Yes! Our in-home consultations are always free. Give us a call to schedule your free in-home consultation.
By making an appointment there will be several qualifying questions that are asked about the home itself. On the day of your in-home estimate, the routine of events differs with each salesman.
In no particular order, you should expect preliminary measurements of the current windows/openings to bid, and an analysis of each opening (are there blinds, shutters, depths of current windows, security bars, etc.).
We will then assist you in choosing different product options and details such as colors, materials, and features. Based on what type of structured home, some options may need more work to achieve installation.
You will receive a price in-home, or we will email you at a later time with a price along with the timeframe and expectations.
If further follow-up or requests for callbacks are arranged, then the salesperson would notate as such.
Windows
A lot of varied factors lead to this. It can often depend on what you want. For the Tucson and Phoenix environment, fiberglass is, hands down, the best material for Arizona, but it has a higher price point.
While most states have phased out aluminum, Arizona remains a huge home for thermally improved aluminum that will still pass building and replacement codes.
Vinyl usually has the best energy efficiency for windows and is the most economical for any type of home structure.
With a wide number of factors to be considered, reach out to the Weathersby team to help you navigate your upcoming window or door replacement. Our expert team will take into consideration your home structure, colors, and materials, and help you decide which product will best fit your home.
There are many factors that can affect the completion time for a replacement.
Based on material. aluminum takes the longest, anywhere from three to six months to ship to our warehouse. Fiberglass is about six to eight weeks on average, and vinyl four to six weeks.
Depending on how many units are being installed: 3-6 units take about one day.
If re-stucco is needed it will be a few more days depending on how many openings.
Everyone is different when prioritizing home improvement needs. If the existing units are single pane (which are particularly old) they should be replaced.
Single pane windows are not very energy inefficient, not strong, and allow lots of outside noise into your home. If there are signs of seal failure, we suggest placing it toward the top of the list.
If your windows are older than 15 years, they could also be out of warranty.
Many customers replace windows because they are old or are not energy efficient.
Window replacement can also update the look of your home.
With energy-efficient windows, you will have a much more comfortable home.
While we cannot pinpoint exactly how much your energy bills will decrease, since there are many factors that contribute to or against, (i.e., the orientation of the sun that the home faces, how many windows, more than one floor, etc.), they will improve.
Many of our customers have noticed improved temperature regulations in their rooms and homes.
With the latest change in building/ replacement code in 2018, Getting up-to-date units ensures that you have the best protection and the most economical windows that complement your home.
While this usually indicates window seal failure, but it does not mean that the window has failed
yet.
Condensation is a byproduct of temperature differentials. So fog, or distortion of the glass
(if it looks dirty despite being cleaned) can be indicators.
However, it would be wise to consider getting the windows replaced. Our sales staff can advise you
on your situation.
There could be debris build-up. In Arizona, dust and dirt can settle in the tracks of venting
windows. Regular maintenance will help with this issue. An air compressor or blower of some sort helps a lot.
Another common issue is when the locks stop working or latching correctly. With units older than 20 years, time will eventually have this effect on the windows.
A pocket replacement, also known as a jump-frame, step-up, or retro-fit, is a technique mostly for stucco homes to not disrupt the stucco utilized with the window being built a tad smaller than the existing unit.
Casing is usually referred to as interior trim, while "trim" is usually considered external, but they can be used interchangeably, just specify interior or exterior.
While we do not do the application, there are windows available with tinted glass.
This shouldn't be confused with the Low-E coating, which improves energy efficiency and has a light greenish tint (some vendors have a bluish one).
Certain after-market tints may not pass building and replacement codes.
If you're looking for the privacy of tint, it can be ordered with the building of the window or door.
Tinting usually does not pass code on solar heat gain coefficient, unless it is a very thick pane of glass that is
much more expensive and very dark
