"I was 110% satisfied with the entire window project. From start to finish, everyone involved in the project was professional, friendly, and skilled. I had 6 windows replaced with renewals and all other windows wrapped to match. The windows are quality, the trim that the installers put up is beautiful, and every last detail was covered...including every little nail hole covered in matching putty. The wrap put on my older windows looks great, with a quality caulking job. Every one of my windows has been improved. I highly recommend Renewal by Anderson and Heritage Window and Glass in Superior Wis."
"Contacted Ray about installing egress windows. Ray was able to make it out to our home and inspected quickly and gave us a very fair price. He hand dug the windows which elminated the mess that machinery can make. After the windows were done, Ray went above the original scope of work and helped fix some blocks in the foundation. He was also able to remove and replace some of the original basment windows. We are now able to start on finishing our basement months earlier than if we went with another company.
Ray does fast quality work at a competitive price. If you need egress windows installed I would contact Ray first."

"Jim was very helpful and personable to work with. I had recently moved to the Huntsville area and was unable to connect my wireless printer. There were also some things going on with my laptop that made me suspect a virus had somehow gotten on to it, it was running more slowly than usual, and I wasn't happy with the Win7 configuration I had done when I bought the computer. Jim came in and assessed the problems and we agreed on a time for him to take the laptop and reinstall the OS. He was able to get the wireless connection to work as well. He took the computer on a Friday evening and returned it Sunday evening in prime condition. A few weeks later I got an error message while reinstalling my accounting software so I called Jim. He talked me through the problem over the phone and I was able to get the program installed so I could use the program. Jim is great to work with, his pricing is very fair, he is prompt and reliable. I will definitely use his services again. "
"It turned out pretty well. There's a little bit of miscommunication when it came to what the promotion included from on their end. Other than that, it's been wonderful. We paid extra because we have a couple more windows and doors than their general that they cover so we had to purchase a couple of extras. They were very helpful about setting it up very easily. They sent us a new sensor because one wasn't working properly. It was a very good experience."
"If you want to work with a company that goes the extra mile, choose the G.F. Company. G.F. sided our house plus a new addition and they did the job in December and January and those months were pretty cold months. The job was excellent in spite of having to work in cold and inclement weather. They went the extra mile by finding aluminum trim to match the existing windows. Also installed some new windows on the main residence. We are very happy with the windows. As it happens, through no fault of G.F., one of the window panes cracked after a couple of weeks. G.F. replaced it, no questions or hassle. I think the real test of a company is how they solve a problem.....G.F. gets A+. Lastly, when you deal with G.F. you deal with the owner. I saw Ariel before, during and after the job was completed....real customer service. I may need some roofing work done: I'll call G.F. David Fagen "
The material around a window is simply called the window frame, but the individual pieces also have different names. The top portion of the frame is called the head, the side pieces are called jambs, and the bottom portion is called the sill. If you have multiple windows next to each other, you’ll also have a mullion, which is the frame piece that separates the individual windows. Windows stacked on top of each other are separated by a horizontal frame piece, which is called a transom.
Mulled windows are often more expensive than standalone windows. However, this is mostly because mulled windows tend to be larger than standard windows, meaning they require more materials and labor to manufacture and install, both of which drive up the cost. If mulled windows take up the same square footage as separate windows, they should cost about the same unless you need to reinforce your exterior wall to support the larger wall opening.
When you need new windows depends on a variety of factors, including the age of your windows, the age of your home, and the climate you live in. If you’re dealing with budget constraints, you don’t need to replace all your windows simultaneously.
When buying new windows, you should consider energy efficiency, safety, and aesthetics to choose the right window for you.
Replacing basement windows can be worth the cost if replacement is necessary. If your windows are leaking and leading to water damage in your basement, it’s absolutely worth replacing them. Similarly, if your basement windows are no longer insulating your basement or pose a security risk, you need to replace them.
In some cases, you may be able to save money by repairing a window instead of replacing it. A contractor can help you decide the right course of action.
On average, bay windows are three times as expensive as a standard double-hung window, so up-front cost is a major drawback. They also let in more natural light than most other types of windows, which can be a positive thing, but it can also lead to more aggressive fading and UV damage to furniture and flooring. Larger windows allow for more heat transfer, so bay windows tend to be less energy-efficient due to their size. Finally, window treatments for bay windows can be more challenging to find, and they’re more expensive than those you’d place over standard-sized windows.
