Many projects fail due to poor installation workmanship. A window replacement becomes even more disruptive and stressful because the contractor is hard to deal with. As with other home improvement projects, the San Francisco window contractor that you hire will help determine the success of your home upgrade. In an industry with no shortage of companies to choose from, how do know you’ve found the right one? To tell the good from the bad, ask these key pointers:
Who Needs to Obtain the Required Permit?
In San Francisco, a permit is necessary when adding or replacing windows. Normally, the contractor is the one who’d take care of the paperwork. At Renewal by Andersen® of San Francisco, we’ll pull the permit you need for the project. Apart from sparing you the trouble, we want to use our familiarity with the process to obtain the essential paperwork with no fuss. This way, we can stay away from avoidable delays and get your project started immediately.
Do You Subcontract Work?
Some companies only manufacture the windows and entrust the installation to another party. In this situation, you wouldn’t know how reliable and trustworthy the latter is, increasing the risk of paying for a botched job. We’re one of the few San Francisco window companies that does everything from start to finish. We do the sales, manufacturing, installation, and servicing. In case of defects, we’ll take full accountability for the issue. We guarantee that you wouldn’t be left in the dark if your window fails while they are under the warranty period.
What Safety Precautions Do You Take?
Occupational safety matters. It’s your job to know what your prospective contractor does to minimize the chances of accident before accepting them to your home. One of our ways to prevent on-site mishaps is our Certified Master Installer program. Only technically proficient installers can pass the program’s strict certification process. With Certified Master Installers, you can rest assured that our crew has proper training and equipment to carry out your project safely and efficiently.
