"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."
"I have to say that Matt, Dave and Rich were amazing! They were professional, friendly and cleaned up after themselves! I will tell anyone I know looking for windows to call Rite Window for sure. Happy customer Darlene"
"After getting Several Quotes from different contractors in the area Derrick from AJ Windows and Door Solutions had given me the best Quote by far. I was only planning on installing the OKNA 600 series windows and one French Door, but with the Savings I got with AJ Windows and Door Solutions I was able to upgrade to the OKNA 800 series Windows and replace two Patio Doors instead of just one. James and his crew arrived early on the day of the install. They replaced 14 double hung wooden windows with new OKNA double hung 800 series Deluxe windows. They also replaced my Patio Door, and my French Door with OKNA Elegante Sliding doors which are incredible doors. James and his crew were so professional, and they knew what they were doing. By the afternoon they had completed the job. Tom who is the owner even stopped by to oversee the job. These OKNA 800 Series windows are beautiful, and the installation was awesome. I highly recommend you consider AJ Windows and Door Solutions out of Shoemakersville PA for your window project. You won't be sorry you did! I will definitely use them in the future for any other work that needs to be done on my house."
"I have used them twice, once to clean my windows and again to clean my house. They did a great job, very friendly and professional will defiantly use them again"

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.
While clean windows don't automatically increase home value, they make your home look more attractive from the outside, and since the exterior is the first thing a potential buyer will see, it can help make a good first impression that paints the rest of your home in a positive light. Educated homebuyers will see that your home is well cared for if they see clean window tracks and sparkling window glass, which can contribute to an overall positive opinion of your property. Clean windows give the impression that the rest of the home—including systems and appliances—is probably well-kept, too.
Casement windows can either be left or right opening, and every window manufacturer makes both so that you can choose which works best for your space. In many cases, you’ll want one left-opening and one right-opening casement window to sit on either side of a picture window or to act as the side panels in a bay window. Just remember that the direction is described from the curb. An FCL (from the curb left) hinges out to the left if you’re looking at the exterior of your home, and an FCR (from the curb right) hinges out to the right.
A window may fail because of age, defective mechanisms, or moisture. Depending on the issue, the window may be fixed with simple repairs. Otherwise, you’ll have to invest in replacing it. You can avoid damaged windows but keeping up with window maintenance.
Storm windows are placed outside of already-installed windows. Regular windows are installed into a frame, offering a barrier to the elements but no special protection. Storm windows add extra protection to regular windows, reduce noise, and improve insulation. Replacing a regular window involves a different process than installing a storm window.
