One of the most common mistakes homeowners make is hiring contractors who don’t have certification. Without it, you’re basically hiring blind: you have no guarantee that they’ll do quality work, let alone any assurance that they know what they’re doing. You’ll want to get it right the first time, so here are three things that make working with certified pros one of the best choices you’ll ever make for your home:
1. Window Parts Inspection
Some contractors show up at your house without performing window component reviews beforehand, causing many projects to go awry. Rest assured that we certified professionals at NEXT Door and Window don’t do things haphazardly. We make sure to review all window components before arriving at your house to avoid any mishaps on the day of the installation itself.
2. Pre-Finishing Service
Getting the right color or stain on your windows can be tough, especially without professional help. That’s why certified Downers Grove replacement windows contractors like us do the pre-finishing for you. This involves disassembling the windows (without doing any damage to your new units) and giving the components your chosen hue or shade. We can also pre-finish your new or existing interior trim to make it look the way you want it to.
3. Step-By-Step Process
If you get a regular handyman to put in your Downers Grove, IL replacement windows, you may not be getting the best work. Factory-certified contractors know that manufacturers are very particular about the way they want their products to be installed. We follow very strict guidelines during the entire replacement process to ensure everything is installed to specifications.
When NEXT Door & Window prepares a window area for installation, we first remove any damaged or rotting material. We also clean up mildew or algae growth to restore the old window area’s look. Once the replacements have actually been fitted into the opening, we apply rubber membrane and sealants to the newly installed units for a precise seal. This will help protect your interiors from damage caused by the elements.
