Granted, they have nice windows and no doubt they're of the highest quality. BUT, if you schedule an estimate, be prepared to learn about the long, boring history of Appleby windows. Good freaking God, it only takes an hour if you ask 0 questions, blatantly show disinterest and ask to get to the estimate multiple times. Oh, and enjoy a nice awkward feeling throughout this process. Please change your marketing strategy, it's cringeworthy.

I can not speak for their product since I never went through with it, but their attitude when you're trying to get away from them is terrible. I needed a new roof. The Sales Manager that came out, Nigel, came out and gave my wife and I a 3 hour seminar. He discussed all of our possible options, why he felt they were the best, our current issues with our home/roof, and his solution.
It was very thorough, but the price sounded very high. He explained that this would typically cost roughly $31k, but after some discounts he got it down to little less than $24k. My wife and I were still unsure, but we signed knowing we could cancel in 3 days. The next day we called and cancel. Nigel came back out to complete the paperwork. He was pissed that we were considering canceling.
We kept trying to tell him no for an hour, but he kept trying to convince us. After changing the color he got it down to roughly $19k. We signed knowing we could cancel in 3 days, and the president, John, began getting us references to calm our thoughts on this choice. I researched their reviews online, the normal price of our roof, and talked to a neighbor that had their roof done by them.
The neighbor said the product was nice, but they paid too much. Seemed somewhat in line with what we found online. Also had a couple coworkers tell me that their customer service was not as great as they talked it up to be. On Monday John emailed me 3 references. The first 1 I called hung up, so I felt there was no point in calling the other 2. I called John the next day to proceed with canceling.
He was upset with this, and I felt as though he was trying to bully/intimidate me in staying with them. He wouldn't take no for an answer. Finally he agreed we shouldn't do business with each other. I asked what I needed to do to proceed with canceling. He was very rude/short in his response, and though I still tried remaining pleasant up till the end of the call he was not.
The following day I wanted confirmation that this was canceled. I wasn't trusting them at this point. So I called them once in the morning and once in the afternoon to finally get an email confirmation that I canceled. Now I emailed them today because they cashed my down payment on the 12th, and I'm still waiting on the refund. They are quick to take your money, but not give it back.

Buyer Beware! Worst windows that I have ever purchased. If I could give them a negative rating I would. I have had nothing but problems from day one. They have included but not limited to a broken frame, broken balancers, lack of caulking allowing air and rain to enter my home, cold glass, drafts, condensation on inside and outside of windows. I also have problems with the glass.
They have had to return to my home many times since the installation to try and correct the problems but have failed. The company salesperson stated that their triple pane windows were superior to any others since there would be no temperature transfer from outside to inside and that their frames were of high quality and energy efficient. All of this has proven to be false.
I spent an exuberant amount of money to get what I thought would be superior. energy efficient but instead they are no better than the ones that I replaced. I have purchased windows in the past for my previous homes and have never had any problems with any of them. I would never recommend this company to anyone.

We decided to go with this company for a walk in shower install because they told us everything would be completed around the holidays and the work would take two days. Here we are in February and the install is scheduled for Monday February 5th, a little after the holidays. The only reason the install is scheduled for Monday is because I called wondering what was going on since we were told the shower stall would be installed around the holidays. I have left two messages for the manager and still no return phone call. I would never recommend this company, you can't trust what the salesman tells you.

After I had a good experience with them installing the shower stall, On a different installation I had them come in and install windows, this was a nightmare! The installation date was pushed a little, the installation of the windows was horrible, they missed measured, they didn't understand the windows we had originally installed, they had to redo siding on the outside of the house and some cases cracked the siding.
The J channeling around the new windows was very poorly done. I had to redo all the molding on the inside of the windows and this was also a very amateur done job. They return to the house three times and after the third time it still wasn't right but I did not trust their craftsmanship. While the windows I bought were triple pane and they insulate well the installation of these windows, done horribly, have leaks around the frame.
I continue to find drafty holes and continue to caulk; I will not let them back in my house to do work! For as much as they charge, this is ridiculous. I strongly advise against letting them do windows or doors or anything that could affect airflow in draft into the house. Very sad since the shower stall came out so great.

If I could give a negative star rating I would. Every thing the salesman told us was a lie! Let's begin with they didn't start the work on time. We got two different people calling us on different days giving us different dates. Finally work started, and the salesman promised they only hire professional and that's not what we got an "at most" two week job turned into almost three months. GO WITH A DIFFERENT COMPANY THAT OFFERS THE SAME THING.
For all our troube and stress over our basement being done and different managers coming to see to actually clean up the dust that was left on our floor, a plumbler who didn't know what he was doing and left parts of the job unfinished the owner gave a hundred dollar gift card. We took a couple different days off from work and it cost us more in time than 100 bucks. SMH There are other companies that offer the non oragnic ceiling, walls, and floors. Shop around. The products work well but just a bad business.
