"The contractor scheduled our initial meeting almost immediately. When he first arrived he removed the window, that was broken, for measurement. He noted the size and explained that it would be ordered and should take 7-10 days. He followed up and let me know the progress. Once window was completed by manufacturer he scheduled the appointment to replace the window, keeping me updated and aware. He installed the window on the day he scheduled and the window looks great. I would definitely Ro again for any window needs and would recommend him as well."
"Steve from Sun control contacted me shortly after my request, gave me a reasonable quote, came and completed the job two days later. Looks great, and solved a sun glare problem in a room frequently used for TV, that had two quarter round windows about 18 ft high with no window treatments. He was professional and neat, and it was great doing business with him. Glad I used Home Advisor to find this business."
"Beyond impressed! Rob came out, made recommendations on a window film product that will give me privacy yet still let the natural light shine through. Install was flawless, recommendation couldnt have been better, Rob and his crew really took care of my business. They were polite, informative and they cleaned like they were never there. Thanks Rob and crew!"
"Excellent workmanship and products I have had three installations with Power in the past two years. I first used them for a new roof and gutters. The workers were all knowledgeable in their area of work. Clean up was good although some nails kept showing up over time. Next I had the 2nd floor windows and some 1st floor windows replaced, 9 in total. Installation went well and they cleaned up beautifully afterwards. I love the windows! They are a beautiful and energy efficient product. Lastly, I recently had a bay window replaced in my kitchen with the same type window. The workers ere all friendly and explained what would be done. The area was draped with plastic to cut down on dust. Clean up was excellent inside and outside! The window is beautiful and the framing on the outside of the window matches the other windows and the small roof above the bay window was replaced with the same roofing as the rest of the house. I would choose them again for any future projects."
Before purchasing, it’s good to weigh the pros and cons of vinyl windows. Vinyl windows offer several advantages over other types of windows. Vinyl windows are more affordable than most other window types, and they’re also very energy efficient. Vinyl windows are also low-maintenance, weather-resistant, and easy to install.
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.
Whether or not it's worth it to install double-hung windows depends on several key factors. First, double-hung windows cost more than single-hung windows, so if you’re looking to lower costs, you might find it more worthwhile to choose single-hung windows. If you want the lowest maintenance requirements, though, double-hung windows are easier to clean.
Double-hung windows also offer better ventilation, making them a good option for bathrooms and kitchens. Single-hung windows have better energy efficiency than double-hung windows because they have only one moving part.
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.
To lower your home’s humidity level overnight, you can open your windows when the air is less damp. This tactic allows air to circulate around the window, preventing condensation from forming.
