 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Scott DeWitt is the absolute 100% reason for my review being 5 stars instead of 3. He was a great installer, timely, respectful, genuine, and did the job right. Everything else unrelated to his work wasn’t all that impressive. Thanks Scott for the top tier work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We discovered this company while visiting relatives in Ohio. Since our initial contact to replace two sets of French Doors, the entire process has been exceptional, simple, and the products are of the highest quality (while not the priciest in the market!) No hesitation to recommend this company to anyone.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Keith came out to review and quote our project. He was timely and informative. Then Thomas came out to install the windows - he was early (AWESOME), polite, completed the task quickly, and cleaned up after himself. We are happy with our windows too - they look great. We'll definitely work with this team again on our future window projects.

Homeowners have many options when shopping for replacement windows. The experts at WMGB Home Improvement can help you choose the best products for your home. Here is an overview of three popular window frame materials and their benefits.

Vinyl

Vinyl is perhaps the most popular window material. This is due, in large part, to its high value and low cost. It has good resistance against heat transfer and offers superior insulation. It is affordable and strong, and provides exceptional energy savings. With moderate to high R-values, it helps reduce heating and cooling costs. This window material is scratch-resistant and is easy to clean. You don’t need special cleaning tools to keep your windows in pristine condition.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass is becoming more accepted as a window frame material. People initially thought that fiberglass lacked strength and resistance to extreme temperatures. Today, these myths have been disproved, and fiberglass is now a popular alternative to vinyl. Fiberglass is moisture resistant, so it doesn’t rot, corrode or shrink and swell.

Unlike vinyl, fiberglass is easy to paint, giving you a lot of aesthetic freedom. It comes in a wide variety of custom, color-through colors. Fiberglass windows can also hold larger glass areas better than vinyl replacement windows.

Wood

Wood is a popular material for custom window jobs that require unique designs. Wood, when painted, can match any home exterior color. It needs regular painting, though, to avoid chipping and exposure that can lead to rot. Wood windows add value and traditional appeal to homes.

Compared to aluminum and plastic windows, wooden ones provide better overall insulation. A wood frame does not attract condensation as a metal frame does. Wood also has the smallest coefficient of expansion among all window frame materials.
