    Consultation - 5: Mike ***** is a good salesman. Easy to talk to, open to answering all our questions, and very informative about the product. He was also easy to get a hold of when needed.
    Price - 4: Universal didn’t have the lowest pricing, but they were very close. Their warranty is top notch, which easily swayed us over to use them instead of their competitors.
    Waiting period - 5: Wait time was stated to be 8-10 weeks, install happened just before 9. We were provided a couple update emails about the windows’ manufacturing, which was reassuring.
    Install - 5: The 2 gentleman arrived on time on the scheduled install day and were able to finish installing all 10 windows that same day. They were friendly, efficient, and informative on their work.
    Finish - ?: Due to the cold weather and the stubbornness of my old windows, all the J-channels broke. The installers explained new custom ones were to be ordered free of charge and installed next week. I don’t foresee any issues, but if there are I will update this section.
    Overall - 5: Getting 10 windows installed was a big ticket item for my family, and we are very happy with our decision to go with Universal Windows. Thanks for a job well done, guys.

    Worst experience ever with a contractor! Had an existing bay window replaced and they have completely butchered the outside of my house! Had them come back 3 times to fix the damage and the installer is rude, and clueless as to how to fix this. What installer shows up at your house without the tools to bend metal? Treats us like we don't know what we are talking about and his English gets worse the more we try to point out the damage. Beware of this business! We have stated each time that we DO NOT want the same installer and each time they say they will not send him, but they lie and send the same butcher anyway. The outside of my house looked better before they installed the new window!!! So disappointed and just plain fed up trying to get this fixed. Should have paid the extra money to have this done by a business that actually knows what they are doing!

    I received a quote for two bedroom double hung windows. I told the salesman I would let him know my decision within a week because I wanted to review it with a contractor I trust. During that week I received at a minimum of 10 calls a day from UWD. Text messages as well. During that week i responded twice to a UWD employee and twice to their texts that they need to stop calling me and i will not be moving forward with their quoted work. They are still calling and each time they say its to get me a "rebate" although no one can ever provide what the rebate is. I asked them again today to stop with the calls but judging by the rude unprofessional person i talked to i doubt they will stop. I am filing a complaint with Wisconsin BBB today over this. I do not recommend UWD.

    We recently remodeled my husbands childhood home and we had universal windows do all the windows and WOW do they look amazing the whole process from sales to install was flawless! We didn’t have to wait 6months like some companies and when they were ready they were here within a 7-10 days for install. The install guys were on time and so polite told me what they were doing in steps cleaned up everything before leaving. I would most definitely recommend universal windows for your project
