Reasons to Skip DIY Window Replacement

Choosing high-quality replacement windows in York, PA, is essential to improving your home’s curb appeal and comfort levels. That being said, a window’s quality is not the only thing that affects a window’s performance. The quality of installation is an equally important factor that homeowners should take into consideration. Renewal by Andersen® of Central Pennsylvania discusses why window replacements are best left to professionals.

Warranty Loss

A warranty ensures protection for your window for years in case of damage. Choosing to handle the window replacement yourself can lead to loss of warranty. Manufacturers require that the window be installed by a licensed professional for the warranty to be valid. In choosing to install a window yourself, it may not be properly sealed, making you lose money instead of saving it.

After-Project Mess

When you turn to Renewal by Andersen to replace your windows in York, PA, we ensure to clean up and dispose of all debris. During a DIY, you will be responsible for cleaning up and in finding a place to dispose of your old window. As these don’t fit in a regular trash can, disposing them is challenging. In addition, incorrectly removed windows can lead to broken glass, which creates a bigger mess.

Loss of Time

A window replacement does not happen within a minutes. A professional can take up to several hours to install just one window. A homeowner, with no experience or training, could take a whole day or stretch into a few days especially if it’s your first time.

Professionals possess the necessary tools, knowledge, and equipment for a proper installation. For DIY window replacements, on the other hand, it can be hard to find the appropriate tools. If you don’t have the luxury of time and want to ensure an expert and efficient installation, turn to Renewal by Andersen.
