3 Mistakes an Expert Window Installer Doesn’t Make

Ensuring success during your window installation goes beyond choosing the best framing material and glass. You also have to take into account the company installing your replacement windows. In the Harrisburg area, the one name you can trust is Renewal by Andersen® of Central Pennsylvania. Many homeowners have called on us to handle their window installation, and we have never let them down because we don’t make these amateur mistakes:

1. Incorrect Window Sizing

Unlike amateur window installers, we don’t pick standard sizes for replacement windows. We always consider rough opening requirements and custom design your new windows based on precise measurements. These are done to ensure the new units will create a proper, seamless fit into the rough openings.

2. Non-Compliance with Specific Installation Requirements

Each window manufacturer has its own unique requirements about its product’s installation. These should be strictly adhered to, not only so the work can meet the manufacturer’s standards, but also to avoid nullifying the warranties included with your new windows. This will never be an issue with Renewal by Andersen of Central Pennsylvania. We make sure that all window installation requirements are followed to the T. This means you can expect no shortcuts or errors when you choose us for your project – just superior workmanship backed by extensive training and experience.

3. Improper Use of Spray Foam

Insulating foam is used around your new windows to keep them airtight and to boost their energy efficiency. But inexperienced installers tend to go overboard with its use. We’ll, on the other hand, make sure our special insulating foam is used responsibly because we know that dispensing too much can distort window frames and bow jambs.
