Well, finally pulled the trigger and having nine out of the coach's eleven windows repaired due to fogging. Gonna probably work out to seven days here due to no work on the weekend. In the meantime, it's hotter than Hades and the holes are covered with plastic covered cardboard and tape. All three AC's are working hard and Mama ain't pleased!

My driver's window was getting to the point where it was hard to see the mirror if in direct sunlight.

I've been here twice. Suncoast Designers work is excellent. And they have a great warranty.

They did four windows for me in one morning. Even if they are super-busy, you should be done in 3 days.
Meanwhile, in these temperatures I think I would rent a motel room, at least for hot weather sleeping.

Where are they located? Are they repairing the fogged windows or replacing? I've got a few that need it as well. Curious on cost as well. Thanks

It's tolerable during the day and cool during the night. I hope you're right on the time but they told me Wednesday.

Hudson Florida. They repair the windows but replace the glass if it's etched beyond repair. Driver's window is $300, others are $250 not including replacement glass.

They disassemble, clean the glass, and reassemble with high quality seals and there is a price estimator on their website. We had the driver & passenger side windows rebuilt there a few years back. No sign of fogging since then, but after returning home, I found the black paint on the window frames had been scratched during the repair process. Had I noticed when at the facility, I'm sure this would have been corrected.

We just had 4 windows repaired at SCD, took them 2 full days to take them out and repair them, 3rd day, early, they installed them. We were the April 26/28.
They did a great job, nice and clear now, the only complaint is the scratched window tint but I'll fix that later.

Will be rolling in there on Sunday evening to get 1 window fixed on Monday. They told me it should take 1 to 1.5 days to complete.
