There are lots of questions you’ll have to answer when you are in the process of getting hurricane windows in Fort Lauderdale, FL. You’ll decide on style, color, hardware, and many other things. Once all of that is in place, you might have questions to ask about the installation. After all, it could be the first time you’ve gone through a window installation on a house. You need to know what to expect so you can plan ahead for the process. Here are some basic questions and answers to get you started with the information you need. But, of course, feel free to ask your professionals any further questions you have.
How Long Will Installation Go On?
You can count on each window taking about half an hour to install. You can do the math from there, depending on how many windows you have. Keep in mind that this only is true if no issues arise. If the installers, for example, pull out a window and find something that needs to be fixed around that space before a new window can go in, the timing will be lengthened. You can talk to your installer about the exact time range they expect the job to take.
Will There Be A Big Mess?
Putting in hurricane windows isn’t a clean job. Installers are as careful as they can be, and they clean up the big things and don’t leave those behind. But there’s demo involved in the project so there’s going to be dust floating around and settling in the house. You can count on doing some vacuuming and dusting once the installation is complete.
Do I Need To Be Home?
You don’t necessarily have to be there for the whole installation process. Someone does need to be on hand to let the installers in, of course. But if you are able to be around, it’s always best. Perhaps work from home for a day or take a personal day. If the installers have questions or if they run into an issue and need to show you something, being there will help the project proceed more smoothly.
Do I Need To Prepare Anything?
Yes. Your installers will likely provide you with a list of things to do before they arrive so they can get right to work when they do get there. You can count on things like taking down pictures and anything else on the walls, removing the window coverings, moving furniture out of the way, and other such things that can help them get to the windows with ease.
