Window & Door Replacement

Consumer Information

There are some home improvements that are necessary, and some that are just for aesthetic reasons.  Window and door replacement is a project that can handle both.  Many homes are built with cheap, “builder grade” doors and windows that, if not updated, will drain the wallet over time due to lack of efficiency.  Nowadays, there are many upgrades available in both categories that make sense financially, as well as greatly improving the beauty of your home.
 
There are several major manufacturers offering a variety of window and door materials which include vinyl, wood, steel, and fiberglass, amongst others. Each will be suitable for different applications and lifestyles depending on personal preferences.  Talk with qualified installers to determine which products would be right for you.  Some materials, such as Low-E Glass, will provide better insulation than regular glass.  New windows or doors may provide substantial savings in the heating and cooling costs in your home, especially when replacing older single pane glass windows.
 
When hiring a contractor to perform window or door replacement in your home, verify both Workman’s Compensation and General Liability insurance prior to beginning any project.  The most thorough way to verify this insurance is to request a ‘certificate of insurance’ from the contractor.
