Finding the right contractor is key to a successful window replacement project. After all, even the best replacement windows will not perform as designed if not installed properly. For inexperienced homeowners, looking for the right contractor takes a lot of work, and maybe even some trial and error along the way.
Let us help make your search easy. Consider the following when choosing a window replacement contractor.
Provides quality replacement windows – There are two kinds of replacement window contractors: one installs pre-built replacement windows while the other custom-builds replacement windows according to the size of your wall openings. The former can be problematic, as your existing wall openings will have to be modified to accommodate the new windows—not a good thing for historic homes or if you simply want to keep the original structure intact. At Renewal by Andersen®, we belong to the second kind, where we build the windows to size. Each window we build and install is a perfect fit, no matter how big or small your original wall openings.
Proper license and insurance – We can’t stress enough how important a window replacement contractor’s license is. With its stringent set of requirements, it’s your assurance the contractor is as legitimate as they claim to be. Insurance is another important element, and the contractor should at least have general liability insurance and workers’ compensation. Verify both with the state licensing board and insurance provider, respectively.
A skilled installation team – The installation team delivers on the promises made by the consultants and builders, so finding a contractor with a skilled installation team is a must. At Renewal by Andersen, we are proud to say that our team comprises the best installers in the area who have completed strict factory training and certification before they worked on their first project.
Superb warranty coverage – Replacement windows are long-term investments, so be sure to choose a contractor who offers warranty coverage for both materials and workmanship. Renewal by Andersen installations are covered by our transferable limited warranty, including featuring up to 20 years coverage on the Fibrex® material and glass and two years’ workmanship warranty, among other coverage. Warranties ensure the peace of mind to enjoy your windows for years to come.
