"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."
"I contacted John Barnes about window tinting. He came out a couple times to answer all my questions and measure my Windows. He was very professional. They were also the most cost-effective quote that I got. I was very pleased with the installation team. They were very fast, courteous, and friendly. I would highly recommend John Barnes window tinting. I was very happy with their work. I would rate them A+."

"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."
"I used Loctite impact windows to replace all the windows in my home. I found the company to be very professional, on time clean, and it was a pleasure working with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in replacing their windows with impact windows."
"All the workers were very good and they did an excellent job replacing my windows in an organized manner. I am very happy with the way everything turned out. My windows look great."
"I wanted casement windows for the front of my house to replace very old awning windows. Other installers were reluctant to install casements, and recommended a combination of different sized sliding windows (neighbors in similar houses who have updated, have variations of slider configurations). Matt agreed that casements would look great and indicated that he could install them. Once the windows arrived and installation was begun, it wasn't long before he ran into 60 year old iron posts connecting to my tie beam that complicated the installation. There were a few ways to proceed, but Matt decided that the best looking and most economical way to complete the installation was to frame around the poles, then cover them with white aluminum covers that matched the windows. The work is completed. It's beautiful and one would never know that there was any issue. Matt did install sliders in the back of the house, as planned, replacing older single-hung windows, and they are perfect. He was able to preserve those window sills and molding. The front window sill, the original from when the house was built, already chipped and marred from years of abuse, received more damage during the re-configuration of the framing. It was to be expected and I had all along planned to replace the window sill myself following the completion of the window installation. Matt felt that his work caused a bit more damage to the tile sill and informed me that he felt he should replace it. There was no talking him out of it! I now have great looking windows and a nice new tile window sill. Much of the work on my windows was completed when my wife and I were at work and no one was home. The house was left neat and clean, and there were absolutely no issues. If there was any problem, I'd say it had to do with communication, but primarily in regard to what time work would begin in the morning, and what work might be planned for the day. I am extremely satisfied with the work that was provided, the cost of the installation, and the high quality of the windows that Matt recommended."
In most cases, it's worth it to install hurricane windows—especially if you live in an area prone to hurricanes and storms. Hurricane windows not only protect your windows from breaking but also protect the interior of your home from storm damage while also potentially reducing your homeowner's insurance premium. On top of that, hurricane windows have an ROI of 80% to 85%.
While some homeowners are under the impression that triple-pane windows can help to reduce sound, the truth is that triple-pane windows will not be much quieter than double-pane windows since having a third pane doesn’t make much difference in sound transmission. If you’re looking to reduce sound, you should consider installing laminated glass windows.
Yes, egress windows are grandfathered. However, this comes with some specifications. If you are remodeling a basement or adding a sleeping area, you’ll need to update the egress windows to be up to proper code. But, if you’re leaving your home as is, you do not have to adhere to these requirements.
Window washing usually refers to cleaning dirt and other debris off of the exterior of your windows, while window cleaning is a much more involved process that addresses the outside and inside of the glass, as well as the interior components. Window washing is more to improve the aesthetic of your windows, while window cleaning can improve performance, reduce the risk of damage over time, and even improve your home’s energy efficiency.
The differences between a bay window versus a bow window involve the number of individual windows and the angle at which both windows extend from the home. A bow window has four to six individual windows that form a curve outside the exterior wall. A bay window usually has two small windows on the edges that angle outward from the exterior wall and a large window in the middle that’s parallel to the home’s exterior wall.
