"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 used Locktight windows to replace my windows with Hurricane Windows. They were professional, clean, on time and worked quickly. I was very happy with their installers, sales, people, and managers. I would highly recommend them."
"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+."
"They were quick to respond to my email inquiry but unfortunately I didn't meet their minimum job requirement. They were very apologetic and I did appreciate it very much. Eventually I plan on replacing my windows and I would definitely reach out to them again."
"They were on time and did a great job on the windows and were thorough in explaining the procedures to take after the installation as far as cleaning and the warranty. Definitely would recommend"
"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."
"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."
"So far so good. We are super excited to get our new windows and doors done. We initially started the process about a year ago with Jonathan. We received other quotes but by far we knew ASP was the way to go. They have been very professional and I must say very friendly. Jesus came out to measure for the actual order. You can tell he really loves what he does. Everyone has been a pleasure. I look forward to updating my review once the project has been installed."
The amount of time window lintels last is based on the environment they’re installed in and the material that’s installed. For example, a steel lintel installed in a temperate climate will always last longer than a wooden or brick lintel installed in an area with tons of rain, snow, and wind. No matter which material you choose or where you live, proper maintenance will ensure your lintels last as long as possible.
Yes, bifold windows can open inward or outward. Your window manufacturer will label windows as “in-swing” or “out-swing,” which indicates the direction they open. If your installer is ordering windows for you, make sure they know which direction you want them to open. In-swing bifold windows will preserve as much space in your outdoor area as possible. Out-swing bifold windows are great on the second floor, where obstructions outside aren’t a concern.
Yes, you can enlarge windows in a brick house. Your masonry contractor will need to cut away exterior brick to make space for the larger window, and you may also need to consult a structural engineer to make sure the window is properly supported inside the frame of the house.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, low-E windows can reduce energy loss by 30% to 50%. But the actual effect of low-E windows in your home will depend on many factors, like climate, number of windows, window treatments, and more. In terms of aesthetics, you may or may not notice a difference in how your windows look or how much natural light shines through. But overall, low-E windows look very similar to traditional windows.
Your new windows may let in more noise than your old windows because they are not the right size or they were installed improperly. Improper installation, or choosing windows that are too small for the opening, can create gaps around the window that let in noise.
Another factor could be the STC and OITC ratings. If your new windows have lower ratings than your old windows, this means they have lower performance when it comes to dampening noise from the outdoors.
