We do NOT provide storage for orders that deliver direct from the manufacturer to the jobsite.

  9. Curbside Delivery by Taylor Brothers: If requested, we can deliver your order to your local jobsite. We provide CURBSIDE DELIVERY. This means our driver will deliver the materials at the curb and will lower the items to the street for your workers to receive.

  11. Product Inspection & Reporting: All products must be inspected upon delivery and customer understands they must report any damage or product concerns within 24 hours of receipt.

  12. Direct Deliveries: Many of the brands we sell are delivered direct to the jobsite by the manufacturer and there is no option to store the product at their warehouse. For these brands you need to be prepared to receive the order within 24-48 hours of Taylor Brothers alerting you that the order is ready to deliver. We do not provide storage for orders that deliver direct from the manufacturer to the jobsite. Those brands include: Milgard, Fleetwood, Euroline, Jada, Quantum, La Cantina, & A.G. Millworks.

  16. Abandoned Orders: Any order that is left in our warehouse for 90 days or longer, with no communication from the client, will be considered abandoned and will be sold to recover our cost. Deposits for abandoned order will not be refunded.

  17. Warranty Service: Taylor Brothers is your warranty service provider for any defective or improperly made products. It is expected that the contractor or installer has verified that the installation has been done correctly before requesting support from your salesperson. Customer must verify the following before we provide any onsite support:

    1. Making sure the product is installed plumb, level, and square.
    2. Flashings have been installed properly and sill drainage pans used where applicable.
    3. Wood products have been fully finished on all 6 sides and overhang requirements met.
    4. Products have been cleaned of construction debris so they can be operated.
    5. Product installer has completed fine tune adjustments for smooth operation and proper lock function.

  18. Fleetwood – Important Requirements: Customer understands their product warranty can be voided if the products are not installed per the manufacturer’s instructions and by a licensed contractor with at least 5 years’ experience installing Fleetwood or similar brands. Sill drainage pans are required to maintain your Fleetwood product warranty.

  19. Wood Products – Important Requirements: Wood products MUST be finished in a timely fashion per the manufacturers recommended instructions to maintain any warranty. Sealant squeeze out around the glass is common and is the responsibility of the client to remove. The use of medium or dark paint or stain finishes will void the product warranty for exterior wood products. Exterior wood doors require a fully covered overhang to protect them from exposure to sun as well as weather. Exterior wood doors carry NO WARRANTY unless you follow the manufacturers overhang and finishing requirements.

  20. Overhang Requirements for Exterior Wood Doors: An adequate overhang is required to protect wood exterior doors and to maintain their warranty. Please inquire with your sales representative to understand the specific requirement for the brand you are purchasing. Failure to comply with these requirements will void your product warranty.
