"We replaced the windows in our 1933 home through the services of MadCity Windows. From the initial contact with their sales representative to final installation, the company provided top notch professional work. With the draft from the old windows and the cold of the glass, we are already saving on our energy bills. Our house had old, large windows, so they had to be custom made. As an industrial designer and interior designer, we find our windows to be of excellent quality."
"Tom and Anderson did an outstanding job installing my windows and answering my questions. I would recommend them to anyone needing to replace/ install new windows."
"Having a roof replaced is a major investment in your property. Before spending that kind of money, my wife and I wanted to know the job would be done right. We chose Xterior Solutions because we had used them in the past to replace a door and window and we were very pleased with the quality of their work on that job. Their price was lower than I expected, but of course, it's still a lot of money. Nevertheless, I can tell you from my own experience that if you hire these folks, the job will be done right and they will stand behind it. Karen Collum who came out to do the estimate was courteous and professional, but also friendly and genuine. I got a good impression from her. She didn't come across as someone trying to sell you something, but rather as someone trying to help you by showing you the options, explaining things, and letting you decide. I really like this kind of low-pressure approach. She was very efficient in her communication. I had the estimate back to look over within 24 hours. We got a break when an opening in their schedule meant they could do the job a couple weeks earlier than expected. On the day of the job, the crew rolled out of their vehicles and got right to work. I mean immediately. There was no standing around waiting to be told what to do. They all knew their jobs and worked together like a well-oiled machine. It was impressive. Some of the credit for that has to go to Manny, the crew chief. He and the entire crew exceeded expectations. They were also polite and friendly. The project manager, Steve Bohn, is an excellent communicator. He was friendly and pleasant to deal with. He explained the job clearly and answered all my questions. He took the time to explain not only what they were doing, but why. It was nice to be treated with respect. The materials arrived within a few minutes of the crew. Shortly after that truck left, the dumpster arrived to collect the demolition debris. It ran like clockwork, thanks to Steve. The job went smoothly and surprisingly fast. Within two hours my old roof was gone and the weak roof sections were being replaced with new wood. Everyone just kept moving. The new roof started to go on as soon as the old one was removed. I was exhausted just watching them. These guys had obviously done this many times before. By the end of the day I had an entirely new roof, in fact better than the old one because of the new ridge vent and higher quality materials than the original. My wife wanted me to mention how pleased she was with the clean-up after the job. The crew spent close to an hour carefully circling the house and yard picking up any stray materials. They even went back and forth across the lawn with a rolling magnet to pick up any loose nails. By the time they left, it was as if they had never been here, except that I had a brand-new roof with a lifetime guarantee. Nothing on the property was damaged. In fact they left my front porch and back deck cleaner than they had been before the job. The very next day, we had a thunderstorm, a real downpour. It was a treat to listen to the rain rolling off my new roof and down my clean gutters. I would recommend Xterior Solutions to anyone considering having their roof done. Yes, it's expensive, no matter who does the job, but it's money well-spent when you know the job was done right with high quality materials. Someday, when we decide to sell our house, the roof will be one of the positive selling-points. And in the meantime, we will enjoy the peace of mind in knowing our home is protected from the weather for as long as we live here. D.L.S. Hyde Park, NY August 2020"
"Excellent contractor! Very knowledgeable with simple and effective explanation. This service provider was able to successfully rebuild window trim, insulate/foam, and paint a great number of exterior windows efficiently. I definitely plan on hiring again. Great integrity and honesty with with a wide variety of skill. I've saved this company's contact information to hopefully help me do some insulation/sealing/weatherproofing in my basement."
"The installers were great. The salesperson made promises that he did not keep and he missed a window. When the person came to measure he also didn’t catch that I was having all my windows done except one. The windows look great. The response when I notified the co that one window was missed was very fast but added to my cost."

The average lifespan for a casement window is around 20 years, but some higher-end casement windows with more durable frame materials can last up to around 40 years before you need to replace them. You’ll need to carry out routine maintenance and window cleaning—and, on occasion, casement window restoration—to extend the lifespan of your casement windows. But they tend to wear more slowly than windows with sliding sashes because the weatherstripping sees minimal friction.
Depending on size, material, and labor, two windows can cost between $600 and $1,600.
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.
A window can fall off a track for a large number of reasons. The most common ones usually involve an issue with the track itself or the wheels that glide along it. If the track is bent or broken, the wheels can’t slide. If the wheels are broken or are full of debris, they won’t spin, and you will have to force the window open. The good news is that most window track issues are easy fixes, even for beginner DIYers.
