"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!"
"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."
"I could not be any more pleased with the end result of A-Z Window Cleaning. They were ontime, polite and efficient. Windowns cleaned inside and out, screens cleaned and all of the sills wiped down. Results better than expected. I will definetely use them again in the future"
"Precision did a great job measuring, and purchasing the windows we wanted. The installation team was knew what they were doing, and made quick work of the old windows and had the new ones in. However, they did not come prepared to insulate the windows. Had we not asked at a critical time during the installation our windows would haven drafty during the winter. "
"The work went very well. Bob restored the vertical members at the corner of the house and buttoned it up nicely. His initial estimate of about a day and a half's work for this job would have run to about $1500, but he was able to nearly complete it in a single day, which allowed me to hire him for the additional work on the porch deck and fascia. He formed bevel joints in the fascia boards instead of just butting them up, which made for a better looking and tighter joint, and installed louver vents for the necessary ventilation. As we discussed the work, he gave me some helpful recommendations of things I could do myself (caulking etc.) to avoid future problems. He also included a written estimate for another job (replacing a basement window) that we had discussed as a possibility for spring '09. The extra step of sending me pictures of the work in progress helped to reassure me that he had assessed the problem correctly and was on track toward a correct repair. In addition, Bob was very pleasant to talk with and compare notes about home ownership and projects in general. I would not hesitate to use his services again."
Yes, storm windows should be tempered. According to the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors, tempered glass is stronger and can withstand temperatures higher than laminated glass. Tempered glass is important for storm windows because it protects against outside elements and household accidents by not producing sharp, jagged pieces when it breaks or shatters.
Yes, most manufacturers and contractors offer warranties covering materials and labor. It is important to confirm the specific terms of the warranty before purchasing.
If your double-glazed windows are letting in a lot of noise, it might be because of improper installation. You may need to apply an acoustic caulk around the window to close any gaps or hire a window installation expert to fix the windows. Double-glazed windows are typically more effective at reducing noise when they have thicker glass panels or have a gas filling, like argon or krypton, between the two glass panels.
Yes, egress windows must meet local building codes for size and accessibility. Professional installers ensure compliance.
