Impact Windows for Houston Homeowners

Aluminum vs Vinyl Windows for Texas Homes

Aluminum and vinyl are not two prices for the same window. They are two systems that age differently, and the right one changes with the opening, the elevation and the part of Houston you live in.

Window Repair vs Replacement in a Houston Home

Not every failing window needs replacing. The answer usually depends on which of three things has failed: the hardware, the sealed glass unit, or the frame itself.

Something Is Wrong With a Window

These four answer the questions people ask before they know whether they need a repair trade or a manufacturer. We would rather send you to the cheaper right answer than sell you a window your house did not need. Start with repair versus replacement, then the symptom you actually have: fogged glass, drafts and the electricity bill, street noise, or a patio door that will not slide.

Doing Some of It Yourself

You do not have to hand over the whole job. Measure your own windows and doors is how we measure, written out: three-point widths and heights, diagonals, the depth people forget, and the four photos to send. It also says which openings are a reasonable do-it-yourself job and which are not, and it lets you pick how much of the work you want to keep.
