The usual ways homeowners compare replacement windows is to read online reviews or talk to others who have recently upgraded their home’s windows. At Renewal by Andersen of Long Island, we think a great way to compare companies and products is to consider what you’ll be giving up when you replace your windows. That’s right there are things you’ll never be able to do again once you replace your windows with energy efficient, low maintenance replacement windows. Don’t worry; most people don’t mind.
Here are five things you’ll never have to face when you choose to install high-performance, custom-built Renewal by Andersen replacement windows.
#1. You’ll Never Have that Moment of Panic When Your Utility Bill Arrives
If your existing windows aren’t efficiently sealing your home, you’re losing money – and probably paying too much to manage your home environment. Older windows don’t control heat and cold transfer effectively. And, gaps and cracks in and around the frame allow conditioned air to escape while letting outdoor air and moisture to come inside, raising your utility bills, winter and summer.
Replacing single-pane glass with our High-Performance Low-E glass gives you an opportunity to save hundreds of dollars each year on heating and cooling bills.
#2. You Never Have to Spend Hours Trying to Clean Windows That Just Won’t Come Clean
Our replacement windows aren’t only energy-efficient, they’re time-efficient, too. Most of our window styles – casements, awnings, double-hung and other operable styles – allow you to clean both interior and external window surfaces from inside your home – fewer steps on those back and forth treks and fewer trips up and down the ladder to clean windows installed on upper floors.
And what about that bothersome smudge? Innovative manufacturing processes and special coatings that reduce water spots mean you’re less likely to find stubborn streaks and smudges.
Even our grille options let you define your cleaning routine with options for removable interior strips that snap off easily and between-the-glass placement so you never have to clean around your decorative features.
#3. You’ll Never Have to Track Down an Installer Who Has Gone AWOL (perhaps, immediately after cashing your check)
After finalizing the sale, some replacement window companies give customers a list of local installation contractors, putting the responsibility for finding and vetting contractors on the homeowner’s shoulders. Others recommend specific contractors, but stop short of guaranteeing their services.
Renewal by Andersen works with our friends and neighbors throughout the decision-making journey, but we strive to build life-long relationships. That means we are close at hand to answer questions while you’re still researching companies and products and we’re there for you if something goes wrong six months, thirteen months, even years after the installation date.

Our prices include installation services, and all issues associated with installation are covered for twenty-four months from the installation date.
#4. You’ll Never Have to Devote Your Precious Spare Time to Scraping, Sanding & Repainting Your Window Frames
One of the tedious chores associated with homeownership is the annual scrape-and-paint routine. Living in a humid climate means you have to regularly inspect wood trim and window frames to prevent irreparable damage.
Renewal by Andersen of Long Island’s composite Fibrex frame is as strong as wood, but also resists cracking, chipping, peeling, flaking, mildew, rot, warping, and scratches better than anything else on the market, including vinyl. Long-lasting beauty, structural integrity and low-maintenance features mean you’ll have to find something else to do with the time you used to spend maintaining your windows.
#5. You’ll Never Have to Wonder If You Made the Right Decision
It’s one thing to have buyer’s remorse over that $200 pair of tie-dyed calfskin hip boots you bought online at 2:17 am; it’s another to regret a house full of windows.
