4 Questions to Ask a Window Contractor Before Signing Up

Do you need new windows for your home? Window installation can take a toll on your resources so you want to make sure you’re getting a contract with the right people. With every window company claiming that they’re the best in the business, how do you know which contract to sign?

4 Questions to Ask a Window Contractor Before Signing Up

Asking the Right Questions

There may be dozens of window companies near your area, but you can narrow down your list of options by asking the right questions before signing a contract. Here’s a quick rundown of the most important questions you should ask a contractor.

1. Are You Licensed?

A license is more than just a document saying a contractor can install windows: it is proof that the they have the necessary qualifications and that they meet the quality standards set by local regulations. Furthermore, most insurance companies only provide coverage if your windows are installed by licensed individuals. Signing a contract with an unlicensed contractor can be a huge financial liability if things go wrong.

2. What About Warranties?

There are times when even the most experienced contractors can botch a job. This is why it’s important to ask for a warranty. Warranties may vary depending on their brand; a set of casement windows from one brand may be covered by a manufacturer warranty while another one from a different brand may be covered only by a service warranty from the contractors.

3. Do You Have Your Own Crew?

Some window contractors will send their own crew to your house, while others will hire subcontractors to get the job done. It’s much easier to anticipate the quality of work done by an in-house crew because all the projects are done by the same people. At Renewal by Andersen® of Kansas City, we own the entire process from start to finish, ensuring that you will only ever need to speak with one expert for all your project’s concerns.

4. Do You Have References?

A solid portfolio and positive feedback are the hallmarks of a good replacement windows contractor. Before signing a contract, ask for recent referrals and ask the contractor’s previous clients for feedback about the quality of work. The more referrals you can get, the easier it is to set your expectations for the project.
