Always very helpful people.. Knowledgeable, friendly and all around the kind of help you want. Stephanie, the kitchen coordinator, was especially great. She helps me layout all the options and figure out exactly what is needed. I've used her several times to help me figure out projects and have never been disappointed. Their prices are very reasonable and their service is exceptional. Highly recommend it.

We bought Marvin windows from Shannon. We changed our sizes several times and took almost a year to finally order. Shannon was so helpful, patient and had excellent communication. We love our giant slider!
