"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."
"Replaced a cracked window pane. Company was professional and had strong communication and a fair price. Super happy with them! Technician was the NICEST!"
"We looked at several options for replacing our siding. We settled on Hardiplank on the front and Cedar Impressions on the sides and back along with new gutters and leaf guard. Then came the task of finding the right contractor and reviewing multiple bids. Not all contractors we found worked with these (particularly the Cedar Impressions). Bel Islands made a great first impression. I found Bel Islands from an online search and all the reviews were very positive, especially about the responsiveness, personal attention and quality of work. Andrei came over within a day or so to review the job and understand what we wanted to do. He provided valuable suggestions on some detail work that would both make it look nice and be more functional. He treated the job and made suggestions as if it was his house. He was very responsive as we went back and forth on color selections and some additional ideas. The team that did the work was great. They worked not only quickly (through some very hot days), but the attention to detail was great and it showed in the finished product. We had reviewed proposals from several contractors. Bel Islands pricing was very reasonable for what was being done and the overall value was fantastic as we were very pleased with our interactions with both Andrei and the installation team....as well as the great quality of work. I am not sure what better reference can be provided than just saying.....I would definitely use Bel Islands again for future projects."
"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."
New window installation costs range from $300 to $1,500 per window, depending on size, material, and energy efficiency features.
On average, bay windows are three times as expensive as a standard double-hung window, so up-front cost is a major drawback. They also let in more natural light than most other types of windows, which can be a positive thing, but it can also lead to more aggressive fading and UV damage to furniture and flooring. Larger windows allow for more heat transfer, so bay windows tend to be less energy-efficient due to their size. Finally, window treatments for bay windows can be more challenging to find, and they’re more expensive than those you’d place over standard-sized windows.
Yes, professional window cleaners will clean the surface of the glass on both the inside and the outside.

Arched windows are slightly more expensive than standard rectangular ones, but they only cost $50 to $100 more per window.
