Get a handyman to re-caulk or insulate her windows -- lchoro 10/22/2020 6:06PM
That % seems crazy high, IMO. Obviously depends on the value of the home -- reestuart 10/22/2020 5:06PM
For a $300,000 home, windows would be $36,000? Are you kidding? ** -- HokiesBill48 10/22/2020 4:54PM
At $500/window, that would 72 windows. We need to move a decimal. -- HokiesBill48 10/22/2020 5:03PM
We all live in glass houses, lol. ** -- Guy LeDouche 10/22/2020 7:46PM
The cheaper window replacements are inserts. Were they proposing inserts? -- Guy LeDouche 10/22/2020 2:24PM
Do inserts end up having a smaller glass area then original? -- Hokie360 10/22/2020 3:05PM
Yep, they are smaller. You don’t notice on the larger windows. -- Guy LeDouche 10/22/2020 5:47PM
Never thought about it in terms of % of home value. Our house is small but -- HokieNoVA 10/22/2020 2:21PM
That's exactly what she is looking at # wise -- Burruss Writer 10/22/2020 3:57PM
I know nothnig about replacement windows, but I'd dang sure-> -- HOKIERIT 10/22/2020 6:48PM
If they need replacing and you don't do it, come time to sell you'll be -- VT Pez4Life 10/22/2020 1:40PM
I would never pay for windows to try and get the house sold. Almost no -- reestuart 10/22/2020 3:57PM
I need to clarify. I'm saying if you try and sell and they need replacing -- VT Pez4Life 10/22/2020 4:00PM
I see your point, but an inspector won't site that as a reason. At least -- reestuart 10/22/2020 4:06PM
Windows are kinda overrated as an energy efficiency upgrade -- Tafkam Hokie 10/22/2020 2:29PM
Excellent post...As an engineer of ours always says, "A window is a hole -> -- HOKIERIT 10/22/2020 6:53PM
They made a huge difference with noise reduction when I replaced. -- Stork 10/22/2020 2:35PM
Now that I could see. If you go from a single pane to a double or triple -- Tafkam Hokie 10/22/2020 2:53PM
I think there's a tax credit too. Energy efficient. -- Stork 10/22/2020 1:26PM
Get other estimates - Anderson likely is going to be the most expensive ** -- Hokie Koooster 10/22/2020 1:04PM
Another trick...find out who window co.s & local box stores sub out to... -- JoesterVT 10/22/2020 1:34PM
And the install cost is not what it costs to install -- Vienna_Hokie 10/22/2020 4:03PM
Not true...Anderson has a replacement line called Renewal that well priced -- Vienna_Hokie 10/22/2020 1:11PM
I'd probably rate her future time in the house as the bigger factor. -- Late 80s Hokie 10/22/2020 1:02PM
I did a full replacement on my last house that also included two sliding -- Vtskier1 10/22/2020 12:41PM
It'll cost relatively more on a lower priced home -- lchoro 10/22/2020 12:26PM
They don't allow vinyl replacement windows? What are the other options? -- HokieSignGuy 10/22/2020 12:46PM
No, no real restrictions ** -- Burruss Writer 10/22/2020 3:54PM
Area is moving more toward rental market -- Burruss Writer 10/22/2020 12:35PM
Where does she live? ** -- HokieDan95 10/22/2020 12:24PM
