"I hired the company to replace my windows in Boise.
Then we hired them to install 29 windows and 2 slides doors in two properties located in Austin and McAllen Tx.
The owner did an excellent job!
I truly recommend Boise Window Medics. Excellent job, on time, and affordable prices."
"Brent did an excellent job. The windows and screens are so clea now. I' am hoping to hire him in the autumn to get the windows clean for winter. I recommend Wishy Washy Windows."
"Zach & Stephanie did a fantastic job, cleaning all windows inside & out (and screens). The work was excellent & they were a very pleasant couple with whom to spend the day. We'll have them back in about 6 months."
"Hired them to replace 23 windows in my 21 year old home. They were the lowest bid for the identical windows from another local vendor. Installation only took one day. I have 7 more windows to replace and will contact Masterpiece Construction Experts to have those replaced. Very satisfied with them."

Impact windows are a type of window made with impact-resistant glass, designed specifically for hurricanes. The glass, treated with ethylene-vinyl, can withstand winds up to 200 mph, as well as flying debris. Brands sometimes test their impact windows with large missile impact tests.
Impact windows may be required in some places. For instance, the Florida Building Code requires homes to have impact-resistant windows if they live within a mile of the coast where wind speeds can reach 110 mph or more.
Most manufacturers have their name imprinted somewhere on the window, such as the spacer bar, hardware, or frame. Other manufacturers will include an identification number printed on the glass itself. If you’re unable to find either of these, then your window was manufactured locally (oftentimes called a “shop window”).
With a manufacturer name (or even better, the identification number) you can attempt to research the information to find out when the product was made. Keep in mind this won’t tell you when the window was installed on your home, but can get you close.
Impact windows are absolutely worth the money if you live in an area prone to hurricanes. Though expensive, impact windows are built to withstand hurricane winds up to 200 mph and theoretically won’t break even if flying debris, such as mailboxes and lawn chairs, is smacked against the glass. A single broken window during a hurricane can destabilize the pressure inside your home, which can cause walls and the roof to collapse.
The average lifespan for a casement window is around 20 years, but some higher-end casement windows with more durable frame materials can last up to around 40 years before you need to replace them. You’ll need to carry out routine maintenance and window cleaning—and, on occasion, casement window restoration—to extend the lifespan of your casement windows. But they tend to wear more slowly than windows with sliding sashes because the weatherstripping sees minimal friction.
