4 Tips on Planning a Stress-Free Window Replacement

If you’re planning to invest in newer, better windows this season but haven’t prepared your home yet, then this is the best time. With careful planning, you can make this home improvement as smooth and worry-free as possible.

Let Bee Window®, your premier contractor for quality Anderson vinyl replacement windows, help you get started on your preparation with these easy-breezy tips.

1. Strip your current windows. Before your window installer arrives, be sure to remove your existing unit’s window treatments. Clear the sills and ledges of plants, glass ornaments, and other decorative items that might hamper access to your windows.

2. Clear space and designate access. Consult your window contractor on how much space they’ll need to do their work. Move furniture and breakables elsewhere and remove items, like paintings and light fixtures, from the wall near the work area. It’s also likely that your window installers will use ladders to access your units from the outside so place gardening equipment, potted plants, and other items someplace else in the meantime. Additionally, you should inform your contractor which doors they can use to enter and exit your home. This keeps things more convenient.

3. Ask your window contractor about after-installation cleanup. Window replacement doesn’t stop at installing your bay replacement window in Kokomo. You should also consult your contractor about the workspace cleanup and disposal of your old windows. You might have to store your old units in your property until they can safely dispose of it. Ask your contractor how to store these old windows and when they’ll be taken away. Practicing safety measures is also essential. It’s better to keep young children and pets away from the installers and work area.

4. Double check the paperwork. Be sure to check the paperwork that comes with your replacement windows. If you chose ENERGY STAR qualified windows, for instance, you should make sure that the labels are there. Examine the windows for damage, like weakened seals and cracked glass. In addition, you should also save the warranty information and individual window labels of your archtop replacement window in Muncie and keep it in a secure place.
