Choosing the Right Window Replacement Contractor

Many homeowners use their hard-earned cash on home upgrades, particularly replacement windows. These are worthwhile investments that can help boost the home’s aesthetic appeal, security and energy efficiency. To enjoy their benefits, you must have them installed by a professional window replacement contractor.

However, with many of them in your area, how can you determine if you made the right selection? Look for the following characteristics.

Experience

When you review contractors, be sure to dig deeper into each company’s experience. How long have the companies been in business? What’s their reputation in the local community like? In addition to their years in the industry, you must also obtain client references, which is a list of names of their former clients that you can call and ask regarding their time working with the company on their window replacement projects. The references’ input will be vital in learning the level of expertise the company provides.

License and Insurance

Whether you are tackling roof repair, window replacement or any home improvement project, you must see to it that the company you’ll be hiring has the necessary licenses to operate its business in the area where you live. A trusted contractor should also have general liability and workers’ compensation insurance to protect you and your home, and give you peace of mind.

Comprehensive Estimates

When reviewing contractors, make sure to get estimates from them, and examine each one. Check for completeness and accuracy, including the items covered like the breakdown of materials and payment schedule. Ask if there are any hidden fees, such as cleanup and disposal fees, as well as any warranties to ensure your new windows are protected against installation and manufacturing errors.
