POOR WINDOW INSTALLATION

Poor installation of windows can affect any property, old or new.  Not every company who installs windows takes the time to properly insure that the window is not only straight, but also water tight.  A couple of problem signs with windows may be, leakage, sashes which are too large for the frame, air leaks, and no warranty given after installation.  Poorly installed windows can not only result in water damage and mold, but also structural damage as they can leak for months prior to a home owner noticing any damage.  Doing your due diligence about the installer but also the window is time well spent.  Incorrectly installed windows can not only result in major interior damage, but also cost you money by having to take the window out and start from scratch with an entirely new window.   Look for Part 2 as we’ll post pictures showing some of the interior damage caused by poor window installation.

  1. ad an appointment for an estimate on 7/13/16. Salesman shows up on time and was a nice guy. I explained to him from the beginning, I am looking to get new siding as the old siding on my house is 60+ years old. I explained that I was ready to move on it if the price was right. I think this helped him to keep the presentation moving. Thankfully, the presentation and everything was only an hour, unlike some of the other horror stories I have read on here today.

    So the salesman gets done doing his measurements and presentation and is preparing to give me his number. He asked how I would be paying for it and I told him cash. He asked if I would be interested in 0% financing and I said possibly, but I would prefer to pay in cash. If I had to finance, it was likely too much. He presents me with a quote for $25,000!!!! Now I could understand this if I lived in a huge home with multiple levels. I live in a 750 sq ft 1 story home with a 2 car detached garage. Has this guy lost his freaking mind?!?!
