Avoid Window Replacement Scams With These Tips

As with most home improvement projects, a window replacement is an important investment. For it to be successful, you want to work with the pros who can provide you with both high-quality window units and reasonably priced installation.  When you are in the market for new or replacement windows, always consider working with a reputable company. Steer clear of those who offer cheap services, but perform substandard installation work. Here are tips to avoid window replacement scams.

Read Customer Reviews

When you stumble upon a home improvement company that offers window replacement, see to it that it has an entry in the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website. If so, take a look at its customer reviews and complaints. You’ll learn what the previous clients have to say about their experience working with the company. Should there be any complaints, check if it took initiative to resolve problems.

Secure Referrals

Whether you are tackling a window replacement or a roofing project, it’s always a good thing to obtain recommendations from friends, neighbors or colleagues. Ignore contractors who contact you out of the blue and offer a big discount for certain home improvement. Double-check their names by running a quick search through Google.

Make Sure to Get Everything in Writing

Many less-than-reputable contractors often ask for money upfront before they will start the work. It’s a red flag, so it’s best to ask them to put everything into writing. This includes the work agreement and the final estimate. Continue your search if one doesn’t provide you with such.
