If you’re looking to replace your windows, you’re likely concerned first and foremost about cost. After all, new windows aren’t exactly cheap, but they are an excellent investment. Plus, they can be done affordably if you choose the right provider. You understandably want to budget for this project as well as you can. That involves getting a few estimates from a few different technicians so you can compare.
A window estimate is usually free of charge. It doesn’t just involve a flat cost; rather, you’ll probably get costs for a few different options, depending on what you’re looking for, as well as general timelines for completion and an outline of the installation process.
Here are a few things that should be included in your estimate:
- Base cost of materials
- Upgrades and options (materials, sizes, shapes, colors, hardware and finishes)
- Labor
- Timeline for beginning and completion
- Contact information for point person within the company
Generally, windows plus installation equals cost. However, your final cost will vary by the quality of window you choose (including glass and frame), options, selected upgrades and labor. It’s important to note that all estimates should include an in-person visit for measurements. There’s only so much a technician can quote you over the phone. Without actual measurements, the estimate won’t be very accurate.
What to Expect
As part of your free initial consultation with us, you will be meeting with a Rescom window consultant to review window options, styles, glass, and finishes. We will then come up with a detailed specification sheet for you to peruse. Once you authorize your contract agreement, we schedule a measurement visit. This helps us custom make each window for the best fit, submitting your measurements and specifications to the Bristol window factory.
This process takes about three weeks, for standard sizes. This may take a bit longer if you order specialty or custom sizes. We’ll call you up when the windows are ready and schedule an installation date. Our team will perform the install and provide a complete cleanup, followed by a final check from our team leader, who will go over the operation and care of your new windows.
