Window Outfitters & Garage Floor Outfitters

The Twin Cities’ Finest Windows, Doors & Garage Floors

Obsession over detail. Reverence toward craftsmanship. Iron-clad work ethic. The Amish owe their reputation for quality work to all three. It doesn’t hurt that they don’t watch TV or TikTok, either.

You, an Eden Prairie homeowner, could benefit from the Amish touch. All you would need is Window Outfitters, which most certainly isn’t to suggest that founder and CEO Bob Davis is Amish. You don’t want his help raising a barn. But if you’re determined to feather your nest with superlative windows and exterior doors, then Bob is very much your man.

“I’ve examined vinyl windows by every manufacturer in the United States and beyond,” said Bob. “When it comes to durability, energy efficiency, and visual appeal, none of them hold a candle to ProVia. The Amish-owned company’s windows are excellent at both ends of Minnesota’s temperature extremes, available in styles that complement every style of architecture, and backed by a lifetime warranty that covers glass breakage and seal failure alike. 

“ProVia’s steel and fiberglass exterior doors are no less exceptional. They are outstandingly secure, abnormally energy efficient, and available with any style of glass and in a wide range of realistic wood finishes including oak, cherry, mahogany, knotty alder and fir.

“All of our installation foremen have trained a full week at ProVia’s headquarters in Ohio, making Window Outfitters their only certified installer in the Twin Cities. Our showroom in Savage displays ProVia’s entire product line, too. Investing so much into ProVia has really paid off, because we’re quickly becoming their largest reseller in our market.

“We’re not exclusively a ProVia reseller, though. Our partnerships with Weather Shield, Mon-Ray and Marvin allow us to install every other style of window, including wood, wood-clad, steel, fiberglass, and aluminum storm. Our enormous range of products is just one of the reasons why we’re often chosen to service homes on the National Register of Historic Places.”

Window Outfitters proves that quality work is also within the realm of the “English” (as non-Amish are known to the Amish). They are rated 4.8 stars on Google, A on Angi, and A+ with the Better Business Bureau. They have won multiple GuildQuality Guildmaster Awards as well. “The world’s best windows and entry doors won’t cut it on their own,” explained Bob. “You can’t earn distinctions like ours without excellent customer service, flawless craftsmanship, and total respect for your client’s most valuable possession.”

Are you already fixed for windows and doors? In that case, go and take a look at your garage floor. If it stirs negative emotions, then Garage Floor Outfitters – Bob’s other business – is the key.

“Most garage floorers use a hybrid of epoxy and polyaspartic,” said Bob. “The finished result looks good for a little while, but soon shows its age – especially in this state, where the roads are so gritty and salty. 

“We take a more sophisticated approach to garage floor restoration. Once we have grinded the floor and filled all its pops and cracks, we apply Slide-Lok’s pure polyaspartic treatment. It vanishes existing damage. It’s available in any color and with any chip finish. It’s also tough enough for commercial and industrial use. You can mistreat your garage floor however you like.

“Perfecting a garage often calls for custom cabinetry. It’s no coincidence that we do that, too. Our computer-aided design process yields one-of-a-kind cabinets that are just as suitable for garages as they are laundry rooms, utility rooms, and any other workspace in your home. Just choose the style, finish and size, and then let us take care of the rest.”
