"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 outstanding! They came out immediately to figure out what I needed and then came out today to replace the window. The gentleman who came was incredibly nice, professional and FAST! I would absolutely use them again.
"Excellent workmanship and products I have had three installations with Power in the past two years. I first used them for a new roof and gutters. The workers were all knowledgeable in their area of work. Clean up was good although some nails kept showing up over time. Next I had the 2nd floor windows and some 1st floor windows replaced, 9 in total. Installation went well and they cleaned up beautifully afterwards. I love the windows! They are a beautiful and energy efficient product. Lastly, I recently had a bay window replaced in my kitchen with the same type window. The workers ere all friendly and explained what would be done. The area was draped with plastic to cut down on dust. Clean up was excellent inside and outside! The window is beautiful and the framing on the outside of the window matches the other windows and the small roof above the bay window was replaced with the same roofing as the rest of the house. I would choose them again for any future projects."
"Joslin and Co was recommended to me by a Co worker and I could not be more happy with the results. I worked with a gentleman named Nico. He was Timely , Profesional, effecient and had my windows and doors spotless. I live in a wooded area with over 40 windows on my home and 2 sliding doors. I will be calling him back to service my windows and doors again and highly recommend him to anyone looking to do the same."
"I hired Bob for several exterior projects on my home, including replacing rotting window trim, building custom window headers to match the originals, and sealing, sanding, and painting the trim. He’s a highly skilled carpenter and a hard worker who takes pride in his craft. He’s also friendly and great at communicating, always letting me know when to expect him. I’m very happy with his work and would gladly hire him again. Highly recommended!"
Installing energy-efficient windows costs between $325 and $2,000, averaging about $400 per window. You’ll have to consider cost factors like the window’s size, frame material, and type. Labor costs in your area will also impact the overall cost of the project, with window installation professionals charging about $40 per hour on average.
Different types of energy-efficient windows include:
Single-hung: $150–$2,500
Casement: $150–$600
Double-hung: $250–$3,000
Picture: $200–$650
Bay: $480–$1,920
Most professionals can enlarge a window in five to 10 hours, depending on the window location, the exterior wall material, how easy it is to cut through it, and how much buildback you’ll need after the installation is complete. However, more complex projects can take two to three days from start to finish.
Yes, you can install a bay window in an existing house. You’ll need to have a structural engineer draw up plans to add the necessary support to your exterior load-bearing walls and a general contractor to make the changes to the framing around the new wall opening. This will cost an average of $3,000. After that work is done, a window installer can set the new bay window in place.
Yes, you can use glass cleaner on outside windows, but only after you’ve rinsed away as much debris as possible. Using glass cleaner on top of a layer of dirt will only make it harder to clean.
Casement windows are safer against intruders than double-hung windows because they are extremely difficult to pry open from the outside. However, if you’re concerned about young kids or pets, double-hung windows have safety features you might prefer. With double-hung windows vs. single-hung or casement windows, you can lock the bottom sash and open just the top sash to keep children and dogs or cats safe.
