"Good. He arrived on time and was respectful. He left a couple of handles screws not tightened which I guess was an oversight. I found a screwdriver and tightened them. He did not clean up behind himself. Other than that I am pleased with the job he did."
"The installation of the new windows went ok. Only complaint I had is that the color selection was limited, and the white I had to select did not match the off-white of the window trim."
To tell if a window is single or double-pane, focus on the edge. Double-pane windows have two glass layers separated by a spacer, which you can usually see around the edges. For single-pane windows, it’s just one sheet of glass. Another easy trick: shine a light at the window—single-pane glass reflects once, while double-pane glass reflects twice. Lastly, if you feel both sides of the glass on a cold day, double-paned windows will feel warmer because of the insulating gap between the panes.
Glass block windows typically last for 15 to 30 years, which is slightly less than the 20- to 50-year lifespan of standard windows. You can extend their life by resealing them every few years. Professional installation is also key to ensuring the windows are placed correctly and will function properly for years to come. A professional installer will have the necessary skills, tools, and knowledge to install these features and can identify potential issues like damaged frames or cramped areas during a consultation.
Window cleaning depends on how the cleaning service defines their deep cleaning tasks, so pay attention to the details. You certainly should make sure window cleaning is included in the package. Some services will include it as an add-on, so you may have to pay extra. Find out if the cleaning includes interior windows only, or interior and exterior windows. Exterior windows may cost more.
Most manufacturers have their name imprinted somewhere on the window, such as the spacer bar, hardware, or frame. Other manufacturers will include an identification number printed on the glass itself. If you’re unable to find either of these, then your window was manufactured locally (oftentimes called a “shop window”).
With a manufacturer name (or even better, the identification number) you can attempt to research the information to find out when the product was made. Keep in mind this won’t tell you when the window was installed on your home, but can get you close.
Arched windows are slightly more expensive than standard rectangular ones, but they only cost $50 to $100 more per window. However, adapting a rectangular wall opening to accept an arched window can add $200 to $400 to your total, making them a more expensive option over sticking with a standard window replacement.
