"This is pretty much as good as it gets without having the designer come to your house. We received detailed recommendations for lighting, accessories, fabric types, window treatments, lots of good details in the recommendations. The actual remodel changed the room, but most of the recommendations still apply. I'm not sure about the prices of the items they recommend, but it does give you practical ideas for furniture you may already have or how to shop in a retail store, etc. "
"I've had him work on windows and had him build me a deer blind. Always goes above and beyond above and beyond, responsive, answers calls or returns them right away. I've hired him for rental properties and I've always been more than satisfied."

"They subcontracted the work. Initial wallpaper removal was by local high school kids and was very slow. Then one college kid who was even slower. They finally brought in their pro who did as much removal in one day as the others did in a week. Needless to say, the entire project finished late and missed a critical date. The painters were very good where they painted except didn't seem to understand what to paint - I would keep pointing out areas out and sometimes they would include the area and sometimes they wouldn't. Eventually a foreman got them to mostly meet the contract but it wasted time and caused me stress. I felt like I was the foreman or contractor when I just wanted to write the check and have it done well and on time. Sadly it wasn't done on time so all my furniture and electronics arrived before the work was done and ended up covered in drywall dust. I also paid to have the woodwork cleaned and the wall plates matched throughout the house. Both those were only half done. They claimed woodwork just means window trim whereas I meant it to include all the wood. I also had to go to the hardware store and buy and install a bunch of wall plates (which was not a big deal except I had paid them to do that.) They also asked me to pay extra to clean up afterwards - I don't know of any business who does any job and then doesn't clean up after themselves. I believe they have a good reputation, but if you use them make sure the contract specificies no subcontracting and be sure you and they agree on what is and isn't included in the work. "

Whether or not you need permission to change the windows in your house depends on your local laws. If you’re enlarging an opening or installing a new window and need to make structural changes to the house, you’ll need a permit. In most locations, you won’t need permission if you’re just replacing a window with another window of the same size. The window installation company you work with will be able to help you navigate any planning permits you may need.
The disadvantages of putting plastic over your windows are that they are time-consuming to install and don’t always have the aesthetic that you may be looking for. The plastic is lightweight and not at all sturdy, so if you have kids or pets, the plastic can rip easily, meaning you’ll need to replace it often. It also doesn’t allow for the freedom of window movement that window film or shades offer. The single advantage that plastic window coverings have is that they are inexpensive and can be simple to install.
If you don't have hurricane shutters or impact-resistant windows, boarding up windows before a hurricane is worth it. According to the Federal Alliance for Safe Homes, protection is essential for all your home's entry points, including windows, doors, skylights, and garage doors.
When windows break, wind enters your home, creating enough pressure that could cause the weakest part of your to rupture. Often, the weakest part is the roof, which can "pop" off of a home in a hurricane. The simple act of boarding up your windows can protect the structural integrity of your house.
Replacing basement windows can be worth the cost if replacement is necessary. If your windows are leaking and leading to water damage in your basement, it’s absolutely worth replacing them. Similarly, if your basement windows are no longer insulating your basement or pose a security risk, you need to replace them.
In some cases, you may be able to save money by repairing a window instead of replacing it. A contractor can help you decide the right course of action.
Look for stickers at the top or inside of the frame, like in the tracks when the window is open. Some brands also stamp their name onto the frame itself or place it between the panes of glass, although this is less common. If you can’t find the info on the window itself, consider asking your neighbors or HOA.
