I normally do all my own home improvements but I never have replaced a window before. I had Champion out yesterday and they wanted $500 per window (32x38). I really liked their window but that is just too much money per window in my eyes. My question is what are some things I should be looking for when getting a window and installing it myself? Where is a good place to get the windows from? I went to Home Depot and Lowes but thos windows they have on the self just seem soo cheap and low quality. Thanks for you time.

I want to replace 7 interior doors and the casings. I know we could do it ourselves but we're kind of worn out on home improvement projects. We've been slowly updating a 40 year old house that hasn't been improved before we bought it. We've attempted to just replace a couple of the doors but we don't really have the tools or expertise to make the knob and latch all line up with the existing jamb. We live in Silver Spring, MD. Can anyone out there give me a rough estimate of what it would cost to hire someone to replace the doors so I have an idea before calling contractors? I don't care how they do it, pre-hung or just doors, since I'm replacing the casing anyway. Thanks for any help.
