The right questions can get you the replacement windows that your home deserves. In today’s post, the home remodeling contractors at STL Design and Build share practical questions to ask a window replacement company before hiring one.
1. What are the window styles that you offer? Whether you already have a clear idea of what you want or are still trying to find the best style for your home, you have to know what the prospective window company has to offer. This will help you with your design decisions later as you narrow down your choices. In addition to window styles, ask the window contractor about options like insulated glass, custom windows or combining multiple windows together, also known as mulling.
2. How long will it take to replace my windows? Project timelines are affected by many factors, from the complexity of the project to the window replacement companies themselves. A good window replacement company should be able to give you a fairly accurate estimate of how long it will take to replace the windows in your home, including the lead time for ordering and crafting your windows.
3. Can you describe your replacement process? Window replacement can be done any time – even in the middle of winter – if done correctly. Ideally, your prospective window company should isolate the rooms the team is working in and remove windows one at a time. This helps keep heat loss to a minimum and reduce the risk of exposure to dust, pollen and other indoor air pollutants. This process also eliminates having to evacuate your home during the project.
4. Do you provide written quotes or estimates? A verbal quote or estimate is a red flag. Trustworthy contractors should always be ready to provide a copy of their quote or estimate in writing. With today’s technologies, it’s not difficult to draw a digital copy of these documents right after a consultation and a printed copy shortly after. Beware of contractors who apply pressure to get you to sign their quotes or contracts. You should be given ample time to review, revise and correct the document before you sign it.
