"The install took 2 days which is what we were told before the work started. Everyone was great to work with and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have an egress window installed!"
"We just had Unicorp install new windows throughout our entire house. The window quality is excellent and the installation went very well. We were replacing 55 years old windows - and were very happy with the entire process, from selection, exterior color choices, and finally installation."
"Received very informative presentation on what to ask and look for when window shopping. The only reason I didn't go with WoW was due to another company being slightly less expensive."
"I would recommend this company to anyone needing glass repair. We had window glass replaced that had broken seals resulting in foggy windows. They were professional and got the job done right after the ordered glass arrived. I will use them again if needed."
"I was very happy with response from Eddis. He gave me a quote upfront and followed it up with an invoice via email. I paid him half at the beginning and another half when he came back to install the window. He was very professional and respectful of my house. I will definitely use A.R. Glass again if I have window repair needs."
"I had new glass installed in a patio door, a three window bay with floor to ceiling glass, and a front window. All were custom wood windows that were old. Metro did an outstanding job. They had a competitive quote. They were professional and friendly. They cleaned up after the work. My wife was happy. All good. High recommend."
"The Premier Windows and Glass has provided an excellent service for me! A frame of one of the windows in my condo was broken, and I looked for a company that would fix it and prolong the life of the window. So, I was very happy to discover The Premier Windows and Glass. Their technician was very polite, professional, and knowledgeable. Not only did he do a quality job on fixing the frame, but he also explained to me what needs to be done to prevent the window from breaking down again and avoid paying a lot of money for its replacement. In addition, the manager and technician responded to my service request in a prompt manner. The problem was solved on the day when I called the company. Last but not least, the company offers competitive service rates and does not push people to spend more money than is absolutely necessary. I would strongly recommend this company to anyone who needs to have a window fixed or replaced."
"Highly recommend this company for window repair. Highly professional, friendly and helpful. Pointed out issues we had missed and fixed all issues quickly with high quality work. Repaired/replaced windows which had blown seal/discolored, repaired window to smoothly open, fixed window screens. Could not recommend them more."
"Fantastic experience with JS Jackson! They did 2 projects for us - window replacement (6 windows for a townhouse) and cut and install new kitchen window. The leads on each project were very knowledgeable and great at explaining the process, answering questions, and advising on the best products for quality, budget, design, and function. Workers were friendly and professional. The office staff is very responsive at handling scheduling, permits, invoices, etc. It’s been several months and the windows are clearly properly installed, well-sealed, no leakage, and outside framing looks flawless. Would hire again!"
While some homeowners are under the impression that triple-pane windows can help to reduce sound, the truth is that triple-pane windows will not be much quieter than double-pane windows since having a third pane doesn’t make much difference in sound transmission. If you’re looking to reduce sound, you should consider installing laminated glass windows.
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.
Yes, every window needs a lintel. The lintel is necessary for redistributing the load above the window to the walls around the window. Windows aren’t meant to support a load, so lintels are an important part of a window installation. If you go to replace your windows and discover there are no lintels, you may need a window company or structural engineer to install lintels for your new windows.

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.
