Have two large picture windows I want replaced, this is a job I prefer to leave to professionals as I have already replaced all the windows in the house besides these two monsters.
One is 84 x 60 and the other is 140 x 60. I've tried calling both wasco and champion and ended up leaving messages. Any other places I could call that could order and install the windows? I want 1/4 1/2 1/4 on both, with double hungs on the outsides and picture window in the middle, nothing fancy white vinyl

We had two windows replaced by Window World and I am really happy with them. One was pretty big too.
We had Champion and I forgot what other companies came out, but Window World had a good price (not the cheapest of the them all), good warranty that was easy to understand, and color options.--Michelle--

replacing a big one is no different than a smaller window. Have the window built to you specs, get a couple guys over there and bang it out. Save $$$

Do NOT call Weather Tight. I thought it was crazy when Home depot quoted me $15,000 for new windows. That was until Weather Tight quoted me $45,000! lol
I guy I know who has a few million dollar homes bought his daughter windows from Window World and he said he was very surprised and pleased with their quality and price.

This isn't just a pop it in and screw it down job, no wood to attach window to and I do not have experience mulling windows together nor have I found any how-tos on doing such. Trust me, I am trying to find as much info as I can as installing windows is EASY. I just can't find any good info on mulling vinyl windows together...
