"From start to finish, Steve was a dream to work with. First, he educated us on the different kinds of films to put on our new windows. He left us with three different patches of film on our window for a week so we can make a decision based on what kind of light and how it looks with different weather patterns. During the installation process Steve was a professional. Explained the entire process step by step. He was efficient, kind, and informative. His price was fair, his work and performance were off the charts, and above all, he was just a great guy. We are grateful we found him and our new home looks better than before!"
"They were highly recommended by a friend who used them, and we were very pleased by the results. They were booked out quite a ways, but they were prompt in arriving, were very professional and did a great job cleaning all the windows, screens and doors in our house. We will definitely use them again."
"Gusty wind threw a rock and smash one of our storm window. I found Arlmont Glass from Angies List. Called first thing in the morning. I was thinking it is going to be a 2 weeks project (schedule appointment for estimate, and schedule another appointment for work....etc). But April was so extremely helpful. She sent someone over to the house to give an estimate within 2 hours and gave a very reasonable quote. The work was done on the same day as well. Within another few hours, the work was done. While they were there, I also have them fix a piece of glass on our garage door that has a crack. Their quality of work was excellent. Everything was handle with care and they are very professional. Another gem I found on Angies' List. I will definitely use them again for future glass projects."
"Windows are high quality replacement windows. I had 14 windows replaced. Workmen knew what they were doing and answered all my questions. I would use them again."
"Juan washed the outside of our windows. He worked quickly, efficiently, and quietly, not needing anything from me. I have done my own windows for years and never got them looking so spotless."
"Working with Kenny was a pleasure!! I received a call/email from Kenny within the first few hours of my request. After discussing the project we set up a consultation. Kenny was informative and knowledgeable. He listened to my needs for the window tinting project, my likes and dislikes, and from there the product was chosen. In less than a week we were able to set a time up for the job and complete the job. I highly recommend Kenny/Pro Tint for any of your windowing tinting projects!! I might add, I NEVER fill out these comments/reviews but this was worth it!!!!!"
"Replaced a cracked window pane. Company was professional and had strong communication and a fair price. Super happy with them! Technician was the NICEST!"
Combining window service with other upgrades in Boston can be especially efficient for older homes. Coordinating window replacement with siding or insulation projects helps minimize disruptions and can streamline permit reviews, especially in historic neighborhoods. By tackling multiple upgrades together, you’ll maximize contractor availability during Boston’s busy construction season and may qualify for local energy efficiency incentives, making your investment go further.

Window maintenance in Boston is crucial due to the city’s freeze-thaw cycles and coastal weather. Inspect caulking and weatherstripping each spring to prevent drafts, and lubricate hardware before winter. After storms or nor’easters, check for water intrusion and damaged seals. Homes near the harbor should watch for salt buildup, which can affect window frames and glass, so regular cleaning is especially important in those areas.

Boston’s climate—with its harsh winters, humid summers, and rapid temperature changes—demands durable window materials and expert installation. Scheduling window service in spring or fall helps avoid weather delays and ensures proper sealing. Materials like fiberglass or high-quality vinyl resist warping and moisture, while professional installation ensures windows withstand Boston’s coastal storms and temperature swings for long-lasting performance.

Upgrading your windows in Boston delivers immediate comfort by reducing drafts and outside noise, especially in dense neighborhoods. Over time, energy-efficient window service can lower heating and cooling demands, increase your property’s value, and reduce maintenance needs. New windows also offer improved storm protection, which is valuable given Boston’s unpredictable weather, and can make your home stand out in a competitive real estate market.

In Boston, window service projects can reveal hidden challenges like the need for specialized approvals in historic districts, or the discovery of lead paint and outdated insulation in older homes. Repairs to original brickwork or rotted sills often surface once old windows are removed. Weather-related delays and contractor parking permits are also common, so it’s wise to build flexibility into your project timeline and budget.
