"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 Window Source of the Carolinas has built a reputation for quality work with each satisfied customer. Our sense of pride is apparent in every project we complete. Call us today to schedule an appointment.
"We are overall pleased with the install. However, the guys who installed them left broken glass on my bedroom door that I stepped on. Also, the caulk around the outside could have been smoothed out. Other than that, it was all good."
"They called/texted the same day of my request and scheduled a free evaluation appointment for 2 days away. Joel was on time for the appointment, gave me a very reasonable quote, and was able to fix my sliding glass door at that same appointment. Very pleased!!"
"Excellent work, transformed screened-in porch to a more livable space with Wincore sliding glass door, windows, and new luxury vinyl plank flooring. Rapid, professional installation."
"Unbelievable workmanship! They sent a crew out to finish my flooring of 1955 sq ft home plus install a new sliding glass door. They were professional, courteous and very knowledgeable. The Boss followed up, daily to make sure everything was going well! They did an awesome job on my flooring and door install. They finished the job in just a few days! I would definitely recommend these guys. They are great! I am very satisfied with their work and price!"
You can use hot, soapy water, white vinegar, rubbing alcohol, window cleaner, nail polish remover, WD-40, and cooking oil to remove glass labels. You can also apply heat with a hair dryer or steam cleaner. Use a plastic scraper or credit card to remove the adhesive, as a razor blade can permanently scratch your glass.
Yes. Vinyl windows have a PVC frame that wraps around a glass panel that is usually made up of two thinner glass panels separated by an insulating, noise-absorbing airspace. Some vinyl windows are triple-glazed, with three insulating air panels within them. This glass helps keep your interior quiet from outside noise while its insulating qualities help your space stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
Recycled glass is a durable and sustainable countertop material that lends a unique look to any kitchen or bathroom. Whether or not it’s the right choice for your home hinges on your design preferences and budget. However, for many, it’s an excellent option to make your kitchen stand out if you don’t want to go with an option like quartz or quartzite.
Rubbing alcohol on its own will not remove scratches from glass. You can, however, combine rubbing alcohol with baking soda—in a one-to-one mixed ratio—to create a paste that will help get minor scratches out of glass.
Getting a streak-free shine after cleaning your windows requires both the right cleaning solutions—which can either include warm water and dish soap or warm water and rubbing alcohol—and the right tools—namely, a squeegee and a microfiber cloth. To make your streak-free glass cleaner, combine one gallon of warm water with a few drops of dish soap, and mix. Apply with a sprayer or sponge, and then dry with a squeegee, microfiber cloth, or old black-and-white newspaper pages.
