"The installation went very well. We had to wait 3 months for an appointment, as they were really booked up, and we are over 100 miles from the factory. The crew showed up on time, and did an excellent job of removing the 77 year old windows that had the original framing. They set the new windows very professionally, and did a great job of caulking. They demonstrated the features and had us use them so we were sure we knew how to work them. We have window air conditioners for our small house, and they re-installed them in a leak-proof frame."
"MI Elite Window Cleaning sent a crew of 3 to clean our windows. We have a colonial home, so it makes it difficult for us to do the windows. They came on time; did a perfect job; gave me information about next season's cleaning procedure; were professional and pleasant. We will certainly hire them again in the spring. I've already referred the company to a friend. Thanks for such great service."

"I am extremely pleased with the fast response to my request for an estimate. The quoted cost was reasonable. The windows were ready when promised. The installation of the windows was impeccable! Working with Scott and his staff member was a delightful experience! I will definitely use this company again."
"Dale was extremely professional and friendly and very informative about the different tinting options. He was always easy to reach by phone if I had any questions and returned my calls immediately. He showed up on time and provided exceptional service. I will be having him do the rest of my windows. I've already noticed a huge difference with my windows. His prices were very fair and competitive, and I would highly recommend him."
"This is the cleanest my windows have ever been. I've had them cleaned many times by big companies but they have never put in the time and effort to get them truly, perfectly clean. Josh is a great guy too, came by the same day I called for an estimate and they were fully cleaned the next morning."
"I would highly recommend R and R Construction, INC to anyone looking to get new windows. They installed new windows in both of my establishments in Ortonville Mi, Bullfrogs Bar and Grill and The Boat Bar. They were very nice people who take pride in their work and it shows!"

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.

In some cases, you might need a permit for a window replacement, which is hard to get if you’re not a professional contractor. You should probably just hire a window replacement company in the first place because the job is complicated and can be dangerous for the average DIYer. You may not even save any money doing it yourself because contractors purchase materials wholesale.
Adding windows to a house is expensive. Budget roughly $5,800 to add a single window, and double or triple that to add two or three. In some cases, adding a single window can exceed $20,000, depending on the type of exterior wall, the size of the window, the type of window, local permit costs, and other factors.
Generally speaking, you should clean your windows and any associated fixtures and treatments every six months. Otherwise, clean them as needed to keep everything running smoothly. If you live in a part of the country with especially hard water, you may have to clean them three or four times per year, and the same goes for areas where insects, pollen, dirt, and other debris can soil your windows and potentially cause issues with the moving parts.
