"New ROOFS - 2 (this site gives only new windows as options). Great decision on our part: HGE offered best value for the price, including best warrantee. One week from initial home visit to completion. Incredible, really, when I think about all the moving parts throughout this project. Highly recommend HGE! And Mark Lassiter, Sales Rep on ESVA/Northampton County a d project manager Mark Johnson: you all knocked this one out the park."

I have received many positive comments regarding the floors. Would recommend S and K without hesitation!! Also, the house sold! Julie J. in Newport News"

There are many high-quality window companies on the market, although Andersen, Pella, and Marvin continue to be the most popular nationwide. Some brands, like Sunrise and Soft-Lite, are popular regionally but may not be available in all parts of the United States. When comparing brands, look for features like increased energy efficiency, strong and durable materials, and long-lasting and all-encompassing warranties.
Glazing is always done from the outside of the window, while the inside doesn’t require any glazing. This is because the main purpose of glazing is to create a weather-tight seal where the glass meets the frame, protecting against drafts and moisture. Since the exterior is exposed to the elements, that’s the side that needs the weatherproofing.
ENERGY STAR®-certified windows are the most energy-efficient windows on the market. This certification means that the window meets strict efficiency guidelines set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency. While they might cost more upfront, they can save you money on your energy bills in the long run. ENERGY STAR®-certified windows lower household energy bills by an average of 12% annually.
Bifold windows work by using a track that allows panels to slide to the side and "stack" so they take up minimal space, leaving the largest opening. The sashes connect to each other with butt hinges or concealed hinges and to the window frame with the same type of hinges you’d find on a casement window. Some manual bifold windows also have casement stays or another piece of hardware to keep your windows in place when they’re open.
Installing bifold windows can take anywhere from three or four hours to several days. Smaller bifold windows that open vertically and fit inside your existing wall opening should take just a few hours and no longer than a day. Larger bifold windows, especially wider ones, may require structural work before your professional can install the window. The installation could take two to three days, depending on how much work your wall needs.
