"We had several windows and doors replaced and I was really impressed with the new windows and doors as well as the professional installation by Perry and his crew. They made sure everything was square, clean, and caulked. Great job! I highly recommend Metropolitan High Performance Windows."

"SWS tinted the windows on both of our current cars. The second one was done 3 years ago, and what impressed me the most was how Virgil handled a problem that came up 3 years later: 5 stars across the board for Superior Window Solutions (SWS)! They have competitive prices, install quality window films, and most importantly, they stand behind their work and take care of their customers after the sale. In my case…long after the sale. In 2013 we decided to tint the windows on my wife’s new Civic, we chose SWS. Virgil Ryan, the owner, had promptly returned my phone calls and had taken the time to answer all of my questions. Their pricing was competitive, scheduling was easy, and the installation was first-rate; a great experience. In 2015 SWS tinted the windows on my new Lexus and I had the same great experience. As I had with the Civic, I chose a darker tint for the 3 rear windows, and a lighter shade for the 2 in front. Almost three years had gone by when I recently noticed that an edge of the tint on the driver’s window of the Lexus had come loose. I called Virgil, and his response was simple and direct; “We’ll take care of it.” When I brought my car in, Virgil and his installer Jose determined that there was a flaw in the film itself. When they pulled some new film from their stock they noticed that the original tint had also darkened considerably, so the new film for the driver’s window was not going to match the existing film on the front passenger side. Virgil solved that problem quickly, saying “We’ll replace the tint on both front windows”. For a successful tint job, an installer needs to have a great deal of patience and attention to detail, and Jose took great care to ensure that everything was perfect in replacing the tinting on both windows. Too many companies today seem to have lost sight of the fact that if you don’t take care of your customers, your chance for a customer’s repeat business is minimal. However, if you do take care of them, they will come back. It’s that simple. Virgil’s proactive approach to SWS’s customer service, and his ability to see things from the customer's perspective has made me a customer for life, and I heartily recommend his company. PS: An insider tip. As someone who ran customer service programs for many years, my best advice for consumers seeking service, especially for something that is technically “out of warranty” is to first just simply ask nicely if anything can be done. Business owners and their employees are people too, and if you treat them the way you would like to be treated, you never know what kind of good things may happen. Conversely, if from the beginning you go in making threats and over-the-top demands, you seriously reduce your chances of getting any kind of satisfaction."

"Gabriel and his partner were on time, super courteous, and very informative. They showed us how the window locks and built-in stops work and how easily the windows dissemble to clean. This was an excellent experience overall and I would hire Brothers again! The windows are gorgeous!!"

Windows FAQs, answered by experts

The key difference between a hung window and an awning window is that hung windows (including single-hung and double-hung versions) slide vertically to open and close. In contrast, awning windows have a hinge at the top and open outward at an angle. You can use both types of windows throughout your home, but awning windows are best suited for kitchens and bathrooms.

Glass block windows aren’t fire hazards; fire-rated glass block windows can increase your home’s fire safety. Modern glass blocks are made with materials that can resist high temperatures and prevent fire spread. Most offer a 45-minute fire rating, while some increase it to two hours. Compared to the typical 20 to 90 minute rating for a double-pane window, glass block can increase your home’s safety in the event of a fire.

On average, bay windows are three times as expensive as a standard double-hung window, so up-front cost is a major drawback. They also let in more natural light than most other types of windows, which can be a positive thing, but it can also lead to more aggressive fading and UV damage to furniture and flooring. Larger windows allow for more heat transfer, so bay windows tend to be less energy-efficient due to their size. Finally, window treatments for bay windows can be more challenging to find, and they’re more expensive than those you’d place over standard-sized windows.

Typically, a bay window is, at minimum, 42 inches wide. That said, you can always design a custom bay window that is smaller—box bay windows are usually less than three feet in width and are ideal for smaller spaces.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
