 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 the middle of winter, you want your home to keep heat from your furnace, boiler, or heat pump inside for maximum comfort and energy efficiency. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case—many homes waste as much as 30% of their heat!

Where is all that heat going? Here’s how the average house tends to lose heat—do any of the following sound familiar to you?

Ceilings, walls, and floors: 30%

Poor insulation levels and air leaks are responsible for the majority of energy loss in a home.

Ducts: 15%

Duct leaks can waste energy from your heating system before it ever reaches the rooms of your house!

Fireplace: 15%

If your fireplace has a broken or missing damper, you could be letting heat escape all winter.

Plumbing: 15%

The holes where plumbing pipes enter and exit the living spaces of your home are often where air leaks occur.

Windows: 10%

If your home’s windows are old, with single pane glass or tiny air leaks, they could be costing you in energy waste.

Doors: 10%

Did you know that an ⅛” gap under an exterior door can let as much heat escape as a 2½ inch hole in the wall?

Fans/Vents: 5%

Just like the area around plumbing pipes, sloppy fan and vent installation in your ceiling and walls is often responsible for heat-wasting air leaks.
