Renewal by Andersen of San Francisco

 

There are things about window replacement that experts want you to know, and it’s important to know them before starting the job. Renewal by Andersen® of San Francisco, a company specializing in replacement windows in San Francisco and its surrounding areas, has listed down five important things that you should know when having your windows replaced:

  1. Like other components of your home, windows tend to deteriorate over time with constant exposure to the elements. Check your units for the following issues: rotting and mold and mildew growth on window sills, fogging in glass, damaged or bent hinges, and issues with hardware and other parts that are hard to find. If any of these issues are present, have a professional window contractor replace your windows immediately.
  2. Replacement windows these days come equipped with energy-efficient features. For example, our windows are made of the composite framing material Fibrex®, which keeps the units properly sealed. This innovative composite is also more sustainable compared with other materials as it is made from 40% partially reclaimed wood fiber and 60% partially reclaimed thermoplastic polymer. Replacing your existing windows with energy-efficient units can help you save on expenses down the line.
  3. Replacements can also work wonders for any room in terms of aesthetics. We offer various window styles to suit your interiors as well as your personal taste. You can choose from sliding, picture, bow and bay, casement, specialty, and single- and double-hung windows.
  4. Always remember that it’s safer to call in a professional rather than doing the job yourself. DIY attempts might lead to greater damage and higher costs. A professional window contractor has years of experience and extensive knowledge when it comes to these matters, so it’s always better to have them perform the job.
  5. Always remember to ask for a quote. You have the freedom to choose, so asking for a quote is always a good idea. Learning more about this kind of stuff can also help you save money on window replacements.
