"Very happy with my new windows. I had windows previously installed that were not installed properly. I was so stressed because to replace these particular windows I needed a contractor to fix the header, new drywall, and electrical wiring moved. Not only did Renewal by Anderson replace the window, but they helped me find a contractor to fix the window header. Renewal by Anderson helped me with everything and even easily worked around my chaotic nursing work schedule. Thanks so much Renewal by Anderson!"
"Project- Dig trench and install root barrier for tree roots that are invading my property from my neighbors tree. Also trimmed up the ash tree in the back. Excellent job on both, completed both projects in good time and did a great job was happy with the results. Will definitely call again."
"The project was high quality work. Had my barn door installed and also all interior doors replaced. Painted, hung, and all hardware updated and installed. Also not only was I highly satisfied with the work but also they finished on time and had great detail to the overall project! Highly recommend and definitely going to use them for any future projects!"
"Throughly amazed with the quality of work these gentlemen did on our home. They were extremely hard workers that returned my phone calls, showed up to work when they said they would and cleaned up the work area each day. You donâ t find many younger people with this work ethic any more. Would highly recommend them and will use them again!"
"Summer did a fantastic job. My carpet is 19 years old and had gone through a lot of puppy training over the years. Summer was really affordable and made my carpet look as good as when I moved in to this house 13 years ago. I highly recommend her, and check her website. She does so much more than just carpet cleaning."
"We had an exceptional experience with Xtreme Xteriors. We were able to do window replacement on our 1978 built home. They turned out great. After that project, we had them do a bathroom remodel for us. They replaced our old fiberglass tub with a nice new walk-in shower. They did everything start to finish!"
"Easy to work with, schedule work with, show up when they say, get the job done right and when they say! Very good at communicating, they stepped up took the job when my other contractor had to back out at the last minute!!! They got the job done fast and did an awesome Job for us!!!! Theyâ ll make many more customers happy too!!! Recommend them any time!!!"
DIY is possible with the proper tools. Professional installation ensures a proper seal and energy efficiency.
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.
Fiberglass and wood windows last the longest, with lifespans of up to 45 years or more with proper maintenance. Wood windows are more expensive than vinyl and aluminum windows, but they’re 10% to 20% less expensive than fiberglass windows. Repairing and restoring wood windows is also easier than with fiberglass windows, so they’re considered the more durable option overall.
The type of casement window you have depends on where the hinges are located, the number of sashes, the style, and how the windows open. Single casement windows are popular casement windows that use a handle or crank to open. If you have two casement windows side by side, you likely have double casement windows.
Windows that swing inward can tip you off to having in-swing casement windows, while windows that open from the bottom and swing outwards are top-hinged. If you can open your windows by pushing them outwards like a door, you may have a type of push-out window.
The key difference between a hung window and an awning window is that hung windows (including single-hung and double-hung versions) slide vertically to open and close. In contrast, awning windows have a hinge at the top and open outward at an angle. You can use both types of windows throughout your home, but awning windows are best suited for kitchens and bathrooms.
