"We could not be happier with the job that Andy and Jesse did with the window replacements. The quality of the product and the professional manner of installation was suburb, the project was done in very timely fashion, there was minimal disruption, and the clean-up was complete. We are very happy we selected Comfort Windows, and we would certainly recommend then to others"
"The installers came on time and were totally professional, experienced and worked continuously until the job was done. The triple pane windows are fabulous because compared to our old two pane faulty windows, not only are they solid and beautiful with no wind blowing through, but also the nearby road noise is greatly reduced. We needed to use plastic film to insulate the old windows and when the wind blew the plastic would billow like sails! The new windows make our condo seem like a true home."
"They did a great job putting in our egress window. They were fast, professional, and reasonably priced. They gave us a fair estimate and went through the whole process with us. Would highly recommend"
"When we arrived with the moving truck we were welcomed to our new home that was cleaned beyond what was expected. Not only were the floors shining, the windows and walls cleaned, and the bathroom spotless, they also cleaned my appliances, and the insides of the kitchen and bathroom cabinets and the bathroom and bedroom closets. It was a relief to have everything and more done when we arrived to make the transition of moving in seamless!"
"The Team from N8S Exterior Solutions LLC was quick and did an excellent job. You have to appreciate any team that is organized, friendly and as thorough as N8S. They kept in contact and up on their ETA and progress and made you as a consumer feel as they valued your business. I would definitely use them again for snow removal and other project on the property after reading about what else they offer. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."
"Roger was professional, knowledgeable, and experienced. He completed the window and door repair work in a timely and efficient manner; I highly recommend Nickel city repair and would hire him again."
Window capping costs between $1 and $2 per linear foot. Since your average window size is 24 by 36 inches, you’re looking at 10 linear feet in total, or $10 to $20 per window. Labor adds another $30 to $100 per hour to the project. If you have custom windows, you’ll spend more to have your windows capped. Fiberglass tends to cost more than vinyl and aluminum, while vinyl costs the least but has the shortest lifespan and may have a higher long term cost.
Replacing window glass instead of the entire window is more cost-effective, maintains the frame's aesthetics, and reduces waste. It improves insulation and energy efficiency and can be completed more quickly with minimal disruption to the home.
The best thing to clean windows with is a mixture of white vinegar, warm water, and dish soap. This will remove dirt, pollen, and grime without destroying any tints or protective films on your glass. You can also use a commercial window cleaner, but make sure to choose one that doesn’t have ammonia in it, as this can damage window coverings and frame materials over time.
No, it isn’t necessary to have energy-efficient windows. However, if you care about your energy bill and making your windows more energy efficient, fixing any heat, UV, or air transfer issues is an excellent way to lower your bills and keep your house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
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.
