Tom Patterson

Tom Patterson

President, Founder

Founded P.B.S. Inc, trading as “The Window Man”, in August of 1989 after being a partner in a small building supply company (Contractors Discount Supply) that sold just to builders.

The new construction industry is primarily about “price”. That lead me to the “replacement” window & door market, which is value driven.

We at The Window Man, have always strived to offer the “best value” in all types of windows & doors; whether vinyl, wood, wood clad, fiberglass, composite, aluminum, or steel.

We became involved in the commercial window industry in the mid nineties when we became the area dealer for Mon-Ray/DeVAC windows. This has allowed us to work with architects, structural engineers, & acoustical engineers on many large and small scale projects.

We have also worked on Federal projects including historical and acoustical.

By incorporating many of the things we have learned in the commercial and Federal construction arena, we can better serve our residential customers as well.
Our industry is a combination of old (low tech) and new (high tech) that is always interesting and challenging as it continues to evolve. We enjoy the challenge of staying on top of the latest technology.

Window Replacement Consultant

I have been working with The Window Man as a window replacement consultant since 2003. I have visited ten factories to see first hand the care and detail each factory gives to their products. I have dedicated myself to acquiring all of the knowledge on each and every product we provide to our clients. This enables me to provide the windows or doors that best suits our customer's needs and budget.

Prior to working with The Window Man I enjoyed myself as a Sales Representative in the men's clothing industry but due to changes in that industry I had to make a decision to find another path in my career. After a month of searching I found a home with The Window Man, a company that shared my strong values and principals of honesty, integrity, and a "low pressure" sales strategy. This has been quite a refreshing experience in the sales industry and I have found that I am able to serve each client with the same high quality of service that I would expect for myself.

Since being founded in 1989 The Window Man has established itself as a company you can count on and has expanded to three showrooms in Fairfax, Chantilly and Alexandria. By offering over 15 brands of windows and doors we are able to provide a solution for almost any home improvement project involving windows and or exterior doors. With our AAMA Masters certified installation teams and factory trained staff we have completed thousands of projects residential and commercial in Northern Virginia, Maryland, District of Columbia and Delaware with the best quality of service available.

I am proud to be a part of The Window Man family and truly enjoy providing my clients with the BEST products and service the industry has to offer and look forward to working with you.

Window Replacement Consultant

I spent 20 years in management in the Finance Business. In 1995 I decided to join The Window Man, the best job I've ever had. Driven by passion, knowledge, and experience I stayed on until 2005. During my time I sold millions of dollars of windows, doors, storm windows, and siding. In 2005 I decided to try the Real Estated business and continued in it until recently. I have stayed in touch with Tom Patterson and The Window Man family over the years. I wanted to become part of the family again and decided to return to what I do best, selling the Best Products and Service in the area. I'm glad to be back!

Paul Fendrich

Sales Consultant

Although I have just begun working with The Window Man as an In-house Sales Representative in 2013, I have already visited the Marvin factory to see first hand the care and detail the factory gives to their products. I am focused right now on building my knowledge of all of the products that The Window Man offers so that I can assist customers in the showroom and be sure they are seeing samples of the products that best suit their needs.

Prior to working with The Window Man I enjoyed myself as a Sales Representative in exterior home products and also as a General Contractor. I have found that I get the greatest job satisfaction when I can help a homeowner solve a problem they are experiencing, or improve the quality of their home, while doing it with the best products available and within their affordable budget.
