Let Us Suggest . . .
Once you
have begun shopping for replacement windows, you may find
yourself taken back by the many options available. Should
I select fiberglass, wood or vinyl? Do I need single or double
hung? Would a bay window augment the appearance of my home?
With all those considerations, one important point must be
considered.
What window manufacturer will provide the best quality and
service?
Points to Consider:
Certified
Products
- Don't
be intimidated! Feel at liberty to check out the various
offerings first hand, by perusing showrooms locally. Find
out if the window is 'user friendly'. Does it open with
ease? Will it be difficult to clean? It is imperative that
you ask these questions early on, before scheduling an installation.
After all, you wouldn't buy a new car without first taking
it for a test drive.
- Look
for certification information from the National Fenestration
Rating Council (NFRC) for any products you are interested
in. Using this service will assist you in comparing the
energy efficiency of each brand and style of window.
- You
should never feel you are asking too many questions! How
many years has the company been operating? Who are the contractors
they work with regularly? Can referrals be provided? The
more you learn the more comfortable you can feel about your
decision.
Consumer
Service
- There
is little that is more disheartening than poor consumer
service. Particularly when you need to personally speak
to a company representative, rather than attempting to find
your way through a voice mail maze. So be your own investigator
and make a call or two before you buy! Find out if the staff
members are polite, useful and quick to respond?
- You
might also want to research:

Location

Company's Repair Policy
Number of Consumer Service Representatives
|
Warranty
- You
will find that every company offers their own particular
window warranty. Ask to see the actual warranty. Often times,
it is available for you to print from the company's website;
however, you should be able to request a copy by phone as
well. Warranty details should be cheerfully supplied if
the company is reputable.
- Before
making your purchase, be sure you understand all the details.
Ask the representative about anything that seems unclear.
