Q: How can you tell how old windows are?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re unable to find either of these, then your window was manufactured locally (oftentimes called a &ldquo;shop window&rdquo;). </p><p>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&rsquo;t tell you when the window was installed on your home, but can get you close.</p></div>

Q: What is the minimum width of a bay window?

• <div><p>Typically, a bay window is, at minimum, 42 inches wide. That said, you can always design a custom bay window that is smaller&mdash;box bay windows are usually less than three feet in width and are ideal for smaller spaces.</p></div>

Q: How is a bay window supported?

• <div><p>Bay windows are supported by braces and industrial strength cables, often at the top of the window but sometimes at the bottom. The bay window may need buttress supports if installed on the second floor. Wood screws on the interior also hold the bay window in place. Bay windows are heavy and need proper support to prevent sagging and wall damage. You need to ensure that the support system can hold the weight of the window and the roof cab over the window.</p></div>

Q: How thick should plywood be for boarding windows?

• <div><p>You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood&mdash;anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.</p></div>

Q: Should I use caulk or silicone around windows?

• <div><p>Use a high-quality caulk with silicone around your windows, as it&rsquo;s waterproof and shrink-proof. Or, you can use a caulk consisting of polyurethane or acrylic if you want to be able to paint over it. Caulk made from silicone is not paintable. Avoid using inexpensive caulk that has a resin or oil base. These caulks will not last long and may shrink and pull away from the window as temperatures go up and down.</p></div>

We had a very large project windows, doors and siding. The crews were friendly and professional, they made sure that any questions or concerns were answered. It took a little longer than expected but the job was done well and no corners were cut.

The siding, whole house capping and window capping really gave my home a beautiful upgrade and it really improved my home’s curb appeal. Mr. Romero was very accommodating and professional. I would highly recommend Romero Roofing to friends and neighbors.

"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."
