4 Common Window Installation Mistakes

Even the smallest installation mistake can undermine the quality and performance of your new windows. Renewal by Andersen® of Kentucky, a leading window installation company in the area, recommends avoiding these common window replacement mistakes.

Choosing the Wrong Window Style

Consider your home’s overall design when choosing a window style. Remember: your windows are highly noticeable features of your home, so you need to invest in units that complement both the interior and exterior of your home.

Renewal by Andersen installs a wide variety of window styles, which you can customize to fit your requirements and aesthetic goals. We bring your dream casement windows to life and custom-design them to perfectly fit your home's existing window openings.

Prioritizing Price Above Quality

Cost is always a concern, but be careful not to prioritize the price tag of a window over the quality. Keep in mind that low-quality windows may have a lower price tag, but will likely require more frequent maintenance and repairs, and won't last as long as higher-quality windows. You save money in the long-run by paying a little more for a higher-quality product.

DIY Window Replacement

Window replacement requires skill and experience. Attempting to install your new windows on your own is a risky endeavor. Being even slightly off with your measurements can result in leaky, drafty windows. It's always smarter to entrust this job to trusted professionals.

Failing to Screen Your Window Contractor

Instead of working with amateur window installers to save money, turn to a licensed company with a proven reputation. Never entrust your window replacement project to a shady company that lacks credentials.
