"Promise Glass replaced a damaged dual pane low-E window in my kitchen that was frosted over because of a broken seal. The new window came in much quicker than expected and they put me on the schedule for the next day once the window was received. Fast, knowledgeable, and friendly, I will use them in the future and highly recommend!"
"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."
"Install was easy. Up front cost was pretty low with Angie's List coupon. Monthly price is a little high compared to competing companies. Response time with alarms is excellent. I was advised to use glass break alarms within 10 ft of my first floor windows, which we installed correctly. I asked prior to installation if having one in the kitchen would cause false alarms due to dishes clanging, etc. I was told the glass break alarms are configured to a precise frequency that alarms with breaking glass. So, not a "no", but not really an answer. Well, every time we cook dinner, wash dishes or empty the dish washer, the kitchen glass break alarm gives a warning which would sound the alarm if it was set. This has caused us a number of false alarms while we've been away due to shifting bowls or plates in our drying rack. For the first several we've had to pay our police department $120 to check the house, and I was only notified after the first alarm that there was a cheaper option for a security company to drive by to check for a break in."
"I hadn’t cleaned my windows in years, and the difference after this service was amazing. The team was professional, thorough, and handled even tough stains and buildup with care. My windows are now spotless, and the whole house feels brighter. Highly recommended!"
"The Carpet Police team did an OUTSTANDING job -- the tiles look brand new and we were astounded by the results. Before they began, we were hoping they could remove 90% of the residue, but they exceeded our expectations. The tile looks like it was just laid. They explained the processes to us: first an acid-based solution, which worked well and pleased us, but they indicated the results could be better so they followed with an alkaline-based solution to make the tiles gleam. They protected our cabinets, aluminum windows, rugs, and furniture and helped us move the furniture back into place when they finished. The cleaning took longer than expected, but the job was done right. They even scrubbed stubborn stains on their hands and knees. The cost was extremely reasonable - 49 cents per square foot. We will use them again."
"They were wonderful and outstanding. They came out to do the work on time. They replaced the windows with reasonable price. I would definitely recommend them. The job overall went on well and they were great. I would rate them high overall. They cleaned up everything after the work. They were very professional and they interacted in the way that they really cared about you. They were excellent. I would use them again in the future if needed. We needed the work to be done in a hurry and they sent someone in as soon as I called and they were great."
"initially one of the awnings was too large, covered 2/3rds of the window. They re-ordered the awning to the correct size. They now look great. Thank you!"
"We called their 800 number, they made an appointment for the following week. Two people arrived on time. One worked inside the other outside. They moved whatever furniture necessary and replaced it and they were done in less than an hour. We have approx. 20 windows and a patio door."
"I want to say thank you to Charles and his crew for doing a outstanding job on the moving. Charles asked me if I had my windows cleaned in the new house and I said no and he said that we could clean the windows if I wanted them done. So I had c2 windows cleaning do the windows as well. The windows looked great. Thank you c2 and Charles"
Common problems include broken latches, misaligned tracks, and worn seals. Regular inspection prevents major repairs.
Impact windows are absolutely worth the money if you live in an area prone to hurricanes. Though expensive, impact windows are built to withstand hurricane winds up to 200 mph and theoretically won’t break even if flying debris, such as mailboxes and lawn chairs, is smacked against the glass. A single broken window during a hurricane can destabilize the pressure inside your home, which can cause walls and the roof to collapse.
A good U-factor for windows is 0.30 or lower, but they can range from 0.20 to 1.20. A general rule of thumb when it comes to the U-factor is that the lower, the better.
Costs depend on hardware type, labor rates, and the extent of the repair.
Windows last between 15 and 30 years on average. The glass tends to last for around 20 years, while the frames last up to 50 years. This varies by the type of window frame material, glass quality, location, and level of maintenance. Wood frames have the shortest lifespan and require repainting or resealing every couple of years, while fiberglass has one of the longest lifespans.
