"The installation crew was Five Star. Removing all windows downstairs/ Upstairs on a 3000 sq ft house was a big job. These fellows were prompt, meticulous, professional in every respect. I was in the trades for over 40 years; watching this team was like watching a ballet. Synchronized, efficient, every step counted. Thank you Access Windows for sending a terrific crew and a job well done."
"Great service from John Barnes Window Tinting. John came out for the estimate and gave us a lot of information about window tinting and recommended the best film for our window needs. John’s pricing was very good compared to other companies we got estimates from. His installer was great. He is obviously has a lot of experience and did an excellent Job on the windows. He left my home as clean as he found it. We are extremely satisfied with our purchase and the service."
"I could not be happier with East Coast Windows and Doors. Justin, Daniel and crew did an amazing job. Very professional every step of the way and amazing end result! I love my windows and doors. Thanks"
"Lewis was prompt and professional. This project entailed removal of bubbled UV film on the windows that was at least 40 years old and replacement with new. He carefully explained UV options and presented written quotes for two different films. I asked him for a second quote for additional windows and then a third! He promptly responded with no complaints. It s a full day job with two men. Bonus he offers a lowest price guarantee but it wasn t necessary since his was the best price of three contractors. I recommend."
"Shawn from the Window tint experts showed up same day, knocked the job out in no time, polite, and did a great job. Would definitely recommend him again."
"Our family is extremely satisfied with ASP Windows & Doors. From the very beginning, their team was professional, attentive, and efficient. They guided us through the best options for our home, and the installation process was seamless. The impact windows are top-notch—they have significantly improved our home’s security, reduced outside noise, and helped maintain a comfortable indoor temperature. We truly appreciate the outstanding service and high-quality products. We highly recommend ASP to any family looking for reliable and durable impact windows and doors! Sotolongo family"
Windows with muntins are slightly more expensive because you’re paying for more material, but the cost shouldn't be that much higher since most muntins are fake on modern windows. You’re looking at a cost between $25 and $100 more per window for muntins, depending on the type. The only exception is if you want custom muntins to match your home style or meet your personal preference. Most manufacturers will charge more for these as they can’t mass-produce them. Windows with true muntins are rare, and they’re much more expensive upfront and over time if you ever need individual glass replacement.
While plywood will keep winds and debris from shattering your windows from the outside, window film can help protect your windows from the inside. Window film can keep a window from shattering. If your windows break, the film can hold the shards of glass in place, reducing the risk of cuts.
While you may sometimes see window film marketed as "hurricane window film," note that it doesn't provide sufficient hurricane protection on its own. It's no substitute for plywood, storm windows, or hurricane shutters.
Whether or not you need permission to change the windows in your house depends on your local laws. If you’re enlarging an opening or installing a new window and need to make structural changes to the house, you’ll need a permit. In most locations, you won’t need permission if you’re just replacing a window with another window of the same size. The window installation company you work with will be able to help you navigate any planning permits you may need.
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.
