"Our dog broke glass in our front window on a cold, Saturday afternooon in January. I called Glass by Ro and they were at my house in under and hour. Not only did they fix the glass, they took, care of the storm window, which had come off. Their work was immaculate and done with efficiency and care. Highly recommend! I would use them again for any window or glass needs. Fabulous work."
"Thomas delivered a detailed and exemplary window cleaning experience. Eleven windows cleaned inside and out. Even the front and rear entry doors were also meticulously detailed. Highly recommended."
"I used Star Windows and Doors LLC to replace the windows in our home. It was a pleasure to work with them - they were very responsive, and from start to finish the entire process smooth. The windows themselves look beautiful, and the installers did a great job with all the little details! I would recommend Star Windows and Doors LLC."
"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."
"I Love the windows. The installation crew were sloppy. They left debris from the old windows (nails)all over my deck and Patio. The new windows created their own mess leaving behind sharp metal shavings from the casing used to wrap the windows. The caulking looked like a toddler did it with a dry finger. On my foyer window the suction cup marks are still on it. On another window the casing was installed to make the window appear crooked. If they just examined their work after they finished they would have observed their poor craftsmanship and corrected it on the spot. We are very unimpressed by the install team. Also they took out a chunk of my hardwood floor by my front door."
"Jorge was great! He was quick to respond to my request and my windows look fantastic. Highly recommend him!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
Making a window in a basement larger costs an average of $4,200. You’ll need to pay an average of $550 to have a structural engineer plan the project, $500 to $1,500 for the installation labor, and an average of $2,200 for the excavation and window well installation. The remainder will go toward pulling permits, installing trim, and repairing drywall on the interior.
Common problems include broken latches, misaligned tracks, and worn seals. Regular inspection prevents major repairs.
Removing a window isn’t a very long process. Depending on several factors, it can take anywhere from 20 minutes to upwards of an hour. The size of the window greatly impacts the time it takes to replace it. Accessibility is another big component. If it’s hard to reach the window or reaching it is dangerous, anticipate it taking longer.
Lastly, if the old window is in poor condition, it could take longer to remove it safely—especially if the frame has wood rot and is structurally unsound.
