Verified Reviewer New ReviewerMilgard does not stand behind their windows.
I had a full house of Milgard windows installed and the frame on one of them started cracking. I filed a warranty claim based on the fact that the warranty for the windows said this was clearly covered: "fiberglass frames: 10 years for excessive peeling, checking, cracking, chalking, fading, or color change." After waiting a month for Milgard to respond to the claim, I ended up having to call them. After a couple hours on hold and getting hung up on by the first person that picked up, I finally got to someone. The entire conversation was the company trying to get out of paying for a warranty claim. First they claimed it was shipping damage. After I mentioned it had been installed for quite some time and there hadn't been damage the entire time, they decided to go away and then claim it was still not covered because it was a 'nonmanufacturing defect' and that the person I was speaking to was denying my claim. If their warranty claims cracks in the frame are covered, I'm confused how a crack in the frame of my window couldn't be covered. So, now I guess I have to pay for a new window to get installed. In any case, if you're looking for new windows, I'd avoid Milgard in the future. They clearly don't stand behind their products.

Verified Reviewer New ReviewerInept service
I contacted Milgard in August regarding window condensation under warranty. Repair was scheduled for September 28,over a month wait . Received a phone call on September 27, advising window class was not received and rescheduled for October 12. Got a call advising window glass was again not received. Rescheduled for November 9. This is terrible service for a company as large as Milgard. I live in a Robson senior community with many homes with Milgard windows. I am sure they will be interested in the service I got and your reply to his email

Verified Reviewer New ReviewerNo Response on Case 0485****
Back in March or April, I submitted a warranty-related service request and haven't heard back from you. I was in the hospital with cancer for a while in April, so maybe I just missed your call or email. I included everything you asked for, although the pictures were not too clear due to the location of the 3 windows on the South Side of the house. I have all the original paperwork plus the warranty certficate. The windows were installed by V&W in Berkeley. One looks like the seal is broken and, I'm not sure what's causing the foggy-looking sections on the other two. I asked that someone come and look at all 3 as well as our 20 or so other Milgard windows installed at the same time in 2000. Can you please have someone contact me about an onsite evaluation of the window problems. I have the installation agreement from V&W dated 9/20/2000.

Verified Reviewer New ReviewerWindows have "stuff" in between the glass
A year or so you were out to replace a few bad windows in my house. I just had the windows cleaned and found that two windows, that I thought were just dirty from birds, etc, are flawed . They will need to be replaced also. Not sure what happened in a year... I tried to look up an old email from you and paperwork, but can't seem to find any. I am sure you have me in your system. Thanks, Kate Wels I live at 4570 Christine Loomis drive in arroyo grande ca 93420

Verified Reviewer New ReviewerWarranty service
We scheduled warranty service for three clouded windows. Appointment was scheduled for seven weeks out. Ten days before the scheduled appointment, Milgard postponed the service call by an additional 4 weeks. Assuming they make this appointment without another reschedule, it will be almost 3 months from time we placed initial service request.
User's recommendation: If you are choosing Milgard for their warranty support, think twice.

DMy new (1 year old) windows fog up so heavily that there is water running down them. Reported it last year and was told it is common, give it some time. It's been a year and it's worse. Cannot get through to Milgard, I have an account, cannot remember my password and it doesn't let me retrieve it. Milgard customer service sucks and yes. I'm pissed
User's recommendation: Do not buy Milgard.
We are terribly sorry to hear about the delay in warranty service. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience so we can make improvements.
Please email me at social@milgard.com with your contact information and case number so I can look at your account and verify your scheduled date of service. Milgard Windows and Doors
