"The GC, Don came out to give the estimate. He was knalagble and have a detailed list of what was going to be done and how long it would take. The estimate came in half of what the others 3 companies, I'm not sure if this was done on purpose to get the job or not. There was an issue with the old paint that was on the walls prior to starting the job. Don found a solution to fix it for the new paint that was going on over the old paint. This fix was part of the ariganal estimate. The work started on time with Melbin. Melbin had a hard time following the work listed on the estimate. He tried adding thing to the work that was called out for. He also went to the pait store to find out how to deal with the paint issue when that was already addressed. The store associated came up with a different solution that would cost me more for the work. Melbin called Don and Don called me to let me know it would cost me almost as much as the ariganal estimate. Work was stopped for less than half a day."

Our company does retrofit window replacement. We have been in business since 1990.We have a 5 star rating and thousands of satisfied customers. NO SALESMEN! You'll deal directly with me the owner. You'll get a better product for less money. With windows it's all about heat loss and they measure that with what they call a U-Factor, the lower the number the better. Being a PUD approved contractor they require a U-Factor of .30. We can get that number down to a .21 for open windows and .18 for non opening windows. A third better but does not cost a third more. And if you live where there is a lot of noise it will almost eliminate it coming through the windows!
"Mike Smith is a very nice and with rich experience guy. He gave me a lot of good advice. His workers worked professionally and cleaned up all the work areas. I am very satisfied with the job. And I will refer him to my friends."

Wooden replacement windows have an impressive lifespan, typically lasting up to 45 years or more with proper maintenance. Regular care, including painting or staining every few years and prompt repairs of any moisture issues, will maximize their durability. Wood windows outlast vinyl alternatives, which need replacement after 20 to 30 years. The specific wood species and local climate conditions also influence longevity, with hardwoods and moderate climates offering the best performance.
Wooden windows generally provide better natural insulation than vinyl windows, though the difference depends largely on the overall window construction. Wood offers superior thermal resistance properties, helping maintain indoor temperatures more effectively. However, modern vinyl windows with quality weatherstripping and multi-pane glass can perform comparably. The most significant energy efficiency factors include proper installation, glass type (double or triple-pane), gas fills between panes, and weatherstripping quality—regardless of frame material.
Wooden windows require regular upkeep to maintain their beauty and functionality. You'll need to inspect them annually for signs of moisture damage, peeling finish, or deteriorating seals. Typically, exterior surfaces need repainting or restaining every three to five years, depending on sun exposure and weather conditions. Interior surfaces generally require less frequent treatment. Additionally, hardware may need occasional lubrication, and weatherstripping should be replaced when showing signs of wear to maintain energy efficiency.
For a standard wooden window installation, professional contractors typically require about two to four hours per window. This timeframe includes removing the existing window, preparing the opening, installing the new unit, and ensuring proper sealing and finishing. Factors that can extend this timeline include discovering hidden structural issues, complex trim work, or challenging access points. For most homes with multiple window replacements, the entire project might span one to three days depending on the number of windows.
Replacing a single wooden window is entirely feasible and makes perfect sense when only one window shows damage or deterioration. However, if multiple windows are aging or showing similar wear patterns, a complete replacement often proves more economical in the long run. Window contractors typically offer better per-unit pricing for multiple installations, and replacing all windows simultaneously ensures consistent appearance, energy performance, and warranty coverage. Consider your budget, the condition of remaining windows, and your long-term plans for the property.
