"Thomas and Easton were amazing, extremely helpful, extremely professional, polite and just all around awesome to work with. I love how the the exclusive GlassWing window is very good quality made from pure vinyl."
"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."
"Great windows, great service. Had an issue replacing a huge indoor/outdoor terrarium with a Pella Window This was a difficult transition, which I feared might not be possible. Enver and Big Mike fabricated a new window jamb and with artful skill they did a great job. They showed up on the minute of the appointment, were very gracious and friendly, and allayed my fears this might not be possible. A+"
"This will be the third time my husband and I have had to change out our windows in our home since we bought it back in 1994. First was Anderson, Second was Ressler and now finally we have Your Home Improvement Companies windows. What an amazing difference it makes to have the right windows in our home. We are so thankful to have such great quality windows and an amazing company to back them with a TRUE lifetime warranty. They have such a quick and efficient install crew that knows how to install windows the right way. I would highly recommend their Sales Consultant James Callahan. He gave us thorough in-depth knowledge about their product and their company. I recommend you request YHIC for any future home remodeling needs!"
"Professional, courteous and respectful throughout the whole process! The windows are beautiful and the quality is remarkable. I recommend working with them and we will contact them again when we are in need of any service they provide."
I can not say enough good about the work Josh and his crew did. They were very professional and worked with my insurance company to get roof repair covered due to wind damage. I had faulty shingles put on 12 years ago and insurance company was trying to say this was all due to the poor shingles, Josh worked with adjustor and showed her the wind damage aside from the faulty shingles. Also had sliding window installed in attic later and that turned out very well.
Very happy with their work and everything done in a timely manner. Clean up was great.
"Our project was actually a crawlspace encapsulation. We have a lake cabin that was built in the 1960's. It had a dirt floor in the crawlspace with bare block masonry foundation walls. It also had old, damp batt insulation that was falling down from the joist spaces. American Waterworks came in, removed the old insulation (a nasty job!), laid down a 2 layer moisture barrier system and spray foamed the foundation walls and rim joist area. I can't believe what a difference this has made to our air quality, much warmer floors. We used to have to wipe down the windows every morning during the winter because of condensation. Not any more! I would highly recommend this company if you have the same needs!!"

"Full basement finishing. Work included framing, drywall, painting, trim and cabinet install, and floor tiles. He also hung all doors and installed one egress window."
The maximum protruding distance allowed for a bay window is determined by its flank angles. 30-degree flanks can extend about 13 to 14 inches. If the angle is 45 degrees or larger, then the bay window can stick out about 19 inches. If the window extends too far out, it would cause structural instability and safety concerns.
Impact windows are a type of window made with impact-resistant glass, designed specifically for hurricanes. The glass, treated with ethylene-vinyl, can withstand winds up to 200 mph, as well as flying debris. Brands sometimes test their impact windows with large missile impact tests.
Impact windows may be required in some places. For instance, the Florida Building Code requires homes to have impact-resistant windows if they live within a mile of the coast where wind speeds can reach 110 mph or more.
Yes, you can always make an existing window bigger, but the job complexity varies widely depending on the location of the window and the framing around it. Exterior walls are always load-bearing, so making windows wider will require structural changes that make for a more complex but doable project. Making windows taller often won’t require structural changes.
Yes, caulking windows is worth it. Because moisture and air leaks are big sources of common window problems, caulking can be an inexpensive and easy way to eliminate both water and air from getting in.
On average, hurricane windows last between 20 and 30 years. But some windows only last 10 years, while others can last 50 years or longer. Vinyl hurricane windows have a shorter lifespan than aluminum, so invest in high-quality hurricane windows and properly maintain them to get the most out of your investment.
