"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."

"We purchased impact windows and doors to replace our old windows and 2 french doors, from Locktight and we couldn't be happier with the entire process and products. The windows and doors are everything we hoped they would be. Communication with Locktight has been topnotch throughout; and, the removal of the old windows and installation of the new windows was quick, incredibly professional and impeccably neat. The windows themselves are beautiful, high quality and nearly soundproof. They have improved the appearance of the exterior of our house significantly. We highly recommend Locktight to anyone considering replacing/upgrading their windows and/or doors."
"Overall it went well. I feel it's very important for a prospective homeowner to understand how complex of a project this is from comparing companies / quotes and deciding who they are going to use, to the completion of the project. The project itself is major and messy and it warrants a company that is very committed to customer care and satisfaction. Overall, East Coast Windows and Doors did a very good job. It was clear that the staff from the owner, administration, sales, installation and other managerial support all demonstrated a strong commitment to the customer, professionalism and quality work. While I would and will recommend East Coast Windows and Doors without reservation, I would like to clarify the Angie's List rating system. While I graded every element with an A, if allowed I would have given A minus on two categories - Overall & Quality. If asked to explain this comment, I would say as a homeowner you have to be prepared to inspect all the work that is done once your items are installed. From every window/door functioning as you expected, interior and exterior window cleaning including frames and the quality of all the caulking - interior and exterior. In summary, if you are looking to purchased Impact windows and doors do not hesitate to call East Coast Windows and Doors - you will not be disappointed. Clearly this is an rated A rated company in every respect. To say I am a satisfied customer would be an understatement."

Most modern egress windows installed in basements open outward into a window well, although some older homes have in-swing windows. Egress windows, like casement windows used in other parts of the home, such as bedrooms and bathrooms, may open inward, and these windows are often larger than outward-opening windows.
It’s easy to tell if you have low-E windows. Light a match or grab a pen light and hold it up to your windows. You should see multiple reflections in the window—four for double-pane windows. If one of the reflections is a slightly different color than the other three, you have low-E windows. If you don’t have low-E windows, all the reflections will be the same color.
You will need about half of a caulking cartridge to caulk one window. The average home has eight to 10 windows, so you would need about 4 or 5 cartridges to caulk every window in an average-sized house. However, you may not need to caulk all the windows at once. If just one window has a pesky draft, you may only need half of a cartridge to fill in the gaps.
Windows may need to be replaced after a hurricane if they’re severely damaged. For example, if you have windows with blown-out glass and a cracked frame, they will need to be replaced. It’s a similar story if you have windows with noticeable water damage. However, if your window pane has small cracks but the frame is still in good condition, you may be able to repair the window.
There are many signs to look out for that tell you it’s time to replace a double-hung window. If the window is drafty and inefficient, you may need a new window to block out air leaks and keep your utility bills from skyrocketing. Other signs that it’s time to replace a window include foggy glass, soft or broken window frames, or window sashes that won’t open or close easily.
