    Window Installation Blunders Professionals Avoid Doing

    When you work with Renewal by Andersen® of San Francisco, you are assured of superior workmanship and products. It’s our commitment to deliver stress-free and affordable windows that you can depend on for many years.

    When you hire us, we ensure a hassle-free installation, which avoids mistakes and blunders, including:

    1. Improper Flashing Installation 

    We make sure to brush away dust and debris, and wipe off moisture from window sills to improve the adherence of flashing tapes and membranes. We understand which materials are needed for the job and the proper installation procedures. Depending on the usual weather of your local area, we’ll also add primers to maximize the adherence when we install the flashing.

    2. Not Following Procedures

    Our team of experts make sure to always follow the specific guidelines given by the manufacturer of your replacement windows. While most windows share similar installation processes, they’ll still have unique requirements based on how they were tested extensively. To maximize your window installation, we make sure to follow each of the manufacturer’s instructions down to the smallest detail.

    3. Not Making Proper Measurements 

    The rough opening requirements will vary for a typical 2 foot by 3 foot double hung window since it also depends on the manufacturer and the style of the window. Because most windows can be built to fit almost any rough opening size, many manufacturers build “standard” sizes that cost less than custom-built windows. With our services, we measure your home’s rough openings first and provide the right-sized window for your home so you won’t encounter any unusual issues down the road.

    If you’re looking for the best replacement windows in the area, call Renewal by Andersen of San Francisco today! You can contact us at (866) 609-5033 or via our convenient online form. We serve customers in San Francisco and neighboring areas.
