"The Chicago Window Guys is a great company to have install your windows and doors. the owner Russ came out and was not aggressive or pushy like other companies. He was patient and truly listened to what me needs were. Since I have a big home I wasn't able to have all my windows done at once. This was ok! Russ worked with my budget and I got a new patio door, kitchen window and living room window. I was concerned about how well they will block out noise since I live close to a train track. The door and windows are great at reducing noise and keeping my home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The installers were professional and did a great, high quality and thorough job. Will use this company again to get the rest of my windows done."

"Dave was extremely professional and helpful. Super nice and explains everything thoroughly. He did an excellent job and we were very happy with the overall result. They were very prompt as well. Complimentary window well vacuuming before installation was clutch. He even helped to address a rodent entry issue in our well by helping install a steel wool plug where we had once seen chipmunks entering a hole near a window frame. Super happy with our project!"

"From the first interview our sales consultant through the post installation follow-up, we were very happy with the service and work that Excel Windows provided. Sales: We found Matt, our sales rep for Excel, to be friendly, knowledgeable and very responsive to the many questions we had for our large project. Matt walked us through the process of selecting an experienced window installer and quality window, communicating through email, phone and multiple in-person visits, and made sure we were comfortable with Excel’s products and assuring us that we would be receiving the level of service and product quality we desired. Matt always made himself available to answer questions, even after the project moved out of the sales phase and into the installation phase. Installation: During construction, Egor and his partner were very professional and completed the work as cleanly as possible. Of the ~28 windows we had replaced, only a couple required minor paint touchups to the trim and no window trim needed to be replaced. The trim around the sliding doors had to be replaced to allow for door installation, which we were informed about during the sales process. Excel had to be called back out once to fix a piece of warped trim work, but not a major issue. The one thing I wished I had done was ask whether I could buy pre-primed white trim and paint it in advance of Excel replacing the trim around the doors. It would have saved a lot of time in taping and painting the new trim after Excel was done, since they only install unprimed trim. Schedule: The work was completed in about 3.5 days. While this was about a day longer than originally quoted, Excel kept us informed of issues encountered during installation and their impact on the schedule. Leo, the person who scheduled the install crews, was very responsive and accommodating in finding days that worked with our schedule so someone could be home while the work was going on. Product: The Thermal windows we purchased (mostly double hung) are working great and we immediately saw an impact on our electricity bill since we no longer have the 20+ year-old drafty windows that were original to the house. The new windows are easy to move up and down and we like the additional features such as the night locks, screen locks and InvisiScreen. We went with a more contemporary window grid instead of the traditional colonial grid on the windows we replaced, and Excel helped us visualize the windows before ordering them by preparing a mock up of a couple of the windows to make sure we were comfortable with how they looked. We really like how they turned out. We had some issues with the sliding glass doors we purchased in that one of the doors was found to be bowed after installation (factory defect) and had to be replaced. The screen doors had to be adjusted a couple of times so they locked properly. More of a nuisance than anything, and Excel quickly acknowledged there was an issue and did what they could to resolve it as soon as possible. Customer Service: Throughout the process with Excel Windows, we found them to be very professional and responsive to requests and communications from us. Even after the windows and doors were installed and the check was cashed, they called to check up on things and quickly sent someone out if tweaks to anything were needed. As we entered into our first window replacement adventure, customer service and communication was the most important aspect of the project to us, outside of installing quality windows that would last for many years with minimal damage to the surrounding trim. Excel Windows met our lofty expectations in this area, and we would definitely call on them in the future for any window/door needs. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to take on a window and door replacement project, whether big or small, as they did a great job with our fairly large project."

"I honestly can recommend Arek to anyone. He's an honest, on time and reliable contractor. What was especially important to me ,was how clean they left my project. I had brand new landscaping installed and to my surprise it was left untouched. I couldn't find any trace of debris, after they were done. Other aspect is the way how flashings and other important but less visible aspects were addressed. Prep is extremely important part of any successful project. He used quality material that are superior to what most roofers use. He also took care of my insurance claim and as a result the project went very smooth. I am a general contractor and work with a lot of contractors. I can surely say that it was a very good experience to work with him. There are many guys who just work, but some take pride in what they do. I always look for people from the second group...."

Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts

Some hardware or specialty window stores in your area may repair damaged screens, but it’s less time-consuming, more convenient, and potentially more affordable to hire a screen repair technician to come to your home to do the work on-site. The screen technician will have the tools and experience to get the work done the same day, and they can inspect other screens while there to help avoid repeat repair costs in the future.

Yes, adding windows adds value to a brick house. Homeowners don’t shy away from more natural light and an opportunity to get fresh air. Adding a window is particularly beneficial if you live in an area with good weather for much of the year or if your home has a nice view. Keep in mind that many older brick homes have historic wood windows that add to the charm of the house. When you install a new window in a brick house, you’ll want to find one that matches the aesthetic of the existing windows.

While windows increase a home’s value, how much they increase it can vary. It depends on the age of the home and the type of windows. You can expect about 70% to 85% return on investment (ROI) when adding a window to your home.

If your door has interchangeable inserts, you’ll likely want to swap the glass out for a screen during the summer months. The process to do so will vary by door, but you’ll follow these general steps: First, use a flathead screwdriver to pop out the retainer strips—the plastic strips running down both long (and sometimes all four) sides of the door. Then gently pull them out by hand. Carefully remove the glass insert from the door and replace it with the screen. Finally, push the plastic retainer strips back into place, working from top to bottom.

Window screens can take anywhere between 10 minutes and an hour to replace, depending on the complexity of the replacement and the accessibility of the window. Replacing the screen inside an existing frame normally takes longer than replacing an entire screen, frame and all, if you purchase a prefabricated screen already mounted on the frame.

No, it’s not safe to leave a doggy door open. It might be more convenient, especially at night when you just want to lay in bed. However, when you leave it open, it increases the chance of other critters getting in without your knowledge. Also, it leaves your pup unsupervised for hours at a time.
