"With the frosted tent I have privacy but it still allows in the natural light. The two men that came to install the 10 roof professional, courteous, and weâ re well-qualified in the replication.The only thing I would suggest is the installers have some kind of disposable shoe protection when they come into a home for installation during inclement weather."
"The installers came on time and were totally professional, experienced and worked continuously until the job was done. The triple pane windows are fabulous because compared to our old two pane faulty windows, not only are they solid and beautiful with no wind blowing through, but also the nearby road noise is greatly reduced. We needed to use plastic film to insulate the old windows and when the wind blew the plastic would billow like sails! The new windows make our condo seem like a true home."
"What a beautiful job on my log cabin windows, which are all French windows. I canâ  t stop smiling!! I will definitely call Scott again. He was prompt, worked very hard, and really cared about the results."
"Over fifteen years, I originally met him for window install estimate, and we have been using him ever since for several of my properties! He is quick to respond to any necessary repairs and emergencies, should you have them come up!"

The windows look fantastic and have already made a noticeable difference in the temperature and noise levels inside. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of quality window installation."
"Marco and his partner did an outstanding job. He arrived on time, worked diligently, and we paid the agreed amount. He was exceedingly thorough. At one point, I joked, "Where did the window panes go?!" They were that clean. Yes, I would hire again, without reservation."
"Boost Construction cares about your home. From when Ed first came to our home, to the incredible work of Slav and his team, there was very thoughtful attention to detail. The price was reasonable, especially for the premium insulated vinyl siding we were interested in. Ed sent us an estimate promptly and answered our many questions. We did not feel like just another job. The quality work they advertised exceeded expectations in every way. Slavâ s expert craftsmanship made our home look fantastic. He and his team work hard, accommodating any requests and intuitively bringing up anything worth your input. Our large home has many complicated angles, which I wondered how a siding company could ever tackle them. Needless to say, they did so wonderfully and are more than capable of helping you with your home too. Please give them a call, as they will care about your home as much as you do."
Visibility through tinted house windows or privacy film depends on the lighting. During the day, the tint or film typically prevents people from seeing inside. However, at night, if you have lights on inside your home, the interior will be brighter than the outside, which allows people to see in. You can choose from various shades of privacy film, from lighter to darker, to optimize the level of privacy you want.
Installing bifold windows can take anywhere from three or four hours to several days. Smaller bifold windows that open vertically and fit inside your existing wall opening should take just a few hours and no longer than a day. Larger bifold windows, especially wider ones, may require structural work before your professional can install the window. The installation could take two to three days, depending on how much work your wall needs.
Most properly installed and maintained windows last between 15 and 20 years. Fiberglass windows last much longer than your average window. Since they don’t warp from temperature changes, rust, or rot, you might be able to hold onto fiberglass windows for up to 40 years. On the other hand, poorly maintained wood windows may only last for a few years.
During hurricanes or other major storms, high winds can cause objects and debris to fly through the air, which can break your windows. Depending on how strong the storm is, the winds themselves may be strong enough to break your windows, too. Investing in storm windows or hurricane shutters can help protect you against potential window breakage.
You should avoid using abrasive materials and harsh chemicals when cleaning windows. Abrasive tools like scrubbing pads, rough cloths, or steel wool can permanently scratch and damage the glass. Harsh chemical cleaners containing alcohol or ammonia can damage window treatments, frame materials, and special features like tinting. It is also best to use distilled or filtered water instead of hard water, which can leave spots or streaks. For best results, use a clean microfiber cloth to wash the glass and old black and white newspapers to dry it without leaving streaks.
