"This will be the third time my husband and I have had to change out our windows in our home since we bought it back in 1994. First was Anderson, Second was Ressler and now finally we have Your Home Improvement Companies windows. What an amazing difference it makes to have the right windows in our home. We are so thankful to have such great quality windows and an amazing company to back them with a TRUE lifetime warranty. They have such a quick and efficient install crew that knows how to install windows the right way. I would highly recommend their Sales Consultant James Callahan. He gave us thorough in-depth knowledge about their product and their company. I recommend you request YHIC for any future home remodeling needs!"
"The whole process went smoothly. Product was available within estimate dates. Scheduling occurred per our needs. The removal of exiting tub/shower and installation of new shower was completed in one day. Shower looks great. Everyone involved was extremely friendly. Installation team installed all accessories after consulting with us on locations. Great Job all around. We are now engaged with the company to replace our upper floor windows later this year."
"Freddie and his helpers made the windows of this old house shine! They were undaunted by our 2-story house with its old-styled combination windows and the sheer number of windows and panes. They took such care with the window imperfections that made removing them a challenge. I appreciated Freddie’s calm and confident approach to guiding his team and solving problems. I also appreciated his on-site preliminary inspection and costing out the job. He could accommodate my schedule and kept the Communication going over the 1 & 1-2 day job. I also liked the thoroughness in inspecting the work that was done at the end both days, and especially the final day. Freddie and his crew were friendly and I enjoyed meeting them. Coming downstairs this morning to see clean windows felt a bit like Christmas! I recommend them enthusiastically!"

"Our project was actually a crawlspace encapsulation. We have a lake cabin that was built in the 1960's. It had a dirt floor in the crawlspace with bare block masonry foundation walls. It also had old, damp batt insulation that was falling down from the joist spaces. American Waterworks came in, removed the old insulation (a nasty job!), laid down a 2 layer moisture barrier system and spray foamed the foundation walls and rim joist area. I can't believe what a difference this has made to our air quality, much warmer floors. We used to have to wipe down the windows every morning during the winter because of condensation. Not any more! I would highly recommend this company if you have the same needs!!"
"They don?t finish the inside of the job, and our front yard is all torn up. The window itself is great, but wished they would have cleaned up after themselves."
There are many high-quality window companies on the market, although Andersen, Pella, and Marvin continue to be the most popular nationwide. Some brands, like Sunrise and Soft-Lite, are popular regionally but may not be available in all parts of the United States. When comparing brands, look for features like increased energy efficiency, strong and durable materials, and long-lasting and all-encompassing warranties.
You can add any type of window to a brick house, so long as the window has proper support. Windows with wider openings and windows in brick walls will need a lintel to support the extra weight above the window frame. A lintel is a support beam that distributes the weight from above evenly around the window.
Soundproof windows can’t completely block all noises, but they will significantly reduce sound from the road, sky, or your neighborhood’s weekend activities. Choose a soundproof window with an STC rating of at least 45 to block bass tones or loud conversations. Laminated glass windows can reduce noise by 75%. You can also add noise-reducing curtains to further muffle loud noises.
The biggest disadvantages of low-E windows have to do with cost and, depending on your personal taste, appearance. Low-E windows cost more than traditional windows—typically between $300 and $1,000 per window, plus installation costs. Though they can save you money in the long run, low-E windows have a hefty upfront price tag. Additionally, low-E windows have a slightly different look than traditional windows. While some people don’t notice it, others say the low-E coating gives windows a hazy look.
It is generally recommended to remove window screens for the winter, especially in climates with heavy snow, freezing rain, or frigid temperatures. Removing them helps prevent damage to the screen mesh and frames that can be caused by ice and moisture buildup between the screen and the window. Taking out the screens also allows more natural light and warmth into your home during shorter winter days and makes it easier to clean your windows thoroughly. In warmer climates where harsh weather is not a concern, the decision is more about personal preference; some homeowners prefer the clearer view, while others leave them in for convenience.
