I had a guy do mine ,didnt cut aluminum right I had to caulk bad seams that would allow water in , I got another pro out to finish another window ,said he was doing it 9 years, he wanted to caulk the seams on the bottom he would not wrap the bottom sill up behind the verticle , well he walked which is good . Point is lota hacks dont know what they are doing, a good job is worth it . But you dont want water to get behind the aluminum and rot your wood. Check out how it is done right before you are sold a job. I won against the first installer in court, but he just filed bankruptcy...Its your house you have to be sure its done right.
