Welcome to Breaktime, northman.
It might help us if we knew where you/the client live. I'm different than the rest of the people here, I actually prefer to support local business rather than necessairily the big boys, all things being equal.
Quality repairs for your home.

Thanks for the warm welcome Aaron, I live in Vancouver, Washington, and Im trying to make it as a remodeling contractor. Ive dealt with all vinyl windows and wood windows, but never vinyl clad, but Im thinking about going with metal clad because of the heat. I just dont trust vinyl to hold up. Thanks again for answering my post
Andersen is a good place to start.

Thanks for the lead, I checked out the Andersen line and the home owner was pretty impressed.
