Need Windows, different sizes...

Is there a contractor that can make windows? If I buy the glass and cut them to size can someone make them? 

I was quoted 9 months out to get windows! It takes longer for the windows to come than it took me to have another human being! MY GAWD!! WHY??

Any ideas as to where I can get faster windows?

Which in many cases destroys the architectural lines of the house, and lowers its curb appeal--meaning lower level renters, and probably lowering of the property value when you go to sell.

In other words it looks "Ghetto".

Just my 2 cents.

It all depends on how well it’s done.  If you are using siding the new siding covers any size  changes.  If done Half-a$$ it will look that way.  But done well it can be a viable solution
