About this example
This example is the quote a window and door company in Columbus, Ohio, gives homeowners replacing all fourteen original wood windows in a 1938 house: double-hung windows in the bedrooms, living room and front room, a casement over the kitchen sink and obscure glass in the bathrooms, all installed in the existing frames.
Window buyers want to know that every opening is accounted for, so the quote opens with a short letter and a window schedule by room with sizes and types, and promises a final measure before anything is ordered. A comparison prices the same windows in vinyl and fiberglass. Windows are priced per unit with frame, glass and U-factor shown, installation, removal and lead-safe work practices are on their own lines, and aluminum capping covers the outside trim. An eight-week timeline, three payments tied to ordering, install and completion, terms on the right to cancel and rotted sills, the warranty and an acceptance block close it.
