"I contacted Scott Harlow through Angi and I couldnâ t be more pleased with his work. Scott removed the old film on 15 of my sunroom windows and replaced it with new UV and heat retardant film. The windows look fantastic. Not only is Scottâ s work excellent, but he is also very pleasant, prompt and a true expert at his craft. I recommend him highly and without reservation."

"Konstantin has become our first call when we have any questions about our house. He personally came to our home and spent a few hours talking with me about possible solutions to the many problems our Cape Cod home had. In the end, the investment of time and money was substantial, but we could not be more happy with the end result: new windows, siding, roof, doors and an extensive interior architectural reconstruction that no one else wanted to touch. The entire Kreative Barnes team is professional, friendly, respectful and talented. Whoever is able to secure Konstantin's expertise will be very happy they did."
"We first met Nick last April when we were looking to have some trim boards, windows and cedar shingles replaced. He came out right away and spent well over an hour with us going over what we needed and what he thought was in good condition. He was very knowledgeable. He gave us a fair quote and we hired him. Nick started the job when he said he would. His work ethic speaks volumes. We had such a good experience with Nick and his crew that we mentioned we were doing wood flooring throughout our main floor, the remaining old windows, demo an existing rock fireplace and demo and install a kitchen. He once again gave us a fair estimate and time frame. He started when he said he would and left the house clean. He even set up a makeshift kitchen for us and left us his own personal convection burner. He's thoughtful and his coworker Andy is just as thoughtful. Don't hesitate to hire NGB carpentry. You won't regret it."
"Jeff did a fantastic job fixing a glass sliding window pane in our condo. He responded promptly to my initial request for a quote, came to measure the window within a few days, and immediately ordered the glass to replace the broken pane. As soon as the glass arrived, he followed up and scheduled an install for the following day. When he came to the condo, he wore a mask, completed his work with incredible efficiency and skill, and was super friendly to us, putting us at ease. He runs a wonderful local business and I couldn't recommend his services more highly! Thank you Jeff!"
Vinyl window frames are by far the most popular window frames in modern homes. Many favored vinyl frames due to their affordability, durability, energy efficiency, and various colors and styles. Single-pane vinyl windows range from $200 to $900 per window, and double-pane vinyl windows range from $400 to $1,500 per window.
Tinting your windows will make your house darker since it will prevent some sunlight from getting inside. While you can choose a window film that is on the lighter side, there will still be reduced sunlight. If natural light is important to you, tinted windows might not be the best choice for your home.
Deciding whether to repair or replace a window depends on the specific issue, the window's age, and the cost-effectiveness of the solution.
Repair is often better for:
Minor issues such as a single broken glass pane, a stuck window, or small leaks. Repair is typically more affordable for isolated problems.
Replacement is the better long-term solution for:
Major problems like deteriorating or rotting frames, significant leaks, or drafts.
If your windows are over 15 years old, as repairs may only be a temporary fix for an aging unit.
If you have a widespread problem affecting several windows.
Actually, condensation can mean that your windows are more energy efficient because the seal keeps cold air out and warm air in. In some cases, windows with poor seals can lead to more condensation, but they may allow the cold and warm air to mix and reduce condensation. If you’re worried about whether or not your windows are properly insulated, have a pro assess them.
Drafts, condensation between panes, difficulty operating, or visible frames or glass damage are signs of needed repairs.
