"Two lovely ladies came around to talk to us about window replacement. We didn't need any windows, but we very much needed a new sliding glass door. They were very patient with all our questions and concerns and even stayed late so they could talk to both of us. Thank you so much Hope and Elise!"
"From start to finish my experience with Mad City windows was excellent, from calling to get an appointment for estimate, for measurement of windows and installation. Everyone was pleasant, knowledgeable and proficient. The windows were in stalled in one day with all the old windows and site cleaned. The windows look great. I am very happy with the entire procedure. From start to finish was 6 weeks."
"The installers were great. The salesperson made promises that he did not keep and he missed a window. When the person came to measure he also didn’t catch that I was having all my windows done except one. The windows look great. The response when I notified the co that one window was missed was very fast but added to my cost."
"great group of guys from start to finish. had the window out so they put plasric up to help keep the cold out, they kept checking with us to make sure we were not to cold.Checked the work through out the project to make sure all was good.. When finished they with us checked to make sure window did not stick when trying to crank it to open. The 2 workres left as they had completed the job, and in a matter of minutes their boss called to wanting to come over to check things out. I would HIGHLY RECCOMMEND THIS GROUP FOR YOUR PROJECTS."
"They are very good came to measure a few times for the siding, windows & insulation. Send me e-mails with the progress in ordering & shipping. windows & insulation are being done tomorrow 7/7/17. Siding will be done in a few weeks."
"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!!"

"Greg was able to squeeze us in the day after I called him. He arrived earlier than expected and quickly fixed the window at a very reasonable price. This is the 2nd time we have used him and will continue to call him for any glass repair needs in the future. "
"I rate them high overall. They gave a good price for the windows and were little expensive for the shower door and the bathroom door. They really did a fine work. When they did the windows they were picky doing the measuring but they brought it on time. It had to be customer designed, so it took a few weeks. They had to remove the old window. They had to be very careful while removing the trim around it. I was very pleased with them. I am glad they did the work."
Mold on windows forms due to excess moisture from condensation, poor ventilation, or leaks. Cold glass surfaces can attract condensation, especially in winter. High indoor humidity, lack of airflow, or dust accumulation are also contributors. To prevent mold growth, improve ventilation, regularly clean sills, and consider using a dehumidifier or sealing any leaks.
Yes, home appraisers look at your windows when appraising your property to determine the market value of your home. They’ll factor in the type of windows, quality, condition, whether or not there are screens covering the windows, frame materials, size, insulation, and more to come up with an unbiased property assessment.
A window can fall off a track for a large number of reasons. The most common ones usually involve an issue with the track itself or the wheels that glide along it. If the track is bent or broken, the wheels can’t slide. If the wheels are broken or are full of debris, they won’t spin, and you will have to force the window open. The good news is that most window track issues are easy fixes, even for beginner DIYers.
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.
Yes, triple-pane windows are more resistant to condensation. They help to reduce interior condensation that forms as a result of warmer temperatures inside your home than outside it. This makes them a good fit for cooler climates, particularly with newer, well-sealed homes that retain higher levels of moisture in the winter months.
