"The rest of my new Anderson replacement windows were installed this fall and I am very pleased with them. The job was scheduled for 4 days but the installers completed in 3 days. The installers were very polite, professional and neat. All the windows are fantastic and especially pleased with the look of the new basement windows which look so much better than the original ones. It is also nice to not have any more winter frosted windows. I would definitely recommend Renewal by Anderson to anyone needing new windows."
"Professional and pleasant. I called a half dozen companies and they were the only ones to show up. Gave me a fair price for the work to be performed. My neighbor was curious about I was having done, came over and decided to have work done for him. I am very happy and will likely use them again."
"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!"
"Rasmus installed the exterior and interior doors of our home. He did an excellent job. He is very efficient and professional. I would like to hire him to complete more work for our home."
"Nexus pro did an awesome job on my pool deck. Added features for ease of cleaning.
Nexus has great attention to the details and quality is important."
"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!"
It depends on the insurance company policy, but many companies will offer a discounted rate if you install impact or hurricane windows as they reduce the chance of damage to your home. If you are interested in this perk, make sure to discuss it with your insurance company, as they will likely need your windows to meet certain standards, such as those set by the American Society for Testing and Materials.
Yes, storm windows should be tempered. According to the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors, tempered glass is stronger and can withstand temperatures higher than laminated glass. Tempered glass is important for storm windows because it protects against outside elements and household accidents by not producing sharp, jagged pieces when it breaks or shatters.
Clean with non-abrasive cleaners and a soft cloth, avoiding ammonia-based products that can degrade the film.
Hot water removes grime more efficiently than cold water and evaporates more quickly so that your windows will dry faster. However, you may want to use cold water instead if your windowsill paint is chipping or peeling because heat can worsen this condition.
If your windows weren’t manufactured with a retaining clip to receive muntins and hold them in place, you should contact a window company near you to add them for you. A professional will bond the muntins directly to the glass to hold them in place, and they’ll make sure the edges line up nicely with your window frames. If your window does have retaining clips to hold muntins in place, you can just pop the muntins into the clips.
