Our goal is simple: honest work, quality craftsmanship, and treating every property like it’s our own.
"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."
"The experience was quite enjoyable. didn't have any issues or concerns, went with the contractors recommendations and job was completed in a timely manner. The windows were guaranteed for life which is a good things these days and manufacture has been in business for very 40 years so if you are looking to get replacement windows go with West Penn Windows & Doors. They also installed a new bathtub/shower as well. The bathroom/shower looks amazing and I am really satisfied with the way it turned out. Was for a rental so it actually looks nicer then my own bathroom, now that I know what my options are I will definitely hire them to do my bathroom at my house so I can have the same thing!"

Many kinds of window screens, such as solar screens, are designed to reduce the amount of harmful ultraviolet rays that pass through them and enter your home. The materials typically have UV-blocking properties. However, they may not completely eliminate all UV rays from passing through your home. Different window screens are designed for different purposes, and not all are designed to block or reduce UV rays. Do your research to make sure you’re getting the type of window screen to suit your needs.
Window screens can help keep some heat out of your home, which is one benefit of using them in summer. It’s also the reason experts suggest removing your screens in winter—so it’s easier for the sun’s warmth to filter into your home. This will keep you cozier and potentially reduce your heating bills.
Most window screens in residential homes are designed to be removed from the inside, especially with double-hung, single-hung, and casement styles. That said, some setups require exterior removal. Older homes or custom installs may have exterior clips or brackets, and sunscreens are almost always mounted on the outside. Before removing your window screen, look at how it is held in place.
Pet-resistant, vinyl-coated polyester is one of the strongest window screen materials available, with some manufacturers touting a 7x increase in strength compared to standard fiberglass screens. Stainless steel security screens are also extremely strong, but they’re not suitable for coastal areas due to the risk of corrosion from salty sea air. If sea air isn’t a concern, stainless steel is extremely tough.
Rescreening your porch can take a few hours to a whole day, depending on the size of the enclosure and the amount of screen that needs replacing. If you decide to have a professional handle the rescreening, be sure to get a timeline and a cost estimate so you know how long you’ll be without the screened-in space.
