windows in a timely manner. All quality products. We are very pleased with their look in our home! Thanks, UniversalUniversal Windows Direct

5 starsBen**** * and his crew were great. Instillation went smoothly. Chunked it out over 3 days so we didn’t freeze out and we’re accommodating of my youngest daughters nap schedule. We got the whole house as well as a slider and some bay windows done. Great product. Great service.Universal Windows Direct

1 starWe’ve been waiting on our sunroom sliding door to be complete for almost a year now. Nobody will let me talk to a supervisor or someone higher than customer service or sales representative. Every time they say they have my parts in the technician brings parts I didn’t even need.Universal Windows Direct

2 starsWhile I give the product 5 stars, I have to give service, communication, honesty and integrity a 1 star. Universal was paid upfront by the finance company and contract was signed in May, 2022. Windows were supposed to be installed and finished supposedly in 1 day in July, 2022. Without going into all the broken promises and damaged products, the windows were cut out and re-installed in Oct, 2022 when they received the replacements for the damaged products, the broken sash and screen. On the scheduled day of re-installation, Universal could not locate the replacement products, but they did re-install windows. I was told Universal would call and schedule when it was located. PAs usual, I had to contact them to know current disposition as no one updated us. Nov 15th apparently, "it arrived damaged" and has been reordered and it will be another 4 weeks. Again, we love product but uncertain whether it has been worth the drama. Needless to say, we will not be purchasing a new double front door from them!!Universal Windows Direct

1 starIf I could give negative stars I would. Horrible service, terrible product. I have more damage to my home thanks to universal. I wish I would never have considered them for my windows. Bad install, even the product they install doesn't hold up. Every window leaks, sweats, and is either warped or damaged. Run away from this company.M. S.

Been a year with this project. Installers come, wrong size windows upstairs so they install basement windows. Basement windows start warping and can't get out of sash for cleaning. Call repair guy, orders frames, said bad material, bad install. Upstairs windows come in after several months, new installers come. New installers finish, trim and drywall damaged, get first rain and 5 of 15 windows are leaking rain inside house. Call repair guy. Repair guy shows up....sees the water intrusion, show him the trim damage and broken window install. He temporarily fixes water leak, says he wants to come back and reset windows so I don't have any further problems. Company calls to set appointment for broken window replacement. I express I want repair guy, wait 2 more weeks, they call back and confirm appointment, and the same crew that broke the window messed up trim and installed incorrectly show up to do the basement frames. Bad part is they tried to lie and say it was a different crew. Any how they"fix mis set windows" and try nailing trim back up they pushed out from setting window in to far. Meanwhile weather gets cold and windows frost and sweat up, so I show pictures and videos. I get" wow shouldn't be doing that" you'll have to call customer service again. Then they want to go downstairs and replace 5 of the 9 window frames. I was like no...not gonna happen. Not one thing has gone right since the start...bad thing is they want to keep coming back and make things worse. Originally I had 27 windows that weren't the best. Now I have 25 that leak, sweat, broke and warped. I was better off befor Universal showed up.Universal Windows Direct

Michael, we are truly sorry to hear that we did not meet your expectations here at Universal Windows Direct and understand your frustration. We have reviewed your account and see this has become a legal matter so for any further assistance, please contact our team at *****************************************M. S.
Date: 11/17/2022
Sadly the only reason this has become a "legal matter" is because I told your installation center to stop trying to schedule installs with me. That no one on your team wanted to discuss this matter or address the issues. All you wanted to do was schedule install of more product. Infact I believe my exact words were "if none wants to address the issues and make it right, then the next conversation would be with my attorney ". Sad that you operate your business like this. Also makes we wonder how many people you may have taken advantage of over the years that my not have any knowledge in construction or renovation. SADReview fromMichael M
