Q: How long do replacement windows last?
Most high-quality windows last 20 to 30 years when properly installed and maintained. Energy-efficient models with insulated frames and Low-E glass provide lasting performance in Pennsylvania’s climate.
Q: Are your windows energy-efficient?
Yes. Our windows are designed to reduce drafts, maintain consistent indoor temperatures, and lower energy bills. Features like double or triple panes, insulated frames, and specialized coatings make them ideal for year-round efficiency.
Door Replacement Questions

We install entry doors, patio doors, and storm doors. Each option can be customized for design, color, finish, and hardware. Whether you want to boost security, add elegance, or create a better indoor-outdoor connection, we have a solution.
Q: How do I know if my door needs replacement?
Signs include drafts, visible warping or cracking, difficulty opening or closing, outdated style, or locks that no longer secure properly. If your door is costing you energy or compromising safety, it’s time for an upgrade.
Q: Do new doors really improve energy efficiency?
Yes. Modern doors include insulated cores, advanced weatherstripping, and tight seals that keep air from escaping. This helps reduce heating and cooling costs while improving comfort.
Siding Installation Questions
Q: What siding materials do you offer?
We install vinyl siding, composite siding and insulated siding. Each has unique advantages—vinyl is affordable and low-maintenance, composite is extremely durable and can have a wood-grain look or stone appearance. Insulated siding adds thermal protection.
Q: How long does siding last?
Vinyl siding typically lasts 20–40 years, while composite can last 50 years or more with proper care. Insulated siding provides the added benefit of energy efficiency throughout its lifespan.
Q: Can new siding improve my home’s value?
Yes. Siding replacement is one of the top home improvement projects in terms of return on investment. It boosts curb appeal, increases durability, and makes your property more attractive to potential buyers.
