HGTV, Pinterest, and Youtube have delighted DIY (do-it-yourself) enthusiasts and have seemingly made home remodels easy to tackle. 

While baking and home decorating may be a good DIY project, the burning question on Florida homeowner minds is whether it’s a good idea to DIY window replacement.

You’ve likely heard the idiom, “You can’t have your cake and eat it too!”

Getting the best of both worlds sometimes seems like an unattainable goal, but when it comes to your windows, you CAN have the best of both worlds with tinted AND hurricane, impact resistant windows! 

Window and door shopping shouldn’t be a one and done deal. It should be carefully considered and thoroughly researched.

The trouble comes when you shop for newer, replacement installations without a plan, or at the very least an idea, of what is best suited to your needs.

Most building professionals understand the impact and importance of using quality, high-performance materials. 

Energy efficient appliances and installations are in high demand because they’re designed to reduce energy bills, improve residential comfort, and are better for the environment. 

Did you know you can save money while minimizing your energy waste just by using certain materials to build or remodel your home?

The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) generates sustainable practices, tools and guidelines that enhance personal and environmental health.

Severe storms, including tropical storms and hurricanes, can be severe and unpredictable, packing a powerful punch when they blow through towns.

Thanks to weather radar and other technology, meteorologists are able to better predict their weather patterns and paths, but sometimes they still form out of nowhere.

If you’re in the market for new windows and doors, you have more than likely spent an ample amount of time researching the perfect options for your home and probably have spent quite a bit more time looking for a reputable window and door dealer to learn more about your installation options.

As technology advances, so do the materials contractors are using to build.

We’re shifting to a greener, more sustainable environment, which is evident in nearly every aspect of our culture including home building materials.  

From consumers to manufacturers, we all want to do what’s right and environmentally safe for the planet.

The materials used for your home builds matter,  from flooring to windows, especially in Florida’s extreme heat. Windows are a structural part of a home and have  potential to enhance the home’s energy efficiency and reduce homeowner’s energy consumption.

Hurricanes and severe weather are  inevitable occurrences for Floridians. Homeowners throughout the state know the importance of protecting their entryways, windows and doors.
