"Premier is the best, and I love being able to recommend a company so confidently. Steve is hands on, exceeds expectations, offers great cost conscious recommendations about where to spend and where to save and delivers high quality work. His team is similarly dependable and very competent. I used Premier to replace the windows on my 1920's cottage back in 2018, and then hired him again to reside my home just a few weeks ago. He beat his own timeline and his price was as good or better than all of the three other companies from which I got quotes. Highly recommend!"
"I highly recommend Windo-Well Cover Co. They were here when they said they would be, came prepared do the job even if it rained, and went above and beyond by cleaning out the window well before installing the cover. I am happy with the look of the cover, but am especially pleased with the strenth and durability of the cover. We will use them again to cover additional window wells."
"F and A did a fantastic job cleaning our windows and doors! The communication was great, they arrived on time and cleaned every glass surface, sills, and screens until they looked almost new. It was wonderful to walk into the house and see the sun and plants through sparkling clean windows. We will hire F and A to clean our windows every spring!"
"Team from Power completed the work on time and cleaned up well after work was completed. Windows were measured correctly so replacement windows fit perfectly and were quality Pella windows versus no-name windows offered by other vendors."
"Matt was amazing. He fixed my window in freezing cold weather at no cost and had it done in under 5 minutes. Super kind, efficient, and clearly knows what he’s doing. Really grateful for his help. Highly recommend!!"
"Sun Control does an amazing job on window tinting. Our tinted windows look great and also have cut our electric bill in half!!! Customer service was excellent. Installer was polite and honest. I would highly recommend Sun Control."
"The window cleaning technician was very professional and efficient. He asked questions when needed and followed all of our instructions. The windows and storm windows in our 2-flat were left sparkling clean."
"Very personable man, does good work and was in and out. He was prompt and did what he said he would do. His firm is also going to clean my windows next."

Windows with muntins are slightly more expensive because you’re paying for more material, but the cost shouldn't be that much higher since most muntins are fake on modern windows. You’re looking at a cost between $25 and $100 more per window for muntins, depending on the type. The only exception is if you want custom muntins to match your home style or meet your personal preference. Most manufacturers will charge more for these as they can’t mass-produce them. Windows with true muntins are rare, and they’re much more expensive upfront and over time if you ever need individual glass replacement.
