Just had 20 windows and two patio doors replaced, frames and all. It was a one-week job for a crew of four. They worked very efficiently but with great workmanship and attention to detail, and they took great care to clean everything up at the end of each day. Everything looks really nice. The windows are OKNA and they are terrific. The price was very reasonable. I recommend WD&M without hesitation. Some of my neighbors have used them as well and were also very satisfied.

I can't recommend these guys enough. They just replaced two large three panel patio doors at my house that had rotted. Since the doors weren't a standard size and I didn't want to pay for a fully custom crafted door we ended up going with a standard sized sliding glass door replacement. Unfortunately, the sliding glass doors were quite a bit smaller (though more window area!) in width but also smaller depth so they had to do quite a bit of work to get everything to line back up with the original door positioning to avoid having to redo drywall and base boards and to cover the gap between the doors

Todd Gillespie's crew is top notch. They replaced 14 windows in our home with full frame Okna windows and installed one storm door. Excellent craftsmanship, attention to detail, great work ethic, and really good with the clients - answering our questions professionally and politely. The cleanup inside and outside our home before they went home each day was quite thorough. They even washed the new windows making them sparkle before they left the final day. Couldnt be happier with the quality of the product and work.

I found the choice of new windows to be daunting. I liked that the owner, Todd, had a lot of different choices and gave me options that would fit my situation best. I also felt that his price was fair value for the job. The crew was outstanding. They were on time, very skilled at their roles, and cleaned up daily. They were easy to work with, courteous, and went above and beyond in several situations. I couldn't have asked for more.
