Here’s How a Good Window Warranty Works

Window warranties can often be misunderstood by homeowners, especially if they find out that their warranty doesn’t cover all aspects of their replacement windows. It’s partially the reason why they have the term “Limited Lifetime” in their warranties, so it doesn’t hurt to ask the right questions first before you proceed with purchasing your energy-efficient windows.

Limited Lifetime Warranty Explained

These warranties are commonly offered by professional window contractors. They’re often provided by the manufacturers and cover defects in regard to the aesthetics and performance of your purchased window.

A Limited Lifetime Warranty may only apply to the parts that need to be replaced, so it doesn’t readily include the labor required to fix the window. This will also vary between replacement window manufacturers, so it helps to ask your sales representative to understand how their window warranty will work.

The Duration of the Warranty Coverage

Common warranty lengths typically include 5, 10, 15 and 20 years. The length of your warranty will also depend on the type of installation you’re having done. For example, a warranty for glass and a warranty for roofing materials will typically be different. If you’re installing multiple products, such as roofing and windows, be sure to discuss the exact coverage of each product with your hired contractor.

Hiring the Right Contractor

It’s important that you research and find out what types of replacement windows best fit your home. This includes knowing the architectural style of your home to narrow down your choices. And, as for finding the right contractor, it’s recommended that you go for companies that have a good reputation in your area, so you can be confident that they’ll get the job done right.

"I'm getting ready to do my 2nd round of window installation with Anderson Windows. I really appreciate the great financing options that they offer! They have top notch sales and installation experts who are very kind and considerate of their customers' wishes. The windows I have installed look great and I am so excited to get the next group of windows put in. My house looks so much brighter with my new windows. I definitely recommend Renewal by Andersen of St. Louis."

"We recently contracted with Renewal by Andersen to replace 5 windows in our home. First of all, we were very delighted that the time from contract to installation was less than two months. Joel and Craig arrived precisely at the agreed-upon time and spent less than four hours from start to completion of installation, including time to demonstrate opening/closing the windows and any questions we had. We were very pleased with the knowledge and professionalism of Joel and Craig, and, of course, we’re very pleased with the windows and how nice they look. We definitely recommend Renewal by Andersen."

"I replaced my front door and several windows. The install team did a great job with installation and clean up. Even covered floors and stairs. The team was very courteous and did a very professional job. Now our windows look great and we love our new door. I would recommend Renewal by Anderson in a heartbeat."
