Default Windows and Siding: Home Depot?

I would vote for Pella too having Andersen and Pella products in my current
house. Visit the Pella website and download instructions on installing
their windows and doors so you have an idea of what they are supposed to be
doing.

Run, don't walk to your nearest Pella dealer or store. Every sub
contractor experience I've had with H-D has been a mess. Someone posted
here that only subs that don't have much business on their own, work for
HD.
My 2 cents.

Hi All

I need new windows and siding...the siding is so bad that it will
probably have to stripped off, and some of the plywood underneath
replaced.

A sales-rep from Home Depot came by yesterday to give me an estimate.
He seemed
honest and knowledgable. The quote he gave for the entire job wasn't
too bad either
(I've gotten a few other estimates as well).

Now the question. Can Home Depot be trusted? Are there 6500 series
windows really as good they claim them to be? Do they do a good job
installing? They say they stand behind their work, but I've heard some
horror stories. Any feedback would be most greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
tz
