 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.

In terms of efficiency and performance, replacement windows have come a long way. Today, modern windows offer high-energy ratings, protection from the heat and the cold, and a whole slew of other advanced features. While all these improvements have certainly benefited homeowners who aim to build a better home, they did create unexpected challenges.

The sheer volume of replacement window options can be easily overwhelming, especially if you have not yet set solid objectives to guide your project. One way to overcome this is to understand the qualities that make for a good window.

ENERGY STAR® Ratings

ENERGY STAR® is the standard when it comes to measuring the energy efficiency of home improvement products, including windows. Different materials will have different ratings. It’s up to you to decide which ones are best suited for your specific needs. Feel free to ask our consultants about the recommended ratings to optimize the efficiency of your home.

Single, Double and Triple-Pane Windows

Window performance can depend on its panes. Single-pane windows are, by far, the least efficient, offering little to no thermal insulation from the outdoors. On the other hand, choosing between double- and triple-pane variants can be tricky. Double-pane windows are usually the standard, but in some situations, a triple-pane window might be the better choice.

Low-E Coatings

The glass used in window products are often coated with a low-e layer. This is true for all types and styles of window, whether it’s a large picture window or a small egress window. This coat helps reflect heat from the sun and keeps your interiors cooler in the summer.

At WMGB Home Improvement, we offer high quality replacement windows suitable for all types of homes.
