Window replacement day three, a whole lotta no progress.

Two brand new custom built windows…

Installed and leaking air like a sieve through gaps on the sides.

So yesterday our contractor spent 8 full hours tinkering and tweaking, measuring and leveling, reading pamphlets and instructions, searching the internet for alternative installation instructions trying to figure out what was wrong. He’s a precise and careful worker and wanted to solve the problem.

He took them out, he put them back in. He shimmed, he measured, he leveled 100 times. He completely exhausted his bag of tricks and still came up empty handed.

A testament to his honesty and character? He didn’t charge us for a single minute. He has a new wife and baby at home and lost an entire day’s pay trying to make it right.

When he hit a brick wall, he harangued the company where the windows were purchased and insisted their representative come inspect the problem.

So now we wait.

While the other three uninstalled windows take up residence in front of my car.

And btw…

If anyone is in need of roughly 120 Life magazines from the 1940’s?

I can hook you up.

Just don’t tell my husband.

🤣
