Charlie:
Tom in Spring writes to us here this morning. Tom, he says and this is kind of a zen questions, so I want you to center yourself up here.
Tom:
Chakras are in line.
Charlie:
Okay. Why and when should you consider replacement windows?
Tom:
Why? That could be any reason. You want it to look better. You want it to be quieter. You want more security. There’s always energy efficiency. When? When you have the money. I’m not sure what else to tell the guy, but there’s no real science to it. Everybody has a different reason to do it. Now, if you want to get real practical, let’s go to the engineer side.
Charlie:
Tom Tom the engineer reporting for duty.
Tom:
Well, the glass is falling out. The glass is falling out. Rain is coming through. The windows are just shot, then you’ve got to get them. There’s a lot of different reasons people do it. Some people just do it for quiet, like I said, quietness, security, because you want the house to look better. They’re trying to upgrade the house. They’re remodeling. There’s a lot of different reasons.
Charlie:
A lot of different choices, too.
Tom:
Oh my goodness. Gulf Coast Windows has them all. They have a window for everybody, as I say.
Charlie:
They have the vinyl ones. They’ve got them fancy compozit windows.
Tom:
You can buy … Remember the old days when you bought a car, and you picked out the interior color, the exterior, you ordered the whole thing from a guy on the side of the road, and then it showed up two weeks later?
Charlie:
Guy on the side of the road. I’ve got a car that fell off the back of the truck.
Tom:
A car dealership had three cars out from and an office. You ordered your car. You can do that with those composite windows.
Charlie:
Yeah. Well, that’s …
Tom:
All the different hardware, the outside color, the inside color. It’s amazing.
Charlie:
They’re fancy pants.
Tom:
But it’s not on the side of the road. They come to your house.
Charlie:
They do.
Tom:
Just so we make that clear.
Charlie:
Jim Fiumi may even come by if you buy enough.
Tom:
Oh, gosh. Yes. I will buy windows from you, if only Jim comes.
Charlie:
Ding dong.
Tom:
He will show up. Ding dong. Jim’s here. He should. It’s his clients.
Charlie:
He’s a good guy. I’ll tell you, nobody knows more about windows. I’ll tell you that.
Tom:
Oh, gosh. No.
