The new windows can do wonders for your home’s aesthetics, energy efficiency and value. Although the idea of replacing windows can create high levels of anxiety and stress, with a reputable window replacement company it is a task that can be performed easily and without any stress. From the first contact of the windows contractor throughout the project to take post-construction follow-up, that is what to expect when you choose to work with a reliable company for your new windows installation project.
First Visit and Interpretation
The process starts with an initial consultation, which can be held either in person or virtually. A representative from the window replacement company will take a look at your current windows, talk with you about what you are hoping to accomplish, and help you pick out the best features for your house. You’ll be inquired about your priorities — improving insulation, increasing curb appeal, cutting noise or all of the above?
The company will take accurate measurements to determine the right fit, and will offer an estimate that is based on your window interests, frame materials, and installation needs. It’s also the best time to inquire about warranty coverage, energy efficiency ratings and installation timelines.
Personalised Proposal and Product Selection
Then the window replacement company will give you a custom quote. This includes breakdowns on pricing, material availability, window styles and timing. Your options for windows include double-hung, casement, sliding, bay, and specialty windows and will depend on your needs and budget.
A lot of companies have energy-efficient models, low-E glass and come in several finishes to coordinate with your home. A good replacement window company will explain the pros and cons of each type and offer you valuable advice, but without any pressure.
Scheduling and Preparation
Once the contract is signed and windows are chosen, the next step is scheduling the installation. The company orders your custom windows, and it may take a couple of weeks for them to be manufactured and delivered to your company for installation. Meanwhile they will offer you direction over how to get your home ready for installation — that might mean taking your window coverings down, clearing a furniture set, and pets as well.
Others may conduct a pre-installation assessment, which will verify measurements and confirm installation logistics. This extra step will avoid any surprises when the time comes to install.
Professional Installation
Once your windows have been delivered, the installation team will stop by your house to perform the installation. Highly trained installers from the window replacement company on the other hand will take out the old windows meticulously, cleanup the mess, and install the new ones perfectly. They’ll fix the windows right with proper sealing and insulation to optimize both energy efficiency and performance.
Most installations take one to two days at most, depending on how many windows you’re getting installed. Your crew will also tidy up the work area and remove the old windows from your home.
Final Preview and Satisfaction Assurance
Upon installation, we perform a final walk through to make sure everything has been installed to your liking. The window replacement company will walk you through how to use and care for your new windows and discuss warranty information, as well. It is an important step to verify quality and answer any remaining issues.
With the right partner, the entire process is seamless though, from consultation to finished project, leaving you the comfort of knowing your investment is secure and your peace of mind intact for years to come.
