"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."

Consider energy performance ratings, durability, aesthetics, and ease of maintenance when selecting windows for different environments.
Yes, professional window cleaning is worth the investment. Regular deep cleanings help keep your windows looking new, extend their lifespan, and boost your home's curb appeal. By removing dirt, dust, and other debris, you can reduce the risk of damage and accelerated wear to window frames and components. It also improves your home’s energy efficiency by keeping insulation and weatherstripping in good working order, potentially lowering your energy bills. Furthermore, annual or bi-annual cleanings can help identify problems like leaks or cracks early, before they escalate into expensive water damage. You can often recuperate the cost of cleaning through energy savings and by avoiding premature window replacement.
The cost of window replacement is about $290 per window on average, with a typical price range of $180 to $410. However, costs can be as low as $100 or as high as $780 or more. The total price depends on several factors, including the size, type, brand, and number of windows being replaced. The frame material and glass type also significantly impact the cost.
Frame Material Costs (per window):
Aluminum: $275
Vinyl: $550
Wood: $800
Composite: $900
Fiberglass: $1,250
Glass Type: Simple double-glazed windows are cheaper ($3 to $6 per sq. ft.) than stronger tempered glass ($12 to $14 per sq. ft.).
The lifespan of smart windows or smart glass can range from 10 to 50 years, depending on the specific type, brand, and usage. When activated, smart glass is rated to last for about 100,000 hours. Since the windows are not typically on 24/7, this can translate to a lifespan of 20 years or more. Smart window film, a related product, generally has a shorter lifespan of around 10 years.
The average cost to repair a window is about $400, with prices typically ranging from $175 to $1,500. The final cost is influenced by several factors, including:
Number of Panes: Single-pane repairs average around $200, double-pane repairs range from $200 to $400, and triple-pane repairs can cost $600 to $1,100.
Type of Repair: Minor fixes for a track, seal, or sash are more affordable than repairs for broken glass or window frames, which are typically the most expensive.
Window Details: The size, type, and material of the window affect the price.
Accessibility: Windows on upper floors or in hard-to-reach locations may increase labor costs.
Other Factors: The extent of the damage, local labor rates, and the need for emergency service will also impact the total cost.
For comparison, a full window replacement can range from $175 to $1,800 or more for high-end materials or large windows like bay or bow windows.
