"We had a top to bottom, excellent experience with the local team from Universal. My wife and I had an in-home consultation, a measurement and the install completed in a little over a months time. As stated in a prior review, the cost is reflected in the quality of the workmanship. Our family could not be happier with our experience. Big thanks to Kyle, Ron, Mike and Dennis for the top-notch service. I can wholeheartedly recommend Universal Windows Direct to any homeowner in need of a new door, installed quickly and by a friendly, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Thank you again!"
"I contacted Scott Harlow through Angi and I couldnâ t be more pleased with his work. Scott removed the old film on 15 of my sunroom windows and replaced it with new UV and heat retardant film. The windows look fantastic. Not only is Scottâ s work excellent, but he is also very pleasant, prompt and a true expert at his craft. I recommend him highly and without reservation."
"I was very impressed. The two cleaners were both very efficient, personable and professional. His price was very reasonable as I live in a small condo. He did not charge me a high fee as if he were cleaning a big house. Windows are sparkling. I will have them come again when needed...Ty"
"Nikiya came to my home to help me choose windows to replace old windows that are leaking cold air in winter. With the price of oil this year, it is worth the money to do this work. His presentation was very well done, with demonstrations that help me to choose the windows for our home. Nikiya was friendly and extremely knowledgeable about his products, and I appreciate that."
"Did a great job fixing my broken window. Fair price and it's willing to share knowledge about how to fix the broken item. I will hire him back next time I have a handy man project to do."
"Everyone from the Sales rep, project manager, site manager and installers were very professional. The installers showed up on time and worked late each day. They cleaned up each night and at the end of the project. The project manager kept in contact with us everyday and showed up to go over daily progress. Very happy with the outcome of my siding and roofing project. Would definitely use Capital Construction in the future if needed."

Casement window types differ from standard windows in that they have a hinge on the side or the top of the window so that it can open inwards or outwards. If your casement windows open upward, they usually have a crank to operate them. Casement windows with side hinges typically operate like a door, opening and closing without a crank.
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.
Bay windows are expensive mostly because their above-average size means higher material costs. Unlike bow windows, most bay windows also include casement windows on either side of a picture window, and the opening mechanisms for casement windows drive up costs. You’ll also pay higher labor costs to install a bay window, as you’ll often need multiple technicians to lift the window into place.
You will need about half of a caulking cartridge to caulk one window. The average home has eight to 10 windows, so you would need about 4 or 5 cartridges to caulk every window in an average-sized house. However, you may not need to caulk all the windows at once. If just one window has a pesky draft, you may only need half of a cartridge to fill in the gaps.
Windows may need to be replaced after a hurricane if they’re severely damaged. For example, if you have windows with blown-out glass and a cracked frame, they will need to be replaced. It’s a similar story if you have windows with noticeable water damage. However, if your window pane has small cracks but the frame is still in good condition, you may be able to repair the window.
