Many homeowners believe that they can save some money and install windows on their own. When it comes to do-it-yourself projects, however, there are times when it is best to leave the work up to the professionals and save a lot of time, expense and added unnecessary grief. Hiring a window replacement company is an investment you’ll be glad that you made.
Of course, any homeowner with patience and the ability to follow directions can remove a window and install a new one. However, the first problem with doing such a project yourself is that unless you happen to be a professional window installer who works for a window replacement company, you really don’t necessarily know what you are doing.
One huge advantage to hiring a window replacement company to install your windows is that if they make a mistake, big or little, it’s on their dime, not yours. Imagine buying windows for your window replacement, then getting home and dropping one as you lift it. You are then out a great deal of money for the window that you purchased with nothing to fall back on. Now, imagine a worker from the window replacement company dropping a window at your home when he or she goes to install it. The company will cover the expense of replacing that shattered window, not you. If you do it yourself then there is no recourse.
Chances of the workers at the window replacement company making mistakes are also much smaller than chances of you making mistakes. After all, the professionals who work at the window replacement company are just that: professionals. They install windows every day and understand the ins and outs of installation and the types of windows and what is needed in order to conduct a proper install. You do not install windows every day and cannot be expected to have this sort of knowledge about the job you are doing. They, however, do, and bring it to work with them every day.
Window replacement companies generally guarantee their work. This means that if your windows start to malfunction or if the install had an issue, it’s on the company’s dime, not yours, to get it fixed. Many window companies will not honor a guarantee on windows that the homeowner installs himself because the installation is quite possibly a liability to the structural integrity of the window itself. The homeowner who hires a window replacement company to install his or her windows is making a wise choice on a big investment and will reap the rewards for years to come.
