One of your first considerations when doing such a project such as window replacement is to consider the time of year in which to begin.
One of your first considerations when doing such a project is to consider the time of year in which to begin. Many people will start once spring has arrived, leading into summer, so that they have clear and warm days to work. To prevent getting cold at night, choosing a warmer time of the year to work is the best choice. If you live in a climate zone or a latitude that provides year-round good weather, you won’t have to worry about this issue before starting.
Triple pane windows will give you the best insulating value, but their initial costs will also be more. The type of windows you will want, will be determined to some extent, by the region of the country you live. If you live in a mild climate, you may not have to worry too much about this so you can focus more on the appearance and durability of the windows. If you’re going to have a contractor or window replacement company do the job for you, it’s a good idea to get several estimates before making your choice.
If you’re going to hire someone to replace your windows, it’s important to know what questions to ask them. Many companies aren’t above doing underhanded things to get a job, such as replacing windows, so don’t jump to taking a bid without checking it out first.
When you get an estimate, make sure that you get everything down in writing just what the bid includes. It is easy to be mistaken about what a bid includes, sometimes it is simply miscommunication, but sometimes things are missed on purpose to charge more money. An honest company will give a warranty for their work, but you still should get it in writing. It is always good to have everything written down, because it protects both sides.

When you make comparisons, you should consider the warranties they offer and the relative quality of their products, so you’re not comparing apples with oranges.
