I have been a replacement window contractor for over 18 years.  I can’t believe it but it is true. I started out learning about windows in the 1980’s the first company I worked for was a vinyl window company located in the western suburbs of Illinois Replacement windows is in high demand at that time and there were not too many window companies.

We sold replacement windows Mount Prospect area where there were lots of window problems. The type of replacement windows sold were a beefy vinyl window that was all welded at the corners. This was the state of the art at that time but now most vinyl windows are all welded instead of screwed together.

I have seen the replacement window industry evolve for the consumers benefit. The homeowner has more choices than ever and as a result has the best opportunity to get the best value. They can choose from wood windows, vinyl windows and composite windows which is the newest product on the market. In Buffalo Grove replacement windows popularity is mostly vinyl windows which give the most bang for the buck. So take it from an old timer who has been around choosing your investment wisely and shop around for both quality and price.
