In most cases, installation will involve the following four steps.
- Preparation
- Getting the New Windows in Place
- Insulating and Sealing the Windows
- Cleaning Up After the Installation
The first step is for our installers to get everything prepped. This includes placing drop cloths around the areas will be working in. This helps to catch any debris that can occur. We will take additional steps as necessary to protect your home. Then we will remove your old windows carefully and safely.
Once the old windows have been safely removed, we will clean up the opening thoroughly. When it is done, we will put your new windows in place.
When the window is in place, the next step is for the installers to insulate and seal the frame in it is place. This may be the most important step of the entire window installation process. Remember that the way the window is installed and insulated will greatly affect how energy efficient it is.
Just because the windows have been installed does not mean we are done with our job. The final step is cleanup. Our technicians will get rid of your old windows. If there is debris that was not caught by the drop cloths, they will take care of it. Our goal is to leave your home in the condition it was when we came – or better.
How to Prepare for the Day of Installation
There are some steps you can take that will help speed up the process of us getting your windows installed. First and foremost, remove any blinds or curtains on your windows. If there are items around your windows, such as couches, dressers, etc., then move that out of the way. Likewise, if there is furniture or other objects near the access door, do your best to clear this away so that they can easily access your home.
