Home Window Replacement Project

You’ve decided to invest in new windows, and installation day is almost here. Some homeowners are a little nervous about what to expect during the window replacement, so here are some tips for preparing for window installations.

Be Flexible

Delays can happen when picking up materials, so if your window installation contractors don’t show up exactly on time, don’t panic. Be flexible and, as a best practice, set aside the entire day for the project.

Protect Your Floors and Furniture

While professional window replacement contractors are very careful not to make a mess, accidents (and an unexpected gust of wind) can happen. Cover floors and furniture with sheets to keep dust off during the window installation.

Clear the Area

As much as possible, move furniture, rugs, and wall décor away from the areas where the windows will be installed. This makes it easier for the window installers and helps to prevent damage.

Make Plans for Pets

Many pets get anxious with all the activity surrounding window installation day. If possible, send them to a boarding facility or a friend’s house for the day. Another option is to keep them locked up in a room away from where the windows are being replaced.

Be Prepared for Some Noise

The window installation process can be loud. If you work from home, try not to schedule meetings during the times the contractors will be working. You may also want to consider wearing noise-dulling headsets.

Dress for the Day

It will be a bit more difficult to control the temperature in your home. Depending on the weather, you’ll want to keep a sweater nearby or, perhaps, purchase and run a couple of fans.
