Consumer Awareness Guide

Following are some examples of cost savings made possible with SunCoatMAXTM windows.

  • Air Conditioning load reduction.
  • SunCoatMAXTM windows don't require any adjustments to a home's design or framing.
  • Specifying SunCoatMAXTM doesn't add any additional job site labor expenses, giving you even greater savings.
  • In some cases, these windows may eliminate the need for highly insulated ducts, which in turn require increased framing depth.
  • Milgard's SunCoatMAXTM can be used in all vinyl and fiberglass Milgard windows and patio doors to meet Energy STAR® guidelines.
  • The savings add up even more with rebates and tax credits. Using SunCoatMAXTM can help you qualify for local and federal rebates and tax credits ranging from $500 to $2500 per home, depending on your particular area.

    All Milgard windows come with a factory lifetime guarantee, at the same cost as other windows that don't have SunCoatMAXTM.

    SunCoatMAX reduces solar heat gain 62.5% over ordinary single-coat, Low E glass!
    Cool Summers — Let in the sun, not the heat.

    Warm Winters - Keep in the heat, keep out the cold.

    Another very important factor with insulation is the use of the right kind of caulking. There are actually three types of caulking that go into the making of a perfectly weather-proof, thermal seal around a window.

    Finely Finished uses Titebond: Weathermaster Sealant, which has a lifetime durability guarantee. This is used for the back bead application and is applied under the fin and frames before installation. This superior polymer formula provides exceptional flexibility (no shrinking or cracking) and an unbeatable adhesion to wood, fiberboard, vinyl, aluminum, metal, brass and other commonly used building materials. It is waterproof, even in extreme weather conditions, resists dirt pick-up, and it is UV resistant.

    The secondary caulking we use is Premium Elastometric Latex, another waterproof sealant, for the exterior seals exposed to the weather. It is mildew resistant and guaranteed for fifty years to stay flexible and free from drying up or cracking.

    The interior sealant used is Acrylic Latex Caulking for extra protection from leaks. Most other window companies don't use this caliber of sealing technology. Finely Finished goes the extra step for the satisfaction of our customers.

    Warranties. Good news and bad news.

    The good news is that most manufacturers offer a lifetime warranty on all parts of the window. The bad news is that they don't offer any labor to fix that free part. Some even charge you for the shipping.

    The good news is that the local window dealer offers a labor warranty. The bad news is that the labor warranty is usually only for one year, and then you are on your own.

    The good news is that the manufacturers and their warranties are usually pretty reliable. The bad news is that the local window dealers are usually not. Typically, the local window dealer goes out of business, or switches to another window manufacturer, leaving their customers out in the cold (no pun intended).

    Here is a tip: find out more about the window manufacturer and what warranties and customer services they offer. The really great window manufacturers have their own service technicians right here in town. That way, even if the local window dealer goes out of business, the customer still has service.

    The good news is that some window manufacturers even offer "accidental glass breakage" warranties. They will give you replacement glass for your broken window at no charge. The bad news is that they offer no labor on the replacement glass. The customer has to pay for the labor.

    More good news is that some local window dealers, like Finely Finished, offer labor warranties for accidental glass breakage. The bad news is that not many do. In fact, I know of only two companies offering labor for accidental glass breakage, and Finely Finished is one of them.

    Finely Finished is also a member of the League of California Home Owners.

    We offer Free Quotes that are good for at least 90 days. We even encourage you to get other quotes so you can make an informed decision.

    We are family owned and operated.

    We use only our own fully trained, factory certified master window and door installers. No sub contractors! (Hint: most window dealers in the Los Angeles areas use sub-contractors, especially the big box home improvement stores.) Our professional craftsmen have years of experience and have been rated as some of the most courteous and caring in the business. They will treat your home like it was their home. They know that a satisfied customer will refer us to their neighbors.

    Each Employee is trained in finish carpentry, plaster patching and exterior stucco patching.

    Each installation crew is set with a lead man, who has been with the company for many years. They are certified to go over the completed job, interior and exterior, and personally check every window and screen for proper fit and installation with you. They are also certified to put up the balance owed on the job and verify with your signature.

    Finely Finished is equipped with a B — license (#B613675), which is a general building contractor's license, which covers framing and carpentry. We also have a C17 glazing license. A glazing contractor selects, cuts, assembles and/or installs all makes and kinds of glass, glass work, mirrored glass, and glass substitute materials for glazing; executes the fabrication and glazing of frames, panels, sashes

    We guarantee: Quality workmanship. Only the best customer service. We are committed to our customers' satisfaction!

    Finely Finished adds a Lifetime Warranty on accidental glass breakage and a Lifetime Warranty on all labor to repair parts or replace glass.
