    The Disadvantages of DIY Window Replacement

     

    With window replacement, skipping professional service is a common regret of many homeowners. The perceived benefits of DIYing the project quickly become a mirage after realizing the amount of expertise must one have to pull it off successfully.

    The Disadvantages of DIY Window Replacement

    Renewal by Andersen® shares the disadvantages of DIY work:

    Unsafe and Inefficient Work

    Removing and installing windows is no simple task. Glass units are both hefty and fragile; a single mistake could easily lead to an accident. If you buy off-the-shelf products, making them fit into the existing opening would most likely take up all of your time. What pros could finish in hours could take you an entire weekend.

    The beauty of choosing Renewal by Andersen of San Francisco for your window installation is the luxury of convenience and peace of mind. Our crew has the experience to complete more work in less time while observing safety from start to finish.

    Failed Job

    Every product has its own unique installation requirements. Missing one step can spell disaster. The danger in committing rookie mistakes is that you won’t know you made them until problems occur later on.

    Our Certified Master Installers live and breathe window installation. Nobody knows our products better than they do, which is why only they can guarantee flawless work the first time.

    False Savings

    Do-it-yourselfers love the idea of avoiding labor cost. The fault in that notion is that it assumes everything goes well from beginning to end. If it doesn’t, you might have to hire pros to correct your mistakes and spend more than you initially expect.

    No Workmanship Coverage

    Hiring experienced window installation professionals comes with a guarantee. You pay for labor, but, in return, you’ll get insurance against workmanship defects over a reasonable period. At Renewal by Andersen of San Francisco, our 5-year warranty on installation is a robust safety net for you.

    Leaving the heavy lifting to us gives you practical benefits you otherwise won’t get to enjoy if you take matters into your own hands. To talk about your project with no obligations, call us at (866) 609-5033 to schedule your free, in-home consultation in San Francisco, CA.
