When it comes to buying windows, you have lots of choices. But really you can make this easier on yourself by narrowing your selection down to three top factors. Consider the window manufacturer’s reputation. Do they have a history of producing high-quality products? A second thing to examine, the warranty coverage for the window and the work installing it. Finally, closely analyze both the experience of the glass company installing your windows, and research what customers say about their work. For instance, do they do reliable, high-quality and affordable window replacements.
Window Manufacturers’ Reputation

The best manufacturers use higher quality materials increasing durability, enhancing performance and looking more attractive. Over the long run this will save you money.

At Lee’s Glass & Window Works, we only partner with top-notch manufacturers, such as Florida-based PGT, Shwinco in Dothan, Ala., and CGI, a Florida company.
Warranty Provided on Windows and Installation
Not only should you choose a reputable manufacturer, but check the warranty carefully. How long is it? Does it cover labor? How about broken glass? Will they replace worn out parts? Remember, even the best windows can break. A quality warranty covers a defective window and the labor to replace it. Remember, even the best windows can break. Be sure to ask questions about a window’s warranty before buying it.
