I found Archie (Sobol Inc) through Homestars and got a quote from him along with one other highly recommended installer. Surprisingly, they both sourced the same window company, so it was a perfect comparison when the quotes came in. Based on previous reviews, I was expecting Archie to come in higher, imagining that he would win out with better service, and was pleasantly surprised to see his quote was almost $1000 lower. So we happily booked him! Then came the decision process. Archie was totally patient with us as we made 3 or 4 revisions over the course of a few weeks, and helped us decide on the windows we really wanted. His view is that it is better to take your time and get all the tiny details right before the job starts, a refreshing concept in a city full contractors looking to get in and out and just get your money. 3-4 weeks later they started the install over the course of 3 days. This included all of our windows being replaced (we have a wonky un-level old house which posed tons of problems with installing),and the addition of 2 new windows where there were previously just walls. The workmanship on installation was perfect, the flashing on the exterior flawless, but our biggest joy came from how nice, kind, and clean they were. They tarped every room before working, and at the end of each day, our house was totally cleaned and back to normal as if nobody was ever there. Working with Archie has the comfort level of working with family (if you like your family that is!), and we couldn't be more happy with this whole experience. I highly recommend Sobol Inc for any job!! Thanks again Archie, Stephen
