"Super fantastically well. Patsy Cicala and his crew were excellent. The windows were custom and had a trapezoid shape and they installed them perfectly from beginning to end. They weren't replacing windows but instead creating new ones and had to cut through my wall. It took about 2 days since they worked all day long for both days. The windows look terrific and my home was cleaned up from the minor mess. Patsy and crew were wonderful to deal with. The price was incredibly fair. I would hire Patsy again without question. Plus, he is fun to be around!"

"My name is Jason Haslbeck and I live in Chester County, PA. My wife and I have used Castle Windows for the replacement of all our windows, a new front door and now a new custom French Door slider (three separate project installations). Our sales representative, Roberto Munoz, has been an absolute pleasure to work with for all of our installations. Their customer service is excellent and their products are the best in the industry. Their lifetime warranty is legitimate and very valuable. Due to the Corona Virus, our latest project design consultation (French Doors) was done over the telephone using a ZOOM application. Very convenient technology and the presentation was very professional. On a personal note, our sales representative (Roberto) is a very faith based, honest human being and we have never been happier with a contractor or sales representative. I would highly recommend asking for Roberto Munoz as your sales representative as he is very knowledgeable, professional and courteous. Overall, from my experiences, Castle Windows is the best window and door company in the region. We did extensive research in comparing them to Pella, Anderson and other companies and Castle's product quality, installation and pricing was the best value by far. I would normally never take time out of my day to write a review, but my experience with Castle Windows (and Roberto Munoz) is one that deserves recognition. Jason & Hope Haslbeck Chester County, PA"

Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts

The screen on many screen doors is held in place by screen spline. Screen spline is typically a thin vinyl tubing that fits into the groove of the door’s frame and holds the screen in place. To install the spline on a screen door, you’ll need a spline roller—a tool that presses the spline and screen into the door’s narrow groove. Note that old spline can crack and break, so replacing your screens is a good time to replace the spline, too.

Rescreening your porch can take a few hours to a whole day, depending on the size of the enclosure and the amount of screen that needs replacing. If you decide to have a professional handle the rescreening, be sure to get a timeline and a cost estimate so you know how long you’ll be without the screened-in space.

Some local utilities or state programs offer rebates or tax incentives for energy-efficient upgrades, including solar screens. Make sure to check with your local energy provider or government agency to see if you qualify for any cost-saving programs. Federal tax credits may also be available for qualifying window and exterior home upgrades.

Window seals don’t last forever, so they’ll inevitably fail for one reason or another. One of the most common reasons is the expansion and contraction of the glass. When the glass gets warm from sunlight, it expands and adds pressure to the seal; at night, as the glass cools, it contracts. This process, day in and day out, can eventually cause the seal to fail. Other common sources of failure include the house settling over time, chemicals that damage the seal when repainting windows, and incorrect window installation.

Solar screens use a thick mesh of polyester to block out the UV waves and solar heat. While they are more expensive at about $7.50 per square foot, they can protect your porch or hardwood floors from sun damage and keep the room or porch on the other side of the patio cool.
