"We had the windows in our top 2 levels replaced a couple years back with RBA and after experiencing the great customer service and quality of windows we decided to come back to finish updating our lower level windows. This experience was great from start to finish again. The windows and install are of high quality. Great care was given to strengthening the window wells upon installation."
"Kyle presented himself really well and explained everything in detail. Iâ m happy to get my new roof installed and excited to see the final result. Deballa is a company I definitely recommend 10/10 and Iâ ll talk to Kyle when I am ready for windows"
"Jim was very helpful and personable to work with. I had recently moved to the Huntsville area and was unable to connect my wireless printer. There were also some things going on with my laptop that made me suspect a virus had somehow gotten on to it, it was running more slowly than usual, and I wasn't happy with the Win7 configuration I had done when I bought the computer. Jim came in and assessed the problems and we agreed on a time for him to take the laptop and reinstall the OS. He was able to get the wireless connection to work as well. He took the computer on a Friday evening and returned it Sunday evening in prime condition. A few weeks later I got an error message while reinstalling my accounting software so I called Jim. He talked me through the problem over the phone and I was able to get the program installed so I could use the program. Jim is great to work with, his pricing is very fair, he is prompt and reliable. I will definitely use his services again. "
"Install was easy. Up front cost was pretty low with Angie's List coupon. Monthly price is a little high compared to competing companies. Response time with alarms is excellent. I was advised to use glass break alarms within 10 ft of my first floor windows, which we installed correctly. I asked prior to installation if having one in the kitchen would cause false alarms due to dishes clanging, etc. I was told the glass break alarms are configured to a precise frequency that alarms with breaking glass. So, not a "no", but not really an answer. Well, every time we cook dinner, wash dishes or empty the dish washer, the kitchen glass break alarm gives a warning which would sound the alarm if it was set. This has caused us a number of false alarms while we've been away due to shifting bowls or plates in our drying rack. For the first several we've had to pay our police department $120 to check the house, and I was only notified after the first alarm that there was a cheaper option for a security company to drive by to check for a break in."
"When putting in the request for the plumbing issue, it was immediately responded by the CHW (Choice Home Warranty) Rep via phone, text and email with the appointment and company (IGD Plumbing) that will be providing the services. The window time for my appointment was convenient, as IGD Plumbing was able to contact me when the Tech was 30 minutes away. IGD Plumbing sent me a text with the tech's picture so that I would know who I will be expecting early the day of the appointment. The Tech arrived on schedule, promptly went to the plumbing issue and was immediately able to make an assessment of the issue. The hose had a pin hole leak and he was able to replace it and be on his way."

"Jimmy fulfilled the contract in a very satisfactory manner. He even made time to do my bay window which I sprung by surprise to him. Overall the job took 2 weeks. I am happy with my home's facelift :)"
"I have a home warranty on my 12year old home as it was included by the seller as part of the deal. It is the "FlexCombo" plan or something like that. I'm not typically a fan of 3rd party warranties and service contracts, I've had my fair share of bad experiences. This was my first time using AHS and so far, so good. They Met or exceeded my expectations for timeliness, prices, ease of contact. The A/C stopped cooling on Thursday so I called Friday and was able to navigate through an automated system relatively easily and the system told me the plumbing provider it was going to dispatch on Monday, reminded me of certain fee caveats, gave me a 4-hour service window and a confirmation number. I never spoke to a person and usually hate automated systems, but it understood me and navigated me easily enough. I also logged online, but was less than impressed with their website, but I was emailed a reminder. The provider came during the window and was professional and knowledgeable and had me up and running in about 20-30 min. with no attempt to deceive or upsell. If every experience is like this one, I will think twice and consider keeping this contract. "
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.
Windows provide light and a view of the outdoors without the inconveniences that the outside world can come with, like noise, rain, snow, and unpleasant scents. Vinyl windows also provide energy efficiency thanks to their insulating properties, keeping your home at its coziest temperature no matter what season it is. They’re also excellent noise dampeners, so your interior space can stay calm and quiet.
On average, bay windows are three times as expensive as a standard double-hung window, so up-front cost is a major drawback. They also let in more natural light than most other types of windows, which can be a positive thing, but it can also lead to more aggressive fading and UV damage to furniture and flooring. Larger windows allow for more heat transfer, so bay windows tend to be less energy-efficient due to their size. Finally, window treatments for bay windows can be more challenging to find, and they’re more expensive than those you’d place over standard-sized windows.
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.
The cost of window installation depends on several factors, including the window type, size, and frame material. Labor rates, the need for custom sizing, and any required structural modifications will also influence the final price.
