Window Debacle

Posted on May 3, 2013 by Bedfordlandings

This week, we have made some great progress and have lost a little bit of ground at the same time.
This is what has been accomplished
1. Installed exterior doors and windows (except for 7 windows. Why? The wrong size was sent. Now we have 7 windows that we can sell for a great price!
Here is my ad: Please consider this bargain!

They are Anderson A 400 series double hung , low-E glass and Smart Sun coating.  Two are tempered.  They are tilt wash. The sell for $312 each and we will sell them for $212 each if you can use them.

So much progress and form of what was once a dream taking shape. I can almost smell the bacon cooking for breakfast. Let's plan the open house!
