MORE INSIGHTS INTO THE INSTALLATION PROCESS
There are 7 main steps to Installing Impact Windows
1. Assessment and Measurements: An expert installer will start by assessing your property and taking precise measurements of the window openings. This step ensures that the impact windows are custom-made to fit your specific requirements.
2. Removal of Existing Windows: If you have existing windows, the installer will carefully remove them, taking care not to damage the surrounding structure.
3. Preparation of Window Opening: The window opening will be thoroughly inspected and prepared for the installation. This may involve ensuring proper weatherproofing, reinforcing the surrounding frame if necessary, and addressing any structural concerns.
4. Installation of Impact Window Frame: The impact window frame, including the sashes, will be securely installed into the prepared opening. This step requires precise alignment and proper attachment to ensure a tight fit.
5. Insertion of Laminated Glass: The installer will then carefully insert the laminated glass panels into the frame. These glass panels are typically heavy and require proper handling and alignment to ensure a secure and accurate fit.
6. Sealing and Insulation: To ensure optimal performance, the installer will properly seal and insulate the impact windows. This step helps prevent air and water infiltration, ensuring energy efficiency and protection against the elements.
7. Testing and Adjustments: Once the installation is complete, the expert installer will conduct thorough testing to ensure proper functionality and performance of the impact windows. This may involve checking for smooth operation, verifying the integrity of the seal, and ensuring that the windows meet industry standards and local building codes.

The window ordering and install process went very well. Pony did a great job of orchestrating the install date despite having a very narrow install window to work with. Kept me informed of progress. Andrew was my install leader and did a superb job. He was on top of the install at all times. Worked problems as they arose and came up with creative solutions to keep the project moving. Andrew made sure the job site was cleaned up at the end of each day, worked around my schedule, and took a personal interest in making sure the job was done right. I love the windows. They look great and I feel safer with them installed. I would definitely recommend this company and Andrew, in particular. Thanks for a great job guys!
