"I have to say that the window installation i experienced with Clayton and his crew was a fun and pleasant experience. They were warm assuring and total craftsmen. I would recommend them to anyone considering a window project."
"We replaced the windows in our 1933 home through the services of MadCity Windows. From the initial contact with their sales representative to final installation, the company provided top notch professional work. With the draft from the old windows and the cold of the glass, we are already saving on our energy bills. Our house had old, large windows, so they had to be custom made. As an industrial designer and interior designer, we find our windows to be of excellent quality."
"The sales rep. was great, he worked with us to get financing. The installers were courteous & cleaned up before they left. I love my windows & I got an awesome deal. I would highly recommend this company."
"I had a picture window replaced and Deigo and Mike did a fantastic job. The window actually came in a couple of weeks early, they showed up exactly when we scheduled the install. The job was done quick and they cleaned up after finished. I was very impressed with Woodwrights. I will need new windows installed in the spring and I intend on using Woodwrits. They offered great pricing.

"We needed to replace a front door screen that had the frame damaged. Ned did the research to find a replacement and ordered it for us. Saved me a lot of time and effort."
The type of casement window you have depends on where the hinges are located, the number of sashes, the style, and how the windows open. Single casement windows are popular casement windows that use a handle or crank to open. If you have two casement windows side by side, you likely have double casement windows.
Windows that swing inward can tip you off to having in-swing casement windows, while windows that open from the bottom and swing outwards are top-hinged. If you can open your windows by pushing them outwards like a door, you may have a type of push-out window.

Most manufacturers have their name imprinted somewhere on the window, such as the spacer bar, hardware, or frame. Other manufacturers will include an identification number printed on the glass itself. If you’re unable to find either of these, then your window was manufactured locally (oftentimes called a “shop window”).
With a manufacturer name (or even better, the identification number) you can attempt to research the information to find out when the product was made. Keep in mind this won’t tell you when the window was installed on your home, but can get you close.
Glass block windows typically last for 15 to 30 years, which is slightly less than the 20- to 50-year lifespan of standard windows. You can extend their life by resealing them every few years. Professional installation is also key to ensuring the windows are placed correctly and will function properly for years to come. A professional installer will have the necessary skills, tools, and knowledge to install these features and can identify potential issues like damaged frames or cramped areas during a consultation.
