Replacing windows in a Massachusets home can be a lengthy process especially if you are just starting out. I mean there are so many things to do in order to be sure that in the end you get the right window, from the right supplier and at just about the right price. I have seen a lot of beginners get scammed by unscrupulous sales rep and I certainly don’t want that to happen to you.
Let me walk you though some of the most pertinent details. I will also provide you with some examples and ideas on how to replace your windows in your Massachusetts home.
Finding the right replacement window brand
Right now I can list up to 1000 window brands i.e. local, national and even international brands. One of the best brands to try for your Massachusetts home is Harvey. Harvey windows are local to Massachusetts and have the following features:
- Standard integral handle on top sash
- Attractive, low profile locks
- Streamlined bottom sash with optional lift handles
- Anti-theft ventilation limit latches for security while ventilating
- Dual action low profile sash lock with integrated tilt/wash feature eliminates the need for separate tilt latches
- Standard Double Low-E/Argon glass package which exceeds ENERGY STAR® qualifications
- PPG’s SunClean™easy-cleaning glass coating uses UV rays to slowly break down and loosen organic dirt on glass surface, making rinsing more efficient with minimal spotting and streaking
- Contoured sash and glazing bead provide a sleek, sophisticated design that emulates the traditional lines of a well-crafted wood window
Find the supplier or contractor
Now I am sure that you have probably convinced yourself about DIY. Whilst I am not for that idea, I will not try and change your mind about it. I will tell you to make sure that if you decide to DIY then you need to find a supplier that carries the best brand for your house. For example, storm windows, if you have a Stucco house, wood house etc.
I love hiring a window replacement contractor because I know that when replacing windows in a home only they can know the exact requirements based on their inspection of the house, the requirements as per the “state” requirements on home building and installation.
