Window Transformation in Andover, MA

Posted by admin on April 9, 2018

Recently, our team had finished up a beautiful window transformation of a home on the North Shore of Massachusetts, in the Heart of New England. The contractors did a gorgeous job of utilizing their specialty skills to install these shining, bright windows to the exterior & interior of the home.

What Kind of Window?

The contractors on the job installed two different styles of the window, the Harvey Building Products Majesty Windows, and Pella Architect Windows. Both of these products were created with the utmost of craftsmanship, and with the most high-quality products on the market.

Harvey Building Products has an amazing track record, as they have been selling replacement windows, alongside other elements of a home, such as doors, since 1960. We entrusted this brand of windows for many reasons. While they serve both homeowners and contractors, such as ourselves, they provide a consistency that is hard to beat. With over 50 years of experience, Harvey BP was the perfect person for the job, and they really did the incredible job that we had expected.

Pella, on the other hand, has a similar experience with replacement windows, as they have been working in the window manufacturing field since as far back as the early 1950’s. This almost 75 years’ worth of experience is crucial to the process and makes for the most excellent, high-quality items that you can install in your home.

Why Get New Windows?

Aesthetic

This style window really adds something, whether it is added to the front or back of a home, as having more views of the beautiful landscaping from the inside looks great. From the exterior of the home, bay windows really give an additional curb appeal unlike any other.

Comfortability

These are the perfect products to use in New England, as there are harsh winters and hot/humid summers. This makes for the perfectly comfortable, secure and energy efficient window. While a window is supposed to keep out the cold in the winter and keep the cold in, in the summer, these windows help by creating a true barrier between your home and the outside. This can help to cut down on many costs, including heat, AC, and energy.

Weatherproof

Making sure that your door is weatherproofed is important, especially if you live in the New England area. A door that is not weatherproofed will have the look of wear and tear after a few months, leaving you to consistently fix-up and clean a door, providing it with more care than necessary.

How Long Does Vinyl Siding Last?

Posted by admin on March 2, 2018

Vinyl siding has found its way into much popularity in the past few years, and for good reason. With its toughness acting as a primary advantage, vinyl siding is one of the most durable materials you can use for siding on your home, especially in areas where the weather has a huge effect on items such as this. In New England and Massachusetts, in particular, we have seen the weather take some violent turns this season, such as when the weather can go from being very warm to snow within a few hours.

Longevity of Vinyl Siding

Due to the way that it is made, vinyl is one of the siding materials which is the most resistant to almost all elements. These include the following:

Heat
Cold
Moisture
Winds lower than 110 mph

With the look of wood siding, vinyl provides all the important benefits that wood cannot, without any of the maintenance required.

Maintenance & Life Span

The maintenance can be a huge pain when you get sidings, such as wood siding, or cedar, or fiber cement. Having to constantly clean that amount of surface area can be very difficult. With vinyl siding there is little to no maintenance, the material never needs to be painted and it can maintain a fresh and new look with one wash a year.

Warranties can vary depending on the manufacturer, as well as the thickness of the vinyl siding. These warranties typically run 20-40 years, but some manufacturers have been making vinyl siding with a lifetime guarantee, which can be transferred to the next owner of the home.

In a short answer: Vinyl siding can last you a very long time, which can range from 20 years, all the way through a lifetime.
